'Raids', really?

[Oscillate_Wildly]

Because we like to, and we can. If it bothers you so much, move on. O: There's plenty of discussions you have yet to troll, make it so.

Words bring with them feelings and memories and the word "Raid" brings to me the memory of trying 3+ times to play Wow and having to deal with its obnoxious subscribers, time wasted I would rather not be reminded of (Bad Feelings and Memories).

The words "White" and "Mage" together reminds me of the very first job I played and loved in FFXI (Good Memories).

The words "Brittany" and "Spears" put together make me feel sick like throwing up but also remind me of when she got her head blown off and still tried to sing on South Park (I laughed my ass off) so these feelings I have about these two words together are mixed (Mixed Feelings and Memories).

give me a thumbs up if you think dungeon raid should be called chamber plunder as not to seem to similar to other titles. joking, i dont care what they call it as long as they start adding content.

Just out of curiousity, what is a better term for "Raid?" I like that XI didnt really have generic terms for content, but thats because most content wasn't alike. I also played LOTRO and from what I can remember we called instanced content either an instance, or most of the time by the areas name.

Speaking of which...

"You have entered an instance"

:gasp: an INSTANCE!?? surely this is the epitome of mediocrity. "Instance" is a pock mark that sticks out like a dead marmot! Doesn't SE know it must be ARTISTIC!??

I will not play such filth that would subject me to an "instance"! Let me out I say! I am an ADVENTURER! I will be restrained only by "Adventure"!

"You have entered an Adventure."

Much better! Surely this plays to the artistic quality of this fine articulate game! Now I can return to my behests, and Local leves, Notorious Monters a--:GASP!:

What in the Seven Hells is This!! "Quests"??! Its like my ears have been violated with such words!

[giftforce]

Are we going to say "we wiped to So-and-so" everytime we fail a "raid" too?

It just seems like FFXIV will lose some of its charm if everything because systematic and calculated like that.

"What are you doing right now?

"DDh"

"ahhh okay, good luck!"

nuff said.

[Morphemes]

Is this because the game itself lacks a solid cohesive story?

=(

i like the story...

What if they said 'panty raid'?

The story is excellent and getting better. D: But it's so spread out.

Why is there no CM response for this? I'm not looking to have my game turned into its garbage bland competitor. Diversified content named with care please.
