Contested Dungeons - New Challenges - Dynamic Content.

I agree with you, the contested dungeon thing sounds fun for sure. Unfortunately it seems most things are made to cater to the lowest common denominator, as that's where the money is. So I don't see something like this coming around in a theme-park MMO like this, since it isn't readily accessible to all players.

Whats better, making 10,000$ a month, or 1,000,000$ over 2-5 years?

Contested Dungeons may not be popular short term, but in long term they are very popular.

They are parts of the reason why games last so long. Since they can be updated to be current content.

Part of the draw of this game, for me at least, is the low Grief-Coefficient of its content. The odds of me becoming some trolling arsehole's entertainment in FFXIV compared to say, WoW is very low. All this would do is encourage that segment of the player base to make life difficult for every other segment of the player base when running this content (and possibly to find new and exciting ways of pissing other players off).
