Content Finder

[Rousseau]

Oh really ?

Ah, what a wonderful way to begin...

As someone above said nobody is forcing anyone to use this.

Of course if everyone does start to rely on it then it means people want to use it.

Wrong. People do what they feel they need to in order to compete. That is how people think. Create a free-for-all, and people take the easiest road, which is not necessarily the best for the entire group. Just because people want something does not mean they should be allowed to have it.

Sounds good to me, I am in favour of MMO's that are gear progressive, people in my LS have been wanting to do In to the Dark for months now and nobody is interested in going in there, this is exactly why a dungeon finder would be helpful.

...

I used to play WoW also I'm not fooling myself like you though that the reason I left had anything to do with the dungeon finder, the game has just become old and boring that's all.

See, this attitude is the very kind that I wish would stay in WoW and not begin to infect FFXIV. We don't need things that are going to make it easy for this sort of thinking and behavior to spread around and be rewarded.

Also, if you are having trouble getting help from your LS, maybe you should join another. We're allowed to be a member of eight, so it's not like you can't try to find another that contains people who are interested in doing what you want. Just like in FFXI, people had an LS for each kind of activity they wanted to engage in, and now you can see the chatter of all of them at once. If that doesn't work, wait for the merge and learn to be content with what you do have.

SE don't need any help with that I assure you, just check out the primal loot system.

Loot systems do not make up an entire encounter. If you think they do, then that is yet another example I shall point to as to the wrong-headed thinking that will destroy this game. "It's all about me and my loot, screw everyone else!" Yeah, no thanks. I'll be over here simply trying to have fun with other people in my community, working together to accomplish similar goals and helping them with whatever I can...because that is what I believe should be at the core of a game like this, and nothing else. Feel free to have a different opinion, but I want nothing to do with it.

The 2.0 servers and game engine are all but finished, I doubt Yoshi-p will go back on this now.

If Blizzard is capable of adding and removing features each patch, then SE can do it before a new client is released. It's not that difficult. Stop trying to discourage those who actually want an environment that isn't full of sociopathic jerks who do nothing but try to clamor over each other for the next best piece of gear, like people at Walmart do on Black Friday.

All in all, lets have some real content first before we need to worry about weather getting a finder for it will be neccessary or not?

Yoshi-P has already started to talk about it, hence why I brought it up. I think it's better to discuss and consolidate suggestions now, rather than wait until it's completely finished.
