The FFXIV Difficulty Problem

#ff14 #ffxiv FFXIV’s difficulty curve is… really weird. It starts off super slow, stays super slow, and then suddenly in Dawntrail the game decides to check if you’re even awake. For over 100 hours the game lets you do the bare minimum — and then out of nowhere throws mechanics at you like you’ve been training in the Hyperbolic Time Chamber. When you compare Final Fantasy XIV to other games, the issues become even more obvious. Other games expect you to improve. FFXIV only expects that if you plan on doing high-end content. I love this game to death, but wow… the early game needs HELP. 😭
