okay so there is like some rose tinted glasses going on here, firstly. ffxiv has never been the best mmo. thats just not true. wow was and its subscribers speak for that
secondly lets break down your points

Aggro management

just because agro needs more management doesnt make it fun when every healer skill rips enmity off you and stances punish you for tanking or damaging

Cleric stance and Multiple tank stances (3.x WAR was the best job in the history of this game)

the stances were hated my dude, come on

Multiple viable builds for all jobs

not really from what i read, apparently people would still always gem in crit?

SOLE REASON TO PLAY TANKS

so, they still only had 1 gimmick?

Imagine if a franchise like counter-strike removed grenades in the name of making it “more accessible”

those are a bit more improtant in there than cleric stance was in xiv

Ive completly given up with pve content and have moved entirely to pvp. It's the only content in the game I currently enjoy. I didn't even bother with the last raid wing because the bosses were so horrible. If they're as bad again as they were in ew. I will not do them again. I do not enjoy these style of raids. I want arr style back
