If "raids" involve like 25, 40, 70 people to do then please keep that out of this game. I know WoW reduced their raid sizes from 40 since no one wanted to go through the hassle of keeping those encounters together. I have a lot more fun with a tightknit group of 8 people that I can run encounters with. So keep "raid" content out of FFXIV since that seems to involve at least 24 people according to OP.
