That my good friend is a damn sexy screenshot.

Nald's Santuary.... It's pretty and all and I liked finding it. I am surprised not so many on here have found his or his brother's temple. the brother god's temple is near the entrance to black shroud from thanalan.

Not true though.

FFXI called any area that wasn't "Open World" a Dungeon, this included things like Maze of Shakrami, Castle Oz, Temple O, etc.

Basically anything you couldn't take a Chocobo into was a Dungeon.

Looks cool. Doesn't look like wow. Looks like ff14. i'm on board.

That's not a dungeon, it's Nald's Reflection, a shrine northwest of Camp Broken Water. The monster it's just a mole.

That's right, you are told about this from a NPC @ Golden Bazaar. This shrine is exactly the same as Nald's one (hate to say, but well... copy/paste...) but obviously there's a large statue of Thal with the sword. It's called Thal's Respite.

Shouldn't be surprising given that the original game install wanted about 20 gigs of your HDD in the first place.

The game is only 9.5gb, and about 3gb is just gears, mobs, spells, weapons. Then about 2/3rds of that is still unacceptable to us lol.

You seem to have narrowed down the definition of dungeon in a way that is very wrong to an old school gamer like myself. Dungeons existed in FFXI when there were no instances. Not too long ago the terms "dungeon" and "instanced dungeon" referred to two different things. I don't think it's safe to assume that the FFXIV development team, when referring to "dungeons" are limiting themselves to instanced content, though in the context of the upcoming dungeons it's very likely they will be instanced.
