Even a younger age, should I have genuinely wanted to join the server, I could have saved the minimal fee money to do so somehow. And just by seeing what was going on with Balmung, all the characters, groups, and events, I would have known it was well worth the fee to transfer in. I just don't see a pay wall of that small an amount as an excuse why someone couldn't join, and if you are truly in straights that dire, I would question your ability to afford the sub period, and that you should have stabilized your income in-general before playing an MMO with a sub instead of a standalone game.
I just have to reply to this because I'm sick of seeing people make this argument. This is an extremely privileged opinion. I've known people who budgeted very, very carefully to be able to afford their monthly sub, and even then, sometimes they had to let it lapse for a month or two when an unexpected expense came up. Eighteen dollars might not seem like much to you, but for some people, it can be the difference between solvency and overdrawing their bank account.Â
Also, making judgments about what kinds of games other people should invest in given their financial situation is presumptuous. If someone enjoys playing FFXIV enough to make room for it in a very tight budget, good for them. They deserve nice things too.
