In D&D, you’ll get to choose not just your character’s race and class, but also their alignment, background, personality traits, ideals, flaws, and bonds. Any FFXIV player who’s spent nearly an hour designing their perfect avatar while listening to the Crystal Theme can rest assured that creating a character in D&D is just as much fun, if not even more so. MMORPGs like Final Fantasy XIV are the direct descendant of the tabletop gaming experience, and the process of character creation is just as engrossing across both mediums. While FFXIV fans might need to trade their gamepads or keyboards for pens, paper, and D&D Beyond, the roleplaying DNA shared by both of these long-running franchises will make them feel right at home. Nearly 35 years later, with the release of the Endwalker expansion for Final Fantasy XIV, the game’s D&D roots are still present-and there’s never been a better time to dive into the world of tabletop roleplaying to investigate these connections for yourself. Ever since its humble origins on the Nintendo Entertainment System in 1987, the Final Fantasy franchise has drawn from the grand tradition of tabletop roleplaying games started by Dungeons & Dragons.
