Please let those that already own FFXIV 1.0 purchase preorder privileges

The biggest problem with this is that it's NOT about paying the $30 to get the items, it's being forced to buy an entirely new copy of the game that would be wasted to get them.

To which was why I asked, if Square Enix had decided to offer these items as a stand alone package for $29.99 would we really be seeing anyone argue over this?

And while I'm sure we'd see threads instead titled along the lines saying "Vanity items cost too much!" and player's have the right to express that on the forums, that is what the company has chosen to do, much to how they have decided to include these items as a pre-order privilege and not allowed the ability to upgrade a 'pre-order' status. (Because lets face, it you'd be buying the items at that point- not a 'pre-order' status.)

While you have every right to argue or give an opinion why it shouldn't have happened. It did, and that was the companies choice to do so. As Hiir posted a few pages back;

Well, they've already made the decision and people have already started preordering copies of the game. How are they supposed to change it now without facing further backlash?

The companies decision was to include the items in a pre-order privilege. If they were to change it at this point they would have to re-give a chance to all those who have already bought the game simply for the items; much as they are in turn giving the chance to those who would not have bought the game again just for the in game items.

So whether it happens at this point is really irrelevant, I'm just posting valid points why the company will not do this at this point. To why I say this thread is beating the dead horse.

Lol. But as always everyone has entitlement to an opinion on these forums no?
