Yes dear. Some in response to people who hate the "skill".

It has never been A "skill".

It is structured like a minigame, and was released as a "skill", in order to attempt to force cooperative play.

(and I say "force", because of the poor design of cooperative play there, and the way benefits were structured to support that poor design. yes, it can be soloed. I DO, and am almost done with the damned thing, thank god! lol)

One thing I have always found odd is that we can get the boss halfway through a dungeon. It feels weird to fight a boss, and then go out of the room again to finish the rest of the dungeon. I would prefer it if the dungeons were laid out so that the boss is always in the last room.

I know that I don't have to fight the boss until after I have cleared the whole dungeon, but it still feels weird that it is there at all halfway through.

RS3 has already made minigame style options for DG. It is called Sinkholes and Elite Dungeons.
Sinkholes are not minigames, because you can only do those twice a day. A minigame is something you can play as often as you want.

To me dungeoneering does feel very much like a minigame. It has much in common with Stealing Creation in that it involves the use of all of our skills to make things from scratch.

If people do consider it a minigame, then it is the only minigame where we can level up and get access to other stuff, which is pretty cool. Perhaps they should to that with other minigames too.

D&Ds are all minigames. They are organized under the Adventure/Minigame Tab officially by Jagex.

"Distractions and Diversions, sometimes abbreviated as D&Ds, is a classification of game features initially released on 2 September 2008.

D&Ds are a subclassification of minigames"
