      If you have a static group of competant players and resources to get any appropriate gear, 1-45 is really only like 60 hours of playing in reality.

          Considering its been out for 6 days, thats 10 hours a day. You're telling this to someone who usually plays for maybe 3 hours a night. Sometimes 4 or 5. Occasionally along day on the weekends. 10 hours a day for a week seems aboslutely outrageous to me. I would never get anything done if I did this. I work for nearly 9 hours a day, plus 10 ffxi...that would leave me with less than 5 hours of sleep a night. Just seems crazy to me that someone would put that much time into a game for such an extended stretch. Oh well, to each their own I suppose.

          EDIT: In regards to ninja's post:
          And in less than a week, people have lvl'd more than I have in over two years. Man I feel small right about now.

              If I may go back to the original question, I've been wondering the same thing as I gear up to return to my PC version, which is pre-CoP. I'll be coming back at lvl 30; when do you think I should bother to get the expansion packs? Basically, when will I start being hassled because I can't go to a CoP or ToAU region? I'd love to try out BLU and COR, but I'm in no rush.

                By lvl 40 you can do the Phomiuna Aqueducts and get a jse from that area that is a lvl 50 armor. Depending on the job, it can be really nice. Before that, at lvl 30 you can do the first three promyvions. They can be a challenge and start the CoP storyline for you. Granted, nothing is really necessary, but you can get to see bits and pieces starting at where you're at now.

                  You might get hassled if you can't go to a CoP region after level 50. I've seen some people exp in Uleguerand Range somewhere in the low-mid 50s. But not many do... Lack of CoP might become a larger problem after level 60 though, where people level in Bibiki fairly often (read as: entirely too much), which is a CoP zone.

                  You probably won't get hassled much for not having the newest expansion though, at least not until the 60's (the lowest anybody could exp in any of these new zones). I don't think people will hassle you for BLU, PUP, or COR subjobs.
                  Generic Info!

                    Haha, I doubt I'd get hassled for not having a RNG/PUP. Thanks for the info. I'm sure it will take me a while to get to the 50s, so I'll buy the expansions at my own pace.

                      Actually I'd recommend getting the vanadiel collection if you have a DVD-rom. It has FFXI, RoZ, and CoP for like 30 bucks. Save you money, plus you get all the updates pre-last summer.

                        Re: When will I enjoy the expansions?

                        Well I just noticed that they dropped the price of the Collection to $20, making it the same cost as CoP at amazon. I don't have a DVD drive for my PC, and although I could probably work around it, I might as well just invest in one by now. I shouldn't have any problem reactivating my old Content ID with a new copy of FFXI, right?

                          No, you shouldn't. Should work the same as people who use all three platforms.

                            You'll want to get a DVD drive anyway...most new games come as at least an optional DVD version.

                            Also, not only is the Vana'diel collection DVD, but so is ToAU.
