That's not true either. The opening intro the game pretty much sets everything up. War, crystals, beastman invasions, alliances, etc. FFXI has the best intro of all the FF games in my opinion. And the actually storyline starts right off the bat when you first join the game and choose a nation to fight for.

If you want one word that captures what FFXI is all about I'd say "valor" would be a good one. The idea that you are playing as a brave and valiant hero comes up quite a bit. Fate of Vanadiel rests on you! sorta deal.
