Okay, now take that one paragraph. Multiply it by 5, make it so no paragraph interacts with anyone else as it'd happen in an actual conversation, and do this not only for important plot related factors, but for any misc NPC that exists.

That's FFXIV.

Good writing isn't just what happens and it isn't just grabbing a thesaurus. Good writing is also how dialog is delivered. And XIV fails greatly at this.

edit:

People, take a look at FFT's rewrite. It uses old english but the dialogs are superv. Can you say the same about XIV? Hell no. There are no dialogs in XIV. Just monologs.

Can you picture a FFT character speak as much as a misc inn NPC in uldah? Get real.
That's just how you feel its like, other peoples experience do differ from yours, some agree with you, and some don't. I personally love it so I don't know what to tell you.
