Boss encounters from other MMOs

[Errors]

Love how people always use this line lol. Your experience =/= the only experience people had with the fight as that's what I always figure when someone claims people don't remember stuff "properly".

I believe that's my point, a different opinion. When people claim X was better than Z, it all comes down to personal experience and memory of that event. What I find funny are the people claiming that one thing was better than another as fact rather than that personal opinion and will fight tooth and nail to try and convince people who don't agree with them.

However, I do have to state my comment isn't off the mark that much, some of the fights folks have listed in this thread didn't bring any new mechanic to the table. FFXI for one, a game I played for many years (started at NA release, stopped when they raised level cap past 75), fights were very tank and spank, add control, or simply throw bodies at it boss fights. The pace of the game of course was much slower, but the mechanics of the fights were nothing ground breaking or awe inspiring. What FFXI did have for it, is a very in depth story line, but even that was built over the years and not after just a couple of months. The sad thing is I personally didn't find the storyline all that engaging or memorable compared to the other Final Fantasy games I've played.
