What's your favourite thing about FFXIV?

[Hurp]

Hello, I'm new to FFXIV and this forum and would like to hear your personal opinion on what your favourite thing is about FFXIV, optionally what your least favourite thing is about it too!

My favourite thing so far has been the boss fights of both dungeons and raids, they have have been amazing so far, and I expect I'll feel the same about end-game raiding aswell (I'll have to admit that the stories I've heard about Titan and Ravana on extreme and Alex Savage scare me a little too, in a good way I think)!

So far I've just been sucked in by the game and are having a blast leveling up with so many options to what I should do and where I should go next, but my least favourite thing is something so small as getting dismounted everytime I interact with NPCs.

So what's your favourite thing about FFXIV?

Tanking.

Simply being a tank has allowed me to grow a nice sized community of friends, allowed me to take the Free Company on silly adventure's such as Twintania Sync and enjoy a night of wiping before one shotting it the next day with the same people.

By keeping a positive and friendly attitude and encouraging those who are struggling during a dungeon or raid I can change a parties attitude from potentially toxic too helpful.

Nothing to me beats the sense of being in control that being a tank provides and for some reason it always feels easier to get people to join in content if you're a tank forming a group than any other role.

What else do I enjoy about FFXIV?

Doing silly things and taking screen shots of the shenanigans... Also dyeing everything Pink.

I like best that there is no server-wide chat like general or trade.
Meaning less trolling, and the world feels more realistic.

Yeah the screenshots. I have 4 gigabytes of screenshots of very important, awesome, or funny moments. I also enjoy that I can do everything on one character.

Oh and gathering and crafting is actually fun here. Well as fun as it can be.

And the size of the content patches.

Only thing I don't like is that I will never be able to experience the first half of the story.

Hands down my favorite things about th game are the story and localization. The writing is genius, funny, and even the most insignificant part of the game has some story or lore nugget attached to it. It makes the world feel alive and full of secrets.

My least favorite part about the game are the boring stats on gear and lack of any significant way to customize the gameplay of your character.

Favourite thing Hmm... The trials, probably.

We need another tier of Titan! I miss him.

[AskaRay]

Fav is glamour...and screenshots
I'm guessing if I deleted my SS folder I would suddenly have tons of space on my harddrive again.... sigh. Oh well.
I also like how you can change jobs; no need for fifty characters anymore



Least fav is the forums; you should probably run while you're still pure and innocent

Bosses. The more challenging mechanisms the better ._. .

They should make a ravana riding bismark extreme boss. I'd pay to play that xD.

The music.

Fave: Screenshots, the community, music and all the things you can do in game.

Hate: All the fetch quests, they take the fun out of the main storyline quest and turn it into a chore. If they would just reduce the amount required to progress and leave it to the important ones I'd be happy. Go get your own favorite food/random object NPC!
