I agree with this. One of the things I miss from FFXIV 1.0. It makes it feel more like a world to me.
Mainstream really isn't the word I would use for that... They turned the otaku meter to an even higher mark. That meter was always there unlike some people claim (like PSU's attempt of having an intro and ending after certain parts of the story to look more like an anime episode). Anyways, that only funneled the content to an even more specific group which is part of why it gets so much criticism.
