After the opening cutscene and arriving in Limsa for my first ever mmo, there was a guy standing in front of the first intro quest. He ran up to me and offered me an item, just a cookie with the message "extra xp when eat" he waved goodbye and went back to the same spot to wait for next new player. 50 levels later i decided to pay it forward, bought some cookies and went to the spot to do the same thing for the next batch of new players.

I think for whatever reason 14 and it's community is much more cognizant with regards to casual players. As a sprout, I duty findered into the Garuda main storyline fight. Not wanting to hold the team up, I skipped the cutscene and got ready to tank, figuring I'd watch it at an inn. The white mage had noticed the message saying we had someone in the group experiencing this mission for the first time, and knowing that said cutscene was fairly long, asked if there were new players here. I told them I was new and while I was interested in the story, I also didn't want to waste people's time. At which point the entire group of randoms chimed in to tell me that it's etiquette in the game to let people watch the raid cutscenes, and anyone who wanted to rush in without waiting for the group deserved whatever they got. So that was pretty nice.

@@TheGokki I'm very much a cutscene watcher but sometimes there's a self-imposed pressure to not be the "slow one", especially since you have ample opportunity to experience the cutscenes in an inn, outside of the co-op group experience. Even though that is an option, it is definitely better to see it in the active story context so I'm glad the community tends the way it does.

14 is actually the only game I've ever felt comfortable enough to play roles other than DPS. When you're a sprout healer or tank, wipes don't get you yelled at, they typically get you advice. 3 years in as a White Mage main, nothing makes me smile like helping a sprout through Haukke Manor for the first time, or to clear their first Nidhogg. In 14, everyone is paying the patience and kindness forward because we've all been there.

I get this so much! I never liked the pressure of being a healer in most games. I played as a White Mage in this game and the first time I went through a dungeon one person died. I revived him ASAP and we won, but I felt so bad. They all said I did an amazing job and voted me their "player commendations." It was so rewarding that I continued to main as a healer. I rarely had perfect runs without any deaths, but players were always super encouraging. I think the Tanks and Healers both feel a lot of pressure, but also get a lot of support from the community because everyone understands the pressure they're under. I don't play it anymore due to the monthly subscription, but at some point I'd love to get back to it when I can afford it.

Having recently started Final Fantasy 14, I was absolutely BAFFLED by the kindness of the community. I was new, learning to tank. Not only did some random guy give me pointers DURING the entire dungeon he found me in, but also added me as a friend, and sent me links to various useful bits of info regarding tanking, enmity, tinctures and other such stuff I needed to know. He offered also to induct me into his Free Company if I ever needed a crew, but if not, I was welcome to call him up whenever he was online to give me pointers or even teach me difficult content. And this kindness didn't stop with him. I had just finished Heavensward and figured I would work on some glamour to try and be pretty while making my way through Stormblood. Ya know, get my whole style nailed down. Some girl saw me dicking about with my glamour, told me she though some jeans would make the outfit look even better, and gifted me a set of jeans (which I later found out came from ENDGAME CONTENT). Just out of the blue. Like, bro, I have not had a SINGLE bad encounter with the community and it is incredible.

I'm a sprout along with 2 other friends and we entered a dungeon that is notoriously difficult. But we wanted to unlock it to get the minion drop. We got in and a random tank joined us.... and we wiped twice before even getting to the first boss. Then we wiped 2 more times on the first boss. I fully expected the tank to leave but he stuck with us, gave us some advice and made a small plan. And we killed the first boss and managed to complete the dungeon without dying again. I remember being SO surprised that he stayed and was even nice about the whole thing. You best believe we all gave him a commendation before we left

That same pathway also makes them go into withdrawal if they don't get that release, leading to depression or even physical symptoms that can make them desperate to get that high again.

This morning on Christmas Eve, I saw something that made me really think about the differences between the FFXIV community and WoW's. Around six people in an FC were holding an impromptu Christmas concert in Limsa with the in-game musical instruments. They were *very* good, and everyone just sat around politely and listened, cheering/applauding between songs and generally having a good time. It struck me that if this happened in WoW, there would almost certainly be a group of assholes spamming AOEs or loud emotes to ruin it. It was a tiny thing, but it was one of the more wholesome things I've witnessed in a video game.

Healer’s always let me know if the pulls are too big, or too small but in a friendly way. MOST DPS wait for me to pull too because they’re not so impatient. Much better vibes.

