Is it worth it? I mean the initial $39.99 then the $12.99 per month. I would gladly pay it if it is. But I haven't played a FF game before. How are the combat and classes?

I plan to get it on PS4 by the way.

Totally worth it. It doesn't matter if you never played a FF game before since they don't relate to each other except for direct sequels, like FFX and FFX-2, FFXIII, and FFXIII-2. Although, the names and the look of some monsters do stay the same throughout the series.

Visit my thread. Its full of youtube videos showing off combat, and contents. http://gamrconnect.vgchartz.com/thread.php?id=145816&page=1#

By the way, here is a list of all the combat classes, none combat classes, and jobs you can unlock in FFXIV.

Also this is not a final list, more classes and jobs will be unlocked with future patches and expansions. I believe Patch 2.3 will bring Ninja, and Samurai.

Combat Classes: Archers, Lancers, Conjurers, Thaumaturges, Pugilists, Gladiators, Arcanists, Marauders.
 

Jobs: Bard, Dragoon, White Mage, Black Mage, Monk, Paladin, Scholar, Warriors, Summoner

None Combat classes. Gatherers and Crafters

Leatherworkers

Carpenters

Botanists

Goldsmiths

Alchemists

Miners

Weavers

Armorers

Blacksmiths

Culinarians

Fishers

 

That sounds cool. You know anything about dragoons and black mages? And are your characters tied to one server or something?
