Hello, I'm planning to buy FFXI soon but due to the FFXI site being completely awful at answering Q&A's I have come here for assisstance.

First: Can someone please tell me/direct me to infomation regarding payment method and the cost per month (12.95 but is that in USD? I'm in Australia)

Second: Anything I should/need to know before I buy the game?

Third: OMG C4n I b3 clOud!? H3 iz z00 b4d @44 3934802975!!!1ONE (Obviously a joke)
