It's the same formula across the board for multiple genres, video games, literature, or movies. You never see Picard/Luke/Dynasty Warrior hero of choice/Link/Name your own hero spending an entire episode/game/book dealing with one measly peon. Why? Because it's not epic, and it's boring as hell.

dynamis was boring as hell? maybe to some but it was alot diferent than the hurr durr aoe aoe aoe aoe o only boss left aoe aoe aoe anyway

XIV will never have epic fights, it will have good ones and some that require some tactics, but not ever epic. Nore was XI ever ever ever in anyway Epic.

God of War is Epic...

God this is pointless. Everyone has opinions on what is "Epic" I for one think the XI end game content was just fine. I did not play wow but I did play LOTRO, and it was too easy to get gear. I want goals, and SE can deliver once they fix the game, right now.... not so much.

On what basis do you think it will never be epic? Because the game itself? Or SE's inability to provide meaningful content?

PRICELESS!

Your point would be alot more valid if it wasnt for the fact nukes suck damage wise compared to melees focusing on one mob. You can quote me on this, as a mage that does end game. Dotting still does more damage than nukes do

exactly, cool camera angles, amazing sound effects and strictly strategic battles are what makes games epic these days, they have to resemble movies.

Everyone has their own opinion/definition of what Epic is.

Epic is watership down

what ever you can do with 40 people i can do alone, remember the whole point to ffxiv solo = group.
you can reach the cap to lv50 alone and most likely future cap's , i bet there gonna do it with end game as well. MMO's are made for noobs now the second of it being remotely challenging people are gonna whine and say the game sucks then go away, SE just wants money more people more money so there making it where anyone can get to the top with out effort.

every MMO that you used need skill to finsh things they tossed it out the window now every thing is bum rush and win, hardcore dont exist anymore.
