Play poll: No Open world vs Instanced world?

[syntaxlies]

I would love for some open world dungeons. I feel the SH's are pretty much that but could really be expanded on(im sure in 2.0 they will be). As far as the best loot in game goes I prefer it to come from instanced primal or dungeons as it has been. Im not so much in favor of the zerg fest that would b used to acquire loot in an open world area.

There's room in this game for both.

I think SE has their plans in place and suspect they wont make everything instanced. Seems to me they are set on this and I'm OK with it.

there is, that is true, I've stated I don't want them to remove instanced, but I don't want this game to be instanced heavy.

I don't happen to pay attention to usernames for the most part. I didn't this time. Maybe you could stop making posts and topics that are dumb?

That would be mostly impossible for him to do... I normally see a thread and then look over to see who made it. If the name says Rokien it is normally best to skip or you can go in and wait because it will mostly turn into a flame warz... lol

Sorry Rokien its nothing actually against you it happens with anyone that push for something one way or the other... You don't want all instanced stuff... but some don't want all open world stuff... and since you humans can never totally see eye to eye or really compromise with each other this will always come to pass...

The cat is bemused =-.-=

This is my gripe with open world. They become zerg fests because it's hard to control who comes in, in what numbers, and at what level. Meanwhile, everything that can be done in the open world can be reproduced in an instanced fashion, where the experience can be a little more closely controlled so that it doesn't become a stupid skill-less loot grab.

Well, the only reason it's not popular is because people outlevel it so fast. It's a really beautiful and fun dungeon, I still go back there sometimes on my lower level jobs.

The only reason it's fun is because it's not popular. The moment they put something of value in an open world dungeon it becomes a grating camp fest.

Oh, You are fine ^.^
The thing is, is the producer is pushing it heavy one way.

I've seen post in the forums for people organizing 30+ people to go for gold coffers, which I'm fine with if that's how people wanna do it. Good luck deciding who gets the keys. But if there was any loot worth a damn in there I'd be kinda annoyed that it could be obtained this method. Instances are balanced so that the people who are able to beat it and get all the loot earned it the intended way(as long as its not bugged)

I am 100% in agreement. The game needs less instanced dungeons, and more open-world dungeons.

EDIT:
I'm still for instanced dungeons, don't get me wrong...I just don't always like the cookie-cutter layout of "RUN TO BOSS 1, RUN TO BOSS 2, WIN!"

Sometimes, as a player who actually likes to explore a virtual world, I want to see the sights of Eorzea. I loved running around Shposhae as a level 50. Sure, there wasn't a single thing in there I actually used, aside from the Lone Coeurl's sexy eye patch...I still liked exploring an area that had some life to it.
