A better idea for dungeons besides speed run.

Stuff about FFXI

I was a vanguard FFXI player for years, I'm aware of this.

I suppose I did myself a disservice by not qualifying my statement. "There's no precedent outside of FFXI."

Final Fantasy is a huge series with a rich history to draw from. Some parts of FFXI worked, others arguably did not, or at least are less than desirable. Regardless, most, FFXI events do not feel like break-neck rushes from the get go, and those that did, did not boil down to running through packs of enemies and making them disappear via panels on the ground.

Regardless, I was referring to the rest of the series. And to be perfectly clear, the bits of FFXI that felt the most quintessentially Final Fantasy were not bits like the raids, but segments like CoP missions, which for the most part, did not involve time pressure.

People want the option to relax.

Not to mention gating loot behind a time trial compounds the problem that every MMO experiences. Players without experience in a dungeon have no chance to learn without causing the rest of the group to suffer.

you can relax and still be playing a Challenging game, relax =/= easy/casual.

As Bled already stated... A desire to be able to relax, is not exclusive to casual players. I want hardcore raid content, but I don't want to lose the raid loot if I have to take an emergency bathroom break...

Great thing is, even if an event doesn't have a time limit, you can still go as fast as you want, if that's what floats your boat.

Um, I am a part of these people you speak of and I definitly don't want that.
