Mark Kearns reviews FF14 vs current MMO development mentality

Uhh, the forums use the same account as your game.

I can promise you for me atleast this is not the case. There is one login in that uses this thing and another that uses my e-mail. There are also like 2 other options for things that I am not even sure if I ever created. When I went to actually go buy Endwalker I had to login and took me 10+ minutes to figure out what to use to correctly get into my account that was the place to apply the code.

As someone who did use the Blizzard launcher to buy BFA it was very simple and applied the code to your account with a simple drop down. There was not a separate e-mail where I had to go back to the site with that code and put it in a different place.

The Square Enix devs obviously have Blizzard accounts and are not blind so they clearly see the difference in how the sites are set-up. What is HILARIOUS is the entire Blizzard launcher that people love was actually stolen design from Trion who made Rift lol. I honestly do not think WoW players understand how much Rift influenced WoW right after Wrath of the Lich King.
