A monthly fee might be a bad idea right now, since I just recently quit my job.The free trial allows you play for free up and through the game's first expansion. So you don't actually have to pay for a good long while (unless you tire of the free trial social limitations). ApherosyLove posted... Will I even have time, between moving soon and job hunting when I get there? Probably not.Absolutely. It's very pick up and play friendly, TBH. FFXIV actually respects its players time for doing content. --- http://na.finalfantasyxiv.com/lodestone/character/3853476/ Neo Yokio is a masterpiece. - Popcorn_Fairy ... Copied to Clipboard!

If the trial didn't hook you I'd say don't get it.
I fell into the trap of wanting to love the game. It has a lot going for it. But I just could never really fully get into it. Even now I see these topics crop up and I'm tempted to resubscribe but I know i'll play for two days and quit again. --- FFXIV: Lucius Hexenseele (Brynhildr) | RS3: UltimaSuende . 99 WC/Fish/Cook/Fletch/Div/Mining/Smithing/Thieving/Crafting/RC https://letterboxd.com/BMovieBro/ ...

Just keep in mind that for the next like 200 hours of gameplay, 90% of that time is just going to be you playing solo doing the MSQ.
I love FF14 but I would never in my life recommend it to a friend. It really just isn't a multiplayer game for most of the time you play it. ... Copied to Clipboard!

How single player friendly is it? I don't have much time in the evenings for play, and I'd rather not waste an hour waiting for a group to do a dungeon.

There are dungeons you have to do while doing the main story, but they are quick and the queues are much faster than say, WoW queue times --- Attention campers, lunch has been cancelled today due to lack of hustle.

Like that trial with Ifrit, I only was able to do it because my FC helped me out. --- FFXIV: Lucius Hexenseele (Brynhildr) | RS3: UltimaSuende . 99 WC/Fish/Cook/Fletch/Div/Mining/Smithing/Thieving/Crafting/RC https://letterboxd.com/BMovieBro/ ...

You got lucky, and/or things got better since I played last which was a year or two ago.
Anyway I've only played a handful of MMOs and none had forced group content for the story except for FFXIV which is why I thought it was a funny comment (though maybe the MMOs I played were in the minority). --- FFXIV: Lucius Hexenseele (Brynhildr) | RS3: UltimaSuende . 99 WC/Fish/Cook/Fletch/Div/Mining/Smithing/Thieving/Crafting/RC https://letterboxd.com/BMovieBro/ ...

well I admitted maybe things got better from when I tried it. I just know there was content I would not have been able to clear without forming a private group with when I *did* play. I played two years ago and didn't have a problem with queues, and then I also levelled three months ago and the queues were even faster. I've played WoW since the beginning so waiting 5-7 minutes is a blessing compared to dps queues there. The only thing that was a bit bleh was being forced to do Crystal Tower this time around, but the queue times were still fine imo. --- Attention campers, lunch has been cancelled today due to lack of hustle.

It's a mess. In Classic/TBC there were quest chains that led up to dungeons though, yes. Some of them were required if you wanted to do raid content. And back then there wasn't a group finder at all, so you had to join LFG chat and pray you could wrangle people together to go do Strat or Old Hillsbrad Foothills. --- Attention campers, lunch has been cancelled today due to lack of hustle.

you know you could have still taken the free trial, picked the catgirl then used a program called concept matrix to change yourself into a viera. granted, you would have to change the model every time you load into a new area so it's not that convenient, but it is a way around the annoying free trial lock they have. then, if you liked it, after beating the main game's storyline they give you a potion that allows you to change almost everything about your character including race, so if you liked it at that point you could be a viera for real and stop using concept matrix
i don't think it's possible to automate the model switching, though i haven't looked too much into it. also the mods in the game wouldn't like you talking about it and to everyone else you would look like your original character, not the viera since all the changes are local --- The Earth is round.
