They did not say 4.0 would not continue 3.x's story. Only that they felt they might just not make 3.x completion a requirement, and instead offer a "summary" of it for those who might not wish to get the expansion (which should be something OPTIONAL in a game). They admitted that 2.55 + 3.x completion would be too insane of a gate for accessing an expansion's areas and jobs.
Which, I wish they had realized from the beginning >.> *glares at all the alts who can't access Ishgard yet*
Though, if there was a good thing FFXI did, that was offering new unique storylines at each expansion, and I would be happy to see XIV do the same.

To be an interesting, intriguing, well-written character, there needs to be something to allow the audience to relate to them. That is what the problem is with who wants their character to be "perfect". Perfect characters will never be strong, and strong characters will never be perfect, because WE (those who read, who watch, who RP) are not perfect.
