question about 1.0 and 2.0 character modelsFollow

Who knows, maybe? You'd want to recreate your character exactly, though? FFXI had some very generic character creation options now that I look back. FFXIV lets you do way more, from eye features to tattoos, to different colored hair.

I dont mind generic Im not creative enough to try to spend 4 housr just making my character look great.. thats hwy Im not one of thos eppl who whine about lack of character creation in RPGs.. Im fine with defaults

The Final Fantasy XIV character creation has many of the exact same hair styles as FFXI. The one you're asking for is one of them, meaning that, yes, you are able to make your exact FFXI character in FFXIV. :)

I recall there being an option in FFXIV for a similarly snide and somewhat sneaky-looking face, yes. ;)

because i meant to say did as opposed to didnt?

by the time i myself have noticed the problem, someone else (as in this case) has already pointed it out for me thus editing at that point would be useless lol

In version 2.0 all character models will be replaced by stick figures.

Well were the shoe on the other foot. Id have read all the posts in the topic... or at least the first post (why go into a topic if youre not gonna at least read the first one). Follow by the last few posts (as opposed to just the last post(s) like most do) so I could see where everyone was at in the topic.

Then I woulda have spotted the inconsistency and said something like "Ok youre first post implies you played FFXI but your last one says you didnt, make up your mind it cant be both, one or the other. Pick one."

At that point I would have been corrected (as opposed to just reading one post and jumping to a conclusion, despite the apparent lack of sense it makes.) and that would be that.

There now you have some insight as to how I think and operate.

lol i wasnt jumping down his throat... believe me if that were my intent I can do a MUCH better job heh

I really should know better than to open threads by DM by now.

As "generic" as XI was I probably killed my Main a half dozen times before I settled with what was considered the main stream mithra look. I won't be surprised if I spend half a day just worrying what I look like before I even actually play the darn game.

This thread is making my head hurt.

Anyway, I know when the playstation 2 version of ffxi launched in NA; my girlfriend and I picked our character models and character names in advance well before we picked the game up.

For me, I've played this character for 8 years--time for a change.

Elvaan male, red hair, young face.

I don't even really care for 'Elvaans' in ffxiv so far design wise from what i've seen but I won't discount them completely. Hume, taru, male mithra all look awesome this time around whereas in ffxi I didn't care for the hume male models that much.

So yeah.. with so much customization and so many choices this time around--I won't miss ffxi's old character models that much and if i get that sentimental i'll either log onto ffxi or check them out on google/ffxicyclopedia or a dozen other sites.
