Where does it say the dungeon will be a re-spawning area? I read that it is necessary to enter the dungeon to retrieve a relic item for one of the quests.

I think we won't see this game until between 2 and 3rd quarter. They were claiming the game was almost done over a year ago. Incorporation of voice overs are going to take some time. I don't want a bugfest, there seems to be a lot of features in this so as far as I'm concerned it can cook til its done and let me finish some of the stuff on the backburner.
