More 8 man dungeons?

[Dualgunner]

If it's not a raid that has loot, it's gonna get some unskippable cutscenes. That's been made apparent after that whole fiasco of msq. Nobody wants that happening a second, third or fourth time. In past Tokyo interviews over the last couple years, they've already stated they're not doing any more 8 man dungeons for MSQ related content. Doesn't make sense for dungeons since we already have the 4 man. Raid is 8 man with loot for DF. Trials have 8 man with loot. Alliance is 24 man, so that's out of the question. So it comes back to only one possibility, which is MSQ with no loot (which means unskippable cutscenes again).

It really doesn't mean unskippable cutscenes again. There's nothing inherent about an 8 man dungeon besides being a dungeon that takes 8 people to do, and even regarding story in dungeons (4 man dungeons used to have long cutscenes during them--Toto Rak took a while introducing its final boss as an example. "But you can skip that cutscene!" You've been on this forum since 2014, you know very well that MSQ was skippable at one point too) they've been largely relegated to pre- and post-dungeon.

EDIT: Also there are plenty of 8 man trials with no loot. There are even 4 man trials with no loot. But no, it's impossible for them to vary it up at all.
