Who all here is going going to make new character on a new server?

I know I am, I just have this weird feeling that the economy for existing servers are still going to have the mentality of 1.0. I'm just curious of who is going to make a New Character on a New Server?

I might. Will still keep my current one but maybe ill try maining 2 of them? :-)

I will if they don't let me transfer to the correct region right away. But I'll be pissed if I have to.

My plan was to try and play this game as little as possible so I wouldn't mind starting over again... but uh, so much for that after the last two months of leveling every job and getting all the garuda weapons, dl, etc

I wasn't sure how invested I'd become in FFXIV coming back in August, but as it turns out the answer is "Pretty damn invested". I will not make a new character, I like my current character and if I have to suck it up in the JP datacenter until I can transfer later, then that's what I'll do. It's so not worth going through some of this stuff all over again just to be able to transfer slightly earlier.

Edit: The whole server transfer snafoo was cleared up here...

I might tool around with a new character but I have no plans to completely start over. I feel I have way too much invested into my current character.

I'll make a new character, but same server. I only want to experience the new start/new race/tutorials, and to see the fresh new world through the eyes of someone new.

He'll be an alt though. I'll never stop playing my Llen.

Almost definitely not.

^^This. Just look at my signature!

I've been debating making a new character on a new server in 2.0, but so much work put into this character, but if lvling really is suppose to be faster maybe it won't be that big of a deal. Idk yet.

I'm going to if they don't allow name change..which they still have not announced :(

I am making a new character on a new server. I will still keep my character now but I rather start 2.0 fresh as right now I don't know if I would enjoy 2.0 all that much should I just go over with my LS and my level 50 rather experience the new content fresh.

i will, though, i will be active with my current linkshell at the same time to though :P have already made a ls for arr and started putting up info actually, im looking forward to a fresh start, a good economy, and starting out with a ls with people ive planned with from beta (and new players also welcome of course) point is, i wanna be early to get free companies etc so they get leveled as i level :) would anyone be interested in joining in even if arr isnt up yet and it wont really be linked before arr is out of course? oh, it will be on one of the new european servers btw.

i will!!!!

Nope. 10chars.

I was going to work my butt off leveling a job or two this month but with the way the economy is looking like on the old servers, I think I'm just going to wait and roll on a new server so i dont have to worry about inflation & people with capped or nearly capped gil.

If i do it'll just be for the story's..

I'll be starting off on a new server. A fresh start with the hopes of finding a bunch of new friends. I just hope to see some old faces come back from the initial launch from my old LS.

not no, but hell no. only way i start a new character to play on is if i am starting to play a completely new game.

no, it's really not. i'd be giving up 2 years worth of effort. it's like thinking about if i did something like clicked a bad link i can't imagine me signing up for the game again. it's just too much effort i'd have to redo.

i'm not saying i won't take my alt up to see the new story, but i'm talking about completely removing all the effort and work i've done and start over.

Oh no, I wasn't expecting anyone to forget about their mains, I am keeping my main even :P. I'm just saying that throughout the story I wanna experience in a new body till I complete the main story arc. then I'll do it all over again with my Main and continue where I left off with my main.

That's how I'm going to do it. Do whatever make you happy and have fun! =)

now see that i agree with. now remember until just a little bit ago we were told we couldn't transfer servers without starting over. i had in mind the starting a new char to play on a regional server..... that i would have just kept my main and not started over.

i'm soooooo glad i seen that correction.

I am. or am i?

I will too. But probably not gonna be on it often.

Gonna make one and play the lv1~30 content that I'd otherwise never play on my main character.

Might as well i get to make 39 new characters for free.

I'll probably make as many as I can for the hell of it, though I'll still focus on doing things on one server.

will do for sure
will keep current as back up but will make new one as main

Probably will not. Will do some new characters though, to get the "new character" experience of ARR, as well as experience the other town/GC storylines.

I was going to say there is no chance at all of me making a new character but I did have a thought while writing this. There are a few minor things that I was never quite happy with about Cynthis appearance that looked much better in the character creation than in the actual gameplay.

If I remember this when the servers come back up, which is doubtful, I might first make a new character or two to test the different new features in the character creation to make sure I get Cynthis just right. I wish SE would just introduce barbers, tattoo parlors and plastic surgeons so this was not necessary...

Of course then I will have several very similar looking character. I might also try one of the new races just for fun. If I end up creating these different characters I might just use one as an alt to experience the new low level content and later as a mule.

My plan is to devote pretty much all my gaming time to Cynthis though.
