FFXIV Story. Do you like it as much as I do?

[Aramyth]

I agree, I am liking it so far as well. I think it's part of what's keeping me drawn into the game right now.

I'm don't really like the stories of FFXIV when i compare it to other FF games including FFXI, i understand its still at early stages but i hope it leads into some part where my character is unique and important instead of random token character they picked up on the streets of Uldah!

The cutscenes that made me feel like its a FF was the last mission with the Garlean emperor or w/e the guy with Gunblade.

The story so far is great imo, just not enough of it^^ ... and the missions for them are WAAAAY to easy >.< They're a pretty big joke. If they add more and tweak the difficulty so that it's half decently challenging it'll be great

So many of the missions are terrible. I have two left and the characters you get established with sort of disappear. Sometimes the missions advance the story by one entire sentence, and that can be really frustrating.

i like it story wise, enjoy reading and learning more. but like others said already it's short and i hate how they slowly put the story in little by little rather then with the box set u bought. very anoying. also i think it needs real battles and challenging ones like cop. but story itself i like and will enjoy learning more, ...long as the rest changes cause i won't stay for shotty gameplay. this is one of my favorite things in pve game that kept me in ffxi over ever wanting to play any other mmo ever. without this, i'll go try some others with the same shottyness to the rpg part of mmo's.

The story is good but for an MMORPG it is too sparse. There's not a lot about the main story revealed but more of the same (you are special with the echo, Garlean empire wants to kill you but there's worse out there) and that's pretty much it so far.

Not a lot of depth yet but I do like the story and it has awesome potential.

I completely, completely agree, the incredible story, the lore, the theistic world, are all the reasons I most love this game.

I like the story, as I always do like FF stories.

But... I kind of wish our avatars were less like a deer in the headlights and actually got more involved during story cut scenes. Maybe they do it this way because they don't want to take away choice from the player, but I'd much rather have my actions decided for me than to see myself stand there and let everyone else participate in the action every cut scene. I feel like I'm being led around by everyone. I felt this way in XI too. Anyone else feel that way?

I do enjoy it so far, but I wish they'd include the character in it more.
Rather than to have us look shocked all like "D: What is happening?!"

Yeah, I completely agree with you. And OMG your sig.
