If you made progress this month:

Congratulations! We’d love to hear about it!

Title, platform, genre, etc.

Did you complete the game?

What did you think of it?

Did you start on one game and switch to another?

Make sure to use spoiler tags if you’re posting anything about a game’s plot that might significantly hurt the experience of others that haven’t played the game yet (no matter how old or new the game is).

If you didn’t make progress this month:

Things happen! It’s okay. Reflect on it and commiserate with others.

I did get credits rolling in FFXIV A Realm Reborn and it was great! I did mostly beeline the main story quest and did sprinkle a bit of sides but only a handful. I will slowly do the post game stuff before making my way in a future month to tackle the first expansion. I think my favorite thing from this experience was the music. Final Fantasy always has quality music and its use in just this "opening" of the game was superb. They story itself I felt was pretty good, contrary to what a lot of the long time players saying it's a slog. But maybe because I played it at a time when a lot is streamline affect my perception. The gameplay itself was okay... Probably because I am at the beginning I was stuck playing with bots for the dungeons which felt too easy and not challenging. I am guessing I just need to work my way through and hopefully get to actual current end game content one day. All in all I am happy with my play through if the base game of FFXIV as a free trial player.
