MMORPG gameplay mechanics

FF XIV: Online gameplay features include a variety of mechanics that the veteran players of MMOs will easily recognize. For example, one of the key mechanics is the party system. The players can team up to tackle quests and challenges. Some of them even require the players to show up in specified numbers, before they can be accomplished. The game allows the players to form guilds, called the Free Companies, which unlocks various perks and new missions to accomplish.

The heroes of Eorzea

The player’s character, a nameless adventurer, can represent one of several classes, falling under four disciplines: War, Magic, Hand, and Land. These classes are determined by what equipment the character carries, while disciplines decide on their specific skills. The classes available in the Starter Edition include Gladiator, Rogue, Pugilist, Arcanist, and more. Some of them can be expanded with specific jobs: Gladiator can be hired as a Warrior, Rogue can take on the mantle of a Ninja, and so on. These options make for an elaborate class system, in which the player has a lot of flexibility in creating their character.

The Tale of the Warriors of Light

The Warriors of Light were the most heroic adventurers of the realm of Eorzea. Their identities were mysteriously wiped from the minds of the Eorzea citizens, but the memory of their deeds remains. As Eorzea faces an invasion from the Garlean Empire, and mysterious forces seem to be working in the shadows to bring about an even worse disaster, a young adventurer arrives in one of the Eorzean towns, full of hope and eager to help. Because of their actions, a rumor has spread that the legendary adventurers have returned to help Eorzea once again.
