You see, an MMO is pretty boring when you are just running around one-shotting everything with no challenge (Except when you are doing dungeons or raids solo, that is fun). Since I made the mistake of treating Final Fantasy XIV Online like World of Warcraft, where I was focussed on zone-style leveling instead of just doing the main story quests, having to go back at level 35 to do level 17 quests really felt like I was dragging myself through a knee-deep swamp. I know I gave the game a lot of praise in my review, but looking back, it was a huge undertaking for a new player.

Unlike the usual structured way I did my review for Final Fantasy XIV Online: A Realm Reborn, looking at the gameplay, graphics, sound, etc I’m just going to talk about my experiences with the games and how much my way of thinking when it comes to MMORPG games in general thanks to the experience that I’ve gained in the game.įirst of all, I’m going to say that Final Fantasy XIV Online: A Realm Reborn was one of the longest and most soul-draining experiences I have gone through since starting Final Fantasy XIV Online. Game Price: Free (Heavensward) / $19.99 (Stormblood) / $79.99 (Complete Edition)

Platform(s): PC, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5ĭeveloper: Square Enix Business Division 5 Name: Final Fantasy XIV Online: Heavensward & Final Fantasy XIV Online: Stormblood After 3 months of grinding like crazy through content, does the Final Fantasy XIV Online experience still hold up, or has the experience and hyped died down heading into Final Fantasy XIV Online: Shadowbringers and the lead up to Final Fantasy XIV Online: Endwalker? Let’s take a look. Now, only 3 months later, I’ve managed to get to the end of two of the expansions for F inal Fantasy XIV Online: Heavensward & Stormblood. It was only a few months ago, back in July 2021, where I got to the point where I could review Final Fantasy Online: A Realm Reborn for The Outerhaven after quitting World of Warcraft (and for good reason, both reviewed and ranted about) only a month prior. Man, how time flies while you’re grinding away at an MMORPG.
