    Yuck. World of Warcraft (I'm not up for it.) Different content, different names, different systems. Raids and dungeons can go to Hell.

    That doesnt make sense. instances have been around before WoW...and i'm sure raiding dungeons/ the name Raid for large party dungeons has been too.

    Similar to when a SWAT team carries out a raid on a building, you go in with a large team. Thats all raid means when it comes to dungeons: Assaulting with a large team. And as far as dungeons go...well thats obvious. Besides, i'm sure they will have official names later, not just called raid dungeons.

    More stupidity. FFXI had instances, dontcha-know.

    I say bring on raid content in conjunction with lots of overworld content too, which is apparently exactly what Yoshida intends to do.

    FFXI was NEVER dull enough to release cut and dry "raids and instances". You mean Assault? Einherjar? Nyzul Isle? Salvage? Each has its own set of systems, unique name, and unique theme. They aren't like wow crap.

    Let's compare the year 2000 to the year 2666, you know, since we're comparing the future to what's already happened and all.

    I think the fact that they even keep calling it "raids" and "dungeons" Like 90% of MMOs takes away from what we are used to in FFXI, unique names and rules.

    When i hear "raid" i hear kill mobs til back room and kill boss...which is done in so many MMOs, its like a cliche.

    Einherjar, ZNM, Dynamis- you go to a dungeon, kill stuff, and there's a boss! Collect stuff to unlock more dungeons and more bosses!

    Honestly,if your in such a twist about the names, you can call it "adventure!" Or "splunking!" But in the end, you are doing the same thing, and are only asking to be deluded.

    Here, how about we call it "Dungeon Crawling"? Wow people don't crawl, and its nice and nostalgic!
