Another thing that I think is a good selling point of this game is, unlike in most MMOs you don't have to log in every day to keep from falling behind. YoshiP has been asked by fans if there are any plans to add more daily stuff to do, because they were getting bored, and he basically said, "Nope; we don't want you to feel like you have to log in every day. If you're not having fun right now, take a break. The game will still be here for you when you feel like you're ready to return." This is great for someone who works long hours and/or is married with kids, and just doesn't have the time to play every day. It also keeps the game from feeling like some chore that you have to do, which helps prevent burnout.

I'm a sprout and I just made it to SHB. Honestly, the music was one of the main things that sold the game for me. I recall specifically standing in one of the lower level shroud areas, running around and the music was SOOO beautiful...I had to stop and just... 😍!! Paired with the beautiful graphics and the story, I was sold. ARR does take a while to get rolling, but when it popped off, so did my edges and I've been hooked ever since.

Figuring out which class is fun to you is also a big part of whether the game is fun. I know it sounds self-explanatory but knowing what you want will allow you to level the class for the job.

Girl, thank you so much for this video! I haven't played ff14 for about a year but have been a casual player since Heavensward came out. I've been feeling the itch to get back in and play before the next expansion and you're video sold me haha. I hope I'm able to catch a stream sometime!!! ♥

Nicely done! Your description is very much on target. Thank you! 👍

The base game of FF14 is actually on HEAVY DISCOUNT at the moment so it's actually a really good time to buy on top of having the fantastic free trial. She didn't go into it in the video but there ARE some restrictions when you're on the free trial and if you start to chaff against those restrictions before reaching the end of it but you already know that you want to continue playing the game then it's a good time to buy right now even before the new expansion drops. Because of the sales paired with the hype of a new expansion the game will always start to buzz again with a lot of traffic in the final few months leading up to the expansions release.

As great as the story is, I think it's getting a bit too much now. I'm not too keen on inviting a friend only to send them off to play alone for 500 hours just to complete the MSQ. They'll need to find an elegant solution to this problem because every expansion and content patch makes the MSQ wall ever so higher for new players.

Yes. There's never neen a better time imo. I am so excited for dawntrail. I started in 6.2 and only finished msq right at the release of 6.5, so I'm a little late to the Endwalker party. However, this feels like the perfect time to be where I am. I just got into savage raiding, and I plan on spending all the time between now and Dawntrail practicing and getting clears. When Dawntrail finally comes, I look forward to being there, on release, doing the new extremes and savages.

I started ARR for the first time last summer, and i just finished the Endwalker msq , its now one of may favorite final fantasys and i dont even like mmos , i cant wait to experience a whole new expansion on release day, this game is way better than i ever gave it credit for

Well then congrats!! You are now a gamer!! 😂😂

I only started playing at Endwalker release because my friend bought me the entire game for Christmas. The only reason I hadn't started sooner was money. I ended up blowing through the story to endgame content in 7 months, and that was actually paying attention and not skipping anything. I play pretty much every day. If I miss a day it's not because I don't want to, but because there's just not enough time between work and socializing to log in. I thought Realm was interesting but admittedly a bit dry. Heavensward is my all time favorite part of the story content and I find myself going back and revisiting some of the cutscenes through Unending Journey. I also love just running the Heavensward trusts just so I can spend time with Aymeric and Haurchefant. And the story just gets better from there. I would consider myself causal and I do love getting certain older stuff when I do my roulettes ( I know how much people groan at the Crystal Tower Raids) and it's fun getting people talking and joking around in chat during that content. I'm not hardcore enough for Savages and Ultimates but with the new Dragonsong ultimate that dropped recently, with it's famously alternate timeline story, I have a mighty need to do it. Not for the bragging rights, I don't care about that honestly, but because of the alternate possibility. I don't consider myself good enough to do such content, but I do have some friends who are better at high end that say they'll help me attempt it. All in all, I love this game, it's become my life. I will sing it's praises from the mountaintops. Just try it, the first part is free! :D

The free trial alone makes FFXIV worth trying. And it has something for almost everyone, between the great story, the crafting system, and the high-end raiding content. IMO the most egregious lack is a social performance mode for Dancers similar to what Bards get. It could be set up as a combination of the dancing system SWG (but without the buffing/healing SWG dancers provided) had with the Blue Mage spell collection system (but unlocking new dance moves to use in putting on a show instead of spells to use in combat).

