Amazon would have paid SE for this deal, since it was all about drawing people to Amazon's site. But they clearly weren't paying per code that they gave out. They blindly gave a code to everyone who happened to buy a video game during that period, most of whom would not have been FFXIV players and would have had no use for such codes. That suggests they paid SE a flat fee that didn't rely on how many codes were given out.

Still not a word from SE.
Not about the other events, when they might take place. Or even an apology for this mess.
I can't get the magazine here, and gods knows when the other events will take place? Next year? The outfit is getting more and more undesired by me every day.

Please, don't forget your fans.

I fear that we will only get infos after this campaign ended. Since the last dev post said something about months. Would be nice if we would just get all the information about all campaign so that we can decide which campaign would be the best, but I have no hope left that this will happen. The question is: To we really get one campaign at a time? Does this mean that even at the end of 2017 we may have regions left that still need theirs?

If you have experienced this issue, please contact gamesmaster@futurenet.com with the subject line ‘Missing FFXIV Codes’ for further assistance.

Yeah, this happened to me. Went from stoked at finding a copy to deflating when there were no codes - it shouldn't be a lucky dip. I contacted GamesMaster but all I've had from them so far is silence.

Running a promotion that feels more like a roulette isn't fun. You have to get lucky to find the magazine, then chance your luck again as to whether the prize is inside. Fail at any point and you come away with nothing (or a waste of £4.99). I'd rather spend that on Mogstation and get them for certain - without being stuck with a magazine I don't care for.

Something tells me that we won't know about other campaigns until October aprox. Bet they're waiting to finish this one completely before starting a new one :/ so sad...

Don't the codes expire in December? It's been like that for the 3 promos so far. Will we have enough time to get the codes if another promo starts in October?

At this point I have no faith for a campaign in the nordic countries after seeing the fail in UK.

And this is why the UK is getting so badly screwed since the rest of the EU region is also trying to get a hold of Games Master since its the only source for the EU codes for this campaign.

if the UK campaign is considered a failure its not due to lack of demard more lack of supply and SE picking a disturbution method that throttles the supply

I start to don't wanting the outfit and the white big chocobo of this compaign :/
But , i will pray for pple wanting it so bad :)
