Final Fantasy XIV Online

🗓️ Aug. 5, 2025
⌛️ 1262.7 hrs (and counting!)
🎮 PC

Yes, I’ve been playing XIV since last April and finally caught up on MSQ this summer. This game’s many references is actually the reason why I decided to play the whole (mainline) series!

FFXIV is worth the hype, as long as you don’t get filtered out by the very slow base game. And while I’ve taken plenty of breaks already, I don’t see myself fully dropping it anytime soon. I’m excited to see what comes next!

XIV isn’t all MSQ though! It’s got a very welcoming community, and tons and tons of side content! (Look at that playtime!)

I’ve bought a house, attended weddings(!), done island sanctuary, exploration zones, trials, alliance raids, etc. There’s so much for a new player to get into it’s insane!

MSQ can sometimes feel like a slog, and certain stories didn’t land the way they were probably intended, but when it’s good, it’s truly excellent!

Combat takes a while to get complicated, which was nice as an MMO newbie, but sucks when leveling a new job. It really shines in Dawntrail duties.

🎮 Switch (Pixel Remaster)

With this game I think I see the series identity start to take shape - it’s the first appearance of moogles! And the job system! It’s the basis for Shadowbringers! But, man… FF3 kicked my teeth in. multiple times.

The story is about what I’d expect from a late NES game (and thus, a step down from FFII). Overall, did I hate it? No… but I don’t see myself returning to this one

The job system is fun to mess around with, the world is bigger, and the music is great! But I wasn’t feeling the multiple difficulty spikes, especially the World of Darkness with its damage sponge bosses. I wanted to turn the game off in there!
