As others said, you may want to check your sources before you make such wild claims.
I DO agree on one point though. The menu's and such for retainers and whatnot is RIDICULOUS! I'm so tired of clicking my way through the damn menus and putting things away. It takes 5 clicks just to rent a chocobo porter. 1 or 2 of which are chat box skippers. Totally worthless clicks.
Forced dismount to talk to an NPC is great! Otherwise there would be a bunch of jerk offs standing on top of NPC's just for the hell of it.
if you have to click is not AUTO-skipYou can auto skip cutscenes already except for a few rare ones such as the intro. Just hit escape twice.
But I do agree with some of your points. Some of the issues have been acknowledged and are being worked on, like the Odin/Behemoth fates and the inventory stuff, but there is certainly still room for improvement.
they could do the same thing just standing there with the mount without talking to the NPC. there will always be jerks around.As others said, you may want to check your sources before you make such wild claims.

Well you made it to 50 so I guess you got your free month's worth at least.
So many inaccuracies in your OP. Don't think I'd even want to see whatever your three sites are as they may further incorrectly represent this game.
I have never heard WoW or Everquest to be considered sandbox. Ultima Online one of the defining definitions of SandBox but not mentioned sure... But really interesting....![]()
FFXI was Pure Grinding, my post says Grinding or H&S, its just an exampleno idea what you are talking about. i had to pay for my ps3 copy...
FFXI was not a hack&slash. just putting FFXI and Vindictus into the same category...ugh
World of Warcraft, LOTRO, Everquest, Aion, Tera are all Themepark MMOs.
Ultima Online and Star Wars Galaxies were sandbox MMOs...
not going to bother reading the rest of your post if you obviously have no idea what you are talking about, sorry.
also edited Sandbox/Themepark, to make easier to understand, Sandbox mean Open world where you can go anywhere and do anything. if you want to categorize any game now days they would not be in one Category... as of wow and ffxiv would be one a "Fantasy, open world with quest, following a Theme from previous games in the series" would you rather write all that or simple put as Sandbox or Themepark?
Indeed
OP if gonna write about something, at least be accurate.
That may be true but you're failing to realize that person on top of the mount or Gobbue mounted completely blocks the NPC. Someone standing there with a chocobo companion would still allow for the clicking of the icon above the NPC's head.
