I invite other concerned gamers to “take a break” from FFXIV as well—subscription and all. This is perhaps the only forum that invites telling the masses to quit playing the game at hand. So just do it! Cancel your sub fees until Square Enix is bled dry! DO IT NOW!
You aren't required to pay if you want to take a break. But people who can't let their house getting demolished have the option to pay the sub and take a break at the same time and just log in every 45 days. You don't have to play every day just because you pay the sub. And also, canceling the sub is no requirement for taking a break.
