I don't need to look too hard to find people in XIV that were salty that the Eden fights were beaten in a day or so. Conversely, I've felt the common concept of a raid where you have a dungeon with various bosses you bang your head against one for weeks to get a couple pieces of gear just to repeat the process on the next until you finally beat the dungeon to be dumb, too. Just don't be a dumbass and confuse my stance for accessibility to not require effort. Rather, I'm anti stupid gates and excessive time sinks.
