As the unfortunate owner of an account that has reached about 3,000 hours of playtime ingame before obtaining a steam copy, the only thing I can say about this game is that it is very nearly perfect.
The soundtrack, the storytelling, the community, the developers-- everything in this game is so welcoming and inviting.
FFXIV has been one of my favorite games since 2019 (a little after Shadowbringers dropped), and with Endwalker it only gets better each and every patch.
