Promos not getting to Europe?

[Parisstilton]

We've had THREE promotions for last year's gear. First was Gamesmaster, which was a pain, then O2 gave the stuff away free on O2 Priority (minus the Butler/Maid set & mount). The Butler & Maid set, along with the White Chocobo are being made available via O2 Priority again free soon, along with a few other promotions like prizes. We've been far more lucky than most of Europe, especially as we can get the gear & mounts for free whereas others worldwide had to pay. Sadly I paid for the Gamesmaster deal so can't get the mounts free for myself.

Another crappy way of doing it though. I mean if you don't have an O2 contact you can't get it :/ Also I wish they would actually advertise these things better as I didn't even know until I read it here just now that there had even been a gamemaster promo

Anyone who owns a mobile can request a free SIM for O2 that gives access to O2 Priority. I don't have an O2 service, but without paying a penny got access to the promotions.

Wait what? When I looked into it they (O2) said priority was contract only?

O2 is for anyone who has an O2 number. I haven't even put a penny on the SIM, all that is needed is to activate it. I think I needed to put it in a phone & switch it on. They normally even have large adverts on their site offering the free SIM with access to Priority.

Square Enix is notorious for being awful at organising events outside of JP. I mean NA gets some stuff, but it seems like in general SE just has a really bad understanding of how to engage with diverse communities.

Like Australians are still paying their subs in EUROS with no option of picking something else, like USD. It's a complete joke but I doubt it'll ever change. Their company is pretty inept lol.

So you have to already be an O2 customer or pay a fortune to become one then like I said :/

Yea, zero promos here in Italy.

Thanks for the tip, I have registered for a free SIM as a test in case the monkey king stuff ends up on Priority. If I get the butler/maid set in the meantime I guess I will have a spare :V

Wow! What's the logic behind that?

That's not the worst of it.

Aussies are forced onto the EU store, forced to pay in Euros, AND the only items SE offers us is "digital" products. No physical games, no limited editions in physical form, no soundtracks, no plush toys, nothing!
