Excellent. Finally this game can fail a second time, and SE can realize how stupid they've been. Can't wait!

It wouldn't be an ARR thread without petty negativity! Thanks Helel. You never fail to come through.

Sadly the time i spent in 1.0 for me was far more entertaining. Not saying FFXI is rubbish. Just since abyssea, FFXI lost its way and Seekers has helped derail it even further. If 2.0 is as fun as 1.0 was, i think ill hang up my boots on XI for good. I enjoyed XIV enough to stop playing XI during its 1.0 days. Yeah it had its faults but i learned to live with them. The main thing was, it was fun to play. This game has lost that fun factor. The fact that more and more people are quitting and leaving is evident of this :(. Watched a compilation video of CS's today. Made me realise that this game was so good. How did it end up like this?

Just out of curiosity, do old players from 1.0 keep their original characters?

I sure hope I get the cait sith pet and moogle hat if I bought the game at 1.0 release <_< I don't want to have to preorder a new copy just because I have a cosmetic item addiction!
Also didn't YoshiP say something about 1.0 Collector's transferring to 2.0 Collector's or am I making that up?

That collectors edition looks sweet, might buy it for the ps3, since i already have legacy pc account.
The only problem is if they give a universal code, instead of individual codes for the extras.

If it still had XP support I might consider jumping in again. All my friends are starting ::shudders:: families and ***now, and I need more people who dodge responsibility around. So it's either an MMO or move to Brisbane.

Owners of the 1.0 Collector's edition will receive the Helm of Light, Behemoth Barding, Baby Behemoth Minion (it's a purple pig that follows you everywhere) and the coeurl mount.
People who did not own the 1.0 collector's edition can upgrade digitally.
In addition to this, the rest of the details can be found here:

SE said: Customers that pre-order FFXIV: A Realm Reborn will receive a code that unlocks special pre-order bonuses!
Please note that these pre-order bonuses will be available in limited quantities

Not interested in the rl stuff, just in game behemoth pet because it's *** adorable!
I'll have to live without the moogle hat and cait sith, can't justify spending $30 for them ):

wait so i have the 1.0 collectors edition i get that stuff too? :O
(I made this topic already,but it ended up on the XIV section,so remaking for everyone to see,not just XIV site users)
Official from SE,via eurogamer.
http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2013-05-23-final-fantasy-14-a-realm-reborn-out-on-pc-and-ps3-this-august
Thats one sexy special edition. Even though I have the original special edition and have no plans to play it on ps3,I'm gonna buy that because it is pretty damn sexy.
Edit because people cant read: You DO NOT have to rebuy the game if you already own the 1.0 pc versions. The 2.0 ARR client will be a free download on pc for those people.
Edit 2: Providing links to the official SE pages,where you can also preorder it on there. Preorder link is at the bottom of the page.
EU: http://eu.finalfantasyxiv.com/en/product/ (special edition is not on the EU store atm,but link will take you there when it is)
NA: http://na.finalfantasyxiv.com/product/index.html (courtesy of Iraphine)
You will find the minimum and recommended spec on those pages,and if you're wondering how your own hardware will perform,have a go of the benchmark!
