Nov. 2024
I'm in my mid-40s, and have never played an online game until last year. I'd heard too many horror stories, and honestly, I was worried I wouldn't be able to manage the keyboard controls. My left hand is mostly brain dead. I jumped into gaming last year for Palia. While there's a much longer story to be told there, I will just say that the thing I was doing to try to relax and escape from the hellish timeline we're all living in, became more frustration than fun, more exasperation than escape. I stuck with it for a bit over a year, still hoping it would eventually become what the OG team had promoted. It won't. Not ever. So I asked some other players what game I should try next, and the most overwhelmingly consistent response was FFXIV. I started the free trial last week. I was terrified of the combat, and of having so many new things to learn, but found myself sucked in, all the same. Now, I will unashamedly say I am hooked through the bag. The story is captivating, and keeps me on the edge of my seat as I progress through the MSQ and gradually piece together the epic, sweeping history of Eorzea and all her climes and cultures, magic and mystery. I care about the world and the races that dwell within it, and want to know everything they will tell me. I care about how my efforts are intertwined with the main conflict that propels the plot forward and outward in an ever expanding, ever shifting, inescapably immersive lore. The artwork for both characters and landscapes is mind boggling in its beauty, complexity, and variety. For the first week, I don't think I've managed to play for a single hour without gasping in awe as I summit some new horizon and experience a new part of Eorzea for the first time, or without grinning in delight at some tiny detail that I very nearly missed. The mechanics are immense, but masterfully introduced so that even the newbiest newb can fairly easily and almost entirely naturally learn as they play. Believe me, if I could understand all of the different systems in place in less than a week, anyone can. Yet those systems and mechanics, at least so far, don't feel stale or boring or rote, and there is always a challenge to be had for those who are driven by that need. I've never reviewed a game before, and I definitely didn't intend to compose a novella, but I couldn't wait another moment to sing the praises of one of the most skillfully - and obviously passionately - created worlds I've ever encountered in any sort of fiction, in my 40+ years of reading fantasy and scif, and watching shows and movies in the same genres. I only wish I could rate it higher!

Ever since I jumped from another (famous) MMO to Final Fantasy XIV, I never looked back. Not really. I regretted I didn't start sooner. This game is far more superior in almost every aspect of it. * Stories - plural! * Side quests - with quality instead of just "go fetch stuffs there and bring them here" * Dungeons, Trials, Raids - they all have very high replayability * Graphic quality is superior - not just how good it is, but also its consistency. I rarely (or never) see stuttering. GPU usage (percentage) is very flatly consistent. * Jobs/Classes - I am happy I only need one character to play all of them * Race variety is really nice - who would have thunk that they would talk to a potato * Game stability! * Communities are protected from abusive chats * Runs on so many platforms from the start * Continuous improvement - who would have gone back to fix the (legacy) dungeon support! Play with NPC to practice. Awesome. * Gathering, Crafting, Events - too many things to do in the game * Apartment (do you own one?) and House * I don't do PvP but yeah What I have trouble with: * Finding friends to play dungeons/trials/raids with on my free time. hehe. So. Add me as friend: Vivian Zhou in Kujata (Elemental). I main White Mage. But also play Black Mage and sometimes Gunbreaker. I am back from a year of hiatus (there goes my house) and picking up the Dawntrail.

The main story is very slow at first but it’s great world building. Heavensward is peak story writing. Play this game like you’re reading a visual novel or just reading a good book. You can play no charge all the way up to Shadowbringers, which is hundreds of hours of content.
