Hey all,

Brothers and sisters of MMO players. Take a seat as this might take a little while. After finishing my MSQ, doing all the raids and trials on at least normal difficulty i believe i can, with confidence say i'm also now able to speak about FFXIV as a game.

I've been a WoW players since 2005. At that time, i was 14 years old and i've been playing every expansion on/off ever since. I've read all the books and i've loved the lore all the way except the last few expansions. When i started playing FFXIV it felt as alien as it can be, as the type of storytelling and new player experience into it was absolutely night and day. More i played though, i saw how happy older players got seeing my reactions and feeling about different twists and turns and characters. I absolutely loved it all, but there was also this nagging feeling in the back of my head that "I could never present WoW lore and stories to any new player like this. Never." because the game is bloated and discordant how it tells the stories now. I had 15 years to learn it all, between expansions reading like 17 books and so, so of course it's clear to me what is happening, but seeing Youtube videos of you guys trying out the game no wonder you're lost there.

It's totally shame, because there are some really sad, beautiful, amazing stories there. Characters and a world, which has thousands of years of history written for it, but there is no absolutely way for new player to learn them without reading all the books.

I love you guys, and i'm pretty sure as WoW and FFXIV are different sides of the same coin after all, that many of you would fun delight and respect in the older brother, just like i found in this world. I mean it's you guys, if anyone at all that love good stories. I take both games as they are, and it's a great feeling to do that. Now after i've said this, i'll get to the point:

I noticed during my 7 month journey, that many of the people said they cried a lot for the story and characters, and it didn't have that effect on me. I was of course invested, smiled my jaw wide open to the end of 5.3 and so, but it didn't have that.. 15 years of emotional investment WoW has for me. I turned on some WoW music today and started thinking back all the stories i witnessed and i can admit giving few tears. I can't get that in other games, as i haven't been with the characters like you guys have been for years.

and to the real point! Sorry! I've been wondering, if there was any fantasy fans, who would like me to write out short stories with music, backgrounds and like summaries about some cool stories and characters we have in Warcraft universe? As many of you are propably waiting EW, like i am! It would give me something to do. Hints and tips on where to post them would be appreciated, as i doubt this is the right place for it x)
