Satisfying community (New player)

[LachleinStratos]

Hi everyone!
Former WoW player here who enjoy playing as TANK role and just started FF14 and wow must i say the community feels GREAT!

I am also a fan of FF series and FF14 offered me the feeling of FF Dissidia where players from different realm meet in Dungeons and fight as a team (i know its the same in WoW) but everyone is so friendly (both NA & Japanese)

The differences between WoW in dungeon are:
1. Most players generally are more patience and wait for new players (me) to watch the scenarios/ cut scene

2. Since i am a tank, most players HARDLY pull mobs before i do, they wait for the tank (leader) to commence pull. And my god EVEN at elevators most players let me initiate it. I am mind blown of how considerate and mature these players are and at the same time making me feel like i am the leader of the team.

3. At the start of dungeon, most players GREETS! Even i dont do it myself sometimes because i forget (but il try to remember) These are called manners. Wonderful start for a dungeon. It just makes so much difference when people greet which puts a smile on my face to want to do a better job at protecting my precious party member and not let them down.

4. Likewise end of dungeon, MOST players will say their farewells. It literally makes my heart melt every time these players does it and it makes me miss them. Also no matter how slow the progression and how much we failed the boss, MOST players stayed positive at the very end of the run encouraging and congratulating together. That is what makes the game so satisfying to play. Did i also mention the victory fanfare of the team is freaking amazing i can NEVER skip that cutscene even if i wanted to.

It just so satisfying to see myself and my most patience and forgiving party members celebrating victory together! Also, a FF dissidia vibe where everyone goes back to their realm and hoping one day we will see each other again.

In conclusion, all those that i mentioned earlier that players do really makes a huge difference to my dungeon experience and i wanted to sincerely thank you all for it. i REALLY enjoyed my time in FF14 and will not see myself going anywhere for a while. Looking forward to meeting more new, friendly people in this awesome community and game.

Hello! We're on the same data centre so we might end up in a dungeon together sometime!

And yes I love the victory fanfare - I kind of wish it was unskippable because I like to watch it (plus it can be the only time you actually get a proper look at your team mates, and I like to see people's character designs!), but it seems like everyone else skips over it and then they're waiting for me to roll for loot.
