Things I like about FFXIV -

The Music: it never disappoints me, and I'll buy those OSTs the second they're available for preorder. Absolutely love the music in this game.

The Zones: I love taking pictures in this game, and a lot of my screenshots are pictures of the zones. I can tell the developers put a lot into both the overworld zones and the dungeons, and my favorite part of new expansions is getting to explore the new zones. On alts, I explore them on foot to take in the sights again.

Ultimate: my favorite piece of content in this game. This game has stuff for everybody, and I really love that the developers took the time to develop a piece of content for the 1% that wanted something super hard.

The entirety of Heavensward: still my favorite part of the story thus far. I level alts just to do HW again.

Ability to have all jobs leveled on a single character: I like having options with regards to what I can play. With this game, I have a lot of options!

Job aesthetics and animations: I really like the aesthetics certain jobs have. BRD's original artifact gear is why I chose it when I started playing. AST's and DRK's animations are why I chose to level them after I finished leveling BRD. A lot of jobs have nice animations to them, and these animations sometimes attract me towards playing them.

Lore: I like how much lore is in this game, and how deep and intricate it can be.

DRK quests: favorite quests in the game. I like that they focus on our character for once rather than another character. And the Japanese translations I've read for a few of them have a much deeper way of conveying meaning than English localizations, which I appreciate even more.
