Nothing in the game aggravated me more than to be out of the plumes on Ifrit and still get hit by them due to lag. I'm not even sure what I'll have to do in the game since i already have everything maxed out.

think this is a idiffreant engine they are using

I speak japanese and even run a japanese version windows. Auto-translate works fine when FFXIV is running in English. type stuff was used more than actual communication. Same 'JP ONLY' issues still pop up from FFXI though. 

I'll still need a solid Red Mage hat if they plan to keep me around long.

 

I envy u, languages are not my thing, 25 yrs of subtitled anime and I havnt learnt a word. ARR does have red mage hats, not sure if you are after a specific type. Red mages themselves arent in yet, they paused the insertion of XI classes till after ARR is out.

I found my security token today and found all this great news today, but the problem is i stopped playing it before server merge so now all my chars seems to not be active,

My question is if someone knows and is kind enough to share it, 

-will i be able to move the old character data into V2 ?¿.Keep in mind i dont have V1 i stoped playing before server merge around feb 2012.

-If i pay now the 30days fee will i be able to enter with my char the old version before it dies forever ?.

Im kinda undecided what i want to do atm.

Thanks in advance.

They are transfering all 1.0 characters into ARR.

There is no point in subbing for anything right now, 1.0 is dead (servers are up just for players that subbed till the end, to socialize for a few weeks, though there's no saving data)  and ARR isnt out yet. If you have your old account that will get you 30 free days of ARR, and you should get into beta no prob. Its a new client anyway, so the old is irrelevent.

The increase for 8 character slots as opposed to one is small enough to be tempting, but I thought the idea was that you only need one character, because it could pretty much do everything?  What are the advantages of multiple toons?

Only because people wanted :p  Most of the extra characters will be used as coffer / saler , some for roleplay.
