Thankyou so much for this! I’ve been playing for 12 hours or so and have just done the first three dungeons in MSQ in the different starting areas - guides like this are the things I keep coming back to as refreshers! I’m loving the story already and I know it’ll only get better. See you when I (eventually) get to endgame content 😄
Thanks for this! Watching this as I download the trial version of the game. I come from DCUO and SWTOR. Tried Guild Wars 2, then saw a video talking about the best player count MMOs of 2024, saw this on the top of the list and the guy explained why it's so good. Sold me on it. haha. I think this has potential to be my new MMO home. I'm busy with work, but looking forward to trying this one.
I've tried getting into FF14 a few times now, but it's just not entertaining playing it solo. I've never been one for tab targeting either, so that makes it all the more tricky. With the upcomming expansion I'm tempted to do what people suggested and play through the base game like a single player story focused game. Then by the time I finish it I'll be used to the mechanics etc.
Im coming back from like 2021, only have a lvl 45 WAR. Im playing it like a single player game now, my pace, my fun. Turned off all player names so they seem like random NPCs going about their days.
This helped me on the UI and “telegraphing” fronts. Thanks! I’ve tried playing on and off, and decided just to play through the trial on a few classes and see how I like the “JRPG” part
Great video! I've been trying out the trial version the past couple of weeks to determine if i want to start a subscription. I've played a few of the larger MMOs; New World, ESO, WOW, DAOC, and even UO. The one thing that's really hard for me to get over is that 1 character can do everything. Do I need to carry all the gear I keep outgrowing during leveling to eventually 'break down' via crafting, or should I just vendor it? And is it really worth it to vendor the low stuff?
Thanks for making this. Returning player from years ago and boy it's changed. I'm at the end of heavensward and I see MAYBE one player in those maps. Where is EVERYONE? So lonely out there.
I know this game is not conducive to creating more than one character, but is there a way to share keybindings so you don't have to redo them for a new character? Like, if I wanted to create another character on a different data center.

signing up is the hardest part...it was horrendous for FFXI and they just never fixed that part of it.
Hi!! I'm still trying to get ffxi to work.. do you think you could give me any tips maybe-? I'm so sorry, I'm just trying to get into final fantasy :3
The customer support has ALWAYS been atrocious. I finally decided to just create a whole new email and account.
im trying to sign up and i feel like im going insane
Thank you, 15 hours in and still figuring things out
Nicely explained - almost makes want to try to get into the game for the fourth time.
I swear, say "JOB" one more time on my day off!

I was locked out of playing for 10 years. Now I can finally play

Very helpful, thank you
Much appreciated. I'm finally getting through the game after a frustrating early quest.

the GCD in FFXIV is so long because the animations are so long. it gives more time for flashy attacks.
hey how do you make your menu and other boxes that dark grey colour? mine is light blue. thanks!
I thought the first big block was the same as FF11 just not as crazy... registering your copy and first log in.
just downloaded the game, thanks for this.
Great guide DB. Hope some noobies find this in the algo
i still dont have DQX western release so i suppose ill start FF14
Jesus Loves all of you guys
No
