    More raids, raids, raids...

    More raids, raids, raids... thats what I read in 1.19 pre-letter patch notes.

    I wonder if this will be limited by party size (4/4) again ? we are 2-3 members linkshell and we cant afford this low raid whatever dungeon thats in game since 1.18. Yet more raids are coming in.


    Another thing that I wonder about is Ifrit battle level 30 and 50, Ifrit seems like a strong guy. Yet party of 30 can beat him as well ? Should not there be something "else" for these 30ranks at this time ? Hm. (Ifirit battle 30 - 4/4 , Ifrit battle 50 - 8/8)


    btw, why so many new raids, what is FF turning to ? I am not sure if raids are the right direction for FFXIV, but well. People like speed runs so I guess it is. It is no content for me tho, I am only one... *censored:P* will come out not so far since today I hope, so meh anyway.

    You are not the only one

    I am for not instanced content.

    Edit: I like the raids but I don't want them to concentrate only on instanced stuff. I want to see the open public dungeon first.

    If you paid attention the 1.19 Notes list atleast 4 new raids, maybe 5 if you count Ifrit.

    Also. Every FF Ever has had Raids. They are called "Dungeon Crawls" Yoshi simply uses modern MMO terminology for them.

    Remember when you had to dig down the northern crater to fight sephiroth? Raid.

    I have to thank Square-Enix for the amazing job they have done recreating Final Fantasy XIV from Scratch. Especially the inclusion of Missing Genders which we petitioned for in good faith. This was proof to us players that the Developers are truly Sympathetic to our requests and that being honest and vocal can pay off with the amazing characters we have who are Female Roegadyn, Male Miqote, and Female Highlanders. Thank You SE, Thank You Community Team, Thank You Yoshi-P.

    Raid is just another word for instance, which is nothing new to an FF mmo. Limbus, Dynamis, Salvage, ENM, BC/KS/ISNM, Assault, Einherjar...all familiar instances to FFXI players.

    People have been desperate for content since launch, open world NMs werent enough, open world sidequests werent enough, open world main scenario quests werent enough, seeing a pattern here?

    But did you really read the patch notes? If you did, you would have seen that they are also adding quite a bit of open world content. More NMs, treasure chests for anyone's taking, and caravan escorts to name a few.

    EDIT: Also, they haven't even changed the zones yet. I'm sure they are waiting to do that before really going wild with open world content. Why would they want to add a ton of open world stuff only to have to re-do it all once they change the zones?

    10/14/11 - FFXIV community civil war erupts. "I'm paying and the game is gonna be awesome." VS. "I'm leaving and the game is gonna die." Let the battles begin!

    If all you got from the letter from the producer is 'raids' then you really need to improve your reading skills. There was a few mentions, but you clearly missed everything else; quests, transport systems, better tutorials, beast tribes, materia, the list goes on and you decide you want to moan about something.

    Can I have you stuff?

    so far even a short conversation in quests is kinda instanced, every single bit is instanced. i've never seen so much instanced stuff before in an mmo. It's a very stupid approach imo and an immersion killer. It feels as if they ran out of ideas in a lot of ways. And on top we have the many limitations like crystal tools etc. ... i'm not sure how this is gonna turn out but i don't have the best feelings, even though some updates were ok so far and improved the game but i don't think they are changing their direction with instances...
