Dawntrail is the worst exp ever. Most of the best content is gate kept by other players, meaning you have to join abusive discords and be spoken to like a child without a voice to clear it -
Racism is tolerated. Blacklisting a player does not work either - they simply come up as "unknown adventurer" when they are out in thw world and they can still end up in the same raids as you!! No privacy, no security and not allowed to tell someone who is bullying you to F off otherwise you end up being hacked by a GM who pulls you out of your duty to spook you tf out in a 'Jail' - looked nothing like jail imo ๐
but ok SE!! Yoshida should be sacked for Dawntrail and he should be blocked from ripping off nintendo's Yoshi.
The Novice Network is toxic af - most mentors think the crown entitles them to be a sarcastic dick and some of them cant even clear a duty without dying like eww! They are unhelpful and totally not a good place for novices.
Overall World of Warcraft game play wins and i think visually, i only play FF because of the more realistic look but I'm further on WoW because nothing is gate kept or blocked and you can trade anywhere anytime. Food buffs actually useful in Wow but not at all in FFXIV. Visually better but game play here is DEAD