Maybe you didn't exist on ED in MoP or even times afterwards. Players that have been there years are still trolls at heart who love a good display of conflict. The good thing is that no one will take a loss, so WPVP goes on. But literally ED was rppvp the last server with real WPvP on it and was known for that and the playerbase. It's never going to count as a rp server to anyone who has seen it just a few years ago. Only rp'ing i saw was people griefing rp'ers. You can't be talkin about Emerald Dream US as if its the positive light that shines on the good of the wow community. It's still toxic, it's still a warzone. We still see Andrew#1 which needs to be stopped. We got WSB so you can't claim it as a RP server when there is so much WPVP happening. tsk tsk. Any realm would have been more accurate. I've never been cheap shot so hard anywhere else ever but on ED US.

@@threeballmonte2003 Let them know if you might have some minor trouble tanking. When you let the group know they are way less likely to hold anything against you at all. I had a tank in timewalks that never did a cata dungeon. I was heals, i told him the fights and even when we wiped where it was a bit ridiculous, we did overcome a lot of things and I vouched for him when someone tried to kick him. If the kick passed id have kicked the person who did it. We had a nice time and learned new things with a tank that didn't know any fights because he let us know that before we got into the dungeon. DPS usually will just start pulling and expect you to be behind them and take aggro. It's just a thing, i guess it means speed up a bit if anything. It is not the same type of experience as it was years ago where I would bubble hearth out of dungeons to avoid the repair bill and then have to defend my actions. Let people who pulled things after being told not to just die. Thick skin isn't as important in dungeons as it was thats for sure.

I'm a long time veteran of WoW, I have recently dipped my toe into FFXIV, and one thing that really stands out to me in FFXIV is that every city feels so alive, due to how the game makes players go back to the various cities for their story, a constant bustle of players at varying stages of their games. If it's not the current expansion city, or your faction's capital city, it's lifeless in WoW.

Like how idlyshire is far more lifeless then Ishgard, Or how Kugane is far more active then Rhalgars Reach. Or how.. oddly enough. the Crystarium is less active(not quite dead tho) then Eulmore. With the exception of eulmore it may be connected with the primary hub having a Market board and the secondary city dosnt And in eulmores case its because its where you exchange stuff for Endgame gear, you augment exarcic gear, you buy and augment Cryptlurker gear, you exchange tokens for Eden Savage Gear. its where you get your endgame gear basicaly

FFXIV will forever hold a special place in my heart. I initially tried the game out 2 separate times about 3 years ago with an old IRL friend who had a lot of experience in the game, and they kinda ruined the "sprout experience" for me even though they were just trying to be helpful. They had me skip cutscenes to get caught up quicker, and since I had no clue what was going on in the story, I lost interest both times and stopped playing. About a month ago, I gave the game another shot and I'm absolutely in love with it now. I started over on a new character, and of course read all the text now, and watch all the cutscenes and love the story. But the major thing that makes this game so special to me is because from all the reading you have to do in the game, it made me fall in love with reading. I struggled with reading comprehension and didn't have the ability to retain what I read very often. This game changed that for me, improved my reading comprehension and genuinely gave me the ability to find joy in reading and immersing myself in the game/world. Not to mention all of the wholesome players who are incredibly patient, kind, and helpful. I've played ESO, BDO, and a little bit of WoW but nothing compares to FFXIV to me.

See, this is the way to make people feel like part of a community. The circle of life continues. Old player gives new player items, items make new player feel like a part of the community, new player becomes old player who gives new players good items. And WoW: old player yells at new player and tells them "kys u dum noob", new player feels terrible, now new player has zero incentive to be nice when they become an old player. It used to astonish me when, on reddit and facebook groups, veteran WoW players were bragging about bullying people so bad they uninstall the game and delete their account. Like, they were 100% proud of this. Why? I have no fucking clue. But they loved it. Now I'm not surprised, it makes perfect sense. I can't stand the people who are left playing the game.

I ran a dungeon yesterday in FFXIV, one of my first runs ever runs as a healer (Scholar, specifically, so I was in a slightly higher level dungeon than you'd usually be when trying out a role for the first time). I was paired up with a tank who'd not gone through the dungeon before and two DPS who clearly knew what they were doing. We wiped once because I messed up my MP management (read: I forgot to press Lucid Dreaming) and didn't have enough to heal up the tank, one time when the tank pulled way too many enemies, and another time when the tank didn't know a mechanic on a boss that resulted in him dying. At no point did the DPS get annoyed or upset at us, they just kindly laughed it off and were posting supportive messages in chat when we got through the bits that had given us trouble ("EZ!" "Good job!" "We got this!", that type of stuff). After we finished off the final boss both the tank and I apologized for not doing great and one of the DPS just said "np everyone is new at some point". Just a really pleasant and wholesome experience, and one that's pretty unthinkable in most other MMOs I've tried.

