A Really Shy Person's Experience In This Game

Me and my friend found this game like 2 years ago and we tried the trial version and then made another account just to get to play more since at that time we didn't have the means to play this game(a credit card) then we forgot about it.

2 months ago I remembered about this game because the youtube algorithm decided that I need to play this game regardless of how many recommendations I ignored. So I got the game and all the extensions. I swear to god I was never expecting this game to change how i behave irl and online, the only mmos that I played a lot before were Vindictus(really fun but no sign of life) and WoW(being a healer in this game made my insecurity go way up) so I was really surprised when no one said anything when I fucked up or made a mistake, hell I think more of them helped me understand what to do and so on(I'm really sorry to anyone that helped me and taught me mechs and stuff but didn't get even a thanks because I don't know how to people in general), it took a while tho to understand that people actually want to help others in this game. After 3 weeks I got myself to greet people when we get in dungeons and using emotes which are a god sent for someone who gets a hearth attack when they get a fc invite. 3 weeks in I decided to face my fears again and try to be a healer which actually forced me to say another word except "heya" in chat, "sorry" , I apologized from post-ARR till I finished Heavensward. Then I took a 2 week break in which my family realized that I was trying my hardest to socialize more than usual, when they asked me about it I didn't even realize it, so I blame this community for mercilessly showing me kindness.

Just finished Stormblood, the story is one of the best stories I've played in a long time, the gameplay is nice and really well done, I really like that if you pay attention to the cast time you have a timeframe in wich you can move so you can dodge and can combo some abilities one after another. I still get really nervous when i say something in chat and getting an fc invite is still a possible death sentence but I think I'm slowly opening up and getting used to it. I'm gonna have a break for msq even though I want to see what happent next a lot and do some questing, I really want to do a harder susano because susano is the funnest thing ever, honestly there's so much to do besides msq I get really overwhelmed but I think I got this.

Thank you so much for being nice, helpful and tolerating a healer that doesn't know how to communicate properly, sorry to all the tanks that had to pop their undying ability? thingy? because I was to slow or when I died at a boss because I'm stupid and sorry to that one fc that I quit one day after joining because I got nervous about communicating. Sorry for any broken english or something like that too.
