It was fun, fighting my way through, running away screaming as too many crabs aggroed. and finally dying a bit into the second level.

What i enjoyed was sifting my way through with out directions, without expectations of an end point. Without zoning in and bypassing the trip there, or just seeing a cave in the distance and finding more then i bargained for (though they are marked on the map which is somewhat a spoiler but thats ok.)

Maybe its because many people in this thread have done it before, so the only remaining options to discuss is zerg fest spawn camping or instanced loot running, i don't know. But the value i see in having some open world dungeons is having a cave opening with no gate keeper giving it away. Had friends been made, maybe i could have called them and explored with them. But i just HAD to see.

I was thrilled for an out of the blue, no expectations of any real gain, adventure filled dungeon crawl.

So with that said, i don't think open dungeons should have the best loot. i don't much belive they should even have equal loot, i think their value can be in their extencive depth, lacking a time limit. Perhaps containing interesting puzzles to be solved. But most of all, for the adventurous folks like me who just have to see how far this cave goes.
You FOOL. Your not allowed to have fun in these dungeons, or anywhere in this game that is not instanced. The hatefull, misinformative, instance nazi's like Sephrick deman it.
