Using myself as an example, I don't like XIV's story, but I've been around since ARR launch and beyond. I've also spent faaaar too much money on this game, which I think SE probably appreciates, but with that advice, I should have packed up 10 years ago and spent my money elsewhere.

MMOs have a lot of features, all designed to lure in different kinds of players. The MSQ is only a portion of what makes up this game. Now, for some people, hating the MSQ may be enough to make them go to another game, but for others, it's just a negative mark on a game they otherwise enjoy. It's going to vary by person as we all have different interests and expectations for a game. But to tell someone this game isn't for them solely because they dislike the story? That's just dumb.
No I think if story based mmos aren't his thing this isn't the game for him. If he finds it so bad skip cutscenes or buy a skip. There already are solutions to his problem. If those aren't enough ther mmos are out there. Call it dumb if you'd like. I don't need you to agree. After all it's opinions at the end of the day.
