The game is Final Fantasy XIV. I had a friend wanting me to give it a try, and he bought the standard edition. So my hand was kind of forced. Here's a screenshot i took of the city i started in, Limsa Lominsa, after it started raining. You can see the tail of my Carbuncle there peaking over the top.

There’s a community at !finalfantasyxiv@lemmy.world if you guys have any questions.

I’ll also say that if you are using KB/M to try a controller for a little bit, too. You’ll be surprised at how well it works. I can’t even play this game with a KB/M setup it’s so foreign to me.

I played 2.0-7.0 on KB/M, and now I'm learning to play on Steam Deck (so a controller is mandatory). It is surprising easy for DPS and tanks, but I'm still struggling with Healers.

Steam Deck was how I chose to play it too for my first time yesterday (though I played on the dock with PS3 controller). I chose arcanist, and it’s really smooth sailing for me.

I started with the Arcanist too, then Scholar. I really liked the gameplay.

Then I changed main class almost every expansion, starting with the Dark Knight, then Dancer, Sage, and now back to Dancer. None of the new classes caught my fancy this time 😅.

Do you use XIVLauncher?

Yeah. XIVLauncher was the only way I could get it to boot on Steam Deck
