What is Final Fantasy 14? Square Enix’s MMORPG immerses you in the fantasy world of Eorzea. Here, you typically follow an epic story, which you experience through quests, typical of a theme park MMORPG. You choose one of three city-states: The forest city of Gridania, the sea metropolis Limsa Lominsa, and the Sultanate of Ul’dah as factions.
Depending on your choice, you start in a different area and receive different quests in the beginning. Together with friends, you fight against monsters to gain experience points, which you use to steadily improve your hero.
Your equipment is especially important, as it is tied to your hero’s development. By adjusting your gear, not only does your hero’s appearance change, but so does the playstyle and the actively used skills.
PvP battles are conducted in FF14 in special areas. The storyline of the MMORPG is regularly continued through new content updates and major addons.

What players say: Final Fantasy 14 is a very popular MMORPG. Fans love the classic feel of a theme park MMORPG. However, many quests take a lot of time and sometimes feel like simply running through locations, which can make some missions repetitive.
- TweeXta thinks on Steam: “If you’re annoyed by WoW or if it’s become too easy and boring, you should take a closer look at FF14! The game seems wonderfully thought out in every corner.”
- •ŞunƦỉsẸ• says: “I’ve played many MMOs. FF14 is certainly not perfect, but the story is outstanding.”
