I logged back onto the game and uninstalled the same night

FF14 does not have a toybox

it has games in the Inn..oh lets not forget that those toys you mention? are handed out by Blizzard, and then either crippled or NERFED beyond repair afterward , citing "unexpected issues"...that apparently they didnt test for beforehand??

it doesn't have pet battles

Lord of Verminion?

achievements are simply far worse and the minion/mount tab badly needs an update.

Dont see an issue with it at all. The achievements are fine as is, you get new titles and cosmetic items / glam items as you go.

The nail in the coffin with WoW was when they added the 30th renamed rat or snake pet and when they started removing massive chunks of content once they were no longer current.

They've been doing that for ages long before you noticed..Battle for Undercity anyone? Blizzard hasnt just "removed" content they used a CHAINSAW and hacked huge swathes of it out for no reason. Oh and lets not forget one very recent one....Ordos and the Cloak. Oh that was a real treat, being told by all the Blizz staff that "you can do Ordos afterwards without the cloak"..and then people finding out that they were being ported aout and what did Blizzard say?

Oh "we changed our minds so those who have the cloak can feel speshul"...and with the ENTIRE CLOAK questline gone, no one who wasnt in that expac will ever see or do Ordos.

I left WOW because I was sick to death of being lied to. Repeatedly. And even if they say 'they didnt lie they never make promises"..the time to tell people that was BEFORE the patch, not after. The takeway from that was this "Blizzard cant and wont be held to their word, can and will change their mind at any time. Dont like it? Too bad"

Karabor and Bladespire, replaced with Camp Copypasta and Fort Zug Zug. Blizzard as it is cant be trusted. Ever.

I appreciate that ff14 doesn't do that, the only thing I dislike is their habit of moving past event items to the cash shop, which means a new player is going to have to pay cash to fill out a collection.

About that.

Many of these items come up again at a later stage when the event is rerun, the cash shop is for those who may have missed out on event items. They dont HAVE to buy them as many of them are cosmetic items anyway...or are reused or available elsewhere later.

NB: The car from the FF 15 crossover isnt in the cash shop...which says that event will recur at a later time.