As a relatively new player that has played for about a month now, I would say 100% is worth playing, especially considering I came from Destiny 2, and in comparison to that, it's so good, I love Machinst class its so fun to play as in my opinion

Me and my mates migrated from WoW and Lost Ark to ff14 and never looked back tbh. Made a lot of friends, working towards relics, mounts and savage/ultimate grinds and chilling in the company house bathtub while waiting for the duties. Much less grind and much more fun compared to what we went through in WoW/Lost Ark and we prefer it that way. But each to their own of course.

Can you please tell me where you got your chair from? It looks amazing and I want one.

I love FFXIV but I just came back after a long break and I'm trying to make my way through endwalker starting at lvl 80 and I am still waiting to actually PLAY. I'm enjoying the dozens of hours of cutscenes with quest rewards giving just enough gil to pay for my constant fast traveling, but after an entire evening of effort I only spent about 30 mins doing anything other than clicking through cutscenes. I'm looking forward to finishing the MSQ so I can actually do something 😋

It's a good time to catch up if you're just starting. I'm waiting for Dawntrail to drop because I've done everything I'm interested in and there isn’t much new content being added.

It is a very slow experience, which is why im glad they made it to where you can play up to stormblood for free. Not having to pay for a sub has made the game a lot more bareable since I can play at my pace rather than worrying about a sub.

I couldn't have said it better myself, Avy! I discovered FFXIV back when Endwalker first released, and honestly, I couldn't get enough of it. Well, at least until the massive queue times came about... Other than that, someone could consider a lot about this game exciting. Now, to all the other readers, if you are looking into getting into Final Fantasy, I suggest you use the free trial like Avy suggested. From my experience, if you rush to the end game as soon as possible, you will get burnt out before the subsequent expansion pack releases. There's a lot, and learning it all at once can be intimidating, so take your time. Yoshi P. (the director of FFXIV) has even said he wants you to play other games and not feel the need to spend the next 2 years of your life on FFXIV. Nowdays, I need help finding the motivation to play the game after making the abovementioned mistakes. I played the game for 11-12 months non-stop every day, always rushed through new content, and only paid attention to the story until recently. Do I regret it? Yes! I have taken more time to enjoy FFXIV's content and not drive myself to burnout.

Does that free trial cover returning players who weren't level 70? I played back in 2015, and my character was max at the time and I am considering returning. How hard is it to figure out where you were in the story?

Few moments like the lull between two major expansions are best to play a game like this, esp considering endwalker is the conclusion of the first story arc - the time from here to dawntrail is The Objective Best to start playing, imho

I love it but the biggest setback is gonna be the main story quest. To go from new account to finishing the msq will take you hundreds of hours. Im talking if you play daily/almost daily you will spend MONTHS trying to finish it. I got back into it recently having not played endwalker and there was alot of post shadowbringers quests. It took me doing this pretty constantly 3 weeks. After that i just felt burned out because as much as i enjoy the main story it has way too much filler. When there isnt filler its great, but there is so much go here go there etc stuff that it really starts to drag you down. However thats really the only negative i can say for this game

may i ask what shader you're using in this video like at 4:45? thank you ^^

Just learn from Persona 5 though, if you're going to try FFXIV. And that is "Take youe time" because I think the main reason for burn out in gaming in general is rushing things and playing too hard.

For any new players: us long time players really do love helping all you little sprouts :D

3:48 .. well almost in a whole seperate universe... Ivalice and Zodiark from FFT/XII are in it (along with a special bunny guest).

I just started and I loves it. Nearing the end of Heavensward, in Odin Server.

The thing with the story... yes, you can skip it. And you still have an amazing game to play. I dont advice it, simply for one reason: unlike pretty much every other MMO out there, FF14 takes its story serious, and you feel it. Nothing is out of place, nothing is just filler, everything will be answered and the things, that arent, will be answered come time. There are no open threads, the devs actually care about the world they have created, the characters living in it. They invite you to join with them on this journey, discover all the secrets of the realm and beyond... Yes, you can skip it, but rest assured, its worth your time. Its absolutely worth your time. Every minute, every seemingly useless cutscene, every side quest, every dialog... they all create a mosaic of another world that you are now a part of and its worth to discover, not just for the raids and gameplay.

