Didn't the Heavensward physical CE have...pretty much the same stuff in it? And was only like 130$, not 200$? I have the HW CE, and all the items in it pretty much seem the same, except the poster map thing. I don't remember the exact price of it, but I know it was nowhere close to 200$.

What about the physical copy and Steam? I remember the drama with Heavensward and people saying they couldn't play with the physical copy of HW on Steam and stuff.

Does that mean I can't play with my account/character if I buy the game from Square Enix store? (Buying ARR, HW & SB)

If you bought the game on steam and that's what you're using, that is your pc account (forever with steam). Even if you were to purchase all 3 as non-steam versions it would be creating an entirely new account.

I have the PC and PS4 copies of ARR and HW on PS4. I can still play FFXIV on PC and all my collector's edition items (including HW) are still with me if I play on PC. I haven't tried entering HW areas using my PC yet, so I don't know if that will work or not. But the bonus items are account linked, and if you have two or more different platform licenses on your account, all that stuff is still available regardless.

It may be that I would need to buy a copy of HW for PC as well in order to enter HW via PC. I am not sure though. It seems rather stupid to handle things that way since I have already licensed the basic game on PS4 and PC, as well as purchasing HW (for PS4) and continuing my sub. But then, licensing is frequently handled in a very stupid manner by game developers.

Have they announced how Digital will be distributed / pre-orded yet? Had way too many issues with Heavensward Phys. via SE Store to go through them again. :/

this is comming from Square Enix store.. maybe there is a discrepancy, but i Think Amazon and retail stores would still sell the physical copy, but include the digital extras,

all in all, this time i will get the extra digital items for the 60 bucks, its a good investment, a lot of extra content for 20 extra bucks, (since S.E. likes to charge 30 bucks on mounts alone from the Mogstation)

still would love to get a physical copy, to get the disk and cover

I thought the Collector's Editions were supposed to be expensive. Ya know, to give value to the collector and stuff.
