While I don't doubt there is some recency bias, it really says a lot about how good the writing is especially in this last expansion of FFXIV.

Didn't think Vivi and Zidane would be so high!

Now I've got 1% more hope of the nvidia 'ff9 remake' leak actually going somewhere...

Poll is old but yea as someone that hasn't played FF14 I can tell he is extremly popular lol. Not into MMO's but I'm happy FF fans that like MMO's got a new villain that they love.
