Only one complaint, apparentely (from this video): no new mob models (i presume the 'Ogre' in the end is the boss). :(

Its not a new zone, they don't need new models added yet.

What I don't want to see:
A dungeon here... A dungeon there... 3 more come September. This is way to typical in MMOs these days.

What I hope to see:
Something done very well in FFXI, make the dungeon, 1 tier toward a larger expansion. Meaning... in FFXI, this dungeon would be level 1 of 100, where you are earning points, acquiring gear, learning about the environment through story. *cough* Assault?.

I hope to god they do something like assault/nyzul for Grand Companies.

That was something FFXI was lacking. You do a quest with a full party, then in the cutscenes you're all alone.

I like where this seems to be going.

8000 dmg... omg..

I'm very excited about all the players in a party being shown in the cutscenes. I have always wanted this and hope for more in the future. The combat looks a little clunky to me still, but maybe it's more enjoyable to play than watch. I think a little more action in the combat wouldn't kill anyone. (Maybe not crazy jumping, but how about a dodge? How about some force fields or grabbing a part of a mob to hold it or stop it, etc. It kind of feels like the auto attack is going to leave me with some down time that I could be doing something productive with.)

and more narrow corridor paths, lol! top it off with a 60 minute time limit and no risk vs. reward system = "who would even play this?!"

i guess they can still hide behind the ps3 ram limitations lol....