Honestly I'm interested in 14 because of the story I've played alot of MMOs and didn't enjoy most of them I loved phantasy star online 2 because of the story and before they revamped everything in the nsg update the combat was really fun and fluid I soloed or solo queed every form of content at the highest levels and then they just made combat unfun and made the best movement tech in the game the sprint button and I got bored along with resetting all progress and basically restarting the story but honestly when people talk about 14 and the different mechanics and the story it kinda gives me hope I'll find something worth my time like old pso2 in an MMO and it's probably one of my first downloads when I get my steam deck and join the PC master race

The opposite is the case. The game is very straight forward. You have no talents diversity like in other games, you don't can't even pull as many mobs as you want due to invisible walls. You can't overpower or underpower any boss because the game doesn't allow you that. You can't even join with too little or too many healers or tanks. The game dictates everything for you. On top of that the content is VERY limited. FF14 is basically the opposite of complex or a large MMORPG.

I just finished Heavensward and I'm excited for Stormblood

I love this game just sucks trying to find an active FC I am on the hunt currently.

I just built a new PC. It was half inspired by my desire to play FF14 with the graphical upgrade at as high a fps as possible; without CPU limitations. Still waiting on that graphics update, but I'm excited and ready to go.

Another point (mostly) in favour of the game is its accessability, not only to new but also disabled players! Full disclosure, I am not disabled in any way that impacts gaming. But an FC mate of mine is legally blind and they not only play through the 'normal'/casual/main story content without issue*, they regularly take on some of the hardest fights there are in this game (and stomp them)! Over the years the team has gotten better and better at impelemnting design choices that make the game accessible, such as announcing boss attacks with visual AND audio cues, clear and distinct markers for attack types, colour correction options if you're colourblind like another player I know, etc. But again, I'm not the target audience for these features, so please chime in and add to/correct what I've said if you know more! *I do know of one caveat on this front: In the latest expansion, there is one solo duty that breaks with that accessible design philosophy. Here is hoping that SE will react to player feedback, and tweak it to make it so that anyone can play through it, soon!!

I hope it does not become a Star Trek prodigy just like Final Fantasy 12 storyline was consider to be a Star Wars prodigy.

Even though, the new world is representing the Americas or even the Caribbean or Pacific Islands. I cannot think that the development team are big Star Trek fans as well.

Well im playing it as a new player the story is good. There are some moments where im like, stop drag this, but when the plot hits you it hits you.

I’ve never played an MMO before, so the main thing that’s been keeping me from playing is the way the gameplay looks. All these different things that are shown on screen are just a little bit intimidating tbh

i tried starting twice already its so tiring the questing and leveling is extremely boring and the fighting system feels not satisfying at all with the insane long global cooldown. also having to position as a meele is annoying. idk maybe the game is nice for socialising but for someone who wants fast paced satisfying gameplay this is probably not it

I remember when I joined back in Stormblood the free trial was limited to two weeks. Granted, in that time you had no restrictions up to level 50. It convinced me then to buy the game; can't imagine how more involved you can get with the unlimited trial up to level 60. No game is for everyone, but FF14 does a very good try at it. I'd say the story in A Realm Reborn/2.0/Up to Level 50 (whichever metric you want to use for "the story when they relaunched the game")) is actually the weakest part of the game's storyline... but by "weakest" I mean "as good as most MMORPG storylines", so while that part might not be inspiring, it's a good, solid foundation to build on. and WOW, did they build on it! So yeah. If anyone wants to try it, try it; you likely won't waste your time. Even if you don't like it, at least you'll know you're just not going to get into it and won't waste money on it.