Man after years of WoW I can honestly laugh at how bad a "Sprout" type system would be. Imagine being a tank who has never seen a dungeon in WoW and you have a "newbie" tag on your name. You'd get an immediate "omg fucking sprout this isn't happening" rage quits. Meanwhile trying FF14 starting this week I was so nervous tanking dungeons I had zero clue about. Only to be met with people showing which way to go and giving me commendations in the end. It's really hard to wrap my head around such positivity after 15 years of WoW.

I've been scarred by so many years of WoW's toxicity in dungeons and raids that even though I have multiple 80s at this point of every role in XIV, I've done nearly every type of content with all of them and can count on one hand the bad experiences I've had, and I know how to play them all to a decent degree... I still get anxious about hitting that queue button solo. I know it's going to be fine, but WoW legit probably gave me PTSD over it considering the pure rush of anxiety I get before clicking 'Join'.

@Timmah73 I actually don't know what you are talking about. If you are a tank that has never seen a dungeon in WoW... then obviously you are doing it in normal or heroic which are the most forgiving ever. You'll have people helping you, and you can do many things wrong and still finish the content. If, instead..... you decided to go into a mythic+ version of a dungeon on a timed lockout...and had no idea what you were doing, that would be an unethical behavior choice by you. Those higher difficulties are intended for people who care enough to look up a dungeon first. And let's be honest, there are such difficulty modes in FF14 as well....where there would be understandable anger and frustration with your unethical behavior. There seems to be quite a bit of apples and oranges comparison here..... it's not fair to compare the most casual of difficulty modes in 14 to the upper middle or progression-based difficulties in WoW.

The community is the biggest difference for me. I played WoW back in the day as a Paladin healer I can remember making a mistake and just getting "shouted" and cussed down into a hole, getting threatened by random strangers etc. In FFXIV I went into a dungeon as a healer made a mistake and we wiped and I instantly flinched waiting to be shouted at and cussed out. Instead the party was just like, our bad it is a complicated fight and you haven't done it before, we should have explained it to you. They explained it to me the next go around we did better, the third time we beat it and it was good. The only time I remember anyone getting upset is on an extreme Titan fight when we were wiping a lot. Even then you could tell people were frustrated but it never devolved into name calling and threats.

As someone who has also played WoW and FFXIV, I can say that FFXIV is more my style of MMO. In WoW, I always felt like I was being told "You have to do this in order to progress" and having to memorise spreadsheets to do one raid boss. In FFXIV, it's more like "You don't have to do this, but it's there if you want to try it" and the bosses that need a spreadsheet are mostly savage/extreme versions of the boss fights (the "fanfic" versions as Jessie put it). I just find FFXIV so much more relaxing to play. I never feel pushed to do anything, and I can walk away from it for a week or more, but still come back and feel like I haven't missed anything or have fallen behind.

I agree, I actually think the difficulty between the 2 are equal because there are plenty of bosses in WoW that are just braindead fights or ones with very simple mechanics. Both games have involved bosses but 14 has a much better combat system so it's more fun to actually play. So many WoW fights are just buff up and press 1-3 buttons over and over but in 14, at least as a DPS, you've got 10+ buttons to be pressing constantly and 2 resources to manage plus your OGCDs to weave in. It's just so much more rewarding and it feels like you're actually playing the game rather than click and wait

If you get burnt out, join an FC, level some alternate jobs, start gathering and crafting. There’s so many ways to have fun outside of MSQ, and it’s so worthwhile to interact with them. I took almost a week break midway through playing Stormblood while still playing the game because I got really into fishing and crafting for a bit. Follow the fun, cause there’s plenty outside the main story. Happy questing!

WoW trained people to level ASAP for access to the latest new content. This leads to people power levelling through RPGMMOs and missing the bulk of content. Even so, FFXIV people treat gathering and crafting as a chore, not realizing that, if you level these alongside your main (within about five levels), that each runs parallel to the main story, and you can craft all the HC gear that you need, for yourself and selling.

The success of WoW, having existed for so long, has made a playerbase of (mostly accidentally) elitists who think you're trolling if you make mistakes.

