Now that I have a credit card and a steady source of income, I have been thinking of playing FFXI again. First time I played was about for a week or two only because life decided to mess with me and steal all my free time. That was two years ago.
My character was a low level Taru WHM/BLK on Middy. For other reasons, I also had an unpaid month back in '07 (that's when I last played). Now I have two options:
1. Apparently I can re-activate my old account, but last time I checked (which was like in '07) they only kept inactive accounts around for 3 months. So I am sorta like "WTF? Is this real?" It would save me a few hours of work. (Like I re-activated my PlayOnline thing, but it still says I can reactivate my character in FFXI too, unless I am understanding things wrong).
or,
2. Make a new character from scratch (maybe on a new servers). As much as I like the idea of Elven, I still would prefer being a Taru.
EoFF's FFXI community please help. Also, I am going on vacation soon, so I will only be starting in like a week and a half, enough time to decide. Or even change my mind about playing again.
?
Any help would be appreciated as well as tips. Since I am more or less a newb. I have little experience in the game AND it was two years ago when I last played. Honestly, FFXI has been the only MMORPG that ever caught my attention. Beyond RO, but that gets boring. FAST.
