So, at the end of December I started playing Final Fantasy XIV, unfortunately it was during a huge, new update so the queues were abysmal and I didn't feel like wasting 2 hours of my evening free time waiting to get into a game. Then, when I renewed my sub in January, coincidentally I had my debit card info stolen so I had to shut down the card and order a new one.
Some time passed, it's April now, I renewed my sub again and re-started playing where I left off! I got sucked in hard and have been spending many hours powering through the MSQ and Archer quests, also dabbling into crafting here and there. I am trying not to overwhelm myself too much with all the new stuff and mechanics.
Doing dungeons with a premade NPC party is what motivated me to restart, since compulsory group content is what held me off getting really into the game. Thankfully, I have friends to play with in the future but I also like exploring on my own and learning by playing. I cleared the first two newbie dungeons and it was fun! I don't know why I imagine MMOs to be super fast paced and wild but so far it's just stand in place, then move away from big attack. I like that!
