It's not that I don't like the story of this game, but I don't care for that at all, I just want to play this game with my friends at my own pace, and I wanted to be free to skip contents or maps if I want to, yet I'm still playing because of the friendships that I've made, not because the story of the game, even if it's a Final Fantasy, it doesn't mean that you have to make the story of the game a chore, it should be optional, as many MMO's do.
No offense but dude if you're not doing any of the story then you're missing half the game that is the entire point of it being a Final Fantasy title thats why it's not optional.
