What data center/server? What is(are) your character name(s)?

I play L'ina Inverse and Mr. Popoto on Crystal/Zalera.

I played for a lil while, trying to get into it to play with my friends. The only MMO i've gotten DEEP into was the original Guild Wars, and that is obviously a bit different from other MMOs, so I wasn't sure if it would be my cup of tea. I ended up falling off before finishing the base Realm Reborn MSQ. I found the same problem I always have with MMOs - the initial loop is really fun and addicting and I'm enjoying learning the world, but then I hit a point where doing the quests just feels like a slog to endgame. I did some dungeons with my friends once that was possible, and it mostly just felt like I was struggling to keep up with something that everyone else had done 50 times over already. It stunk that I had to do story quests solo, and could only really party up for dungeons. Much preferred the GW experience of playing the MSQ together.

Idk, I'm not trying to trash on the game, I can tell it's really well made and I'm happy for all y'all. It just didn't resonate for me.

This was also my complaint. I felt like it was missing the cooperative aspect of an MMO that I wanted. I think FFXI is closer to what I want, but it's understandably older and less accessible for a lot of people. I'm still debating when/if i wana take the plunge and just play that for a while.

I've spent about 60 hours replaying the intro quests in XIV trying to get into it lol
