To quote Twitter: "I wouldn't trust the opinion of an FF14 player on writing with a ten foot pole ever since I saw a tragic amount of people who thought Werlyt was a redemption arc and not Gauis having everything he holds dear utterly destroyed facing the fruits of his actions" - Dreamboum

Suffice to say the story is good, and game play is perhaps the best it has ever been. The Solo Duties are fun, maybe not carrying quite the same level of variety as EW provided us with, but the Dungeons and the Trials are perhaps the best we have ever received in the games history. I almost worry that this expansion will act almost like Cataclysm had for WoW back into 2010. Players say they want harder content, hell we even had a ridiculous healer strike weeks before the release of this expansion, but now that we actually have harder content for casual players... How will they react.

I legitimately had to mark myself with a Doritos marker and place down guiding markers for the players that joined me in the final dungeons. And this is honestly no hate towards them, I've been impressed with how many of the players I've paired up with in the dungeon finder thus far have stuck with fight no matter how many attempts it may take. But how will the selfsame healers who were up arms merely a week ago now react to content that requires them to actually know how to play classes as complex as SCH and AST.

As of writing this I haven't had the opportunity to finish both EX trials yet, and while I may have concerns with EX 2 after experiencing the normal mode, EX 1 has truly dissuaded many of those fears. Mechanics are fast and varied. There are innovative ideas abound, I can't wait to see what sort of Ultimate, Savage and Alliance raids we receive this patch cycle as the very well could be the greatest we ever receive. The short glimpse we have already received of the Arcadion Savage series the aesthetic of an almost Cyberpunk mixed with Dragon Ball-esque tournament set up seems to be nothing short of incredible.

As a wrap up here I'ma throw some numbers out here to help you make up your mind, if you really want to play what could be the greatest expansion to ever come to FFXIV:

Story: 7/10
Classes: 7/10
Dungeons: 10/10
Trials: 9/10
Music: 10/10

I don't normally review games, but somehow a lot of folks felt it write to leave a review on an MMO's story after playing the introduction day 1. Y'all probably need to address the fact that the two expansions you've claimed to have poor writing are the two where we primarily travel with a female lead. Might be some subconscious biases anime fans need to address 😨

This is the best base entry to Civilization in recent memory. There are aspects of complexity missing but for the most part it far surpassed the accomplishments of both Civ 4 and Civ 5 base game. I recommend to any fan of the series and anyone interested, do you research on a mechanics before hand though so you don't spend your $60 and feel cheated, they have massively altered previous mechanics, I personally support most of the changes.

List of major issues for me:
- I miss world congress though I feel like the AI is mostly absent in my playthroughs unless it involves militant pressures
- Science tree feels short and easy to rush down, a fix would be to increase diminishing returns on districts
- The Policies menu is mess, it needs organization
- No killer space robots
