In this video we revisit the complete story of Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn, the game that rose from the ashes of Final Fantasy XIV’s initially failed launch to become the foundation of the game’s later success. In this regard, A Realm Reborn truly lives up to its name since it breathed new life into a game otherwise destined for the gallows. Nowadays, new players are often encouraged to rush the realm, finishing the game as fast as they can in order to reach the next expansion. Coupled with the fact that Final Fantasy XIV, on the whole, is fairly text-heavy, and that it’s very tempting to skip a lot of it, one would be forgiven for not picking up on the story of A Realm Reborn in its entirety – which is a bit of a shame since the story is quite engaging on paper and it lays the groundwork for much of what’s to come.
But don’t worry! If you need a refresher on the story of A Realm Reborn, this video has got you covered!

Pushing through A Realm Reborn it was a very nice story when thinking back I think what slogged it down was the middle contented to get to the next stuff
I think it doesn't add much to it's favor when the community just propagates the meme of "oh wait to heavensward, it gets so good at heavensward" when most of the stuff after a realm reborn needs that foundation from it to make sense or even have relevance.
Seems the even expansions tend to get the same treatment compared to the odd ones since 2.0 and 4.0 are building the world and narrative vs 3.0 and 5.0 had a conclusion to part of one already established.
I have a feeling 6.0 will get the same treatment since on paper, it seems like 2.0 all over again.
