That bust size is not what I would consider "Very Large". >_>;
Also, I gotta say I'm a bit disappointed that they are still going to use the same class system. I guess I really shouldn't have expected much different. They'd just have been better off if they stuck to the FFXI class system. They also still need Dark Knights or I'm definitely never going to give XIV another go. I'd probably be someone placated if they at least added Great Swords and battle Scythes (since they used normal sickle scythes for gathering). Just not worth playing if I can't be what I want.
I assumed they are handling the jobs the same as the original version though, where i was a Gladiator but to be a PLD i had to switch to the soul item, so i was still a gladiator just with the title of PLD and some stat changes and new skills. Meaning being DRK will probly be the same way around since i didn't see these jobs listed in the create a char screens but they are still in RR. It was nice to not have to level BOTH jobs though. Just level GLD and my PLD was the same level as my GLD was.
I suppose that could be another, slightly strange, option. It doesn't quite fit for Gladiator, but then.. maybe it would. *shrug* Interesting idea though.
i believe it was said that we get a cosmetic rehaul.What about players that already have a rank 50? Are we gonna be able to "remake" the cosmetic side of our character using all those new customization options?
or are we going to be stuck choosing between playing our plain old Pre-ARR R50, and restarting from beginning?
Well I know what you are saying, but really with the economy being what it is. Free to play MMOs just make sense. I can't even afford a subscription based game the way things are in my life at the moment. So I'm afraid, while I might try out the 3 free months, assuming that doesn't come with a subscription already attached. However after that I'm probably not likely to come back unless I experienced something pretty special during my free time play, and assuming I have the money to afford a monthly fee for a game at the time. I know already that none of my local friends will be playing it. So already that is kind of an incentive for me not to stick around for long. :/
DRK would entice me to give the game a try though and possibly stick around long enough to obtain it and see what it's like in the new FFXIV, again assuming I have the money to afford the monthly fee.

The whole game is a cosmetic overhaul and if you looked at the screen shots look much more reminiscent of FFXI then V.1.0 did.
Just an FYI to people that haven't been following or know what's going on about the story now in FFXIV. I find it pretty interesting. The base story has practically been scratched. I think we can all agree it was a snooze. The story we experienced in FFXIV V.1.0 comes to an end with a climatic fight and the existing world being thrown into the future by Meteor. The old world is reshaped geographically and the old population of Hydaelyn (V.1.0 players) are transported to the future Hydaelyn and reborn. Hence, we all reawaken to a new story and join the "future" people of the realm in FFXIV:ARR (V.2.0) and we experience a whole new main story and world.
Sounds pretty neat to me.
Forget conventional leveling through. Apparently XP is coming from quests and you can go from level 1 to 50 off of the main storyline alone. No more Valkrum Dunes 5 hour afternoon parties.
