I'd rather not waste my precious time grinding the same dungeons over and over for better gear so I can run those same dungeons 3 seconds faster. Once I finish the MSQ, unless there's any side content I'm interested in running for its story (as in, ONCE), I'm pretty much done until the next content patch.

So yes, I look forward to content where traveling in itself is fun and adventure, I'm in no hurry to get to the end-game grind, seeing as I'll just unsub once I'm there and wait until they've nerfed it in a patch or two. I'm tired of the content that caters to the "what's in it for me?" approach. So far, FFXIV's overworld has been almost completely throw-away, which is one of the reasons I've been having a lot more fun since I re-subbed to FFXI.
