Does Final Fantasy XIV SUCK? Final Fantasy 14 is one of the biggest MMO’s currently on the market. Alongside World Of Warcraft, Black Desert Online, Runescape, Destiny 2, and more, it’s tough to know which game to invest you time into so today I’ll give you a review of final fantasy xiv to see if it’s as great as many proclaim it to do be, or if it sucks. Recently Square Enix unveiled their newest expansion, Endwalker which looks to bring not just the finale to the pre-existing story, but also a plethora of gameplay changes to will boost the overall experience of the game. Alongside Alliance raids, an insane amount of dungeons and bosses, tons of different classes and jobs, a large pool of weapons and armour to pick from, and Final Fantasy 14 online may very well be the next game you sink hundreds of hours into. hope you enjoy 🙂

5 of my friends tried FF XIV. 2 quit during ARR and 3 quit before completing Heavensward due to burnout.
It’s a good game that takes too long to get to the good stuff. Thanks for watching 🙂
P.S. During the recording of the video I was around 10 MSQ’s away from Stormblood. Thanks for watching 🙂
Short answer: yes! will this game be worth your time the next 3 years? short answer: Yes.
can someone advise new player on buying ff14? I just joined trial version and wondering where and how to buy it fully? I heard some package includes expansions plus 30 days free subsctription but I dont see it on main website
800 hrs here. All classes lvl 70.
2.5 second global cool down "confusing if you've never played Final Fantasy before"? No, this is not a regular FF game, it's confusing either way lol
This game is great, I'm going to play it again this week after taking a 6 months break.
its waaaaaay too flashy for my taste
Game is looking great, I tried it when it released more than 10 years ago, must be a completely different game today
you can turn off or limit the effects from other people's spells to not blind yourself. Its under character settings
Man that just looks like a final fantasy mod for wow, looks really anoying and shit!
Ff14 is not a game you play if you're concerned about time, lmao. I just want to see cool, super high budget Square Enix cutscenes. Why do I always have to talk to cardboard cutouts who give out dozens of fetch quests first 🙁
…women play catgirl too…
and in higher lvls you will start seeing more WHMs that let the tanks HP drop just to see how far they can go without them dying
and uh.. if you didnt do so already, you can limit the effects of other players in ur settings
10:30 Hello my name is Azu and I got exposed.
LOL Dragoon
The downvotes are from ERP virgins from Limsa LOL.
it's funny but 10:05 is literally actually why i'm resistant to playing this game.
sometimes I ask myself…
was it really necessary to become a cat girl? Yes, yes it was
13:50 definite ly a warrior main right there xD
is there anybody here got free trial account?
Truth be told it does suck. Once they integrate pvp into the game beyond what it is now it could be better. For now he is right it is a waifu simulator.
Some classes got btw lower global cooldowns so the type of class decides how fast u wanna play.
However, I like to play this game
fun review :)))
I really tried to enjoy that game. But I don't. I hate the easthetics, I hate the movement, I hate the constant lag, I hate the ridiculous amount of VFX every spell has, I hate how clunky it feels, I hate the 2.5 sec GCD.
I really tried, but after 50 hours, I can definitly tell this is not for me.
U can turn off other players animations in the settings and it can clear up alot of the Field of View. Or watch the fireworks either works
The only issue I ever have with ffxiv reviews/first impressions (in general really) are when the person presenting it is already going into the game with a preconceived notion vs. just going in with an open mind.
With FFxiv in particular, Shadowbringers has brought several new "reviewers" out of the woodwork. More often than not, they all parroted the same thing – ARR is "slow". First and foremost, the issue is the preconceived notion mentioned prior that the reviewers usually hear from their friends, followers, and such. To be more specific, it almost always boils down to Shadowbringers is just top tier and ARR is just the boring slog you have to go through to get to it. Such notion is purely subjective of course, but the ACTUAL issue is again – the preconceived notion. Moreover, reviewers are going into the game making an unfair comparison of the base content vs. literally the most recent content and/or endgame. With ANY game worth it's salt, OF COURSE it'll get better over time. The flaw in the "issue" being presented, is that these reviewers are mostly in it for the destination vs. the journey. To put it more bluntly, they simply aren't being honest with themselves.
If you're going into something with the intent to just get to what you assume is "the good stuff", your "review"/first impression will almost always show it via you reviewing ARR (the start of the game) as a means to an end vs. actually critiquing it. On top of that, it shows when unfair comparisons are made between ARR (the start) and Shadowbringers (the end).
