It took me about 5 times before I was able to progress to a point where I could finally feel invested, thankfully it doesn't take too long to get to that point!
I really enjoyed going back to this expansion, I don't really enjoy the questing or general content but paying more attention to the story has my brain buzzing the yum sensors!
Paying attention to the story really pays off in different ways

Although in some parts the quest design is awful, the characters and plot threads are good enough to keep you interested and I can't wait to play the expansions this game has to offer
the entire first half of ARR is just
"do you guys have any fun?"
"we have abysymal dogshit."
it starts as the most boring game you will ever play and it makes it so fucking hard to reccomend.

this took me 2 years to get through
I played it for many months and very little by little and I really liked this wonder, it easily became the best MMORPG I've ever played, I'll definitely keep playing it.

Although many tend to forget (or not play/watch a summary) the beginning to this massive story, I certainly won't. Slow paced, but delivers on the final stretches. while introducing some of the most memorable areas I've seen. boasts a masterful soundtrack, good story and writing overall, as well as an incredibly rich world, A Realm Reborn is not something to underestimate or be forgotten.
Yeah Final Fantasy XIV is a game I actually really enjoyed. The combat, class system, and MMO aspect of the game made me really push through a realm reborn. I'm going to be mostly talking about a realm reborn so here it goes. Oh my god ARR is too damn bloated with fetch quests that I really takes a long time to get to the good stuff of it. If I had to be honest the game did not get good until the post game content of ARR which was a lot better and felt like everything was moving at a more faster pace. The story in pre ARR I didn't care for much but the story content leading up to the next expansion had me very interested so it felt it was worth going through all the tedious busy work. I'm definitely looking forward to Heavensward after finishing a realm reborn
quite bloated with fetch quests and other mind numbing tasks but what really sucks about it is the sheer amount of quests like this in the msq. along with a very boring story and cast at least upfront, it can feel like a slog to get through at many points. however the last stretch of the game is VERY good with satisfying boss fights and gameplay sections along with a solid ending. gameplay throughout is generally good if not a bit too easy but that's changed by the end. overall i think it's pretty much the definition of mediocrity, if there was simply less filler the score would go up but if the gameplay wasn't as enjoyable throughout it'd be lower. just an ok experience and a decent setup for the rest of the expansions which i'm really looking forward to given all i hear about them.

Dude nevermind, I WASN'T EVEN FINISHED! Story was definitely long but needed, a slow-burn ends with a great ending. The trials and raids I did were pretty fun, got to familiarize myself with how those bosses work so I can grind them later for events. I really cannot wait to start Heavensward.
Un remarquable exemple de MMO très ouvert aux débutants, remarquable dans son écriture d’univers et sa bande son, capable d’être traversé de bout en bout sans recourir à trop d’échanges entre joueur si on le souhaite. Petit bemol sur certains arcs narratifs qui, bien que retravaillés depuis, restent encore trop longs
Se eu falasse que tive uma boa experiência jogando ARR estaria mentindo. Pra ser sincero? Bem fraco, pouquíssimos plot points se destacaram e foram poucos os momentos de emoção, que ficaram em grande maioria reservados pro final ou post ARR, e mesmo assim... Meh. Até diria que não vale a pena o esforço, mas as expansões seguintes são tão boas que vale sim.
the things i'd do for a timeline where ff14 stayed dead after 1.0 because if i have to hear one more annoying person tell me "oh it gets good 200 hours in" despite me having played it for a thousand and still being bored for most of it im going to shit a house. how do you make an ff game this so obviously ivalice-coded so fucking boring and cookiecutter and derivative of earlier titles. genuinely the only good things I can say about it are the hildibrand quests and the aforementioned piggybacking off of stuff from earlier games. but erpers and people who refuse to touch any other ff game because they're allergic to turn based combat (despite how overwhelmingly menu heavy ff14 is outside of combat by virtue of it being an mmo) will still tell you it's peak. please just play dragon quest 10 instead.
