I know the subscription based mmorpg is a bit intimidating for most, but oh my god! This is not only a pretty game, but it's so much fun to play. Needless to say this reboot is an incredible comeback from the original failure of FFXIV.
Whether playing alone, with your free company (guild), or with friends, it's so easy to tell yourself "Okay after I finish this, I'll go to bed" and still end up playing for another couple of hours.
So far I've made my way up to level 20 as a Thaumaturge (mage) and every other level or so something new unlocks that makes you want to keep playing. Pretty soon I'll have my own personal giant chicken to ride and I'm super excited.
The only issue I have with this game is the dungeon queues. You're required to be in a party of 2 Damage Dealers, a tank and a healer. It's a great system to ensure you have a party capable of success. However, when it tries to match you with other people, unless you're a healer or a tank, you could be waiting a very long time.
