    The Psycho Mantis dungeon.

    Inspired by flyte's post about more difficult dungeons, I was wondering if it would be possible to totally rip-off Konami's Metal Gear Solid boss battle: Psycho Mantis?

    For those unfamilliar with the game, and/or the battle, the Psycho Mantis battle broke the 4th wall in a variety of ways, described here:
    http://metalgear.wikia.com/wiki/Psyc...tal_Gear_Solid

    To "honor" a battle such as this, a variety of things could be thrust upon the players to include:

    -Sporadically turning off a players HUD.
    -Scrambling all or some of the actions on player hotbars.
    -Swapping player audio.
    -Misleading enemy actions/casts ("Mantis' eyes glow purple" - Ice attack)
    -Sporadically reversing/changing camera angle.
    -Sporadically changing character controls between players.
    Any other ideas?
    Win.

    A fun idea, but it would just annoy and frustrate everyone that doesn't get the reference or at least understand the concept of the joke. Having mind screw in an MMO where one wrong move can wipe the party is just asking for trouble.

    Cross-platform MMORPG.

    OP, work this out for PS3, PS4 and PC. Send the idea to SE when it is all worked out and will work with the multiple ways to play the game.

    In an MMO people would sort of find it a novelty the first time then just find it incredibly annoying. People want to finish dungeons quickly and move on to farm items. That's what people do in MMO's. They don't want to waste longer than they need in an individual run.
