But it’s entirely possible to do all of the content in the Free Trial without ever using these systems. You’ll want to get retainers, start parties, send Tells to friends, and join a Free Company. The more you play, the more these restrictions will start to bite. And even on the overworld, you can still join parties-you just can’t make them. And while there’s a fair amount of required group content, such as dungeons, Final Fantasy XIV gives plenty of options for auto-joining parties to do these. You shouldn’t need to trade or use the Market Board. If invited then you can still join Linkshells, which are effectively in-game chatrooms, so you can still talk to friends with full accounts. But, again, they’re more inconveniences than genuine problems. There’s a chance that some of these will be changed in Final Fantasy XIV 5.3, as I’m writing this prior to it actually dropping, but most are likely to remain. You can’t start a party, you can’t join a Free Company (a guild), and you can’t trade or use the Market Board. You can’t send Tells, nor can you use some of the more global chat commands like Shout or Yell. Thankfully, they’re more of an inconvenience than anything. I suppose the first thing to address is what the limitations are for trial accounts. I’m not going to cover the absolute basics of movement, targeting, and the like, but you can find answers to most of those in the official Play Guide. In it, we’re going to hopefully answer some of the more common questions, dispel some misconceptions, and generally give you a good starting point for your adventures in Eorzea. Of course, you can always skip the free trial and pick up the game immediately.
Also, flying mounts appear in the base areas once you finish the A Realm Reborn questline, which will make the subsequent quests much faster. Thankfully, this new update raises the level cap to 60, and includes the entirety of the first expansion- Heavensward-which really does show off some of the best the MMO has to offer. The story, plot, dungeons, and world don’t really start getting unique and interesting until after that. This wasn’t bad for getting a taste of the game, but it didn’t really show off what makes FFXIV shine. Previously, the Free Trial was capped at level 35. And as of this update, the Free Trial is both extensive and generous. Aside from finishing off the Shadowbringers expansion storyline, it also massively revamps the Free Trial system and streamlines the early content. The incredibly good MMO is, as of the time of writing, about to receive its major 5.3 update. There hasn’t been a better time than now to start out in Final Fantasy XIV.
