FF14 has pretty much all the same quest types (granted, the last one you see more often in fates than actual quests.) The one thing that WoW did have less of than FF14 was the number of back-and-forth "talk to this npc, then that one, then the first one again" quests. But SE seem to be cutting down on those here, so that's actually kinda nice.
But the quests in WoW are at least worth doing them to earn exp and gold. Here they are just an annoying thing that unlocks stuff sometimes.
