Final Fantasy 14


Final Fantasy 14 is yet another great release in the Final Fantasy Series.

Final Fantasy 14 starts off very cutscene heavy as it introduces you to the world of Eorzea. Depending on what you decided to use as your starting nation, you will be treated to one of several story arcs using your created avatar as the main character. While I cannot comment on all of the adventures you may encounter, nor even say too much about the one I embarked on myself since it is spread out over your journey to level 50, I will say that what I saw of it thus far was very interesting. It’s not often that I play an MMO and actually care about the lore of the world that I’m in, and FFXIV did a great job in getting me involved in the world of Eorzea and the characters in it.

That said, since the narrative is sandwiched between huge chunks of grinding and leveling, it will likely be months before you ever uncover the whole story and whether the tale as a whole is even worth the journey or not. Though if the core experience was all about the story, this really wouldn’t be an MMO, so I’m impressed that they even incorporated this much. All in all I have been impressed with the story and the overall gameplay of Final Fantasy 14.
