We have to buy Heavensward twice? for different platforms?

[Edellis]

I have bought ffxiv for PC and ps4 and bought heavensward for PC but I must buy Heavensward for the ps4 also? I don't recall FFXI requiring this for expansions.

I can make a Aura on pc but not on ps4? I can play the Au Ra character on ps4 that I have created on the pc but I can't create one?

If you created an Au Ra on your account, i would like to think they wouldn't even allow you to play your account on a non-expanded client anyway.

But yes, you have to purchase each platform you play on. I assume they did this to eventually phase out the PS3 version, but they throw this in your face on all the websites and such.

It really goes without saying, if you dont have Heavensward on the platform you're playing on...you wouldn't be able to access those areas.
