The box should come with a damn warning about the existing servers economy heh.
No, just no. New players will be levelling up their crafts too and creating a large supply of level 20 items. A large supply of level 20 items currently does not exist because the number of low level players is small and it's not worth people like me making them.

Do you really believe people with over 100mil are that stupid? Those items could be worthless in V2. In the unlikely event that we're going to lose gil due to a lower cap that gil will be moved to other characters well in advance.
