Instance vs Open-World: what do you want more of?

[dejavutwo]

I like instances because I enjoy fights that are tuned for and take advantage of the developers knowing the party size and approximate composition. I just think there needs to be a more gradual ramp-up to the end-game difficulty instead of the sudden walls that Titan X and T5 pose.

I would certainly hope the hardest content in the game at launch was a wall. And if extreme wasn't difficult then it wouldn't be named extreme.

I just saying that the difficulty spikes too much right around those fights, and that it would be nice to have fights that are a little bit easier than those two, but a bit more difficult than the earlier turns to make the transition into the more difficult raids a bit easier.
