  1. Recently came from wow imprisonment to Final fantasy – i am glad that you are still kicking, that you are making videos and all! Also thanks for the video, very helpful.

  2. What I didn't like about their pricing model is that once you buy a subscription you cannot use the free trial again, and since I level slowly and am an altaholic I wont hit level 60 on all 25+ classes anytime soon. This means even when I tried to give them some money I couldn't as it would mean I'd have to buy the recurring subscription to keep playing.

    So what I ended up doing was playing and levelling classes/jobs with the idea that I'd purchase it once I'd exhausted most of the trial – however I got bored and moved on before then. I really wish there was an option to continue using the trial if your subscription lapses.

  3. Thanks Tsetzuko for the video, I was actually wondering about that the other day. I'm hoping to level some FF, but started playing the Swords of Legends online and its not bad.

  4. Thank you for this.
    Any guesses on how long it will be before the "complete edition" will be complete, with endwalker included? Will it increase in price? Kind of thinking of staying trial until then.

  5. You might not be ff14 customer service, but you're a bit psychic. Lol. This was exactly what I was looking for to decide on the route to go when buying the game. I've ended up starting on the free trial version. I didn't realize the restrictions when I started though. Looking forward to the unrestricted play and the expansion.
    Thanks again!

  6. Brilliant. I have a question….I've never played an MMO, but watched the Baldurian Asmondgold having fun so thought I'd give an MMO a try.
    A few days later……Trial version Level 32 Lancer and I'm hooked. As the packages are currently on sale – £14 for the FINAL FANTASY® XIV ONLINE COMPLETE EDITION [PC DOWNLOAD] version. Seems like a no brainer…..
    My questions before I purchase:
    1 – Will I be overwhelmed with the 'full' experience? Does it unlock a lot more than the Free Trial or just some QOLife stuff? There's already a lot to learn IMO.
    2 – Will the three expansions auto install and change my experience? Are the mechanics altered at all?
    3 – Can I install the expansions separately? As in, when I've finished ARReborn, can I enter the Heavensword code?, or do the expansion elements only unlock when the previous expansion is complete?
    Cheers for this video. Extremely helpful. THANK YOU!

  7. So, in my case, will I be forced to wait until November?. Because I can kind of buy only one expansion through Steam and they don't release a full edition ever, there's always only one expansion and it complicates me because buying something for dollars is very difficult, my country's currency is different and the only place that I can buy is in steam, which makes me very sad with the part of Square enix that doesn't give me more options when buying, like buying in that country's currency on the website
