Much better story, faster combat, a talent system, real dungeons. What the fuck? Why do people prefer FF14? This is much better. It does 80% of WoW's mechanics wrong.

>Why do people prefer FF14?
because it's better than current WoW and a lot of people don't like playing WoW private servers due to things like low populations, uncertain futures and non-blizzlike features.

Intrinsic motivation.

>[picture]
A game's appeal benefits from playing and mastering that game. For WoW, this is a class, a rotation/priority, utility, etc. For the genre, it's (innovatively, at least) mobility, multiplayer grouping and spacing..

Then there's autonomy, the effect of choices on the character's experience and on the land. Youtube/WoWCrendor mentions something like gear dyes, the farms / zones producing dye captured.. This comes with a form of extrinsic reward (dyes), but the experience is still fun through intrinsic motivation.

Next is relatedness, and MMO threads / the industry are already explaining this well. Something sort of rare in the discussion is non-instancing (for PvE).

FFXIV's story is just FFI's story with primals. WoW has factions and history.