videoda neden Türkçe altyazılı yok😢

Ff14 veteran here. The pros! The MMO is solid for one playthrough of the story. The music is fantastic! But i would say it starts to have generic soundtracks around shadowbringers. The classes are well attuned but they play almost exactly off one another. I can on each finger on one hand how many unique class rotations exist. Thiis game has some of the Greatest and most awe inspiring fights i can imagine. From mechanics to soundtrack to boss design. But you can see a shift of quality around shadowbringers. Again, the game started to become casual oriented around shadowbringers. Which isnt a bad thing at all! But it did affect a lot of the quality of what an MMO would offer for the future. And it's telling people are upset since 6.2, we have had a decline of player retention unfortunately That's it on the pros The cons.. After that, there's not much really going for it. Right now, the MMO is struggling to give players, new and old, any decisive content to really wanna waste your time away playing it. Yoshit P has introduced glorified 4 man content as an excuse to add more variety to their MMO but its reception is always in the dumps Their latest ultimate fight is known to be the only fight where people were just sighing away why they wasted so much time on an awfully tuned fight while the devs stripped away everything that made it fun. There's no class build outside of crit stacking. You dont get a say in the matter. The devs have actually made every other stat useless in the MMO. No, thats not a joke. They have deliberately destroyed any class building in a MMO which is crazy to me! FF14 has unfortunately become a r18 simulator with how many mods exist to create such an atmosphere. Its all you will see on most websites pertaining to the FF14. You may hear about the game having a great community and folks enjoying the game to no end, but that's far from the truth. Reality is, many players stick to mods to make the game better. And the community is significantly worse than wow. And much more strange. Think of a hivemind that never found its queen and you only ever see young people who have a fixed vision of the world. Boot it up and youll see what i mean! All in all, i love this MMO but the devs did not love me wasting away my time in it. Its a media that i picked up in the start of heavensward, fell in love by the middle of heavensward, found a home during stormblood, saw a future of amazement in shadowbringers, and eventually deeply regretted staying during endwalker. End Walker being the expansion story that had made sacrifices from previous expansion stories worthless. I hope you enjoyed!

The game doesn't tell and the community suggested only weird or creepy RP activities. Sad to see that nothing changed. I was hoping that the devs might have changed and for once gave the players some content to actually play the game... it's insane how FF14 community is the only community that is willing to pay for a game that you can't really play... literally doesn't work in any other game.

Hello villanious, you seem an expert around MMO and I want to ask for advice. I played Guild Wars 2 for like 200 hours, I think, I had 100% world completion was halfway through all the story journal and did daily Fractals but one day I realized the game just wasn't fun to play. The combat gameplay was kinda stressful and the world itself looks awful. It's way too bright, the virtual sun hurts my eyes and there are too many effects. I think OSRS looks better than GW2 considering how many mobs they've thrown carelessly into the world in GW2. I deleted my Norn and never come back to GW2 I also despise the ascended/exotic gear grind. It feels like a singleplayer achievement hunting game. Then I found OSRS. It is a cool game but I can't see myself paying membership for OSRS I also think I'll get bored out of doing quests and maxing stats to 99, also the game is very basic. Then I found Final Fantasy 14 and the world looks beautiful and cozy. You can see the dark nightsky and even see the stars. It just looks pretty and cozy, nostalgic to me. Should I give Final Fantasy 14 a try or wait for Path of Exile 2? I have never played Path of Exile or Final Fantasy... Is FF14 worth trying or better wait for PoE2 or what???

I'm not into anime or manga or Japanese culture at all, I like their monitors. They make great monitors. Despite not being a "weeb" I can highly recommend this game too. The story is one of those that stays with you for a long long time, it's not a "fastfood" story. The gameplay also has so many good designs. I don't really like the graphics though, it's kinda bad/ok'ish to be honest. The pixels in some cutscenes are so terrabad, like a game from PS1/PS2 sometimes :D

Yes, it is worth playing at any point of time, the best of the best.

and don't remind me of great community of terrible players who don't want to learn, want to get carried through even easy content and lash on you for attempting to teach them...on max level. this community is not just toxic, its a gaslighting passive agressive toxic positive community, its literally the worst i saw in any online game. i prefer to be called slurs if i screwed up than this bs.

Have you played Guild Wars 2 ?

I played it. It's not a good mmo imo.

I just started playing playing on Xmas. The free trial is insanely worth it. I’ve since subscribed. Good bye, social life!!

