Can I solo?

[aquaknyte4]

Hello!

I am totally new to Final Fantasy , however I am not new to MMO's. I know it's an MMO, but I don't always want to group. So far a lot of my main story quests are for group dungeons only. My max level is only 20, though. My question is this, is the whole game going to force me to group? I really hope not. I really like this game so far. I want to be able to solo to max level. I am not concerned with getting the "best" gear or anything like that. I just want to play and have fun...but at least be able to ding max level.
If I know I can play on my own terms..I will purchase this game; love it.
Like will I be able to do quests that don't force grouping?
thank you
