The 'Critically Acclaimed MMORPG' meme stems from the persistent and enthusiastic marketing of Final Fantasy XIV’s expansive free trial. What began as a genuine promotional script by Square Enix—offering the base game and the award-winning Heavensward expansion for free—was quickly adopted by the player base as a humorous 'copypasta.' It is used to mock the relentless evangelism of FFXIV fans who seemingly cannot stop recommending the game to anyone who will listen. The meme typically appears in contexts where someone is trying to have a normal conversation, only to be interrupted by a fervent pitch for the game, often accompanied by the specific 'no restrictions on playtime' phrasing.
