    I'm tired of things being boring and static, the world has NO challenge. The game has NO dynamic content in it.
    We have dynamic content; It's called FATEs. We also have open-world challenges; they're called treasure hunts. We also have A and S-rank hunt mobs, which can't be soloed. There is stuff to do outside.

    The fact that you're not instantly a dead man walking from getting aggro is not a bad thing.

    * The sad thing is that FFXIV turned RDM into a turret, and people think that's what it's supposed to be. It's supposed to combine sword and magic into something more, not spend the bulk of gameplay spamming spells and jump into melee for only 3 GCDs before scurrying back to the back line like good little casters.

    Whats so dynamic about fates? Nothing changes about them and they offer no change to the world. ALL fates are always the same. Nothing new ever happens in them. I think the fate system should be scrapped because honestly its the same thing over/over, and doesn't make much sense.

    So, you saved a girl from a monster, 10 minutes later you do the same thing. SO DYNAMIC!

    You're asking for environmental change in a game type where it isn't possible without screwing a large portion of other players (this is why the main story questline had to be written as it was instead of having you actually exiled from the place you were exiled from and not have actual access to it).

    What you're asking for is something along the lines of the Hornet's Nest. Except we both know how popular that place was once the leveling rush came and went. You could also ask for phasing, which SE has done to a degree, though that creates other complications.
