    8-person DDR MMO

    This is the funniest description of FF14's cooldown mechanics and the way inputting attacks and rotations feels.

    Oh I literally just started it a few weeks ago. I'm almost at level 50!

    I finally got over my social anxiety to do random duty roulettes. It probably didn't help I play tank, but it went well as you would expect. Hopefully I can keep that up in the future because I think it would be helpful to fighting the anxiety in general.

        I'll be sure to let you know if I have any story thoughts I need to yell at someone :p I honestly wasn't paying much attention to the plot until recently

        level 30~ i think msq quest spoiler

        when a lot of the scions died and they had me move their corpses. i was not expecting that.

        im also probably going to make a post here when i want to join an FC or something cos it'd be nice if there are any comrades who i could play with, but since i have no intention to pay for the game until i have to that wont be for a whileee

          Aww man that scene is such a gut punch. And the guy driving the cart doesn't care he just wants you to hurry up and load it. FFXIV has a lot of dark world-building, but the WOL kinda gets insulated from it by making friends with the nobility everywhere they go.

    Heyyy I've been playing! Currently still trying to catch up to current content, almost done with Stormblood. I enjoyed Heavensward a lot but Stormblood is kind of dragging for me. Eager to get to Shadowbringers soon, I've heard its by far the best expansion

            I am unfortunately on an EU data center >< Specifically Chaos. I live in NA but started playing FF14 to join an EU friend. One day I'll probably make an alt on an NA datacenter when I'm caught up on MSQ, though. Fwiw I'll still :3c you about my progress if you want lol

                my ping is normally sub 100, and I have XIVAlexander installed to allow me to double weave with a slightly high ping. Hasn't been an issue for me so far, but I'm not exactly doing Savage raids or anything yet

    It's such a good game! Unfortunately MMOs enable bad habits for me so I had to give it up

    I learned that I lean like one of the fem highlander idle poses and it's made me happy ever since. I can be sufficiently sassy and strong as shit in my dragoon gear and it makes me feel COOL.

    Unfortunately I'm stuck on one of the post-EW MSQ trials thanks to social/performance anxiety sadness . I'm starting to think world of warcraft pve "community" has done untold amounts of mental damage on me lol

    4k hours checking in. Been trying to get a UWU clear with a static but the landslides have been rough. Also somehow Eureka hasn't been annoying me as much so I'm finishing a couple more weapons.

    And let me tell you, the DDR comparison is apt, specially when doing ultimates. You can easily count your gcds between mechanics and plan your cooldowns around it.

    I have been wanting to try it but I am confused by one thing. I know there is an option for free trial. But there is a starter edition listed like so:

    Starter Edition
    
        30-day free play period*
        Includes 3 award-winning titles:
        [Base Game] A Realm Reborn
        [Expansion Pack] Heavensward
        [Expansion Pack] Stormblood
    
    Rs 1,248
    

    Why does it say 30-day free play period? Do I have to buy a subscription after that? I couldn't find anything about the asterisk on the page anywhere.
