FFXIV is great if you want to play casually, or want a GREAT story. Community in FFXIV is INFINITELY better than WoWs toxic cesspool of entitled elitism, especially if you join an RP server (you don’t have to RP, and most people don’t).
If you want cutting edge mythic raid difficulty, you might not find it, but you also won’t find the same BS you have here with raider.io and the like. Addons aren’t required to raid (and aren’t supported).
So basically, if you want to have fun playing a game and not trying to make everything into an e-peen measurement, FFXIV will be good for you. Otherwise, we still have WoW IO.
