To the moon and back.
It’s finally happened.
I’ve made it to the moon.
Back at the start of the year, wecollectively wrote a piece about our gaming resolutions.
Usually resolutions are made to be repeated every year and never achieved - but not this time.
I said I planned to get up to date inFinal Fantasy 14.
I’m determined to make that happen.
At long last, it’s clicked.
I didn’t quite know what to expect and its world seemed impenetrable to me: the Jobs!
The hundreds of hours of required time!
“Just get to Shadowbringers, then you’ll understand”.
The problem is, I’ve forever been playing catch up.
Some of those are thanks to Square Enix, others are my own.
For many, the Shadowbringers expansion represents the pinnacle of the game.
I can see why.
And then the moon!
And I love the rock theme so very much.
More so, the storytelling feels improved.
That’s ten years of developer expertise for you.
With Shadowbringers, I also caught up with the Duty Support system that allows players to complete dungeons alone.
I know, I know, I’m that horrible person that plays an MMO alone.
Coupled with a move to PlayStation and controller play - why didn’t I do that sooner?!
This all has led to a changed mindset for me.
It turns out, playing Final Fantasy 14 has become a bit of a metaphor for life really.
