It’s been more than a decade since Final Fantasy XIV originally launched, and nearly ten years since the realm was reborn into the massively popular MMO it is today. Whether you’re a longtime Final Fantasy fan or just interested in giving the Critically Acclaimed MMORPG a try, you’ll discover that it’s vastly different from both other MMOs and even other Final Fantasy games.
