I didn't ask for WoW to get a msq or to change its crafting and gathering to be classes and have gear. I went to play something else.
It wouldn't be a different game. There are ways they could still have a very full MSQ, letting it bring players to the various dungeons/trials/zones, but also making parts of it more optional. Perhaps keep the main story plot tied into the required MSQ quests, but then flesh out the story in full in linked mini-MSQ quests. Give them their own special icon to make it obvious. I'm sure there are also other ways they could manage it.

Now, I would guess that if I went through your post history, I could probably find at least one or two items that you've requested to be added/changed/tweaked in this game, right? Or are you trying to say that you are 100% satisfied with how everything is in XIV and wouldn't change a thing?

Sharing opinions on content and their handling is all we get to to here. Discussing with people with even a remotely open mind can be enlightening to both sides, but with this particular topic the opposition quite often just goes the route of "Go play another game if you don't like it!" which is hardly a proper retort.
