The MSQ defeated me

I disagree. There's by far more combat in the average JRPG than what FFXIV has on offer. In the most recent patch the only mandatory combat takes place in the dungeon itself. Whereas if I fire up, say, the FFVII remake there's a much healthier balance of combat and story to be found.

Oh c'mon. We all have different preferences.
There is nothing 'healthy' about having more or less cutscenes.