On top of cooperative hunt trains, some people would stay back just to rez dead people. Sometimes, the conductor (or the person calling out the locations for the ranks) would remind everyone, and sometimes even wait, to look for dead people so we can rez them fast enough for the next rank. Same can be said for Eureka and Bozja which are instanced zones where dying means losing xp/mettle. There's also achievements for rezzing people that aren't in your party depending on how much you've done it.

Hmm... is there a boss guide in FF14? If not, this could be why - in WoW, there is a guide to each boss in the adventure guide, so people can just look in there very quickly, and figure out what's going on, and even then most players have dbm, which basically tells them what is happening at a specific point. E.g. *insert mechanic* - *dodge, soak, run away*. This would mean a lack of exposure to asking how to do something, which can be scary. If there is one, then Idk, I have never had an Lfg shout at me for missing a mechanic, and I'm not in a very competitive guild - hardest fight I've actually done is Heroic tier.

@@simj202 It's also a HUGE help that FF14 tends to reuse the same or similar warnings for mechanics. For instance, any time a boss has "look away" mechanic, they'll have the same big floating eye spell effect over them. The first few times you run into that, you'll probably get hit by the ability, but after a few more tries you'll realize "oh, that graphic means I need to face away from the boss", so when you see it again in later trials/raids/etc, you already know what the mechanic wants you to do. Though for the harder stuff they can mix it up by having multiple things going on at once, like in the fight against Diabolos where there's a stack marker that ALSO has a "look away" effect ON the marked player: you have to stack up, but then make sure you're facing away from the marked player, and they need to stay still so they don't accidentally walk in front of someone and get them hit with a fear.

In the starting zone, I met with the group of people who asked if I was new and then showered with tips, food, and just... I was not prepared for that, and it has not stopped.

​@@lokifrostpaw2976well for me, it took a while, taking short breaks between each completed expansion after Heavensward, but the experience has been fantastic. Initially approached it with just going through the story in mind and stuck comfortably to my niche as a Red Mage, but recently decided to hold off on going straight into Endwalker in order to backtrack and explore other content, get more into the familiarity of dailies, queuing, and some of the expansive side content like the Gaius Shadowbringers content. Have to say, each expansion has certainly felt better than the last, with the exception of Stormblood, which I felt was the weakest so far and was singularly carried by Zenos and Gozetsu (although being the worst of the best still means it's impressive). That said, each expansion really feels like an improvement upon the lessons learned from the last one, like the devs really paid attention and worked to hone their work to make sure everything was improved. Shadowbringers really shined in that respect for me, the pacing was perfect and all the quests were tied to the plot and worked to advance the narrative in some way, a big step up from the filler content of the previous two expansions and definitely an improvement from ARR. All in all, it's been a positive experience since starting out and I wish I hadn't slept on this game for so long. Although, gotta admit, what got me through the tedium of ARR was the knowledge that it was guaranteed to get better afterwards. If I didn't go in knowing that, I don't know if I would have managed to tough it out. Was satisfying to see later payoff in the expansions for initially tedious ARR filler content though.

Don't even need to put in 40 hours to enjoy FFxiv. I found that once I dropped the WoW philosophy of leveling as quick as possible, I started to enjoy it a lot. I treated ARR (A realm reborn aka base game) as if it was end game since a lot of stuff that was in AAR still matter. The ability dye your armor, glamour (transmog), requirements to buy a house, and many more are only done through the base game. You still have to level up crafting from the very beginning, so I am leveling it up as I level my character. It would be much quicker if I rushed to max level first, but by taking it slow and not worrying about raiding asap I found that I enjoyed the game from the start. It is so different from WoW I can see why other WoW players wouldn't like it, but for me WoW became a job, and enjoying FFxiv as a game.

Most of the time, when you get wipes, you usually get extended bouts of fun-poking and humor. I had an ARR trial pop earlier where we wound up wiping twice before taking it down. (Chrysalis for those in the know.) The first attempt, everyone's quiet, the group runs headlong into a wipe after the transition. Second attempt, out comes the jokes about "ball fondling" and "here comes the succ". Made it through the transition back on the second attempt with me, one other DPS, and one tank still alive. We got the boss down to 1% but I was down now, the tank was down, and the last DPS was hitting him hard - made doubly great because the other DPS was a first-time sprout. Got the boss down to 0.1%...and died. We all had a good laugh, patted him on the back for the valiant attempt, then knocked it out third time, no problem. Afterwards, everyone was cheering him before hopping out. It was great, bunch of strangers laughing and joking with each other like they were a long-term static. And gotta say, that's pretty typical of the FF community from my experience over the last 4-5 years.

