So you only like easy games?

"I tend to detach myself from endgame cause I want to come and go as I please without the guilt and responsibilities that comes with that kind of ownage."
So... you do like the easy-mode content then?

Endgame and PvP are the only challenges MMOs offer.

"Not at all. It's just I have a life."
A lot of MMO groups arrange schedules, and if not the sort to do that there tends to be those who PUG.

Are you bad with scheduling?

"Today the event is at noon, next time it'll be evening."
They tend to have endgame content reset either daily or weekly. Such a thing offers guilds the means of setting schedules and PUG types the room to find groups who need additional support.

"In many cases not attending the events will have a member removed."
Then find a casual guild?

Endgame content tends to take a while to update. They pad update times with low drop chances that soon after become outdated material.

"Hours of preparation and standing around waiting, is not what I want to do 7 days a week."
Many games have sped that up, and a lot of guilds do their events one to two days a week.

"Plus I told you, I multi box."
...how many scripts do you use?

Linkshells, clans, guilds. I tend to detach myself from endgame cause I want to come and go as I please without the guilt and responsibilities that comes with that kind of ownage.

As a crafter I love farming for my materials in ffxi.  Then I'll undercut everyone in the auctions in several items. I'll multi box and kill HNM solo and get all the spoils for myself and I'll let it pile up until the right moon phase for a crafting session. Meanwhile everyone else is in line waiting for their turn, doing the same daily chores.

I don't play them as much as I used to. I watch you fools more than I game. But to answer your question, I like games that frustrate the majority. I have Ninja Gaiden Sigma II at 99%. I can't get 100% cause I can't find a partner online good enough to help me do the mission where we fight the 4 great bosses at the same time, and if one of us dies we fail.

I like R - type and other games that are too rough for you.

Black desert like any mmo isn't too hard. The version I play had an easy grind until level 50. Now I'm level 51 and the grind from 50 to 51 took as long as 1 to 50, then dying sucks.

I'm in no rush, when it comes to these games. I have a FFXI account on a private server where my net worth is over 200 million while 96 million is game currency. It's too much time and effort to delete, but I'll check the community there now and then.

Whatever we play, I'm the rich guy.

Endgame is around the clock. Today the event is at noon, next time it'll be evening. In many cases not attending the events will have a member removed. Hours of preparation and standing around waiting, is not what I want to do 7 days a week.

Plus I told you, I multi box. This means I'm playing 2 accounts at the same time, and I kill some mean shit by employing clevar tactics. This is a real challenge Turncoat. 12 to 18 of you on single accounts killing the same bosses is a much easier routine.

"But to answer your question, I like games that frustrate the majority."
Me too, assuming the load time isn't too abusive. If it is... it's a torture of it's own device simply out of testing my patience.

It's why games like "Super Meat Boy" are like crack cocaine to me.

"Black desert like any mmo isn't too hard."
The "MM" portion is why they have to be so easy... or abusive, depending on if it's endgame content or not.

Thankfully PVP isn't as limited in that genre.

"Whatever we play, I'm the rich guy."
That rarely seems worth the effort to me, as so much of that usually requires farming. There's usually a way to make it through the games without being too rich while still enjoying it.

I get bored with endgame. I have done it countless times, half the time it turns into a waste of time for 3 hours cause we'd fail to claim the boss from competition. 

As for scripts, I used to run Ashita to launch the game, and for awhile I used OnEvent which allows the player to write Macros that can issue commands to the alternative character. The GMs and the coder who created Ashita had a fallout, so eventually I lost the ability to use these scripts. So I'd just do it manually with alt+tab.

Commands like /follow makes hauling around characters with ease possible.

With the death of Ashita, my private server moved onto Windower4  Ashita was the best, the GM's obviously are a band of pirate coders so they never minded if we'd use automatic crafting software. After all we did have to full the auction house and build the community from scratch. FFXI cost $12.95 a month, but not on this server, who loves it when people join.

Looks to me like nobody is interested in this.

Oh and in Black Desert, I wouldn't even attempt to box with that. It's action mmorpg. So you can press your luck and Kung fu your way out of a jam if you don't run away.
