Final Fantasy 14: 10 Reasons It Deserves Your Attention In 2021
10. How Many Hours?!
Final Fantasy XIV is a game that simply never ends.
As is the way with scores of MMO's, the often grindy, never-ending game design is in full force with Square Enix' crowning game in the genre. Quest markers litter the land and Levequests are always available to make minutes turn into hours, so you'll never feel like there's nothing to do across Eorzea's vast and detailed locations.
Assuming a class early on wields far more fruit than just the way you approach combat, as whole stories are attached to each and every one (which can all be achieved on a single character), and all of which are better than they have any right to be.
As such, you'll spend hundreds upon hundreds of hours meeting new characters and embarking on new journeys. Quest design is far from diverse, and plodding across the luscious greens of the Black Shroud or the vibrant oranges of the deserts around Thanalan, but the constant bid to ascend levels and take on higher difficulty enemies is always a pleasure.
Should you decide to give Final Fantasy XIV a shot, it's certain that it'll be a constant in your gaming habits for months --if not years-- to come.
