PETITION: Regarding FINAL FANTASY XIV Steam Version (Mar. 8)

[Nixxe]

Users who bought the game on Steam willingly and then complain about having to use Steam launcher make no sense to me. :|

On the flip side, the people who literally had to buy the game a second time to play via Steam when they were Windows users got ripped off and that's not okay.

Personally, I have the Steam version, but not by choice. A friend of mine was one of the aforementioned people who was a Windows user and bought the game a second time to play via Steam. He then gifted me that Steam key to use on the MogStation. (I had no idea I was playing the "Steam Version" until Heavensward came out, when I bought the Windows version of HW and it didn't work.)

My REAL complaint here (and imo, what more people should be complaining about) is that now if I want to buy something from the MogStation I'm FORCED to do it via Steam Wallet. There are NO other payment options. I DO NOT WANT TO ADD MONEY TO STEAM ONLY FOR IT GO TO WASTE BECAUSE I CAN ONLY ADD PREDETERMINED AMOUNTS. GIVE ME MY CREDIT CARD PAYMENT OPTION BACK.

I've literally never used the Steam Wallet and I have the Steam version. In fact, I bought an optional item from the Mogstation just now.

That's bizarre because it's the only option given to me for some reason

And it wasn't before today.

Just now I literally bought something and the option for CC was there for me. It tried to get me to log into the steam wallet several times but after a few "cancel" and try again it got the message that I wanted to pay with CC. Have you paid with CC before in the mogstation? My account is ages old from right back at the start of ARR when the steam wallet literally didn't exist. Perhaps newer steam accounts just don't allow for the option at all.

Yep, literally did it last week. I'll try what you did and cancel and try again a few times and see if it changes anything.

Looking at your image I wonder if it has to do with the gift code. I just bought something for myself, not a gift for someone else.

I've tried both. Same situation. I've also tried what you said and canceled like 15 times and nothing changed. I guess I'll have to file a ticket or something. At least it's good to know it wasn't a decision they made with this change and it's just that my store seems to be bugged out? Who knows...

The only other thing I can think of is that it is restricted to certain countries. I'm in Australia and I buy through the EU store. It's possible the EU has laws to prevent single payment options.

For all we know the bug is on my end :S I refuse to pay with Steam Wallet. If that's the way the game is going I'll just stop buying mogstation items, if they stretch it to the sub I'll just stop playing since clearly SE won't want my money.
