You know, the key reason I'm having issue with anyone asking for challenging mobs is that I really am looking forward to flying. Yeah, weird logic jump, but let me explain.

For the past few months there has been an issue in WoW with the devs removing flying from all future new zones, and the forum arguments that erupt out of it. Those that favor the removal of flying are using the EXACT same arguments that people in this thread have used for more challenging enemies. "More danger, makes the world feel real, puts travel back into the game, forces people to interact and play together". I could copy/paste entire posts from that thread here, or this thread there, and they wouldn't seem the slightest bit out of place. The loss of flying in WoW is one of several reasons I won't be returning to that game, and I'm super hyped that my current favorite mmo is adding flying in less than a month.

I know the ISSUE here is completely different, but I'm still hearing the same argument and logic. I hear people with the same opinions, talking about a different topic. It makes me worried about the future. If anyone here ever causes my Fat Chocobo to lose flight, I hope he falls on you with his fat fluffy rear. That'll be the danger in your open world!
