I'm willing to bet they've learned from this horrid mistake, and from the combination of FFXI as a learning tool, this mistake, and the feedback from all of us.
I will trust SE one more again, they've made a few mistakes recently, but they did back in the 90's too and they managed to recover from those, hell even FFXIII-2 was a substantial improvement, I wasn't pissed when I pre-ordered it w/ the hardcover guide, I trust this will manage to make the pre-ordered CE worth more than just the little leatherbound journal and the security key that I already had one of from XI.
