The reworked A Realm Reborn scenario makes it even easier to get into - or back into - and the addition of Heavensward for all players will give you even more of a great game … and ridiculously good value./r/Games is for informative and interesting gaming content and discussions.
Once you log on, you’ll find the full Heavensward experience is already there ready to play (as soon as you finish A Realm Reborn, of course). To start playing, all you need to do is re-subscribe to the game. It’s not just new players who get access to all of this additional content-anyone who’s played FINAL FANTASY XIV Online before, whether you bought the original A Realm Reborn or the Starter Edition - will also have Heavensward and its content and benefits added to their accounts. The new content has been automatically added to existing players’ accounts There’s now so many different ways to play - and as you can switch jobs at any time, there’s hundreds of hours of gameplay to be had just experimenting with the different jobs and roles. Of course, these are on top of all the jobs that were included in A Realm Reborn. Machinists are gear-heads who can bring all sorts of fun gizmos into battle - a really unique job that offers a different experience-and robots (once you’re experienced enough!). For example, Dark Knights are tough armor-clad warriors that can take plenty of hits from enemies as they restore HP and MP with attacks from their massive greatswords - perfect for those of us who like to confront their enemies head on.Īstrologians are a great option for anyone who likes to lend a helping hand - they’re healers who use their mastery of the arcana to assist their allies and help turn the tide of battles. This is fantastic, because they’re super-fun to play.
Previously, you wouldn’t be able to enjoy these jobs unless you purchased the Heavensward expansion, but now that it is included in the Free Trial and Starter Edition, you can dive into any of these jobs as soon as you reach level 50 with a Disciple of War or Magic job and complete the A Realm Reborn scenario. The updates to the FINAL FANTASY XIV Online Free Trial and Starter Edition add three new jobs for players of those versions of the game: Dark Knight, Astrologian, and Machinist. Three additional jobs are now also included as standard This is still as rich and deep as you’d expect from a FINAL FANTASY game - just streamlined so you can continue your adventure in Heavensward and beyond a bit more quickly, and a more welcoming experience to new players than ever before. Let’s be clear though, A Realm Reborn’s campaign still offers an exciting adventure. Again, it makes the progression faster and more rewarding than ever before.
Not only that, but elements like experience and quest rewards have also been adjusted to account for the new changes. Some quests have been altered, others have been removed entirely, but it essentially means you spend less time to-ing and fro-ing between different quest-givers, and more time doing the fun stuff like battling fearsome foes, exploring the varied locales of Eorzea and experiencing the game’s fascinating story.
The development team set out with the goal of ensuring a smoother journey through main scenario for newer players, and took steps to streamline that original main scenario, including all story content through Patch 2.5. Okay, let’s lay our (Triple Triad) cards on the table: FINAL FANTASY XIV: A Realm Reborn in its original form was a big game.
