All of the content in this game is gated behind the MSQ in some fashion. The biggest piece of advice any veteran XIV player will give is to prioritize completing the MSQ. Up in the top left, you'll see the Main Scenario Quest(MSQ) guide, which gives the player a quick button to see where the next MSQ location is. This meteor-shaped quest is the Main Scenario Questline marker.

With that our very first quest is complete, and you'll notice, now that Momodi's got a new quest icon above her head.

The Manufactory has many other discoveries within its doors for tinkerers and improvisation, though the power of machines does give the nobility of Ishgard pause… One such breakthrough is the firearm, a weapon that propels a small ball of iron at high speeds by means of controlled explosive kinetic force.

If you want to get in on the action and be seen in the videos and screenshots, feel free to pop on to that server and send whatever I name this character a friend request! My intention is to keep this rolling all the way through the current expansion, and to enlist the help of our very own Free Company, The Talking Tyrants on the Sargatanas server, to proceed through the game. What I need from y'all is the answers to the following questions: It is this world that our new hero or heroine awakens to, ready to make his or her mark. As will be revealed, those heroes are in the people's memories, but they cannot call to mind the details of their faces. But they will never forget the sacrifices of those who fought the Garlean Empire's advances on Carteneau. People are heading out into the world to rediscover the history of their land, now changed forever by Bahamut. In-game, that was five years ago, and now, Eorzea is awakening to itself once again.

If you're interested in the story of how things went down, I recommend checking out TheSL's previous LP for the in-game story of how things went down, and a series of documentaries by Noclip, 'The Death and Rebirth of Final Fantasy XIV'.īut enough looking backward! This is A Realm Reborn from the ashes of the fall of the red moon Dalamud, the sundering of the Elder Primal Bahamut, and Archon Louisoix's sacrifice to save the realm. TheSL graciously took us through the story of 1.x, which at the time, was still being maintained and prepped for its eventual rebirth into the game that 14 million people are playing now.

Well, someone here remembered, and we love him for it. So, we all remember what happened back in 2010, right? That thing where Final Fantasy XIV came out, and it was critically panned for being basically unfinished out the gate? The following posts are cross-posted from the archived Talking Time Forums.