I rly like the game sad thing is I am now homeless and working on getting back on my feet got a new car now looking for a house

Yeah

yes

Oddly enough my partner and I both really disliked HW, maybe even hated it. But we enjoyed something about literally every other xpac. I realize I’m the minority here but I do not think we needed an entire xpac to get Ishgard to join the alliance, nor does the war we help them finish really ever get brought back up in any meaningful way. Estinien is great but he doesn’t even really show up or become a Scion till late STB/SHB. I feel like most of the major plot points of HW could’ve been summed up and we could’ve focused a bit more heavily on finding the rest of the scions/The warriors of Darkness which were just kinda shoved in at the end.

is is worth to play if i dont care abt story? im the guy who skip every dialogue and story

Yes.

It's actually funny how FF14 community is so far away from reality and lives in their own bubble. You can watch a billion FF14 videos and you will never find one that actually covers what you can do in the end game (besides some very abstract and meaningless versions). After I quit EW because I finished the entire content back then within one weekend, I really didn't know what to do and people only suggested some very weird or creepy RP activities. I later heard that FF14 devs wanted to implement something like M+ in WoW. Now, again, thinking to try out FF14 and looking for some videos what you can do in the end game nowadays, because FF14 content was always VERY limited. In fact it was so limited and short, that even Yoshi P once publically said people should play something else until the next big patch. Why is it that pretty much not a single FF14 content creator properly covering the activities in the end game? Is the content THAT bad (and/or meaningless or boring/repetitive) after hitting max level?

I don’t even need to watch the video to know the answer is yes!!!!

Why these types of games characters always has to be so small to see? Make them big like in GTA5!

I’m big stupid and just straight up bought the game through Steam so I didn’t get to take advantage of the free trial. If you’re thinking about trying the game, USE THE FREE TRIAL!! Even if you think it will be easier to just buy it and pay the subscription. You will save so much money and decision making if you use the free trial.

Yes and super yes lol

Blood for the Blood Lily, cult....

Yes. That’s it.

I was one of those ppl who hated MMOs. 17 months ago I tried the Free Trial as a massive FF fan. 2100 hours later, it's my favorite story in any media. I also intended to only do this as a Single Player. but now I'm doing Ultimates, and loveeeee my FC

Out of idle curiosity, why did you add a bunch of e's on love? It's a silent letter so you could add 100 of them and the word would still sound the same

Yes, it is. 6k more hours later, still worth it.

You did the meme 🎉 everyone She did the MEME

Human 1: "Why are you playing this?" Human 2: "Because I can, and it's free" Human 1: "Wow! That's just like the FFXIV free trial up to level 70 including the Heavensward and Storm Blood expansions" I'm curious if anyone will get that reference. I'm not sure how obscure it is.

As a WoW player who tried (but stoped) playing FF14, my 3 biggest issue are (mostly the first one) : - It feel more like a solo game with mmo elements than a mmorpg. I've had friends playing it, and unlike WoW, we can't level together, it's mostly "yea dude, do your msq for like 80 hours, and once you finished it and are 70 than we can do raids and dungeons". In WoW, when with guild or friends, we can just create a character and chain dungeons together and quest together from lv1 - I'm not that much into jrpg design/story (catgirls, everyone looks like kpop signer, power of friendship), but more in the DnD design (beards, european folklore monsters, european design for characters) - the community is awesome and super helpfull but men, why is a good part of it horny catgirl or horny dragon girls staying in capital cities But the biggest FF14 wins to me are : - The helpfull communities - the game not feeling like a second job and respecting player's wallet and time - it's pretty even if the characters look like they have a plastic skin

I forgot the game's biggest W : you can play all class on one character !

There's never a bad time to jump into FFXIV because the story encourages players to play at their own pace and there's systems in game to keep all content alive and relevant.

😂 Lmfao I really was just about to click away.

Sadly it seems a bit dead. 2y ago I started to play on Odin, it was tiiming with life, players everywhere in starting area and towns. 3 days ago I made a new character. For 3 days I played and saw only one player.(wasnt even a new player, just a dude backtracking missed things)

I find those comparison weird, i feel more at ease with XIV art style then other game such as Genshin, Tower of Fantasy, Code Vein art. Then again , i found WoW very cartoonish. Maybe im the weird one.

There is no other mmorpg that allows for such deep interactions with other players, and for such freedom in creating a character that actually looks good. Its one of the mmorpg today that has living social experience for people.

Ultima Outlands probably does that better but it's scripty and complicated.
