Time limit to re-enter dungeons

if this is accurate then I think that was the seal on the coffin for XIV.

You heard it here first, folks. Richard said game over. Time for us to all play [insert MMO here.]


Admittedly, 5 minutes seems a bit strange. But then again, that does solve the issue of DC'ing and being removed from the dungeon. Not in the most ideal of ways... but there you have it anyway.

Wow, time to quit again.

the game can be challenging without requiring us to wait x amount of days before we can do something....

It make items not rare. Like every thing else in this game. Which means everyone will have what they want in a month and there will be no reason to play.

I do so hate losing my composure when it comes to irrational BS, but does anyone else read this as: "I can afford to dedicate so much time to this game that I should be among the few chosen elite to receive special items! And after I get them? Mission Accomplished. Game Over! F**k ally'all."

Firstly, what's wrong with valuable, useful items being obtainable by anyone willing to put in the work to achieve them? Furthermore, how can you possibly consider a mid-level grind dungeon reward something to get so bent out of shape about people other than you having that you'd quit? It's not a relic; it's a hyped up PVE BCNM. There weren't limits on how many BCNMs you could do if you were willing to put in the time to farm the seals either.

And even if you're right about the first part - after you get your items, why is the game suddenly devoid of content? Help other people get theirs, socialize, relax -- ... go outside? Engage a member of the opposite sex?

No wonder the devs never reply to threads like this; the "We Hardcore vs. The Casuals" bu11sh!t is the most obnoxious thing I've ever seen in my entire life as a gamer. Both groups: Grow up.

... go outside? Engage a member of the opposite/same sex?

Quoted and corrected!

Oh and... Post count+1! xD

Clearly being able to run content multiple times is killing the game.

Melodramatic much? We don't even know how important this type of dungeon will be.

This is quite possibly that dumbest thing I have heard today, this in no way in game breaking. It would be dumb to make you wait a prolonged period to enter dungeons. If you want wait times for everything you do go back and play FFXI me on the other hand I like to be able to enjoy the content when I want to enjoy it not when some dumb time limit says I can.

What if the materia system is the future of elite gear, and this dungeon is literally a training ground for what is to come? I could see plenty of limited future content built around the company system where you purchase tokens and are allowed access to specific boss fights/dungeons where the best gear could come from. This is down the road after they really are done balancing stats and such and have introduced the jobs. What we have now is just filler/demo of what is to come, and yes it sucks to be a hard core gamer playing the never ending waiting game but in the end when PS3 launches and they start charging I think it will have been worth the wait and right now I'm enjoying the process.

I think you are spot on with this. How can these dungeons really be too much more than some fun (hopefully) filler when (a) the battle system changes aren't finished (b) the job system isn't implemented (c) the class re-working hasn't been done (d) the materia system isn't implemented ?

Wow, now I wonder how long these dungeons are going to last as good content if the re-enter time is so fast.

Like 1 Month maybe till everyone, got every Item out of the Dungeons.

Imho it was a bad decision to make it 5 Min re-enter. Should have been at least 8 Hours and also if there is a cap on Parties which can enter at the Time time, i see a lot of Problems coming along with that.

Not to speak of that we now get more Stuff, which everyone and their Mom will gain in a short amount of Time. Another casualthing which slaps Coregamer right into the Face.

Well, we have to wait and see what the Dungeons will be, how the Droprate will be, if there will be tons of Gear, what we need to enter, etc etc etc. Maybe im wrong, but with the decision to make it possible to re-enter after 5 Minutes i see noone in Dungeons anymore in 3-4 Month, unless they have been added a couple more by then.
