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.
It doesn't have to be the loot hallway type of instance.

Dynamis, Limbus and Salvage were instanced in FFXI, and they weren't loot hallways.

I don't know why people always assume that the word "instance" always means WOW-style dungeons.
