New Player Guide to Final Fantasy 14 Online (FFXIV)

This might be the best guide I've ever seen and as a 63 year old gamer I really appreciate your detail.

Guides like this are awesome for infrequent gamers like myself. It helps me get the most of my limited play hours.

Amazing video. Thanks!

Long time player and figured I'd watch your vid to pass a little time. I appreciate how thorough you are, and got about 25 minutes in before seeing it was 5 HOURS long. 🤣Liked n subbed, may watch the rest later.. Need somethin else to listen to now though.

I don't use the tip of my pinky for the ctrl button, instead I use the umm...base area of it to just smash the ctrl button lol cuz...big hands...

Yo, I absolutely love that this guy reminds me of my middle-school math teacher. I feel like if I forgot to equip my job stone after switching between a crafting job and black mage he would send a letter home to my parents to discuss my recent performance.

The intro to this video was so cursed amazing! 🤩

I couldn’t watch this: don’t wear a suit and tie to talk about a video game, please iron shirt, please put on a t-shirt/undershirt, please fix that mess under your collar on the right side. So many distractions that it made even watching this hard so I didn’t bother.

Wait, are you the guy who made a super comprehensive guide how to mod Morrowind to make it more fun for a modern gamer?

Not even a new player still found a few useful tidbits well done bro

Wait, a 5 hour guide???

I have a mouse with a lot of buttons and is a godsend for this game

Not me a player with 1000 hours put on a single character watching a 5 hour newbie guide just cuz I really like long form content about ffxiv

The shere volume of thgis videos is truly incredible that you have compiled this. Cudos dude.

I just watched a 5+ hour beginner guide to a game I don't play while playing a different game. I'm fine with that.

Why you look like one of the NPC characters on there 😂

Thanks for the guide. Nice suit!

Fancy meeting you again! How the hell have I missed this??! Oh yeah, I've been playing FFXIV. I've missed you since I put down Skyrim. Yet another job well done.

A five hour guide that isn't specific 😭 lol Honestly though this is amazing. Great job!

Thanks for the comprehensive guide and especially all the time stamps for easy navigation. I have it in my resources channel on my discord. Some of us SWTOR players have been trying out FFXIV, and this guide is so helpful for answers to specific questions.

You remind me of Steven Armstrong from MGS.

Sooo what 689,000 solo quests insted of 689,001 solo quests

Playing FFXIV and keep coming back to this guide, I cannot stress how useful it is. The UI section for instance, blows my mind that some things you've covered aren't on by default like the enemy special attack bar. Even some minor things you've covered made my life much easier, fantastic work all in all.

First time free trial player here ❤. Time skips are perfect thank you.

holy crap, this is the most detailed guide i have ever seen....

I dont play ffxiv but I am interested to hear about it, thanks Zaric.

Now a guide on how it's possible that I was enjoying the free trial perfectly fine for free, and after deciding to buy the game on steam (and it failing to install at all) and then on Square's website (and failing to install at all) I've spent 60 fucking euros and now I hate the guts out of this focking game. Now that guide would be useful, fgs

This is insane. I have watched a lot of these sort of videos and still learned tons of stuff I didn’t know about from this one

Great guide!! Do you have a listing of all your keybindings other than what you shown in the video?

I highly recommend trying out a controller I find it more intuitive . I use a keyboard for Typing

SONY crying because xbox is buy cod, but here sony is stopping ff xiv from coming to xbox..... POS gaming companies. fuk both corprations and fuk blizzard wizards of the coasts too

Dude! Thanks so much. I just started but I’m totally gonna watch all of this.

Very kind, Mr. CIA agent

Zaric: 1st off, this is the 1st video of yours I've ever watched. 2nd, Either you did an AMAZING JOB or I really have an obsession with FFXIV. 5 hour video? C'mon dude! But, you NAILED it. If they had a college course on FFXIV....they would just need your video played on repeat. So detailed. Loved your division of labor/breakdowns. You hit all the high and salient points with HELPFUL opinions (that is important and rare in FFXIV utbues) and you had just the right about of subtle snark when needed to things that are generally canon snarks in the community and that shows a love and understanding of the community. I have never seen a better overview of the game. S.E. should include a link on The Lodestone. !B Thumbs up.

Playing most games without audio, I am always baffled why people care about voiced dialogue. From my experience, most (western) voiced dialogue is bad and slow, and would be improved by just being text.

And the claim that a multiplayer game can have not-terrible story? X on that.

I will save that masterpiece for my transfer from WoW. Thanks for dedication

The button bloat in this game is outrageous. I find it almost necessary to use a mouse with side buttons.

Worst game ever ..... Maybe good when launched but past it now.,,,

Ive only played the game since the heavansward expansion was new but sure ill watch a 5 hour long new player guide
Edit:WTF I had no idea auto target was a thing this changes LITERALLY EVERYTHING

I love videos like this. I came to 14 After A Realm Reborn dropped. And when I learned Yoshi-P had Made an MMO in little over a Year I was blown away at the Size and Quality of A Realm Reborn.

Regarding the brand-new ring (as well as criclet of friendship and exp earrings from pre-order) these exp bonuses apply when you're synced down.. instances or fates.. and stack with each other.. enjoy more exp ;)

Amazing work!! Thanks

bro you are my god damn hero, great tutorial my guy

Just what i needed B)

i played 700 hours Warframe after your guide and now i started ff14 i love your opinions and i wanna ask can you do guide for Guild Wars 2

Is there a way to watch your playthrough of this game?

Very comprehensive and well crafted video. Thank you.
