Personally not enjoying the story currently but everyone keeps saying it gets better

You give reasons for why you have this opinion. But your "statistic" showing what more then 66.6% of players think in that regard, what is your source for that? "Trust me bro"?

Sure, check the Census or Lucky Bancho. Most players only do the Single Player content over the MMO content. Majority of players don't raid, and that's basically the only 'MMO' content that can't be Single Player. And if you tell me you queue for dungeon and actually talk with people, yeah I don't believe that one bit. The only reason I don't Duty Support is because it's slower, otherwise the experience is largely the same now.

Also the Steam % drop off shows majority of the playerbase stop playing as soon as they finish MSQ.

Not gonna get into the nightclub scene, because if you're gonna tell me that's the MMO then lool.

Anyway, XIV can't have it's cake and eat it too. Most of the content it has can be played Single Player, and the MSQ itself REQUIRES you play it Single Player. If you want to contest that then go for it.
