A little help

Shelvinarr

Hey everyone, I haven't played FFXIV since 2010, does anyone know if my account qualifies for legacy seeing as it was before 2012? Or if I'll even have to re-purchase the game? I haven't beta tested, but it can't be worse than initial launch back in 2010. 

 

Thank you in advance.

You don't need to repurchase the game.

 

You can log into your account and check if your account has legacy status on SE website. It depends if you subscribed 3 months after they started the legacy campaign.

 

You will be given free game time for the first 14 days when the game launches for having a 1.0 account.

Your 1.0 account will be able to play 2.0 without any additional purchase. (You get to play it free until sept 9th I _think_)

If you had a collector's edition for 1.0 you get all the 2.0 collector's edition in game items.

Legacy is/was a different thing. I forget the exact requirements, but I think you had to pay for 90 days of service (i.e. not when it was F2P) in order to qualify for legacy status.

Your account won't be legacy since you have not played since 2010. Legacy promotion was done last year which requires a player to sub for 90 days straight before server close down.
