No no, the scam artists and the wife beaters were the GenXers, these are millennials.

It definitely felt like Pat was over-complicating the rotation explanation in regards to "how many buttons do you press in a cycle" or whatever.

That's because Woolie needs over-complication to enjoy things (see Arkham Asylum, which he completely botched all understanding of the combat even though it's dead simple and explicitly designed to make being batman feel as easy as breathing).

This is why you play RDM, it’s like the easiest rotation in the game.

jobs have a bunch of skills that do things and chain into each other and build resources and spend them, when you do that good that's a rotation

I remember back in FFXI that the RDM and BRD rotations were so loving easy that I automated them with the ingame macro system and just watched tv while the group was grinding.

Heck yeah. RDM really helped me enjoy the game more. Not only do I love the style and aesthetic, but before I was Black Mage and coming back to the game after months long hiatuses was hell to relearn how to play the job properly each time.

MCH is simple but ita also intense. That's a clqss that pushes a lot of buttons very fast

Healers have very simple buttons, especially white mage. The complexity is all in the content and how good your team is. I really like healing in 14 cause it keeps things varied and you feel super important. Pat mentions the meta of healing as little as possible to maximise dps and that poo poo is enthralling.

Also whm at least has some really fun nukes. AF Misery might be the single best button in the game.

Getting through an instance without touching your gcd heals is an incredible feeling.

You can also just kick a boiler and die of a heart attack and lose twenty minutes of progress in Disco, so whatever helps the playthrough I guess.

it's disapointing because one of the themes is 'life is loving up and getting over it'. Saying a dumb thing is not supposed to taint your character so much that you need to reload. lol at trying to play Harry as some kind of perfect guy.
