About the EU campaign for maid outfit and fat chocobo

I wonder if we'll get an actual response though: this is serious stuff yet we only had A response, and it was nothing more than a Clarification post.

Have they really responded in dept to any real problems in a timely manor? I would be surprised if this is vaguely addressed in the next live letter when ever that is. They have a very definite plan when it comes to issues that are bad. One community response in thread (if that) and then ignore. Hide behind the white knights who say its a Japanese company and they can't form a timely English response. Then wait till it goes away.

So far the only response was a clarification post from the community team http://forum.square-enix.com/ffxiv/t...=1#post3778581 which really doesn't help the situation, except for that fact it says about how other countries will have different campaigns.

The other response was a clarification of why the thread was put down, making it irrelevant to our discussion.

We're in dire need of urgent clarification at this point now that it has been revealed that there's real problems with availability. The first issue is completely sold out and not every physical copy came with a code...

I love the game but I'm very disappointed with how this has been handled. I played WoW for many years before FFXIV and Blizzard, too, often treated UK and EU players very poorly compared to their American players. In FFXIV it genuinely feels like UK - and EU - players are valued less than American and Japanese players. Which may not be true, of course, and I'm hoping it isn't...but we need information. Will the offer be adjusted? Will other EU offers be more easily accessible for UK players? I really just wanted to throw money at something and get the codes to be used quickly - much like Japanese and American players were able to.
