Pretty much this.

I also wish they would stop gating content behind the main story, as some of us really do not care for it. Don't get me wrong, I am an FF junkie and I love the stories but MMO's stories have always been so dull for me, not to mention the way this one started... I just couldn't get behind it. Yay i'm a hero with zero depth and I save everyone a million and one times and then run some weird little errand and deliver flowers. I don't want to have to run around skipping cutscenes for an hour so I can do a new dungeon or trial.

I know people have said that the story has been amazing with this last patch, but I'm so far gone now that I've skipped every cutscene since level 40 or so, and I don't have it in me to play catch up. Maybe one day I will try to get into it.

The one story line i have been watching is the BCOB/SCOB/FCOB one, as that has been somewhat fun, but thats probably because I've always loved Bahamut in every FF :P
