Blaugust Day 19 – First Steps in FFXIV

I finally got a chance to play Final Fantasy and in my 3 hours I got to create 2 different character designs and quest almost to level 2.

First Character Design

My first character design was a Miqo'te Keeper of the Moon. She was similar to my character during my first visit to Eorzea, but I felt I wanted something a bit different.

Second Character Design

My second and final character is a Lalafell Dunesfolk. I decided to go with her because I wanted a smaller frame and I liked the look of her a bit better. In WoW I had to go with a Tauren as my main was a Druid, but Final Fantasy has no limitations I know of for race/class combination, so I went small like I prefer.

A little bit of gameplay

So after I created my character, I did have about an hour to try out the game. I loved the Moogles and hope that I will eventually get to have one as a pet or companion, but the opening sequence did take more time away from my getting into the game. Then there was the 'tutorial' which fortunately was pretty quick, but was pretty familiar nonetheless. And then finally, I was able to run around a little. I completed a couple of quests in the short period of time I was in game and gained 201xp, but didn't reach level 2. So far things are good and I can see that there is a lot of stuff to see, do, and experience so I am looking forward getting more time in game.

It's still not too late to join Blaugust – just go to the initiative page at Tales of the Aggronaut or take a look at the Blaugust Nook on Anook.
