Yeah it is definitely a refreshing take, it feels much more like an action rpg with the faster levelling and higher amount of loot drops.

Its easy to see why its so popular. I was playing on Sunday night and there must have been more than 100 players gathered around the Stormwind auction house and the area outside of it. Gotta love the hustle and bustle of a capital city ,it makes the game feel alive.

I've tried most big MMOS but never Final Fantasy 14 .I guess I could look around for private FF14 servers if I need to pay a subscription I likely wont stay interested for long. I imagine there is a free trial of FF14 tho,I should probably check it out one of these days.

I guess ill see how the launch of New World goes, I can see that being the first MMO I've paid for a sub to in over 5 years.
