Hey All,

I am hoping someone has some experience with my situation and can provide some input. Earlier this week some friends of mine convinced me to buy FFXIV and play with them. The features of the game sounded pretty cool. The next day I purchased the game through Steam, patched up and was ready to go. I got through character creation and was ready to select world Exodus only to find out it is full. After some searching it looks like there is no way for me to get onto Exodus. Argh.

The main reason for buying this game was to play with my friends but that cannot happen. I figured my next step was to get a refund on the game. Steam EULA states it gives no refunds. In this case it doesnt seem like Steam should be the ones refunding my money. I contacted Square Enix support but they are telling me I cant get a refund and that I need to go through Steam. They also cannot assist on getting my character onto Exodus.

Any idea what my options are? It seems no one is willing to refund my money. I dont plan on playing the game. I am feeling a bit ripped-off. I suppose I can just hold on to the game for 6 months or so and see if the server has room then. Any other ideas?

Thanks all!
