If there was a world event in game, that destroys all Aetherctye...

uhh what? Most people barely teleported at all until higher levels due to not knowing how much money they would be making.

I didn't care about money and others didn't as well we just wanted to get though the story quests. The game sends you back to Horizon like every other quest during some parts of the story. I and a lot of other people got so sick of traveling from Horizon to Vesper Bay just to get to the Waking Sands that we all questioned why there wasn't just an aetherctye in Vesper Bay. If new players had to travel from the somewhere in the Shroud or La Noscea back to Gridania and Limsa respectively take an airship back to Ul'dah then travel west to Vesper Bay then travel all the way back to their location to continue their quest then to only have to head back to Horizon again in a few quests there would be so much rage. That's not enjoyable that's just tedious.

Just set your homepoint in Limsa and take the ferry to Vesper Bay.

That works if you had a homepoint but if the athercytes were down you wouldn't have a homepoint to travel back to so they would still need to travel to Limsa pay to go to Vesper Bay, pay to go back to Limsa(or walk back) then travel back to where they were questing. Still a lot of tedious traveling for new players.

If there is no teleporting then there is no homepoint.

Indeed, the main story was written with all the teleporting in mind. I'll always prefer one big journey to 10 fetch quests that end up taking the same amount of time though. :/

Game has no interesting content; player base in turn asks to be forced to manually travel everywhere.

My god, if people even read what they wrote. Only in MMOs does this mentality exist.
