I'm gonna assume you started to reply before I edited my post because I agree with you. The game can be spammy but I feel thats a flaw in yet another incomplete system in XIV. However, I wouldn't compare that to XI stating it was not slow in pace or claim XI was faster than XIV. To me the battle pace and "spammy feel" of XIV are two different issues. XI was less spammy but it has a slow battle system.
