So, anybody else giving FF14 a shot now that it is on Xbox? I spent about 2 hours on character creation last night, only to get a queue when I tried to login, lol, so I gave up for the night. Going to try and hop in again here in a moment.

We may not have FF16 or FF7R 1 or 2 on Xbox to play anytime soon, but you really have no excuse to not play FF14 if you are a Final Fantasy fan, the base game and first 2 expansions packs are free to play, so there is plenty of free content to explore if you don't want to pay $15 a month for the full experience. F2P version is level 1-70 (50 base game levels and 10 each from the first 2 expansions), I think 7 races to choose from, 7 starting classes and 16 jobs (jobs are basically upgraded advanced classes that either branch off from the starting classes, or for the expansion pack jobs, are available after a certain level without a starting class prerequisite).

What if you ain’t a MMO fan? 🥲

You can play through ALOT of the story, solo. With just Duty Supports (npcs).

I played FFXIV on PC, it was good fun. I only got up to level 32. Most of the game can be played solo was the most appealing part for me. I definitely need to get back into it.

They have build out the NPC system, their goal being to allow players to get through the story parts, without being reliant on finding groups.
That said, even if you run into a small part that does require a Raid, doing the odd 1 or 2, with players wouldn't kill most people.
You can play FFXIV as a single player experiance, and still get alot of fun out of it, if thats your goal.
Even if the endgame, is all based around grouping up with others.
