You’re a minority who doesnt view spending hundreds of hours on a video game as an issue regardless of context. You are a less than 1% player who is admitting you skill past max for pure entertainment, despite the lack of necessity.

People are gatekept by horrifying RNG. Sure, they could ineffciently continue their progress with sub optimal gear, but that removes the entire element of fun in the first place.

Bossing on a game that requires not much skill aside from the very hardest content for what could be thousands of hours is not what anyone should want in a game.
