Problem you're most likely going to run into, though, is that most players have been done the story for months now. Finding groups may be painful. I just helped a friend of a friend through it the other night, and our group was 90% people with maxed content / gear. Many were surprised to see someone needing to run through parts of the story for the first time again.
So if you do decide on picking up FFXIV, go with a high-pop server, and try and find a linkshell / freecompany that is both friendly AND helpful to new players. Good luck!
The open world is a bit barren obviously, but there you don't need to group up anyway so it won't hinder your progress. People do dungeons for all level ranges so it is not a problem at all to group up.
Using LOL is like saying "my argument sucks but I still want to disagree".
