Perhaps because I started at a time when it didn't even have PvP and when it started getting it, it was... well, we all know it doesn't have the best track record here. I loved PvP in other games to the point of playing on PvP servers and spending my day in all sorts of battlegrounds and arenas. But I suppose when PvP got interesting I was already too used to "FFXIV is not for PvP, find other things to do".
The new payload mode looks really interesting though and I'll definitely give it a go. I've heard lots of good things about PvP gameplay for healers so that and the new mode might finally hook me.
Yeah, I wouldn't say this game has great PVP compared to some others I've played, but as a healer it definitely keeps you very engaged - with the caveat that up to now they've been the primary source of healing, whereas the changes coming will mean other jobs can do this too, although they're adjusting healer kits to account for that with more of a damage focus. Should give Sage more of a spotlight to shine now too. We'll see if the new mode improves on FL to the point that it encourages participation.
