Me: Phew I'm done free trial. Potd, HoH, Eureka, Tribe quest, Emote giving quest, Relic weapons, Omega, Alexander, Sky Pirates, Ivalice: "Are you sure about that?" Not to mention triple triad, chocobo racing, LoV, Ishgard and Doma restoration, treasure maps etc.

[@RoxiieReadsLore]

Great video man, very nice editing. I wish you well on your journey!

[@Zuhnado]

Thank you. Currently back on FF7 Rebirth so I hope my editing for this format gets better.

[@luvstvr5209]

they didn’t include ultimate in the free trial because it would make it easier to clear and sell accounts with clears and also make trollers and griefers a free way to go crazy in party finder. its sad that new players can’t experience those but im glad that they made that decision.

[@kajacx]

No marketboard on a free trial? That's brutal. Imagine doing any crafting, you are basically forced to do the "solo only" challange.

[@ittlenanzo7744]

Nice to see that you named your chocobo after a xeno character as well (I named mine poppi lmao)

[@kimfry4019]

It took me 10 yrs to get tthrough most of the content, and that don't include Dawntrail lol

[@semekiizuio]

Theres alot of content to go through, like a lot and is all solable as well before they implement "solo" focused gaming. Itll only get beefer once Dawntrail gets released and they open up Shadowbringers for free trial. I wish I had started with Free trial but I didnt know how to go about it back then as it was kind of confusing.

[@Zuhnado]

Yeah. Thankfully I had 2 friends who gave me a rundown on how the free trial worked.

[@aldeonuwu2634]

Im a new free trial player and for now the limitation on party,guild and gils make me sick

[@Grimnoire]

Damn, everyone uses that hairstyle on xaela female. Same face too.

[@Zuhnado]

Usually others have long hairstyles in Famfrit lol.

[@Grimnoire]

@@Zuhnado there's this vid of someone saying they [thought they] made the most unique aura. The poster logged out and pulled up their aura which had an identical customization to yours. Either you're the same person or we're three for three

[@Otaku-420]

I downloaded this a few days ago, got about 8 hours into it. Once I realized I couldn't use retainers, I uninstalled.

[@Zuhnado]

Tbh, retainers that early in wouldn't have much use. Only when inventory space is filled and you don't wanna put in time to gather stuff.

[@Otaku-420]

@@Zuhnado Not really about how early in the game it was for me. I was on Dynamis/Mauduin so all sources of exp were doubled. I got 33 WHM, did the dungeons, duty's, and all the job quests to 30 for Cure II. Knowing I'll never have access to storage or market, no matter how many level 60's I have, was the end of my free trial.

[@Dewkeeper]

A necessary sacrifice for keeping the endless swarm of bots out of the economy.

[@SkatingLion]

I'm just waiting for combat to get exciting. I picked thaumaturge and atm it's the most boring gameplay lol

[@user-bh4vk7gf3g]

Then try red mage or summoner I believe black mage doesn't get fun until level 60 or 70 but I don't know much about black mage 😅

[@Noel_Tamura]

@@user-bh4vk7gf3g I'm an ex 14 player and have played a lot of blackmage at level 90. Due to the rotations being different every 10 levels and the kit's full potential only being shown at level 90, I can confidently say that blackmage is dogshit for the first 89 levels. Once 90, the job is incredible but the lack of fluidity and sense before that is really bad

[@TorManiak]

I will add that while the first 89 levels aren't as good in terms of rotation, it doesn't mean that it stays boring until then, as the comment above mine may have implied to you. Once you get the core of the rotation at lvl 60 it will feel much better than what you have before that point, even if it is completely different. Past that level the core rotation will remain stable but everything around it will change, hence why it will feel different every 10 levels. But really, I suggest getting another class if you feel Thaumaturge is boring, since the job's leveling up to 50 isn't that good compared to others. If you're already at 50 though, just like the first answer said you could pick up Red Mage or Samurai, since they start at lvl 50 too and feel much better overall in this lvl range.

[@thetrin]

Yeaaah, you probably shouldn't have chosen the slowest caster in the game then, haha. Try different classes out! You might find something that clicks more.

[@oxtim394]

You picked turret mage and are complaining about the combat being boring. Lol. Change classes. Try pugilist (Monk)

[@greyfoxag]

Drowning in content? Lol thats every game to a new player. This title made me laugh my ass off

[@VastumTempus]

How many hours do you have in ff14? This game has more content than nearly any other game on the market, for free!

[@phbaum6186]

i have 14k hours in the game, play since arr release and still have stuff to do, its not only for new player :)

[@Noel_Tamura]

@@VastumTempus It has planets full of content in theory, mind you. It all depends on what you want from the game. If you only care about raiding and levelling jobs (like I did) the other stuff like crafting, social stuff and events don't matter.

[@nhedd0s839]

U mad bro
