  1. They are not missing much since the pvp in FFXIV is not all that great but they are taking steps in implementing changes to improve the overall experience in the next expansion, I hope that once those changes take place trial players will be allowed to participate =D

  2. I mean tbh u r a free trial and not free to play, u r only just trying the game u don't even have a lodestone cuz u don't have the licences of the game yet when u r in free trial, free trial players can do just main contents and that's it, to see if they like the game or not then buying it

  3. Man that sucks. PVP's a fun diversion, especially when you're out of roulettes for the day and just want some easy xp. I can't believe there's a sweaty enough PVP community in this game to bot frontlines of all things though lmao

  4. PvP has some nice glam stuff but overall you ain't missing much. I personally try to put some effort into the mode but I take it casual still. Like I've never touched Feast and my output in Frontline is just average I guess. Last time I played a guy got super angry at people saying they were just there for the exp and got quite heated but honestly I can see what they meant. If only they hadn't gotten so heated and insulted people (in causal Frontline of all places and I'm assuming solo queue). They enjoy Frontline and just find winning fun so it becomes exhausting when most people you get as teammates just don't follow ideas or obviously good orders and don't even do the bare minimum for the mode.

    Plus bots which I also find baffling when it's Frontline. Capping Wolf Marks isn't even hard.

    Edit:
    The shitshow went somewhat like this:
    Person 1- We should go NE for point
    Person 2- Shut up I do whatever I want (wasn't a joke cuz he argued against Person 1)
    Person 1- sorry I'm tryna win
    Person 2- most people this for the exp
    Person 1- gets heated and starts insulting Perosn 1 and people overall not doing bare minimum

    Im paraphrasing. There was way more banter.

    Anyways funny thing is we won. It's just that we had a bad start 🤷‍♂️

  5. PvP was enabled in the free trial before.
    We saw what it lead to, and it was utter shit.
    So now it's locked.

    It sucks for the free trial players who want to PvP, but I'd rather have it this way than having to return to the fucking bot matches.

  6. I feel this deep 😂 I was going to pvp on my free trial account for the moogle treasure event and once I unlocked it I was bummed out that I could not play pvp or get that glam. I'm on my free account now because I am debating to pay for sub or save that money for Endwalker. I have the new jacket from the event on my free account now, but want it on my main.

  7. Or… You know… Pay for the entertainment they're providing.
    If you're not willing to commit to that then you're not entitled to dunk on people for free 🤷‍♀️ (which, let's face it, is the power move you're aiming for)

  8. This game isn't developed with PVP is much of a consideration. Even with the new updates, it's still going to be a very small portion of the game. It really wasn't SE's main focus, just a mild afterthought
