Question about legacy

DeminizDeminiz Member UncommonPosts: 30
Hey sorry to bother but I never achieved this "legacy" status during FFXIV but I did purchase the game and subbed for 2 months . Will i have to buy the game when it comes out?

    If you have the game... you can play without buying another.... but if you don't have legacy status, you will have to pay a higher monthly rate and not get other perks (beta priority, more character slots, exclusive choco mount, etc).

     

    Your first month of FFXIV ARR may be free... i'm not sure on that one though.

    Just to add to the accurate information that has already been given in this thread, not all will have received an email if they're legacy.  There are some, including myself, who never got an email, but we had that "Legacy" symbol when you log in and had more than the purchased days required to further solidify it.

    Still, it's highly likely that the vast majority got these emails, but if you're 100% positive you obtained the necessary 90 days paid, then there's a possibility you did.

    In my situation I used the 90 day subscription plan back before it was discontinued and instantly got Legacy the next day I logged in.

    Due to frequent travel in my youth, English isn't something I consider my primary language (and thus I obtained quirky ways of writing).  German and French were always easier for me despite my family being U.S. citizens for over a century.  Spanish I learned as a requirement in school, Japanese and Korean I acquired for my youthful desire of anime and gaming (and also work now).  I only debate in English to help me work with it (and limit things).  In addition, I'm not smart enough to remain fluent in everything and typically need exposure to get in the groove of things again if I haven't heard it in a while.  If you understand Mandarin, I know a little, but it has actually been a challenge and could use some help.

    Also, I thoroughly enjoy debates and have accounts on over a dozen sites for this.  If you wish to engage in such, please put effort in a post and provide sources -- I will then do the same with what I already wrote (if I didn't) as well as with my responses to your own.  Expanding my information on a subject makes my stance either change or strengthen the next time I speak of it or write a thesis.  Allow me to thank you sincerely for your time.

    You can check if you have Legacy Status by logging into your Square Enix Account.  Then under the Service and Options tab on the lower left, click Select Service which will change the main menu to a selection of either FFXI or FFXIV or both if you have an account for both.  

    Click on Final Fantasy XIV obviously and if you have a Legacy account you'll see the Legacy symbol as depicted in the image below:

    Just wanted to thank everyone that contributed to this thread.

    Since hearing about "Legacy" when I went to the ARR beta sign up site, I have been confused about what the requirements were.  I searched the official forums, google, and never found solid details until just now.

    Thanks!
