FFXIV ARR comparecontrast to FFXI?

Who here plays A Realm Reborn, who has also played FFXI extensively?

I played FFXI a lot during Zilart, Chains, and Treasures.

I have questions. I should probably put one in the OP.

*disclaimer* I only played FFXI during the time when 75 was the max level. I'm well aware of how easy things got during WotG, and I'm not asking for any comparison for that time period.

Does it take nearly the same amount of time and effort to accomplish anything as it did in FFXI pre-WotG?

Is everyone just running around with every job at max level, switching weapons and jobs at every whim?

I'll think of some others if anyone posts, but if you can speak on the issue at all, please add any input you might have on what I'm asking here. i.e. tell me about differences in equipment, AH, economy, atmosphere, etc. that I might would like to know about.

I want to play A Realm Reborn, but I'm afraid that people won't really be as defined by their jobs as they were in FFXI... that it won't feel special.
