Before I can embark on my WoW to FFXIV journey, I must create my first character…
This all came from one simple question. Can a Classic WoW player start playing Final Fantasy XIV now and be “ready” in time for the new Dawntrail expansion?
This is my journey from WoW to FFXIV: A Realm Reborn, leading on through Heavensward, Stormblood, Shadowbringers, Endwalker and finally into the brand new expansion, Dawntrail.

You've taken your first step into a larger world
To answer the question "Can a classic WoW player start playing Final Fantasy XIV now and be 'ready' in time for the new Dawntrail expansion?" The answer is both no, and yes. No in that, you can't get through the entire story (and this IS a story based game) in time and in truth if you are engaging in the world fully as you progress then it may take you until the NEXT expansion to 'catch up' in story and world exploration.
But YES you can be 'ready' in that, this game isn't like some MMORPG's whose "true game" is "end game." FFXIV's "true game" begins in character creation, and never stops, only evolves and adds on. So to that end, you are already ready! Now enjoy. 🙂
