For the last few weeks I’ve been on a journey to find a great game that would keep me busy for tons of hours.
Played a bit of OSRS, got back to WoW, tried Arc Raiders… it was alright, but eventually got bored after a few hours.
I decided to give a shot to ffxiv as it seemed to check all the boxes I was looking for. Grinding game, immersive, rpg elements, beautiful graphics. I played ffxiv a loooong time ago around launch time I’d guess but could barely remember anything.
And omg I’m so impressed. I’ve got a pretty good gaming pc so I’m running everything maxed out. The graphics are sooo good for a MMO. The game also has a level of depth and complexity that I really enjoy.
I think that will be my main game for at least 2026.
The only thing that is not necessarily a great fit for me (but not a deal breaker) is that I’m generally not into lore and story I a game and I still have the habit of skipping all cut scenes. I know it’s a crime as everyone praising the cutscenes and story. I should try to watch them and stop skipping / rushing it.
TLDR: game is amazing, so glad I gave it another try 15+ years later!
Summoner level 42, MSQ 25 ish.
