>Create your own character
That's the same as every other heterochromia catgirl or protagonist midlander.
>Levels
Don't matter because content sets you to the specific level it expects you to be able to clear it at, so you never actually get stronger, just unlock more content
>Stats
Item level is the only stat that matters, and when comparing pieces of the same item level the answer is always, ALWAYS Crit/Det. There's no choice or build variety here.
>Extensive amount of skills
"Do damage", "Do damage but only after you press your first ability", "Do damage but only after you press your second ability", and "Do lots of damage (two minute cooldown)", wow what an amazing variety of skills you've got here anon.
>Gear
See above where stats are mentioned, there's no functional difference between pieces of gear, no sidegrades, no unique items.
>Quests
Walk to place, talk to NPC, maybe kill 3 mobs, quest complete, wow what an amazing quest. There are a single digit amount of quests over the entire 10 year history of the game that actually have the most basic degree of puzzle solving or interesting unique mechanics to them.
>Story focus, with both good characters and story
Anon, you can't genuinely believe this after 6.2, and you SERIOUSLY can't genuinely believe this after dawntrail. There are no characters anymore, just one dimensional cutouts that repeat the current writer's political beliefs and prop up his OC catgirl.

I wouldn't even call FFXIV a game, let alone an RPG.
