I kind of like them (Destiny)

I think there is a new Warhammer 40k game coming out that does this, the rooms, internal clutter, and enemies are each procedurally generated to form a dungeon.

D1 did the latter two with the Prison of Elders. Really D2 should be able to have a stable of prebuilt rooms they could put together and then generate the latter two. I think the major opportunity would be to add all the various raid mechanics so players could get used to them outside raids/trials etc.


PoE is exactly what I'm thinking about when I say it's too hard to make it good. I liked PoE for what it was, but there was such little variety in the encounters that there might as well have been none at all.

There's a big difference between "Bungie didn't do a good job at that last time" and "it's impossible for a AAA FPS to do it at all"
