    I like how they're rating Euros like second-rate customers. The €=$ policy was already bad enough, but now they're also making it $=€=£. There's no way to justify that. Not to mention our stores being shit and no servers on EU... I hope they're at least spending the money to build real EU servers, or this is just pure utter crap.

    The priority is always Asia>USA>>EU.

    This just another slippery step on the downward slope of integrity that was prefaced by the offer to hire a digital horse that only gave rudimentary aesthetic benefits for the length of your subscription at an additional £13.80.

    What's really suprising is that offline games have their prices right, even if the initial price is all you have to pay for it.
    Here, the price is obviously unfair, besides the fact that it's only a small benefit when compared to the monthly fee.

    i am in north america... but customer support and the treatment of their customer basis is disgusting ... having a large chunk of your player base forcer to pay almost 30% more then north american users is just dumb and bad service!!
    as well a digital download for standard edition should be cheaper then an actual physical copy of the same thing as there is no actual production costs. my pain goes out to the uk/aus/eu players I really hope that SE shakes their head and doesn't alienate a whole region of the world from this game.

    edit
    glad to see they modified the pricing to be more balanced ty SE for listening to your player base

    Reminds me of Apple's pricing where 1$=1€ on their AppleStore, back when 1.5$=1€, thus making EU getting robbed for no reason (taxes doesn't account for such a difference)

    Time to use a VPN/Proxy I guess if you wanna have decent pricing

    The Store's back up but surprise surprise Heavensward CE is nowhere to be found... all that "maintenance" for nothing, anything else to add to the mountain of crap SE?

    Guess that's that, no CE physical for the UK unless you want to take out a mortgage https://twitter.com/square_enix_eu/s...27205503430656

    What makes no sense is that the other editions of the expansion actually are converted somewhat. The standard and digital editions do not have a 1:1 conversion on the pricing so to have it on JUST the collector's edition only serves to highlight how outrageous it is. I still think it's an error based on that observation, and the twitter post confirming the price was just from a CS rep who looked in their database and saw the same incorrect price. At least... I'm hoping anyway. :/

    Just don't buy the physical collector's edition. Then they will learn their lesson.Simple.

    Using other Physical CE prices based off other stores...

    15,984.00 JPY = 89.3619 GBP
    Japanese Yen ↔ British Pound
    1 JPY = 0.00559071 GBP 1 GBP = 178.868 JPY
    --
    129.99 USD = 88.0954 GBP
    US Dollar ↔ British Pound
    1 USD = 0.677709 GBP 1 GBP = 1.47556 USD
    --
    129.99 EUR = 93.6470 GBP
    Euro ↔ British Pound
    1 EUR = 0.720417 GBP 1 GBP = 1.38808 EUR

    But the UK are being asked to pay £129.99...

    129.99 GBP = 23,258.16 JPY
    129.99 GBP = 191.893 USD
    129.99 GBP = 180.437 EUR

    Ripoff?
