I was arguing your position on forum boards a few months ago talking about how great it was that FFXIV doesn't require teamwork to play the game, and that it would bring more players who prefer a solo JRPG experience, however, after spending 60+ hours with the game, it just isn't the same experience I had when it drew me in the first time, thus I'm a bit dissappointed. If you enjoy the game, then that is ok. It is an enjoyable game and I would recommend especially if you've never played an MMO, this one is easy to get into.
As for "forced teamwork", this is another reason to join a group of friends or seek out a guild of players you are comfortable with so you don't get the screaming assholes. Also, part of the reason I tried to form a guild for us all on pixlbit but horrible launch ruined that.
I'm just saying I've had enough for now. I'll jump back in once PS4 version gets announced and it has fancy new graphics and new content to poke through.
