I agree that FF is a much better game than EQ, graphics, quests, classes etc. But the one major flaw in FF is the grouping and experience system, is too tight. You can only group with people within 1 or 2 levels from you, which makes creating parties hell. And in the fact the english speaking players are spread on all the servers, and that the game was only realeased in US and Japan (not Europe and Oceania (that's Australia/NZ and other contries in the region) and you have a hard time getting a group if you are english speaking and not in US timezone.

My main character is a Dark Knight (and they are not evil like the Shadow Knight I play in EQ) and after 40 it became a pain to level up, so much so that I semi retired for a while and reactivated my EQ account. I did have a few friends, and become a member of a great LS (guild) that had many Japanese players (great players too) but I can not close the level gap and group with them (most of them are close to 70).

FF XI:One flaw to rule them all.
