Yea I don't want a second job, if that's all the same.

MMO's have evolved the way they have for a reason, you can blame it on WoW or you can be realistic and realise that the masses do not want to be tied to a game 4-5 hours every evening to make any kind of progress.

If people want to play a "single player game" online then so be it, who are you to tell them otherwise.

Here I was being nice towards one of your posts and see how I'm repaid lol XD
What you have to understand is that a lot of the potential FFXIV players are FFXI vets. Most of these people want a game similar to XI in that they want challenging, full scale content that requires a good deal of effort to get to and complete.
I, personally, do not like the whole dungeon idea. I want things like: Gather pop totems for the gods that cause a king of gods to pop in a certain area.

Or, Uldah has been overrun with Emperial forces, repel them (actual enemies please. None of this caravan crap.)

Hmm...other ideas.......Ah, open world areas that require playing through a chain of quests and acquiring story to actually get to. I joined "market" FFXIV 2 days after it was released due to the server constantly being down on release. When I got in, one of the first things I did was run to every area possible and get all of the teleports. I shouldn't be able to do this. There should be areas that I can't get to without fulfilling certain requirements (and no SE, I don't consider current level to be a requirement)
