The male-hunter female gatherer dichotomy is an anthropological myth used to reinforce gender stereotypes.

Interesting read, still leaves a lot of stuff unanswered but some aspects were crazy, like when they said that they found remains buried with weapons and just assumed it was a male, until someone looked at the bones and found the opposite. Like isn't that your job to check things before making assumptions?

The field of Anthropology has gone through some WILDLY problematic periods. So-called "scientific racism" is a big one but shallow assumptions about historical cultures based on current-day social norms was very common.

This explains the rough student-teacher ratios out there. /s

90% of 40 player raids are absolute nightmares. This is not right.

But imagine if you grew up with and struggled alongside those 40 plays for your whole life.

FFXIV added 24 player hard raids called “chaotic raids” that’s absolutely a nightmare. They have a few 48 player raids that are more midcore content that works well, but 24 is super common and works well for other casual content. But most midcore/hardcore raids are 8 player, and that feels like a good spot.

Agreed. The sweet spot was ten man raids. You know everyone is pulling their weight. With 40 half the raid was slacking since those bosses didn’t need a lot of coordination.

I think the 20man mythic is the perfect place when you add in game balance considerations.

15 player original UBRS was where it was at
