Well, I think you guys answered my question - it's much slower paced and most of the content is rendered pointless. Thanks!

Yeah but its not just that.
The game has one of the best plots of all final fantasy titles. It is (was) the most challenging and hardcore final fantasy there is.
Chains of promathia before being nerfed made Dark Souls a child's game. And it was awesome for that.
The game is really old and still looks awesome. All the equipment has certain style to it.
There are a big load of staple characters which you just fall in love with and recognize everywhere. They all have something different to them that makes them stand out. Like the way they phrase what they say, or catch phrases.
Pretty much all the game's quests have rich cutscenes and are really moving.
And back in the day the game was so great it took almost a year to get a character to max level. You'd grow really attached to it.
The whole world feels alive. Everything works according to the world's clock. Be it elemental day, or time of the day. Shops don't open at night and such. Even flowers that glow in the dark!
It feels really alive. People in XIV dislike cumbersome things such as a shop not being open 24/7...
