The fact that I can finish stuff for my main job each week and have the freedom to do whatever I want on alt jobs/glam hunt/etc, is one of the greatest pros of FFXIV for me. Beyond doing my weekly stuff, I don't feel obligated to do X chores every day without pause for fear of falling behind. I get to do stupid silly things without fear of "not progressing my main". Time spent leveling other jobs, gathering, crafting, glam hunting. etc isn't time wasted because I can actually finish my weekly things.
All of This!

I like the fact that I don't feel like I have a chore list and a gun to my head like Modern WoW. The fact that when I am done for the week I can just chill and do whatever. I don't want this game to a second job that I pay for.

Currently replaying FFIX on my downtime.
