Let's discuss how the hardcoreness of the game will affect casuals

So let me start this off by saying i would probably be classified as a "casual" gamer. i'm not very casual, i try to raid and experrience most content, and i play a reasonable amount, just don't raid several times a week. And as such i know i will never reach the most exciting cutting-edge content. I knowi will never hold dat pink artifact gun in my rocky hands, and i know i'm missing out. So completely ignoring the fact that the game being super hard is great for the hardcore, let's have alook at how it affects me and other people who won't ever get to the top:

-Less content. We will see less content, compared to if they made all the bosses beatable by bad groups. But is that necessarily a bad thing? It's not like there won't be content or us, and if you feel like it the raids will always be there for you to slam your head into.

-Motivation and badassery will be much greater. If we could all get artifact weapons, then they would be nothing special. I know i won't ever have one, but every time i see a badass raider walking by with one i will know what i'm fighting for. I will never get there, but for me that's a great motivation to keep trying. To know that there's something beyond your reach is good.

-Lot's of other ways, and that's what i would like to discuss.

TL;DR: **Purely from the casual gamers perspective** how will the hardcore mentality of this game affect us.Is this such a bad thing to not see all the content? Maybe it is? Maybe the motivation and epic fell of there being something to strive for is good for us aswell? In what other ways do you see this affecting us?

I know this post is slightly biased but i would like to hear everyones views on this :D
