If even one of you gets a post removed during one of these bit struggle sessions you failed the bit and should feel immense shame. Doing a bit successfully is Praxis.
Find things to struggle about that doesn’t get out of hand. It’s important to let off some steam now and again but do it in a way that doesn’t harm your fellow comrades or add work to the mod team.
I’ll start: Some beans are better than other beans. Like kidney beans are bad nasty icky beans but black beans are actually amazing.
Final Fantasy X-2 is unironically one of the best FF titles in terms of gameplay. The combat is fast and frenetic, there are tons of strategies to find within the job system, you can explore the world in any order from the get-go and 50% of the game’s content is side content that rewards exploring the game’s locations and talking to all the NPCs, which means that a lot of the interesting bits of the story get told to you incidentally as you explore. Every other FF game made you play through 80% if the story before they gave you an airship, but X-2 cuts out the BS and gets straight to the good part.

I don’t think the beautiful slow-paced story full of mystery and wonder and discovery is “BS” that needed to be cut out, so I guess there’s the core of the disagreement
