Nope, what I remember from FFXI:
-Log on
-See what time it is
-Got 2-3 hours to spare? Build a party, craft, farm or level a low level job for conquest points.
-Event time, gather together at (location)
-Run Event
-Next event, gather together at (location)
-Run event
-Events over for the day, finish what I started earlier
-log and sleep depending on day and event timing.
If anything, I remember running around most my time in FFXI lol.
What I think you meant to say was "I think some of you didn't have the same experience as I did in FFXI."
Depends purely if they do cross-server dungeons. You basically go into "limbo", which is why FFXI/XIV was one of the few MMOs that people cared about their server community because you're confined within your community (which seems to be a bad thing to newer MMO gamers) and you live out life with your fellow (server)ians. Cross-server basically takes out the need to build a stable community because you can just load up a finder and do it with anyone on any server.
So it works for people who just want to play a video game, not people who care for or bother with the community aspect of an MMO.
