If you can get past the UI, I recommend at least trying FFXI. The stories are so good, the XIV writers spent half of SHB and EW adapting them. Kato did the scenario for the vanilla game and the first expansion, Rise of the Zilart, and his world building brilliance is at its best there. The world is so real and immersive, and there are all kinds of connections between world events and characters both big and small.
I'm good for a while, but I'll probably go back to WoW eventually. It's the only other MMO I've played (far more than FF14) and it's basically comfort food for me. A bunch of friends also still play it, so that's a plus as well.
