One major flaw I can picture this game having.

EXTREME bullet sponge enemies. i.e if youre fighting a hug beast that 200+ ppl can take part in that must mean that thing would have a crap ton of health.

so youve got 200 ppl sitting there shooting at it with 200 guns for a full 20 minutes (or more) before it dies... does that sound even slightly fun?

Sure Ive played MMORPG where fights took 3 hours but that wanst boring because there was a lot going on.. I always had to stand in certain places and change my position to avoid surprises, run back an forth to make sure people buffs were up, keep my own defenses up while attacking, coordinate special attacks with others, time certain abilities, it otherwords I just wasnt standing next to the enemy spamming hotbar attacks every 2 secs when the refreshed for 3 hours, i had a LOT to do to keep my busy and thus staying focused and not bored and s lot to keep track of.

but in a shooter its main strategies are circle strafe/strafe and shoot.. so basically run circles around the enemies while holding down the fire button for 20 mins...... does that really sound fun?

Not gonna lie. Blasting the living **** out of something with an awesome gun... sounds fun in my book.

Yeah i think that would be pretty awesome!

as long there are other enemies smaller one poping out here and there to distract us from shooting the main boss it would be fun and from the variuos gameplays i notice the hellbugs keep attacking while fighting the main arch-fall so no worries there

Will yes you have to run around but as you said you had to do that always no matter what the game but I have seem some boss fights and then is more too it then just hold down the fire key and running. I have seen on fight where you have you hit key spots on the boss to make him hittable also one when you have to do a number of things while fight a boss plus you can ride around in cars stuff..... its going to be crazy

Are you just assuming that there won't be any action in the fight or you know from experience that Defiance won't be putting any action into a world boss?

I honestly don't know either way I am sure they will think of a fun way to do these fights.

I get what you're saying but it really boils down to how its done. There could be many things like a Huge enemy with different hit locations to break off armor, disable a weapon or ability, head shots, etc. Couple that with things like enemy waves, tech, different encounter types, adding lava is always fun, makes and keeps thing engaging.

So no, just shooting at something for 20 minutes would be boring. Shooting at a huge armored bug, while aiming for the claws, tentacles, eyes and shell to dmg and disable different things all while dealing with waves of other bugs and terrain advantages/disadvantages DOES sound fun.

All a matter of execution and perspective. (^_^)

now THAT sound a bit more active, maybe have an enemy that has targets you have to break before damaging it whereas waves of smaller enemies that can easily kill your group if you dont have a small squad set aside for dealing with the adds before they overwhelm you and or maybe making it so that you have to hit an enemy in certain spots a certain number of times to get its mouth open to which reveals the area you have to shoot which can only be reached with a sniper rifle and missing that opportunity makes you have to take another 5 minutes reopening its mouth etc etc, so the snipers shot make the difference between ending the battle quickly or prolonging it, which makes the threat of adds worse and worse

(and be usually being a sniper would love being under that kinda pressure)

I spent 3 n a half hours at the shooting range in Mass Effect 3.
I think I would have plenty of fun haha
