Is that really any different than any MMORPG though? No offense, I've played a lot of them casually, and the only one that I could actually play casually and feel like I was accomplishing something was WoW. Yeah, it has the problem where you need to play a lot if you want to "compete" at a high level, but it's still fun without having to do so.

I frequently play for hours all by myself because none of my friends are online, and I can complete quests and whatnot while doing so, and I don't have to spend hours to get a feeling of accomplishment. If nothing else, I can usually log in for forty five minutes or so and just work on my trade skills or something.

I guess, to sum up, my experience is WoW has less of this problem than all the other MMORPGs, but it is still a problem because of the genre.

Though, granted, I never played FFXI, but from what everyone else is saying it has a lot of the same problems.
