Short Guide to Final Fantasy XIV

As the competitive gaming scene is blooming into a multinational industry with contributions from all over the world, companies are spending precious time and money to make sure their RPGs stay on the top, unparalleled. Is it easy? Never. For a few years and certain games, dominating PC screens has become second nature but also quite a hurdle, since to stay relevant, they need to be the best.

You could all argue with me, but I believe, in all its entirety, Final Fantasy XIV is the one MMO that I would place on top of the others. If we’re talking market competition, Final Fantasy released its new expansion which gave it quite a boost in terms of publicity and fan following and succeeded in surpassing World of Warcraft like other MMORPGs in the competition. Despite sales looking tough, Square Enix still manages to pull through to post record-making revenues on the table for everyone to see. Cumulative sales span out across millions each month, 3 or 4 times in Japan, the game’s origin country.

If you have been a “Final Fanatic” you know the game’s history in one-upping its previous story and engagements which makes you fall in love with it all over again. Many customizable items and guns, full money bags of FF14 Gil, good storyline, soundtrack, you name it . The storyline is dense and can be peeled back into a thousand layers, the crafting is engaging and visibly very well thought out. There is also the matter of alt. character styles and skills. In WoW, you’re supposed to choose a different character every time for a different forte whereas in FFIV a character can work all kinds of jobs depending on what level they’re on. These are just some of the reasons why I would suggest you to dive into the world of Final Fantasy, not to mention the music – a big plus!

If FF decides to remain where they are they need to uphold all of this and bring in more innovation especially since class is in session and the market is heating up quickly as advances in technological development reach new scores.
