For the Most Part, this is a Final Fantasy JRPG 1st, and an MMO 2nd. For anybody that has seriously been playing this game and not just trying to Jump to Raiding and LITERALLY ignore everything else.....this is true.
But, I honestly dont agree with Hiding other Players from existence. Sure you can say its annoying and Immersion Breaking to try to talk to an NPC thats surrounded by people and they get cut off from the screen by a Chocobo in Bright Barding, or say a guy in a Frog Costume. But, its because you are in a Large Breathing World. There will be other people around doing their own thing, just like the real world.

Also all of these other random people are Recognized as other Adventurers. People just exploring, taking on jobs and the like.
These same Adventurers are who you recruit as extra muscle to explore Dungeons, take down a Giant Dragon on a High Bridge, and Fight Gods.
Completely removing them from existence in your view I think would take away from the game.
