(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!

Gotta buy the whole game again because SE *** up the first time around?

Pass.

Also, TESO is coming out, and if I'm going to pay a monthly fee for a vow of abstinence, I might as well do it in Tamriel.

If you have the original pc version,its a free download for the ARR pc client

I guess no one actually read the article where it clearly says that

Someone clearly didn't read.

You only have to buy it again if you want the Collectors Edition or the PS3 version.

Oh, cool.

I still have the original FFXIV and believe it or not, I didn't hate completely. Music and environments were pretty amazing to be honest, but my PC would cap the processor like 20minutes with the game running (Even on something benign like the title screen) and eventually start running single-digit FPS.

Still, I think I'll banner up in TESO, despite that games terrible character models. As a huge Elder Scrolls fan there have been places I've wanted to see in a visually fulfilling way, that haven't been explored in a primary game yet. Namely Morrowind's mainland areas (Ebonhart, Narsis, Necrom, Blacklight, Tear) and Winterhold before it got buttfucked into the ocean.

I'm looking forward to giving 2.0 another shot.

Sadly I messed up my legacy ***and canceled right on the cusp of getting it.

The article mentions that people who pre-order will get to play earlier than the rest. Is this for people who own the original version as well?

No idea about the early part,but its probably like the original XIV special edition. You got something like 10 days access early.

"There'll probably be a big update on the day the game goes live to add more content."

I remember that being thrown around a lot in those 10 days.

I'll give it another shot, though. The beta has been fairly good so far.

I may try it since I bought the game a long time ago and quit after the free 30 day trial. It really better be a complete 180 turn around with some seriously renovated stuff to even bare a chance for me.

I even cancelled and wanted nothing to do with legacy... as if I wanted my name in the credits on that garbage.

TESO will likely grab me well before a resub of XIV would though. Can't wait for TESO :O

i for one really enjoyed 14. Hamlet was fun, questing was fun, solo levelig at a good pace hell even crafting was made bearable. I for one will move back to 14 once the game is available. XI is dead, boring, and tbh not even a challenge no more. At least in 14 i enjoyed roaming and exploring. Here meh. Here is hoping for an even sooner release lol.

Sounds like if you bought the original collector's edition onry. Doesnt mention legacy status anywhere.

If you're complaining about spending $24 dollars on a collector's edition of a game,you have it easy lol

Just above that is this:

The Collector's Edition digital upgrade offers customers the ability to upgrade their standard FFXIV account to Collector's Edition status via the “FFXIV Service Center” website that is scheduled to be opened at the launch of official service, which then grants the in-game bonus items included with the Collector's Edition.
So if you had the Regular Edition you can upgrade it to the Collector's Edition and receive the Collector's Edition digital content.
