What Gamespot Users have to say about Final Fantasy XIV Online: A Realm Reborn
- Rating:10
Brilliant blend between MMO and single player experience. Not revolutionary but extremely fun and addictive.
Final Fantasy XIV has risen from the ashes. Even if 1.0 had its moments it was a pretty horrible game. I played it for a while but its iffy mechanics and short cuts of game development made it a chore and an everlasting ... Read Full Review

Despite some uniqueness it is an ultimately grindy MMO with stagnant combat.
First of all after the rocky and close to catastrophic launch the game does now runs well and all the servers issues seem to be taken care of. It is solid in its gameplay and looks good as well. FF fans will take to t... Read Full Review

Despite a terrible launch and slow start, the game has great complexity that grows on you.
Most have heard the horror stories of both the launch and the relaunch of FFXIV. For the relaunch in particular, the server lockouts that prevented players from creating new characters on all but 1 or 2 servers, inabilit... Read Full Review

Sigh......
So my initial review of the game was premature. Although i loved the game till level 50 the moment i hit 50 the game was over for me. Like so many games before FFXIV it sadly has a boring end game. The moment i hit 50 me... Read Full Review

Feels like a treadmill.
I want to love this game, but it is just not fun. Admittedly I am only lvl 17, and I am trying to withhold judgement till I get to level 20. But my first dungeon, I couldn't wait for the experience to end. Do you enjoy k... Read Full Review

Good game but nothing special for me
First impressions was how good this game looked. Love the day and night cycle, i was standing on balcony watching the sunset, just looked bliss. The art direction is just wonderful. The gui has a real polished feel to ... Read Full Review

Just a launch First Impression review. Opinions could change as the game gets going.
MMOs have never been my thing. I love RPGs but I've never been into the whole paying monthly and the very standard quest structure. To me, MMOs are nothing more than sidequests turned into a game, all you do is a normal ... Read Full Review

A must try game. Has everything I want as a gamer.
I originally started playing FFXIV when the original came out. It wasn't until the updates came (when preparing for 2.0) that the game started to show potential. Since then, the game has taken a turn for the better (in m... Read Full Review
