It won’t happen, devs said years ago story is the most important part of the game to them. I think the bigger issue is the clash between two vastly different player bases. There’s those of us who are mmo fans and wish this game focused on actually being the genre it claims to be, and then there are FF fans who primarily only care for a story game and don’t actually want to play an mmo. As the former, its just better to accept what FFXIV is - an mmo in the strictest sense, but primarily, a single player rpg. With that last livestream, they’ve made it abundantly clear what their priorities are. *shrug*
