Final Fantasy 14 roundtable: Our favorite moments, characters, music and more

Ahead of Endwalker’s release, let’s look back at our favorite memories of Final Fantasy 14.

Final Fantasy 14: Endwalker has officially entered early access for the general public, ushering in the conclusion to the near-decade long story that started with A Realm Reborn in 2013.

Though Endwalker isn’t the end of Final Fantasy 14, it is set to conclude the conflict between Hydaelyn and Zodiark, all the while wrapping up many of the game’s plot points and character journeys we’ve been following for the last eight years. Final Fantasy 14 exploded in popularity over the summer, so much so that the servers are set to be tested for the large influx of players ready to bear witness to the conclusion of many of the game’s story arcs.

Oh, and even Doja Cat has spent some time wandering around Eorzea in her free time.

In celebration of the release of Endwalker, I thought it’d be a fun exercise to get ForTheWin‘s resident Final Fantasy 14 players together for a little roundtable discussion on some of our favorite (and least favorite) moments and experiences in the game.

Joining me on this trip down memory lane are FTW editor and columnist Nick Schwartz and GLHF’s Kyle Campbell. Let’s begin!
