Hi, thanks for answering. However you're talking about the PS3 version only right?

What I meant to ask was: If my friend purchased the PS3 version and made an account and character, if he later on wanted to use that character on PC instead, will he then need to purchase the PC version of the game or will he be given the option of downloading it for free online?

I know Yoshi-P said that a PC player will need to also purchase the PS3 version if they want to use their account on that system, but I'm unsure if this is the case the other way around.

I assume you'd have to buy the game for each platform you plan to play it on. And of course link the two codes to the same SE/XIV service account. I don't think they'd get PC version for free if they want to later play on PC.

What I thought, thanks JillyBean! ^^

Is the physical PC Collector's Edition only available on the SE Store?

Depends. For NA, it seems that way. For EU, physical CE is oddly only available in SE's French store. (You have to order from other retailers to get it in other EU countries. FWIW GAME UK seem to not be offering pre-order bonuses, again. :mad:)

So what now since PS4 release is confirmed? I should just wait for the PS4 version since I look foward in buying a PS4 in the first place?

I'm a 1.0, reserved my copy at a gamestore, but now for a couple of months, I could play it on a better system, probably better than my current PC lol.

So I guess I'll just play it off on pc until ps4...right?

I went through all the answers, but I didn't see ones that might have answered my questions.

1. What's the status of obtaining the Hermes Shoes again? My first character I made in 1.0 received the shoes because I linked my FFXI account before I created it. However, I no longer play that character and I no longer play XI, so the next(and main)character I created does not have Hermes Shoes. Will all my characters receive the Hermes Shoes if I'm no longer subscribed to FFXI if at least one character has it?
   
2. I'm currently a 1.0 Collector's Edition Legacy member. The only in-game items I want now are the pre-order bonuses. I'll be pre-ordering the Collector's Edition for the physical items as well BUT: If I already have a SE account with characters, and I input the code for the pre-order items, will I receive them in my in-game mailbox?

Correct me if I'm wrong, but Amazon has yet to add the PC CE version, do they not? At first I feared they might be sold out, but how can they, when pre-orders has barely begun... :p

Yeah but that doesn't include all the physical goodies.
