While the earlier levels can be a bit lacking due to many reasons, once this game kicks in, it kicks in HARD. This is one of the best online games i've ever played when we combine the entire first saga (ARR-EW) as one game and im still not done with it. And the narrative alone puts it near the top of the Final Fantasy series. I cannot recommend it enough, especially with how generous the free trial is.

I'm giving these 3 stars simply because it's just for ARR, the other expansions I'm all rating separately as well.
