    Silly thread. If someone is truly a fan of something, they won't miss any new information regarding the product. All I see are a bunch of bandwagon people seeing FFXIV in its new light and wanting what people, who stuck, and payed to play the game, no matter its condition, get a status showing such loyalty to the IP.

    People who missed by a month I sympathize with. But the rest....whatever. The same people complaining about the title are the same ones back in Jan. 2012 that said I'm not paying for this crap game(their mind set of the games value)

    I paid every month just to give SE some money in their bank for the games backing, and a lot of others did the same., paid 4-10 months straight.

    Same here! I feel I helped support SE a little. the Legacy members are kinda like the Kickstarter's of small projects from Kickstarter.com! You fund a good idea for it's idea ONLY! and in turn are rewarded with benefits for getting the project off the ground!

    If they change the rule it will be like what happened to me and Star Trek Online. I pay for $200 Lifetime membership to play without a subscription and before the lifetime membership even begins to pay for itself in 2 1/2 years? The game goes Free to play? Do I get my money back? hell no. So I'm kinda leery about lifetime memberships in MMO's with the whole Free 2 Play craze most are going to :P

    TBH, I would rather pay a standard subscription for a "GOOD" game like Final Fantasy XIV:A Realm Reborn than deal with all the micro transaction crap a lot of MMO's are going to. ESPECIALLY when they start selling gamplay items that make a difference in gameplay, weapons, Armor that isn't just cosmetic, and experience! Like Planetside 2, you pay you get a whole bunch of certificates that you need to unlock different things in the game. The one saving grace about PS2 is you can earn everything without paying! Which I love, but it's mind-numbingly stupid grind to get that amount of XP and certificates in game!

    I paid every month up until the end from when they started charging until they stopped. Even if ARR is going to be fantastic there's so many things I still preferred and will miss from the original version. Just yesterday a LS member and I made brand new characters and ran some leves just outside of Gridania for nostalgia, did a behest, then logged out for the evening.

    And this:

    It would be worth it, so, so worth it.
    I so want one of those shirts, except make the face resembling a moogle! Someone do it, now!
