Quick question

[Shotero]

I bought Final fantasy xiv off steam but used the steam key code for the square enix website download, so should i buy heavensward off the square enix website or steam?

It doesn't matter where you bought the first code or any code there after. All codes get applied to your Square Enix account. I personal think it's just easier to buy directly from SE because they are the source. Some people buy the physical package so they will go to gamestop or other locations.

The only think to keep in mind is what region is the code for and what verison your using. I actually have access to all platforms on my single account and can log in on anything that runs the game.

Sorry, but the above is partly incorrect, it matters very much where you get the expansion from in relation to Steam.

You activated with a code that you got from Steam so you need to also buy the expansion from Steam (when it becomes available). The code determines whether your account is Steam or non-Steam and therefore which Windows version of the expansion you need to get.

It doesn't matter if you download/play through Steam or direct from SE's download launcher as they're exactly the same client/install. The game even patches directly with SE, not through Steam.

What the previous poster wrote about region is true though, you must make sure you get the expansion from the same region as your main game or it won't activate on your account (NA, EU or JP)

Alright thank you very much both of you.
