A story so good that it could have easily been its own Final Fantasy. Soken's score and Ishikawa's writing are in top form here, proving that the franchise could still be redeemed after XIII, XV and XIV 1.0's shortcomings.

Besides that, the various improvements and additional content (a particular highlight being the Eden raid series) finally pushed it beyond World of Warcraft as the MMORPG most deserving of your attention.

And even if future updates should spoil it somehow; remember, remember that it lived.
