Final Fantasy 14's next big challenge: Making players feel like they're getting their monthly sub's worth—not just funding Square's flops while WoW stacks value

The Warrior of Light enters a battle stance, preparing to thrash some poor sod in Final Fantasy 14: Dawntrail.

On the whole, I can thoroughly say I liked Dawntrail. Oh sure, I have huge, critical thoughts about its story, but as far as Final Fantasy 14 expansions go, Dawntrail brought a lot to the table on its opening night. A massive graphics overhaul, zones with a far bigger visual scope, and some of the best battle content we've seen out of the team in years.

I'm also excited for what's to come. In terms of stuff to do, FF14 is going to be stacked with a ton of it by the time the expansion's over. Variant dungeons, a new limited job, a new exploration zone, savage versions of alliance raids, whatever the heck planetary exploration is. I'm hyped! But I'm also barely playing the damn thing.
