Timers are not fun…. Should be removed from all content immediately…. If I wanted to race a timer I’d play a racing game..

Fun is subjective. What's not fun to one isn't not fun to all. Some timers are definitely fun. Others not so much. I disagree that all timers should be removed from the game. This game definitely needs timers. They just need to be implemented correctly.

Bad take. Timers are fun, especially on exotic missions. For something like a GM, they are essentially pointless, but timers are just another facet of difficulty that isn’t inherently ARTIFICIAL, as unlike artificial difficulty (tankier enemies, etc) timers put a focus on player skill and player intelligence (build crafting and ability to use a build)

That is utter BS, bruh. Most of the encounters now are gated by mechanics - you can't speed up how much time or reduce the number of steps they take to complete. You wanna put a timer on it fine, but either make it a realistic goal or make it have zero impact on the activity. There is no in between option.

Clarification and explanation are not the same thing. Do not coddle your own fancy by deluding yourself into such a belief. It is clear when you say “Timers are not fun” but it does little to explain why you hold such a notion. I am not a fool by which you can so easily dismiss and insult by such a statement.
-
“the action of making a statement or situation less confused and more comprehensible.” “a statement or account that makes something clear.” Both would be perfectly fine in this context… it’s such a simple, clear statement! Timers are not fun! Perhaps not quite as erudite as you think you are!
