Of course the back bone mechanics are important. If it wasn't they would be rushing the game out the door... yet again or even worse, left us with the old clunky system. Even the CEO of SE stakes a personal interest in trying to ensure they get the game to be successful because another failure on 14 and it would make him feel ashamed. The producers even admit they were playing OTHER MMOs just see how they work and what people like in order to make FFXIV better.
