Would I? Absolutely I would. Square Enix has announced that, upon the launch of version 2.0, players who qualify for the “legacy” system will receive special perks: A discounted subscription ($9.99) and 8 max playable characters per world, as well as an exclusive Chocobo pet and your name in the credits if you wish.
Users with 90 cumulative days of subscription between January 6th and the launch of 2.0 beta testing are eligible. Over at FFXIV Core, an administrator has posted that the last day to register your copy of FFXIV and still be able to qualify is the coming May 31st, meaning 2.0 will probably start beta testing in October (one free month plus three paid).
If you were interested in getting back on board with Square to get your hands on the legacy rewards, you only have a couple of days left to do so. I left a previous article on this matter rather ambiguous, as there was no cutoff date announced at the time.
More on FFXIV as it appears.
