Weve all experienced games that hit us so hard that well never forget them.
Thats the beauty of an MMORPG.
Youre part of a shared experience that spans years.
So, which events do I love to relive the most?
(Fair warning, there are spoilers ahead for anyone who is not up to date.)
The lead-up to the first expansion is where I can first pinpoint being truly captivated by the story.
Ill never forget taking my first steps into Ishgard alongside the softly falling snow.
Even the manner of dress for the local NPCs was different from anything wed seen before.
Heavensward was when the game really began to punch us in the heart.
Heavensward is my favourite expansion.
However, there are still plenty of moments that came after that have etched themselves into my memory.
And where do I even begin with Endwalker?
Elpis has to be the pivotal part of this expansion that players remember the most.
It was here where I really questioned whether I wanted the Warrior of Light to win.
It was unsettling to have Zenos take control of your characters body.
It felt like a violation.
But it gave us one of the most brilliantly panicked main scenario quests.
Despite that, I cant help but applaud the game for its extraordinary and unique sequence.
The other part of Endwalker that will stay with me the most is the chapter of Ultima Thule.
Months later, Im still not over it.
Now the only question is, what do I replay next?
