I am worried that they are rushing this launch a lot. That release date was obviously set up that way because that new wow expansion releases at the same time. They are trying to slap it together and have it ready by then (and sice wow is only a pc game, that's probably why they are only bothering to release the pc version and not the ps3 version until much later.... something tells me the pc release is really just going to be "beta pt. 2"... this worries me. FFXI was plagued with bugs and errors and an unhelpful interface, SE needs this launch to be the best it can be.
Also. Really ticked that based on how its worded on the se site, the preorder bonuses are different depending on the version you purchase. Onion helm (reduces "weakened" time after KO) for collectors edition preorder, garlond goggles (increases rate of skill progression) if you get standard... wtf? Collector's edition gets the worse gift? What's up with that... I feel like they are trying to get us to buy both versions...? You can read all this on the us ffxiv site.
One thing I do like about these preorder goodies is that unlike ffxi gifts, once you register these items, they will be available to all new characters you make... unlike in ffxi where you had to pick only one character. I'm just pissed that by already paying them more for the CE we get screwed out of an item...
