Am I missing something?

So both my wife and I play. She plays on the ps3 and I play on the computer. We tried to swap that the other day and noticed that it doesn't work. Am I missing something or is your log in platform specific to the type of platform you registered your account on? Not a huge deal if it is platform specific but it would have been nice to be able to swap sometimes.

Yeah, it seems you have to buy a copy of whatever one you want your character on. So if you start on pc, and you want to play ps4, you have to then buy ps4 copy.

It's specific to the type you purchased. So, if you bought PC, you can play on PC, but you'll need to purchase the PS3 version as well if you wish to be able to play on BOTH.

Also, note that each Square Enix account can only be linked with ONE PlayStation Network account. Therefore, you'll need to make a different account on the PS3 if you wish to also register your game/account.

You each need a license for the platform you are going to play unless you both are playing on same account but different characters. Sounds to me like you each have an account registered. One is ps3 and other is PC? Basically you bought 2 copies of the game and one was ps3 and other was pc? If so you need to buy ps3 copy and she needs to have pc copy. Both of those need to be registered to your accounts. So in the end you will have ps3 and pc copy on yours and she will have pc and ps3 copy on hers. 4 License keys in all. That is how I read it.

That's actually the exact deal.

The only way you could swap is if you have bought and registered your own copies of both platforms.
