Stop Asking for Open World Content

[Yurihyuga]

guys OP is a troll when ever he posts it is always full of shit. Let the thread die he is just trying to cause a drama thread, let the stupidity die.

Stupidity? He's right. Square has demonstrated they have no idea how to implement open world content. And to be honest, I don't think the players know how to either. Times have changed, the same playerbase that made openworld content good have long since moved on. FATES are Squares idea of prime open world content. I can only imagine seamless transitions being cool, sort the boss wall appearing at the opening of a dungeon and then phasing out the other players. Can you imaging the shitstorm if people could contest anything? This game is meant for and played by carebares who for the most part don't want to miss out on anything. Just honestly look at the content as if it was already in game, can you imagine how that would work with the majority of the playerbase for this game? Just give it some honest thought

open world content with "purple areas" or "destination" that make mobs pop ? sure ....

[Stanelis]

It is always crap. Always. Just look at the joke of Hunts and Fates. When I play a game I want to be immersed in the experience... not be watching Netflix so I don't cry tears of boredom.

Just because fates and hunts are bad doesn't mean every open world content has to be garbage.

I don't see how it could be done well. I really don't. When you have content that you can just throw more people at, content that doesn't require you to actually play your class appropriately, what is the point? It is a zzzz fest.

Limited participants, like treasure maps (between 1-8 players, not more)

None of the treasure maps require 8 people to do... let alone 8 people actually playing their class accordingly.

neverless the max is 8.
treasure maps are open world and you can't zerg them with 20 full parties.

It was also only an example of open world content that is not zerged because only 1-8 players can do it together.

lol OP...because standing in town queuing for lobby bosses is so much more riveting, right? Open world content done right can be significantly more fun than instanced stuff...and it is accessible to many, many more players. I wouldn't mind some more real raids, too (aka >20 people, trash, lots of bosses - you know, a RAID)
