^^^This 100%^^^, ffxiv is fun at first, once the honeymoon phase ends, many like myself return to wow, or try something else.
The absolute best good thing about ffxiv is that it gives you a whole new unprecedented appreciation for just how excellent wow is, perfect no, but compared to any other mmorpg, it's in it own stratosphere, which isn't the best thing either, as when you're on top you become complacent, so another good thing about ffxiv is that the ffxiv is the greatest mmo becasue it's not wow woke the sleeping giant up.
