Being forced to group just to play the game story is nuts. It's maddening since Square assumes they can just do this. Why even do this in the first place, why not do what other MMOs do and let MP be voluntary?
You... revived a nearly 5 year old thread for this?

Well, honest and blunt advice: You need run MSQ group content exactly once, and once only. Optional dungeons you can skip. And you can never return to the MSQ ones if you don't want to. After that, you can avoid group instances and effectively play the entire game solo.

If you really can't tolerate such a small amount of group play then... yes, the game probably isn't for you.
