Satisfying community (New player)

[LachleinStratos]

As a former WoW player I gotta say this is 100% what FFXIV is a better game. I was surprised how people would stop and offer some help (or terebinth if your gear has bad dyes) and want nothing in return. The simple "hellos" and "goodbyes" as well as the jokes and conversations in group content. It's nice to see a community that actually acts like a community.

they make so much difference that like you said we actually feel and act like an actual community.

Welcome to the game. Don't let the forum get you down, it's usually pretty fun.

Thank you Tridus / Cecelia and will do as long as we have people like you around !

Thanks for this thread. Things were looking way too grim recently. I really needed a thread like this. Also, welcome to the game.

No problem Balipu! I know how you feel and as long as we can encourage and keep others feeling better at times like these makes a huge difference to gaming experience!

I never thought my saying ty at the end of dungeons and {Hellfrog Medium} at the start could mean so much to someone

Nol Lac'nala thank you for doing such simple gestures as they really do make a big difference! It gives me more energy and a much better drive in my performance to me and others who feel the same way!

Welcome to the game, OP! I'm pleased you're finding it enjoyable thus far. I haven't played super long myself, but in the last few months since I've started I've found the game to be pretty enjoyable. Yes, there can be frustrating moments at times, but overall it's been fun for me so far and it's worth it for the runs when you get a fun, positive group. I hope you continue to enjoy things for as long as you play!

Thank you Chaotic Crimson , welcome to you as well! Yes overall its been way better than my expectation not in just the game but the community. Thank you for having people like you around and will definitely enjoy the game!

FFXIV is what an mmo should be and I'm glad I found it, the community talks to each other, helps each other but that's only possible because the devs understand that creating rules and systems to make people want/need each other's help is really really really important in mmos.

Welcome and I hope you bring anyone you know to Eorzea also, ffxiv is the best mmo and I'm glad more people see it. Also great to see another tank that appreciates the role of protecting and leading the fights.

I am glad you share your thoughts and happy things are the way they are now and hopefully stays like this forever.
Thank you for the warm welcome from another positive tank!

Dear Lach

I'm glad you're enjoying the community. I hope you continue enjoying it as long as possible. I know the forums paint a darker scene but like you, I actually like the community also. Yes we have our problem children but we also have alot of good apples here too. Kind of makes me wish we had "Tales of the community" thread that was just as ongoing as the Tales of DF thread but unfortunately, its not good news that keep things rolling lol.

But really I do hope you keep having fun. The community has a lot of wonderful people and you know, there's some regulars on the forums who love to help others when asked for it. Don't be shy and seek them out.


All the best

Thank you SenorPatty Vice i will definitely seek help if i do as im still quite new to the game! Yeh you are right and im positive all others players like you exists and thats what makes the community feels awesome to be part of!

As someone else who came from WoW straight to this game I can appreciate and echo your sentiments. Nothing is perfect, but it is much better than my experience in WoW was at that time (the end of Pandaria or so) and still continues to be. Hope you continue to enjoy yourself.
