I'm a relatively new player, been at it for three or four months now. I mostly play solo so I'm figuring things out on my own and sometimes it's slow going; I resort to googling things quite often because I don't quite understand what's going on. I've gotten up to MR14. Been unable to beat the MR15 test so far as I'm pretty bad at interceptions.

I finally decided to buckle down and do the New War quest over the weekend and I really enjoyed it. I liked all the different perspectives and switches to game play style, plus the lore and plot line were amazing. I finally understand what's going on in the game. But there were a few places I got stuck so I looked things up and saw how many posts there were by people complaining about the quest line and hating on it.

I found it to be pretty forgiving of an old(er) person whose reflexes, reaction time and visual processing are going to shit. The boss fights weren't that bad, really. Since I solo and haven't gotten anywhere near the kind of strength I see the Steel Path folks putting out when I'm grouped with them during Circuit, the purported tediousness folks were complaining about was just par for the course for how I usually do boss fights: run around like a chicken on fire and get off a shot or two occasionally until it's over. The four hours the quest is supposed to take was more like nine hours for me but all in all it wasn't too bad and I was able to finish it in time for Circuit.

Then I hopped into Kahl's Garrison and the first mission I got was Sneaky Sabotage and that was a bit of a slog because I didn't know WTF was going on and the deacons were everywhere. I did finish it, barely. I did the next one yesterday night and did much better. I like the different game mode and having to adapt to different rules of play. But again, I saw tons of people complaining about it during various web searches. I didn't see anyone talking about how they enjoyed either of those scenarios.

Surely there are other people out there that like some or all of this content? Or am I just the weirdo who's about to be downvoted to oblivion?

I liked the quests, but the narmer ciphers are pretty much impossible for me to solve as I have a cognitive disability where I can't tell which node I'm clicking on from left to right. I made a post about it on the forums back then which was promptly ignored by DE, so .. without cipher possibility, I literally can't play the Kahl missions. I know I'm definitely not alone in this out there, so if anyone here has run into the same issue of "Wait, I clicked on the correct one! Oh wait, it was to the left instead of right?" you might have the same issue I'm having. And mind you, being locked out of gameplay because of a disability was really a tough pill to swallow.

I don't have an issue with the ciphers, but I can see how they'd be a problem for someone and I'm really sorry that there isn't an alternative way for you to solve them. My issues when gaming have to do with my hands getting arthritic but I was able to get a custom controller that helps with that. I don't think it would be useful for your issue. That really sucks. Gaming has a long way to go to be fully accessible to everyone.
