Regarding the special chocobo mount for Legacy members
There were questions like "what's the difference between our current personal chocobo and the Legacy one?" as well as "So does this mean we can have two? Will they have different features from our current chocobo?" Currently, the only differences will be visual and we're not planning on there being any feature differences (faster run speed, etc.). In version 2.0, we’re planning new chocobo-related content which will allow you to have more than one chocobo.

Regarding the updated subscription plans and the consolidation of service fee/character fees
The big question being "does this mean we get 40 characters for Legacy/Standard and 8 for Entry for the monthly fee?" Yes, that is correct. You will be able to create up to 40 characters (8 per World) with the Legacy/Standard subscription and 8 (1 per World) with the Entry subscription.

The previous model is being done away with and the two separate fees are being consolidated into one monthly fee. As for what this means for the current Retainer and Market Wards, Yoshida touched on it lightly, but mainly we ask that you wait for further details in regards to the changes planned for the in-game systems.

Regarding the eligibility period and notification of eligibility
Even if you start FFXIV fresh today, and have 30-days of free time, you'll still be able to qualify for the Legacy pricing. We're planning announcements so that everyone will know exactly when the cut off timing will be. When it comes to "how will we know for sure if we're in?", we're planning to email the email address associated to your Square Enix account sometime in May. You'll also be able to log in and check your status via the Square Enix account management system.

Keep your questions, comments and feedback coming!
I don't think so.
