If you're into pick-up groups with a group-finder, nearly all content in Elsword assumes a group, and you can get a group for whatever you want in a minute or so.
it'd still require to buy all DLC'S and quest packs, right? if so I'll pass, I absolutely hate this monetization. Why not just do it like WoW, just pay for newest, pay a sub, enjoy all content
Purely group focused to do almost every aspect of the game? None of those anymore. But almost every game has a group finder now a days so take your pick if you're just wanting to spam instances with people.
Vanilla World of Warcraft emulators - They run great, and healthy populations, don't let anyone tell you different, been playing them on and off for over 5 years.
Everything else sold their sole to "child like easy" and cash shop gambling, even the classics !
It's not cheating when Mainstream Triple A is screwing the people.

Cheating? what you are suggesting is illegal, its a line many aren't keen to cross.

You can play legal with the 5 year old's, the OP is asking for a game that can be played with groups.
Don't forget to pay for the "Boom ability" that can take out the entire zone in one shot. $15.00 in the cash shop !

Initially its only the initial content so no. Going forward:
DLCs no - the server its sub based and all DLCs come with a sub. Expansions who knows. They may decide to include those as well. Afterall the Quad Pack (first 4 expansions) was on sale last year for hardly anything - my memory says $2.50 - so its certainly something they might do.

Yep, the server needs a sub, and sub has all besides the expansions.
However that $2.50 would be an overkill it was $10 at its bottom, with the expansions themselves on $2.50 (and Mirkwood was even $1.50 once for a short time). I agree it's definitely possible they will have a sale at the time the server will go further in the content. I don't think they will include it into the sub, since the new server won't be separate and content is account-wide, if they give it for the sub, it will be unlocked on all servers as well. They don't mind putting a sale on it from time to time, but giving it away for good, just by a one-time sub, is very unlikely.
FF14 is actually awful for that. Most Quest content is solo and the dungeons are short and people just rush through them. I actually think WoW with its Mythic+ content and BGs/RBGs/Arena is much stronger for this than FF14, honestly,.
Not really a great game to play for group play, unless you raid. More for RPers, IMHO.
LoTRO hasn't aged well :-P Mind as well just go play EverQuest, frankly... Or EverQuest II.
IMO, the biggest issue with group-based MMORPGs is that they tend to drive fickle players away the fastest, because people just love being able to log in and not waste ANY of their time LFG. Many people are already working with limited playtimes. Wasting a day looking for a group for a dungeon you need, and not getting it done... that does not bode well for the game.
Remember when Gates of Discord launched for EQ, and we would spend days looking for groups for Tipt and Vxed (completely overturned and too difficult for an "average group" until they nerfed the difficulty)...

That decision is many months away though.
