To celebrate the 10th Anniversary of Final Fantasy XIV, one player transcribed and compiled a written archive of main scenario quests and side quests from the 1.0 version of the game. mirkemenagerie on X, formerly known as Twitter, described this as a passion project that took them several years to complete. To celebrate the 10th Anniversary of FFXIV, they have made the 1.0 archive public.
The document itself is divided into five different sections, these being:
- Main Scenario Quests
- Grand Company Quests
- Side Quests
- Class & Job Quests
- NPC Talk Text & Newspapers
mirkemenagerie also included brief descriptions beneath the FFXIV main scenario quests, Grand Company quests, side quests, class and job quests, and NPC talk and newspaper that detail the information found in each. That said, the archive of FFXIV 1.0 is an extremely dense read. While there have been attempts to restore content to an emulated version of the 1.0 release, progress has been relatively slow.
Outside of player run projects, Square Enix released a series of FFXIV short stories to commemorate the anniversary of the game. This includes one for fan favorite character, Estinien Wrymblood. These short stories will be released periodically throughout the month of September.
Final Fantasy XIV is available for the PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, and PC.
