Is Final Fantasy XIV Still Worth Playing?

-

I’ve been exploring MMOs and recently tried *Throne and Liberty*, but I quit after a while because it started to feel repetitive. I also gave *BDO* a chance but stopped at level 17 since playing solo wasn’t enjoyable for me. Currently, I’m testing out *FFXIV* and had a brief look at *GW2*, which I abandoned at level 4. I’m curious if it’s still worth continuing with *FFXIV*. How’s the community there? Is the player base active? And since I plan to use a controller, is that doable?

Totally worth diving into *FFXIV*! Most folks here would agree. Although the leveling can feel slow at times, exploring the maps is a great way to level up. The community is really welcoming, and aside from some toxicity in PvP instances, you’ll find it pretty chill compared to other games. There’s always chatter in the main hubs, and looking for groups usually fills up quickly, often in about 10 minutes. And yes, you can use a controller! I don’t know the specifics, but a guild mate of mine does it.

Just a heads up, using a controller requires some setup and possibly extra software, but I play exclusively with a controller and have a blast! Totally worth it!
