There are a few requirements including having an inactive account for at least 30-days and having had an account in good standing.

well idk where you got a full month from 4 days. Maybe a week, but not a month lol
Who plays a game for 4 days straight??
Aloha Mr Hand !
This isn't a signature, you just think it is.
The time starts as soon as you log in and update the client and runs out on the 4th day whether you played or not.

Ah, seen it was until January 4TH so my basic Logic at least to me would be i could play for 96hrs until then, not just 4 days, so i guess it's would be just a huge waste of time, they should've offered a longer time frame, why i thought i month would have been worth it.
Larger player base over the holdidays would bring more people to the game then just 4 days.... worthless attempt to bring ppl back imo.
Pretty much
You play FFXIV for the story, not for its atrocious combat.
Sad thing is FFXIV 1.0 was far far better with combat (pseudo action), but they slowly turned it into an auto-attack cooldown based garbage like WoW, except made it OVER TWICE AS SLOW.
Was the biggest issue I had with the game when I finally returned to after its 2.0 release. I beared it for the story, but anything that involved combat just made me irate.
Best hope is to play monk as they have a shorter GCD, but it's still the absolute weakest part of the game.
Anyway, I guess I can finally login to see how terribly laggy the servers are now that they moved them to the opposite side of the US. Used to ping them for 20.. now it's over 100, yay.
AN' DERE AIN'T NO SUCH FING AS ENUFF DAKKA, YA GROT! Enuff'z more than ya got an' less than too much an' there ain't no such fing as too much dakka. Say dere is, and me Squiggoff'z eatin' tonight!

Including the day on which you first log in, the free login period lasts approximately four days. For example, players who log in on December 2, 2017 at 12:00 a.m. can play free of charge until December 5, 2017 at 11:59 p.m. I mean, why use such fancy words if it's so simple - 4 days from the second you log in?
True, the last time they did this i logged in the first day, and when i tried to play again later that week my time was already gone. Makes no sense. Not a really smart way to bring people to the game.
Anyone? I don't want to waste all the time needed setting this up when an easy answer would let me know if I think it will be worth it.
Aloha Mr Hand !
ehm things has changed a bit , leveling is now faster , thanks to deep dungeon .
char develpoment has changed now u dont need to level alts (outside job quest for example Paladin u need gladiator 30 and conjuror 15) but u dont have cross class skills anymore all the jobs now unlock extra skills (u can only use 5 at max level) that are based on the role (tank ,healer , melee ,caster or ranged) so u arent forced to level Lancer to 44 in order to get blood for blood for example.
there are plans for talents or some form of job development in the future but not right now...
the game is faster now , tons of oGCD (outside global cd skills) , skill speed , and CD reduction buffs (ninja , sam , mnk all have some ).
Played 2 days already , finished MSQ and the new 4.1 dungeon , today gonna finish the 24 raid (Return to ivalice ) .
Fun game but still lacks content at endgame for casuals and midcore (albeit raids are easier now than before) , and there is a super hard raid , but u run out of content too fast once u have the omega raid on farm. (4.2 will bring new omega raid tho) but 6 month for 4 bosses (+ some primal ) is really poor content.
