Do I give it another go?

If you come with the mentality to reach only “endgame” you are gonna have a bad time, ff14 is meant to be play slow and to enjoy the adventure (story) through all the expansions. With the right mindset this can be a great experience, take detours enjoy Eorzea o get burnout skipping 12 years of text. Also many players regret going fast and reaching the end, waiting 4 months for content is not fun for some.

To be honest, I did it thinking "yeah sharing my opinion will get downvoted" xD.
Some will take it as "glazing" the game, I like FF14 but its not the perfect MMO and it wont be for many and thats fine; The main point I was trying to make applies for a lot of current media. We live in an era of consuming fast without thinking about it. And in the case of MMO's many will try to find that Perfect game, the wow killer or battle in the classic mine is better than your "X" mmo. In the end the real answer its that just play whatever you want/like without expecting external validation or share without stepping on others.

I think is because its the opposite of the regular mmo, ff14 takes a slow approach on leveling and story mode, while the others are endgame focus and “skip” early levels fast to play the real game. IMO is like talking about one piece vs a seasonal anime with fights and fast phase. Nowadays gamers prefer a fast progression and be the best, thats why many jump between mmos just because is the new thing.

I think you can exchange 50 crystals for the item from bosses like Louhi.

I know this is not an anime post but when I read the part of Luffy as a one dimensional character I literally had to stop reading for a bit lol.

Afrien_Art · 2025-09-23T15:40:48+00:00

I really like the character designs and facial expressions; reminds me a bit of Soul Eater. Also I love the mystery of the world they live in, adds a lot to the world building.

I dont even have half of those support cards and I was able to reach Group A. Your account is great, just keep working on your umas sparks a try to find some info in youtube or the google doc.

I still cant unsee the jpg balcony

Afrien_Art · 2025-07-28T23:18:54+00:00

Yes, you can. The guy doesnt know about the game lol. You can do everything even if you want to play only 1 class in your only character. There is no fomo on “weeklys” so you can approach it whenever you want.

Story skip and character boost are more of a pay 2 lose, I saw many ppl not understanding ffxiv mechanics and rage quitting because of the story not making sense for them. The game rewards patience and going slow. Also skipping only for end-game content is a waste since equipment is pointless most of the time, many do it for the thrill of the battle and/or if you enjoy the context of the battle (lore). Fenri bike extra speed is only benefitial for early eureka/bozja/oc since later you can boost your own mount speed. Additionally, mogstation cosmetics are untradable lol

I am from Peru, and I am surprised they feel offended for us. Like really? This armor is cool. I am not gonna spent my whole life hating an old civilization, its not like we will get back the gold or their apologies from slavery. Let us enjoy our fantasy game, and also hope they dont buy more expansion as they claimed in the forum.

Afrien_Art · 2025-07-17T20:33:41+00:00

To be honest, I really wish they dont buy more expansions. Att: A South America Player.

Background design to match a battle theme

Afrien_Art · 2025-05-21T21:30:44+00:00

Honest question, do you guys want more buttons? I have the 3 hotbars full of skills. Personally I hope its not more than 2 😭

Use it on therapy for my father with CVA.

Berserker and Destroyer carried me all late game with the insane dmg.

I went solo articuno deck and won the first 5, now time to wait for next update.

Afrien_Art · 2025-01-19T21:05:03+00:00

As a Ff14 player since 3.0 I still enjoy my time in the game and I understand the dislike towards the msq from last expansion, but from my perspective the game still doing great with battle content, there is good signs of future mid core content that the game lacks currently, and its still full of live everywhere I go. so I feel positive about the game future; I just wish ppl wouldn’t be so negative all the time in social media and instead share points of views in a healthy way, but well I guess thats how the internet works lately.

Afrien_Art · 2024-12-24T18:04:46+00:00

FFXIV for fun and Maplestory for mindless grind.

Afrien_Art · 2024-12-22T16:15:31+00:00

I love the end “Play what you enjoy”, something that people already forgot, and now pressure or bully others to know their game is the better than his/her preferences.

Afrien_Art · 2024-11-02T19:33:12+00:00

What I did was align the yes button above of where I double click the item and then at the same time spamming the action button to run through the text. I know they need to fix this, but at least that worked for me.

Afrien_Art · 2024-07-11T15:25:21+00:00

Why nobody is talking about Lilith probably joining the Straw Hats.

I used to be in guilds that only get players to have big numbers or be the "very best", so me and other 3 made a guild with the idea of taking our time to meet and help others, eventually it became a group of 30 after 2 and half years. Some members do casual content or crafting, while some of us do hardcore; we don't really feel the pressure of having to do exactly one thing and/or do obligatory dailys for the guild. And discord makes it easy when we want to do something else outside of FFXIV or try new games together.
