    Playing on Playstation 4 Question

    Hello. Both my wife and I play on PC. We each have our own PC, our own SE account, and our own copy of FFXIV. We also own a PS4 that I bought a copy of ARR for. I logged in under my own PSN account, messed around, then logged out. A month later my wife logged in under her own PSN account, did some fishing, used remote play, and hasn't done much else on there. We mostly play on our PC's. Just got our CE copy of Heavensward for PS4, went to put it in and now it states that only she is registered on the PS4. What is going on? Did they change something? I understand needed two codes for 2 different SE accounts with 2 PC's, but asking people to buy two copies of a game for the PS4 is beyond retarded. Every other game for PS4, Wii U, Xbox One, or any previous console, we could both enjoy separately with one copy of the game. This is a HUGE oversight by SE if it's the case as the majority of console owners, don't buy a copy of EACH game for EACH player when playing on the SAME console.

    You have to buy a copy for each account for the PS4

    Wasn't like that originally as we both were able to log in. But if that's the case, that's the most retarded thing Square could do. Then again, they locked your POL account to an XBL tag which was also stupid. The PS2 was able to log in anyone in that game though. Wonder why they started off smart and then went stupid.

    You'd have to buy a new service account off PSN, instead of buying the game again.

    You need to buy two copies plain and simple. I'm picking up two copies tomorrow, one for me and the other for my wife. We both play on PS4, We both have separate Square Enix accounts. Can't buy one copy and use one code twice, so you will need to buy another. Assuming you both play on the same PS4, but each of you have separate PSN accounts as well.

    That's what my BF and I did.
