Or in WoW: you take a flight point, see a random treasure pop on your minimap so when you land you get on your mount and go there. Then you see a rare spawn while questing and go do that. Or you see a cave on the map and you go explore it because there may or may not be a secret in there. FF14 players are too used to static dumbed down gameplay i guess to ever imagine that. Its clear that most people that defend this game at this point just want to watch a TV Show without looking like a "lazy person that just sits on their couch watching tv all day" so they pretend there is any gameplay left in this "game".
