I dont disagree with that, but WoW isnt easier by any definition.
The big Difference, is Square-Enix and they Typical Asian MMO's are based around grinding, wether its a cultural thing or not I dont know ... an example is the legion of Asian MMOs that are pure pure grinds all the way.
Square focused on long grinding with everything, Traveling, Tradeskills, Leveling, Hell you even have to grind tokens just to entire a raid ( Burning Circle ) ....
While Blizzard and WoW focused on fun, Tradeskills required grinding but not near as much, and you got returns much earlier, Traveling is fast but not too fast, leveling is about the same pending, while you can solo on WoW if you party SUCCESSFULLY on FF11 you can reah max level quickly.
When it comes down to partying though, and raiding, WoW is just as difficult, in someways more so, more movement is required, both require consumables, both require everyone to be awake and alert.
But then theres competitive PvP , where WoW Arena is becoming an E Sport ( I hate arena though :( ) ... Battlegrounds and World PvP are fun now and then.
Everything about WoW is challenging yet fun, FF11 ... you work your arse of and still get screwed ... other than the few epic boss missions, its nothing but a grind fest.
