friend: hey man FF XIV has raids now!
1st time player: o yay another ZERG LOOT dungeon game.
Friend: Hey, man, XIV has invasions now!
First timer: The hell's an "invasion"?
Friend: Well, you get a bit of story, then you get a bunch of people together and go to this dungeon, which we call an invasion. Then, you clear the dungeon, kill some bosses, and get some cool new items.
First timer: So. . . it's like a raid, but with more plot?
