FF14 is fine, mostly PvE stuff sadly. It does have PvP but its all arena/structured and not open world. It should last you a month at least, assuming semi-serious playtime (like 2-4 hours daily).

Hmm. It's no longer on sale on Steam though. Blah.

Maybe I'll take a look at the games I got on my Steam library that I haven't played yet...

I mean don't get me wrong, its a fun game, but once you get to the endgame content and beat the hardest dungeons it gets stale VERY fast. That's mainly why I stopped playing; my guild got the hardest boss in the game on farm status, and the drive/desire to level an alt isn't there because of how the game is set up (one avatar can play all of the jobs, given enough time/effort/leveling) so what else is there for you to do? The content itself is hard, often requiring party cooperation but once the hurdles are passed its just doing the same rotations until the boss is dead.

Why's it so unlikely you'll hit diamond?

Highest population of any server, so that problems due to high load always appear there first, and are fixed for the other servers before it breaks there.

Because it will require significant improvements from my part to be able to reach low diamond.

So what's with the recent surge of pro players picking up Maw instead of just sitting on Hexdrinker? Is it just for the bigger shield on the passive? I remember people talking about the item and how's it not worth finishing early for it's combat stats so I'm wondering what changed.

Its good on Kha because the shield is bigger so you get the interaction with your passive, plus when you come out of ult at 1/3 HP you get a pretty nontrivial AD boost. Riven seems also like a good candidate for Maw since you often fight at low HP abusing the E shield.

Maybe because most people picking it up now are junglers, and the reason to not upgrade it was because of slot inefficiency, which they dont care about as much?

Hmm, that's a good point about Junglers. Seen in on Kha and KaKAO built it on Noc in OGN but he was against a Karthus so that makes sense since you'd want the bigger shield for his ults.

Nerf to Spirit Visage means that Hexdrinker is comparatively a better Mres item. Banshees is still good but not always appropriate, Maw has way better buildpath for the early game (Hexdrinker vs. Cowl)

if you are against any sort of magic damage as a melee character you want hexdrinker 99% of the time, it's quite a good/strong item due to it's ability to throw off calculations of good players.
