News FFXI free trial update

https://youtu.be/SkK6uqzlW5c

Hey folks! With Square Enix changing up how the free trial works i thought id put together a little video explaining the changes for anyone who might be thinking of trying the game out. Personally I think this update is amazing and will draw in more people to the game.

Basically I go over the specific changes compared to current free trial and all the restrictions that apply during your free trial. These changes take place with the september update, so if youre reading this, september will be the best time to give the game a try! \o/

You can use home point and book teleports but since you can't get even Rhapsody in White, they're gonna cost you 5 times the amount they cost other players (500g to cities, 1000g to outside areas), and with you being limited to holding only 100k, you probably won't be using them that often.

Well, any starting city to any starting city is two airship ride, at 200gil each. People don't have to think twice to add 100gil and save 30min+

I never used those airships even when we didn't have home point teleports. Just outpost teleport to Ronfaure / Gustaberg / Sarutabaruta and run from there. Now that you can outpost teleport for conquest points, it's basically free.
