No we don't. We play this 10 year old game because the raiding of non-instanced bosses THAT YOU MUST COMPETE OVER is about the most fun you can have in the endgame of a PvE game.

Instanced zones are not fun. I remember my whole guild bitching and moaning every time we had to do Plane of Time. If it wasn't for the mass quantities of amazing loot, I'd say that's one of my least favorite zones in that expansion. The only reason it was bearable IMO at the time was the sheer amount of raid bosses/loot.

No matter what you say, if you play a PvE game for the high-end, its not about the boss you're killing, its about competing with the next person. If you only have 1 boss between multiple guilds, the competition is who gets the boss. If each guild has their own instanced boss, the competition is who can kill their boss first.

The only difference is the losers get their mob/loot too in instanced zones. That makes winning less fun.
