    More 8 man dungeons?

    Pretty much as the topic says. There seems to be a huge desire for 8 man dungeons that are not raids. Something similar to the main story roulette but not a main story dungeon with long cutscenes if you know what i mean.
    Is there a reason for this not being a thing yet?
    It gives us the chance to help more people and take along more people from our FCs/friendslist/LS so more people can get xp and do things together.

    EDIT: Just to clarify since people are jumping to conclusions really fast, NO ONE WANTS LONG CUTSCNES THAT ARE UNSKIPPABLE. A cutscene in the beginning when you enter and one after the final boss is all thats needed.

    Please cite your sources.

    Personally, I have no desire to see more 8 man dungeons.

    "huge desire". Don't know why people say stuff like this without proof. I don't know of anyone when this topic is brought up who actually cares for 8 man dungeons. 4 is just fine.

    Proof?

    Also, even if they don't have cutscenes, they would need to be longer enough to justify having 8 people on them, and also, why you want to deal with 7 people if you can do just fine with 3? This just means having more resources wasted in development and the stress of dealing with more bad players at once. In the same time an 8man dungeon gets done, you can do Expert and 70 just fine.

    I have seen a lot of requests over the years...more 8 man dungeons hasn't been one of them. And with good reason.

    Letter from the Producer LIVE Part IX Q&A Summary (10/30/2013)
    Q: Will there be any maintenance fees or other costs for housing, besides the cost of the land and house?
    A: In older MMOs, such as Ultima Online, there was a house maintenance fee you had to pay weekly, but in FFXIV: ARR we decided against this system. Similarly, these older MMOs also had a system where your house would break down if you didn’t log in after a while in order to have you continue your subscription, but this is a thing of the past and we won't have any system like that.

    I've come across many people that wants dungeons to be more 8 man. You can bring more people with you and you can do stuff in bigger groups. It does create a bigger social aspect and a bigger mass can get to enjoy things together. We are mashing buttons right now through the regular dungeons, it's not like that they are hard in the first place. 4 man dungeons are tiresome and most people don't even want to bare redo roulettes after the daily reward is given so why not figure out different ways to appeal to the mass?

    How does adding 4 more people suddenly make dungeons more interesting? The 2 we had certainly weren't much different than 4 man dungeons back in ARR aside from maybe 1 or 2 gimmicks.
