Positivity!

I like a lot of things, but the community is the biggest one. I know it varies from server to server, but I honestly have never felt so welcome as a new player before (First MMO, First PC game). If I KOed on fates, a passing SCH/WHM would throw a res. I made the mistake of using a Fire II on a mob in Central Thanalan, and ran screaming while wasps tried to murder me, some random Monk ran over and killed them before I died. And my first run of Satasha I got this really sweet PLD that walked me through how dungeons work, and the bosses and everything (I now know this is not typical behavior, and usually you get speedrun tanks that ignore everyone because Satasha is so easy and no one seems to like it lol).

Anyway, it left an impression, and I've since made a lot of good friends through this game.

Been here since the beta on 2.0, and i knew the game way before... Despite i wanted to play, i didnt had a good pc at the time. There are a few things i dont like of the game and we could make a different thread about it, but things i like?

-Story.

I know the first part can be a bit heavy, or meaningless in some way some of the quests. But looking at them now, i know they have sense and value in the grouth of the character. An example would be the quests before facing Titan... Running around gathering ingredients, doing chores... And for what? The NPC wanted to teach to the WoL to enjoy life more often. You have your duties, you sacrifice for other, but they teach you to travel and look around... to enjoy life and the pleasures it gives.

I dont know why someone could play a game to skip all this without reading what they are fighting for, really.

And the feels...

-Graphics, music, etc.

The lighting effects are awesome, the music is... Well, it was good, and has moved to the better in the recent/past updates. With the new PC we can make they could release a HD texture pack or something to resemble 1.0 :P But thats a personal opinion on the matter. Overall, it's not that bad.

(And seriously, do you even look for imperfections in the mid of a fight?)

-NPC.

Well... there has been lot of talking in the forums about this matter. Like the Scions being... I dont know the word now, just woke up a while ago ¬_¬ lets just say they werent interesting at the eyes of some players, i dont know if i am talking of a huge population of the playerbase or not. They have added depth to them, you can read the emotions each time they talk, they move... An expample would be the voice of a certain companion in the lastest mission of the Warrios of Darkness. You can feel the pain in hi/her* voice while talking, about WHY he/she did those things.

The npc didnt bother me at the start, but right no? i want to know MORE about them.

*Not revealing who he/she is incase of spoilers

-HILDIBRAND!

Just one word: Awesome.



Overall, there are a lot of things that i like of the game. There are a few points i dislike like i said, but... I enjoy playing it. Sometime i wished i could restart it and play without knowing what i could encounter in the next scenario, or the next patch being so huge that it gave me months of playtime.

It has been a good journey, so far.
