FFXIV Game of the Year Edition

I'm just glad it includes ALL UPDATES like that photo says.

Would kinda suck to have to play 2.0 while everyone was playing 2.4.

Going off the total lack of information a week out, and it not being listed on Amazon UK, I have a feeling that something happened between IGN's new post (who are the only people to talk about it other than the XIV facebook page) and now that have caused it to be canceled/delayed.

There were other articles about it on Destructoid and Joystiq around the same time the IGN was published, but other than that youre right there has been a MAJOR lack of info for this.

Additionally, you can currently get the CE off of Steam for $23.

That is not the physical CE, just digital. This is the one I was talking about, the only other boxed copy in existence that is no longer available.

Sorry, you were just asking about the mount/barding codes, which you get from the digital as well.

Amazon has PS4/PS3 physical collectors editions:

Those are for console though, which I do not have. I wouldn't be able to use the PC code either as I obviously already have an account, but it's also nice for reinstalling since it would be off a disc. There are no PC copies available :P They honestly need to take a page from Blizzard and just make standard edition box copies for those of us that like to have tangible things.

Not sure what you mean since you get all current content updates for free even without buying CE or GoTY. You will be playing 2.4 just like everyone else even if did not buy the GoTY.

Hahaha, I was just kidding. The photo says "Includes all updates," which likely refers to the updates to the CE package (the addition of the Fat Chocobo mount and the Wind-up Moogle minion). However, since the term 'update' is most commonly used to refer to game versions, it sounds like they are using the normal, everyday updates they make to the game to continue and improve it as a selling point, which was the origin of my joke.

However, if they ARE using that as a selling point, as in this edition comes 2.4 ready, then neat! If not, and they're using the normal, every day updates they make to the game to continue and improve it as a selling point....

Woe.
