Sorry, but Content deal finder again.....

[Wolfie]

Please give a list of things that prevent you from having fun that I don't want.

Things I don't want:
Heavy instanced
Bad Community
Instant airship
Anima<insert another way of teleportation here(I just don't want anima)>
Instant Boat ride
Aggro indicator
Exact level of mobs
Level sync
Content Finder
Speed runs

I don't see how any of those prevent you from having "FUN"

All those things just make the game easier, and we have found out easy=/=fun

lmao, you literally just listed every single improvement that this game has made over the last year and a half. Improvements that turned it from a steaming pile of $80 crap, into something that's playable and enjoyable.

You are a joke.

Open world content:
-Guildleves
-Behest
-Strongholds (Adding in an Imperial Stronghold according to 1.22 list.)
-NM's (A lot more in 2.0)
-Odin Primal (Dev's said he is an open world primal fight in 2.0.)
-Hamlet Defense
-Escort
-Gathering
-Adding in the big time beastmen strongholds in 2.0 like Davoi was to FFXI.

Instanced:
-Story related content
-Dungeons
-Primals
-PvP

Is saying there isn't enough open world content a valid statement? Because I believe it is false.

[ThePatriarch]

Because its the truth, if you don;t know that a cave/tunnel is a Dungeon then I don't know what to tell you.. must not play MMO's much

Man, there is alot to do in Nanawa Mines.

Good lord! Copperbell is just overflowing with exciting content.

While you are at it, you may as well include all the random small caves throughout all maps. Those are definitely dungeons too. Lots to do inside them, man. Walls to look at. I surely hope 2.0 brings more of these.

You just prove yourself how lacking FFXIV's open world content is when you have to include zones. Last I check CopperBell mines, was a mine, not a dungeon. I also think that Nanawa Mines, is a Mine.

Make more assumptions of what games I play. While you are at it please tell me the lottery numbers for next week.

Don't worry, you're going to get some some s**tty logically invalid bulls**t thrown at you in about 30 seconds to show you how EVERYTHING IN THE GAME IS BEING INSTANCED OMG

[Rokien]

Let's see, quick 1 minute list:

Instanced Dungeons/End-game content
Content Finder
2nd homepoint at inn
Anima
New leveling/combat system
In-city teleports/aether
Death penalty that doesn't take you an hour per death to get over

LOLOLOLOL
"Please give a list of things that prevent you from having fun that I DON'T want."
Anyways I'm all for instanced content and end game, bring it!
Content finder from previous games were terrible
It makes you don't have to choose, "Do I wanna set hp here or keep it at x area" decisions are good in a game.
Anima ya it's a terrible system I'm for teleportation though
Ya, I want a more intuitive combat system
I said I wouldn't be against it IF the cities were in zones
Ya makes ya work harder not to die.

No you are a joke

Aside from Dungeons, those 3 things SHOULD be instanced. There are certain things that just won't work at all in an open-world setting. And saying that the leve mobs are Instanced.. While that is true, Guildleves itself are Not instanced, you have to go through open-world to get to those leve mobs, and they give you privacy so no one can interfere.

These few people that are claiming 2.0 or the current version is a Instanced friendly game, are really out of it.. like seriously.

Open world content:
-Guildleves(instanced)
-Behest(instanced)
-Strongholds (Adding in an Imperial Stronghold according to 1.22 list.)

-Odin Primal (Dev's said he is an open world primal fight in 2.0.)
-Hamlet Defense(could be instanced with this content finder)
-Escort(instanced, could be even more so)
-Gathering
-Adding in the big time beastmen strongholds in 2.0 like Davoi was to FFXI.

Instanced:
-Story related content
-Dungeons

We can only prepare for the worst, that is what I'm doing./

They are Dungeons end of story, Anything thats not in the " open world setting" is a Dungeons, Mines are a dungeon too

[Jynx]

Just my look on it.
Positives:
-No more having to wait around forever to have a party.
-Able to enter content much more quickly
-Fantastic for people with bussy lives who just want to get in a quick run


Negatives:
-Anyone who dosn't use it will have even more trouble finding a local party.
-Could be damaging to a server comunity when all you do is play with people you may never see again.
-Beurocratic in nature, it can take away from the idea of the world as alive by being overly systematic and mechanical.
-More push towards instanced quick content could mean a push away from long term chalenges and open world content

This is pretty much my view on it and personally for me the negatives far outweigh the positives.

Yep yep agreed!
