Well, Friend persisted over the years to get me to try 14 and ended up buying two copies of the game, one for me and one for my s.o.
so I thanked him and promised I'd at least go through all the story missions with him, then decide if I want to keep playing. It's fun enough so far, but havent started stormblood yet. Iceheart is definitely my fav character, that death cs slayed me. I'm on byrnhilde but afk most of the time.
