I hope dungeons in this game aren't like western MMO dungeons

I really hope dungeons in this game aren't like western mmo(WOW/WOW clone) dungeons. They're really boring after the 1st 1 or two times then just become boring loot grinds.

Completely agree. While I enjoyed many of those dungeons, those games had too much of an emphasis on knowing encounters instead of knowing game, class, and mob mechanics. They have their place in those games, but I don't care to see them here. I want the fight to challenge my ability to tank or to play a class, not an encyclopedia knowledge of some raid encounter.

Well... not sure if this is what you meant by pop Shiyo, but instances where you have to find certain items to either make the boss appear or fight the boss sounds good too. But the items need to be randomly placed or on random monsters.

Agreed.

I like mazes, but too many specific mechanics on bosses, not so much. A few are ok.
