It's really great, I have been a WoW veteran since Vanilla beta so I can't say it isn't my #1 MMO still, but in its current state I'd definitely say that FF14 is the better MMO with a far more pleasant and comfy experience. It starts very slow, the story is boring and the main scenario quest design sucks in the base game before the first addon making you do fetch quests a lot, but if you can fight through those first ~20hours it is really worth it and only gets better with every addon. Community is very friendly and memey, there is social happenings and random RPing everywhere, dungeons are great, classes/jobs are great, it just does everything right.
There is a free trial btw that let's you play the base game + the first addon until lvl60, which is like 50-100hours content, so just try it out.
