Especially if you live in EU. I was thinking maybe i should have gone to Ragnarok but i heard its torture over there.

If you have hours and hours of your day to spend on game and live in either Japan or America you can pretty much be fine, but trust me your experience is different than a fair amount of other people.

Fortunately, unlike XI (early days), people shout for endgame content so you can get PUG, but ya know, it is just that, a PUG, not always very fun or successful.

I am really hoping they get on board with the whole "Difficulty Scaling" so you can do content without need a strict number of people.
ya sorry can't agree on this raids are going to be 25+ players it just the point of endgame right now we doing is not endgame it just random event like garrsion or bcnm stuff that ffxi had. Yoshi-p said they going to be alliance so that mean 24 man raids and he even said ishgard going to have a lot of players pve with dragons that the reason ishgard opening is delay to 2.0 so they can display more then 40 char at one time.

Remember that they be dungeon finder so people can log in and do a quick ifrit or moogle or a 8 man raid without issue or 4 man raid so i don't see that issue anymore but for endgame it should be more then 8,.