In defense of ARR, I don't believe it is boring or slow. I would agree that it is a slow start, BUT I take issue with the fact that too many "reviewers" are conflating slow with boring and/or bad. I could understand if ARR took at least 25% of the expansion, 3+ hours, etc. (something like that) to ramp up, but this is simply not the case. The real fact of the matter is that many people making this claim either have a short attention span or are going in with the preconceived notion I mentioned earlier.
In stark contrast of the reviews/impressions being presented by those hopping on the Shadowbringers bandwagon, ARR is just starts out with slow combat. Other than that, the story pacing in done very well. The only thing that make it "slow" or a "slog" are the occasional fetch quests you have to do, which are nowhere near as numerous as the new wave of players would have you believe. In my humble opinion, I think this all stems from older players trying to get their Call of Duty type shoot em up friends into the game by showing them all the shiny stuff in Shadowbringers and telling them ARR is more or less the "slow/boring" means to an end as it were. Getting new players into a game and trying a new game in general are both good things, BUT people really need to find better/more honest ways of going about it. If I could have it my way, I'd tell people to stop looking at endgame/recent trailers and assuming that it's the way the WHOLE game is. Also, I'd encourage people to start going into games with an open mind vs. a mindset of getting through the bad to get to the good.
i think in an MMO players should not be able to wear baseball caps, ruins the immersion
Great review. I beat shadowbringers a few days ago and I agree with everything you said here. The story/gameplay does suck in the beginning but only gets better as you progress in the game. I also have two questions. Are you still playing the game and what did you think of the heavensward story?
Damn I bet this game has egirl rpers too like in WoW for golds.
I respect your honesty.
Man, if I liked skins I would have had a lot more fun gaming the last 8 years.
FF14 ticks most boxes for me, but the only thing that is holding me back from playing this game is the combat. Action combat is simply superior than tab-targeting.
'combat is slow but eventually its get faster'
'skills has global cooldown but eventually you get more skill'
when is that "eventually"?
near the end game..
correct me if im wrong..
u gonna pay for base and bunch of dlcs seperately and you call that good price??
Have your sins been forgiven today and forever? Think about this. The God of the bible, the One True God made us to worship him, obey him, and enjoy him forever. We break His laws daily by not putting Him first, not thanking Him like we should, we lie, we lust, we have sex before marriage, we dishonor our parents, we covet things other people have, we take God's name and use it in vain, we use it in a low manner, sometimes as a cuss word, (God is holy and even His name is holy), we don't love like we should, etc. In doing so we're saying He's not a good provider, He's a liar, He's untrustworthy, He's not worthy of praise. All these things and more are counted against us. The bible says God is the just judge of the world and one day He will settle the score for all the wrong we've done. God is holy meaning He is righteous (morally perfect in thought, word, and deed) It also means He is set apart and higher than us. God being good, must punish all sin or wrong doing in the world. This means that if you sin one time God will cast you in hell for eternity. Because He is good and He doesn't turn a blind eye to sin. But there is good news. 2000 years ago Jesus the Son of God came into this world and lived a perfect life ( He never sinned once) and He died on the cross taking the wrath that we deserve and paid the penalty for the sins we committed. The bible says that if you will repent (confess and forsake your sins) and trust in what Christ did on the cross (He took the wrath of God that was meant for you and I) then all your sins will be forgiven and when you die you will be in heaven with God and all who believe for eternity. Jesus died and on the third day He rose from the grave. Get right with God today don't wait. Once you die after that comes the judgement. Hebrews 9:27 It's the most important thing you can do. You must be born again John 3:7 If you repent and trust in what Christ did on the cross it shows that you've been born again or born spiritually. Right now you're dead in your sins and you can't see the beauty of Jesus Christ but after you trust in Christ all the things you hate about God like obeying him, serving Him, loving Him and others, reading the bible, praying and going to church you will love to do those things because God changes your heart. That's how you know you have been born again and forgiven. Please think long about this and ask me any questions you have as this is the most important thing you can ever think of in your life. An eternity in hell (darkness and a lake of fire the bible describes it, with weeping and gnashing of teeth) or an eternity out of that place and into the loving arms of God who is infinitely glorious, has infinite knowledge and has infinite power to do all that He pleases. You decide. Have a great day!
Oh so play a game because I can play as a hot chick?? really
I think I really wanna play it now
200 hours ….. That's not enough I have 2700 hours.. maybe I should do a real review….
So, it’s literally just WoW? UI and all. Which is good, I love WoW, but it’s too expensive and repetitive atm
I’ve tried installing the game… didn’t work.
