An Open-World Dungeon IS a Zone with Open world content. It is a "Dungeon-like" zone.

They are intricate/difficult to navigate.

They have treasure and rare spawns.

They evoke the emotional response you obtain from exploring a dungeon.

They are they a places where the Community can interact on a level beyond party grinding and LS chat.

They have Content that requires Large groups of players and Content that can be completed alone or in small groups.

These are the Kind of place where you can happen upon something to do. Where there are always people doing something and sometimes you may have to ask a passerby for help.

FFXI attempted to do it with places like Monovopolis, Castle Oztroja and Garlage Citidel. They only failed in that they did not actually make any content for these areas.
