Eureka is homage to FFXI? Similiarities.

1) Elemental weaknesses/strengths.
2) Monsters chase you across the map.
3) Fear of losing exp when getting KO'd.
4) Forcing grouping up into parties within Eureka.

Did I miss anything else? It seems to be their answer of paying back homage to FFXI in one similar way.

Lets see 1-2 are correct, 3) only if your really are a terrible player you would be afraid. Also it's after lv6 elemental tier is XP lost for elemental gathering, for 4) they are not forcing you into it they said there is solo-able content. It just helps to be in a party for Higher tier mobs.
