Except for all of the parts you need to group up with other people in order to complete, right?
Any MMO open world is singleplayer if you choose to ignore everyone else.
I mean, sure? But good luck making money off of it solely on your own...

There's a reason that's an achievement; because it wasn't meant for you to do it like that, but the devs want to acknowledge people who go the extra mile. This is game design 101.
I have encountered dozens of situations where I could have made friends if I wanted to, Diadem chatter being one of the biggest, something that's ACTUALLY majorly singleplayer. Sounds like someone isn't putting in the effort to be social, and is blaming the game because of it.
Every game has RMT, because it's next-to-impossible to police. WoW, having been around and popular for much longer than FFXIV, never really solved RMT, and had to add the WoW Token as a way to combat it.
