I'll probably make one-off payments to keep up to date on how things are after patches that are of interest to me (eg. 1.21, when jobs kick in). I won't do too much fighting, but will test it all out and level up some things. I do want to have very high level crafter/gatherer classes by the time it gets to 2.0, though, on the basis that I'll be able to help you guys out a lot that way if you do come back / start up. Also, I dunno, I just like the game for some reason despite the flaws. Just wish there were more people I knew online at times I play so I could hang with them.

The upcoming patch isn't of huge interest to me. Dye stuff, auction house, player search... all fixes, which is great, but not really new content. There's the moogle fight but I'm not ready for that kind of thing yet, I'm a mere L32 Gladiator. But maybe someday. As for the other things, I'll pay if there is something of major interest to me over the next year and see how it all flows.
