Greetings, all!

I briefly took this thread down to clean up some of the comments within it. While I am certainly not requiring a positive or negative response to this thread or promotion, the tone itself should remain civil. The use of inappropriate or insulting language is a violation of the rules of the forum, which can result in actions taken against those particular users, or the permanent removal of the thread if this continued unabated. Please keep this in mind when expressing your opinions, since the use of language of that type does not strengthen your opinion. It's only purpose would be to remove it from the thread due to a violation of the rules.

Thank you for taking the time to respond to this thread, and keep in mind tone and language moving forward with this discussion.

Nice to have it back. You had us scared there for a second :P

Not to mention they specifically admit they don't have plans to cover Europe as a whole, even after this whole debacle.

Just wanted to chime in again that the EU isnt the only part of the world with EU accounts either. At least in Africa we use PAL version of games and thus fall in the same category and I'd imagine it would be the same in the Middle-East and previous soviet states. None of those regions are even mentioned by SE and yet we get the same version of the game as all other EU players.

I personally hope the other EU regions would have a promo with digital distributors like Steam, GOG or greenmangaming because there is no way in hell they can cover the rest of the world if they want to force us to buy and import physical goods.

It's insulting to be brutally honest and just shows that they never really gave a crap about how it would actually work when they announced it the first time.

For a moment, I thought it was some politically correct agenda of SE to save face, but I'm relieved to see that it was just a temporary removal just to clean things up.

That said, this is a very heated topic at the moment so we'll try to keep things civilized.

Hi

for me this really Strange why we have to pay more than 30 Dollar and wait for 3 month while other get it in less than 1 week with less money
at least more time less money Or more money less time D:
let us at least pay for Digital Ver and we get the code after we download it
it's way less than the bother to fight to get it the magazin to my house i live out of Europ i never buy anything fro EU normally US
Just why make it really hard to get

Some people tend to take the "triggered" approach and have the need to add insults when their points are somewhat invalid and more so, tend to forget that despite JP, EU or NA servers aside, we are all a community. I'm sick and tired of seeing replies of the "Too bad, so sad" or "well crying about it isn't going to help you" variety from one group.

Keep in mind guys, we were ALL fussing about this before we even had a promotion. Since half of North America got the opportunity to score the Amazon promotion, the mindset now I am seeing is "Ha-Ha losers!"

We were ALL in the same boat. EU's still in that boat. We shouldn't be pointing, laughing and telling them to basically suck it up.

Square-Enix - throw them a frickin' bone here..

I'm happy the thread exists again, I'm hoping that we do at least reach people at SE about this issue. At least so that we don't get these kinds of promotion deals again. I'm happier with Cash Shop/Digital Codes. It is likely too late for them to redo any kind of deal with the magazine now, unless they pay out of their pocket for it.

Ty for deleting my post, I kept it civil for my standards, but spanish people like me have blood in our veins instead of soy milk, so sorry not sorry if making a point involves some energy.

So keeping it civil, my opinion on this "promotion" (I would call it april fools idea) is:
1. It comes late.
2. Badly implemented.
3. Not even for all EU regions.
4. Lacked all the required info (that a rep had to reply here because people complained).
5. More costly than other promotion campaigns.
6. Feels more like a robbery than a promotion.
7. We gota wait 3 months whereas other regions had the items almost immediatly.

Tbh I would prefer not getting anything that this "promotion" (I cant call it what I think it is, but everyone have the word in their minds).

And same concern I expressed on my deleted post, I do not understand how the chain of command in SE EU decided to give the ok to this promotion.

Short and to the point. Good job.

I just tried to create a thread asking why threads were being censored, and it was deleted immediately. I'm now inclined to believe that SE is working on the issue.

I'm not sure how exactly the JP promo went except that you had to buy stuff to get the points. So assuming a drink cost $1 (working $ since don't know yen) and you get 1 point for every drink you bought they be spending quite a bit more money then the EU promo if they wanted all the items. Now I'm not sure if this is exactly how it was but that what I'm getting from looking through the JP promo stuff.
