Is the Physical CE a SE store exclusive?

Well it does come with a Fantasia potion, 10$ worth if you intend to change to an Au Ra there is that.

Ya but i can just get the Download CE version and get the fantasia so once again we paying 50$ more for the dragon. But i guess that ok for people who want to pay that much for it. If it had a token and more stuff but for 3 item is just not enough for the 50$ for me.

Does anyone have a clue how many pages the artbook with the CE will be? The pre Heavensward one is over 300 pages... The one shown in the unboxing video looks like it's barely even 30.

Just checked the art book that came with the 2.0 CE and it is 80 pages hardback. If I'd bought it separately I'd have expected it to be £10 at the extreme upper limit and more like £7.

Think I'm possibly just gonna wait then... I collect art books in some form or another.

US CE $130 = £87.95, UK CE £130 = $192.15 so paying £42.05 more... what is this shit?

From what i hear UK always pays more for most stuff so not sure why people going crazy.

I still shock for such a small dragon toy it would be 50$ more on the price tag?

Silly! The $50 charge isn't for the dragon toy! It's the OCD tax for players that simply MUST have the "perfect" version of the expansion. Seriously, for the CE they could have made it identical to the regular, but with a greasy black banana peel added with the word "SUCKER!" stamped on it (all this told to the customers in advance) and plenty of players would STILL line up for miles to pay extra for it.

And I'd probably be one of them.

They mentioned Gamestop and Best Buy in their post for physical stores yet I see both of them only have the standard edition. Maybe they will put the CE up tomorrow but they already put the SE in their sites and with the correct release date of 6/23. They should have a CE option but yea it isn't up. Check tomorrow maybe but I don't know if they will be getting it.

I wish SE would have a post of what physical stores they are shipping some of the CE too like they done in the past so I know where to look out for.

Just checked Gamestop this morning. They have no indication of CEs being sold by them.

Checked Walmart and BestBuy as well. No dice.

This is obnoxious. The question "Where can I pre-order this" should not be one I have to fight over.

I'm sorry I kept you waiting. The following applies to the EU: for the time being the boxed CE version will only be available on the Square Enix Store.

So... there's that. Now Australia/New Zealands will be sold where please?

edit: I accidentally posted this in the wrong thread but Ima let you keep it anyway :3
