Playing a MMO without the MO, that sounds like fun, not.
Anyways, almost everything to do in FFXI and every other big mmo is centered around getting loot to improve your character. If you take away the best thing worth doing by giving players all that stuff when they make their account what is there to do when you hit 75? Hurray for reaching the exact same plateau as everybody else so that I can use the items everybody else already has, let's force everyone to use the same race and character model too!
Let's also give everybody a free relic 5 weapon and full af2 set for their job when they enter Dynamis for the first time.
You might be onto something here.
