Not to sound overly blunt, but if you are someone who "doesn't really care for story," then you should probably stay away from a story-centric MMORPG. There are countless MMO titles out there that all cater to different player preferences. Some are raid-centric, some are PvP-centric, some are RP-centric, whilst others are sandbox-centric. FFXIV caters to the story-loving player. If this is not your forte, you're just going to suffer more and more with each expansion.
