In terms of plot, this is how Final Fantasy XIV 1.0 ended, and the events in A Realm Reborn come after the survivors leave the ether and return to the world. In fact, right after creating your character, you find yourself floating in nothingness and you are summoned to a higher cause, where you then fly into a giant Aethercrystal and enter Eorzea.

I’m very satisfied with the gameplay in general. I think that Square Enix is probably going to improve some things that will make it a very great game. For what it is right now, it’s a solid MMORPG that has gone through some basic growing pains that any great MMO runs into when it starts out. I think that it can and will keep the interest of a lot of people needing something different (and some similar things) that World of Warcraft can’t offer up at the moment. Is it better than WoW right now? Not at all, but WoW has been out there a long time and has had plenty of time to find out what works and what doesn’t. It could potentially compete against WoW in the future, and I hope it does because that might force Blizzard to drastically change WoW sometime this century.

A Realm Reborn might be just another MMORPG that sticks to the ‘stagnant’ genre formula. To others, though, this game will be a blessing that’s been a long time coming. Does it stick to the MMO tradition? Absolutely. But it takes that tradition and refines it, and captures brilliantly those less tangible elements that make a great game instead of a good one – an inviting, vibrant world, the foundations for a dynamic player economy, and the freedom to take to the world as you please.

A tradition-respecting game through and through, A Realm Reborn isn’t destined to reinvent the MMORPG, but rather, to suitably rearrange the hallmarks of the genre within the confines of the celebrated Final Fantasy franchise. Square Enix dug itself into a deep chasm with the original Final Fantasy XIV, and despite a draggy, unfortunately near-sighted crusade to climb their way out, A Realm Reborn is an immense improvement, and above all, a sincere apology for the emphatic blunder that came before.
