Not everyone will have the same experience = That's why we make it more various & more choice.

Let the hardcore player have their awesome loots and let the casual player complete their epic story saga.
I don't want my casual friends quit this games due to frustration unable to beat the hardcore coil, all she want is to complete the story.
MMO=MASSIVELY Mutliplayer Online (Game) "Massively" refers to how there is a large number of players interacting and doing things at once. If no one is required to group to do things, then it's just an oversized lobby filled with crafters. There ARE games like that, by the way.
You DO have these choices, but you also have your choice in which game you play. This game offers you many choices, but it still has requirements. That's the way games work. Even Arena style games have certain requirements to get certain things.
Seriously, if you WANT to play solo, there IS solo content. A lot of solo content. However, there will always be group content and, since this is a MASSIVE online world, that will take precedent over the single player aspect. Even the games i mentioned have things locked behind group content.
If you're a predominantly solo player, and don't want to deal with the DF, PF, or making your own group, maybe this game is not for you. Similarly, if you don't like turn-based content and backtracking, FFIV won't be for you.
Adding options, again, is fine, but those options should not supersede the core tenets of us working together to accomplish goals.
