Read some where that the mac requires a bundle, which wouldn't surprise me. Oh well though! I can't say I've heard of any other game requiring you to buy both Windows and Mac versions lol It says a lot >.>

The bundle is for AAR+Heavensward as someone mentioned before. Even if you already own the PC version, you'd still have to purchase the Mac version. Same way someone who wants to play both on PC and console they need to buy both versions even though they will be tied to the same account.
Link to where you can purchase the Mac version: https://store.na.square-enix.com/pro...-os-x-download
With the purchased game you also get one month service, so isn't that you are wasting anything, the only thing is that the added month will not counts towards veteran rewards.
But dunno if you purchase (again) the game, the month is added to your existing game time or it is only for first time activation...
The thing that bothers me most about all of this is:
Not only is there absolutely no mention on this all-in-one bundle about early access, everything states that we can't even download the client until launch day. My Windows FFXIV folder is 14.5 GB's without Heavensward, and I can't even download it early? So, no early download, no collector's edition, and no early access all while paying to buy it all over again at full price...You will be able to redeem your pre-order codes at the official launch of the game after you have created your Square Enix account and registered your full game code.
They've confirmed it's Cider. Or at least, they've confirmed the Mac client is done in cooperation with a 3rd party called Transgaming. And Transgaming is best known for Cider, so it's fairly safe to assume the Mac client will be a Cider port.
