Final Fantasy XIV
About Final Fantasy XIV
Final Fantasy XIV is Square Enix's subscription-based MMORPG set in the fantasy world of Eorzea. After a disastrous initial launch (the original 2010 version), the game was completely rebuilt in 2013 as 'A Realm Reborn,' becoming one of the genre's most respected turnaround stories. The Final Fantasy series' signature job/class system (any character can switch classes by changing their weapon), visually impressive expansions (Heavensward, Shadowbringers — often considered among the series' best stories), and deep raid/dungeon content make the game unique in the MMORPG genre. With a strong community and regular content updates, it remains an actively evolving game.

How can I get more FPS in Final Fantasy XIV?
In large open-world and story-driven games, the biggest gains usually come from lowering draw distance, volumetric effects, shadows and ray tracing, while keeping texture quality as high as your VRAM allows. Final Fantasy XIV recommends 16 GB of RAM, so check your memory before changing any other setting. Keep your graphics card drivers up to date, lower a few graphics settings (shadows, reflections, draw distance), close unnecessary background apps, and try disabling V-Sync.
