Why does the world suck?

It's a long fall down from that High Chocobo you're riding on. Save yourself some time and get off the proper way while you still can. lol

I'm not sure what you mean by that. I just want the game to be challenging. There's NOTHING wrong with having areas that require groups to clear. If you don't like that play style, then don't go in there. I HAVE to do the stupid scripted dungeons, there's no way to avoid them and progress the story. What I am proposing is far less restrictive than what is already in the game.

Since the OP is clearly talking about FFXI... Hate to burst it to you but I was doing this at level one on that game as well, it's called dodging.

I thought in this thread we were going to have a philosophical debate about why the real world sucks. I actually came prepared with a theory, but in regards to the actual topic... I have no response.

No thanks. I was a hardcore FFXI player, and I'm against this. It's not good game design at all to force people to party in order to explore certain areas.

What I do want are explorable dungeons and caverns that are not instanced. I would love to explore a cavern and run across random players also exploring the area without having to party with them, with an HNM-like FATE boss randomly spawning somewhere, who is as difficult as the Behemoth or Odin FATE. Kinda like Garlaige Citadel with Serket.

This game has plenty of zones out in the open, but none that are underground tombs and caves.

Maybe it's ok if you let me play with one or two friends and not a whole party. It will give us a good time exploring and fighting.
