Hello
I've wanted to get into FFXIV for some time now, but in spite of giving the trial a look my girlfriend hasn't wanted to take the plunge. Â We've been enjoying WoW's Legion since it launched, but she's ready now to give FF a real try, and I want to make sure it has the maximum chance to reel her in. Â I know the concept of jumping past story elements is controversial in such a story-driven game, but my gf just can't get into the low-level story and simplistic combat over the first 20+ levels. Â Â
So with that as the setup, if we DO start out with Stormblood content, beyond the most important step of learning how to play a job competently what important things are there that we will not have done that we need to go back and catch up on from a gameplay standpoint? Â Any important unlocks? Â Reputation gains? Â Chocobo training? Â Â Etc....
Thank you SO much for any advice other than "Play through the full game." Â I know that would be ideal, but unfortunately I don't think it's a viable option if I want her to fall in love with FFXIV.