Became more engaged into the fight and then we succeeded. It was a refreshing taste of accomplishment and camaraderie. This has only been one of many such experiences.

I think one of the most important events that happens in FFXIV, and one of the few holiday events I try to never miss is the rising event. It happens once a year on the anniversary of the game's rebirth, a sort of "Phoenix rising from the ashes" kind of deal from whence it draws it's namesake. It serves as an opportunity for the devs to celebrate and thank the playerbase for sticking with them throughout these many adventures, and it really gives you a sense of just how much the devs care about their players and how much our continued support means to them. Easily one of the most heartwarming things in the game. There's also the fact that the devs put in a whole lot of extra work just for the players. Take the male viera for instance, the devs are doing all the extra work to make them playable on the side, in addition to their regular workload, just because they know how much it means to the players. I encourage people to consider this kind of thing if there's ever any doubt that the devs listen to and care about the playerbase.

The best thing for me that FFXIV does is that content never really dies. There's no need for an ARR classic because for all intents and purposes, it's all still there, waiting for you to do it. Other than some seasonal event glamours, you aren't missing out on stuff by taking some time away, it will all still be there when you're ready to give it another spin. Older end game raid content like coils, alexander, omega, years old stuff is still run regularly by players using minimum item level settings to get the near same experiences you'd get back in the day when they were new. You can get into this kind of raiding well in advance of the end game, even players with the free trial status can show up in sync'd coils and alexander parties. There's communities organized around this very idea of learning and playing old content. Sure you'd be doing it less for progression and rewards and more for the experience of doing it, but to me that feels like a just plain better relationship to have with the game, to be playing it because you're having a good time instead of feeling obligated.

After a while we all swap roles and spend the whole raid night screaming as we try and learn mechanics from a new perspective.

Then, there's player housing. That lets the players have a space of their own to customize be it for a free company or a house/apartment for a player. Lastly, there's the whole performance aspect you mentioned with Bard Instruments which has enabled groups such as the Songbirds (www.songbirdsffxiv.com/) who regularly go around the different data centres and play/dance. It's to the point where there's also groups such as A Stage Reborn (www.astagereborn.com/t/ffxiv/) that put on plays in-game.

I even had a helping hand from a random passer-by while farming mobs for sinews which were 6-7 levels stronger than me. Although I must say, the WoW community hasn't always been that toxic. Especially in Vanilla and TBC, players were pretty much like in FFXIV today, helpful and glad to have potentially new guild members joining the game. I also have some great memories during Naxx progression in Vanilla, where our guild would constantly clash against a horde guild we were battling for server first kills. We would PvP the hell out of eachother until EXACTLY 5 minutes before the raid would start, just to clean up the mess we made, /saluted and went our way. Although, overall, FFXIV made me smile way more in three years playing it than WoW ever did in 10+ years. AND THE MUSIC, I JUST CAN'T!! Do you know.... LAHEE?!

I can tell you why I love the FFXIV community. It's always a group of players putting their heads together after every raid wipe to figure out what we did wrong and what we need to look out for the next fight. And we're telling each other who goes where and who does what, it's automatic. It gets you super frustrated to be wiped as you're a sliver of health away from completing the raid but people just come together cool headed and calm. You have players joking in between fights, during a fight, after a fight. You see camaraderie amongst absolute strangers and it's just nice that people really want to see each other enjoy the content. It doesn't take a lot to make the game enjoyable at all. You see a sprout in game and if they're new to it, they'll tell you. Immediately players will give pointers and run down of the raid or dungeon, what to expect in a boss fight. And if you're a new tank? Bam, the Healer will know what to do. It's just these little things that makes the game worth playing for me.

I really do hope that this video gets the exposure it deserves. Jesse spent a lot of time and effort putting it together, after all. Also, I feel like the Jobs system is a better way to do classes in an MMO. Rather than grinding up a whole new character in order to try out a different class, you can just switch classes on the fly. Saves a lot of time, IMHO. Though with that said, I feel like a good middle-ground would be to have a "party palette", where you make a character for each job/class, and you switch to that character when you want to play as a certain class. Each class would level up accordingly, but you'd also gain party XP, so you could boost party members who've been "in the bleachers". Either that, or have the player field multiple characters at once, controlling one of them while the other 2/3/4 are AI-driven.
