Final Fantasy 11 takes cues from FF14 as Square Enix plans a dramatic free trial expansion

In a change that might actually sway my hand, Final Fantasy 11 is looking to take a cue from its MMORPG sibling FF14 and dramatically expand what its free trial looks like. It's no secret that the FF14 free trial has been a huge part of its success, placing no restrictions on playtime and allowing you to now climb all the way to level 80. Following its most recent upgrade, you can experience the full story of Shadowbringers, widely held as its strongest tale, without spending a single thing.
