I tried playing some time ago, but I couldn't get past the interface,
and certainly had my share of problems creating the account. Also
didn't help that I couldn't find a friendly person ... or any
talkative person at all. All I saw were people running around here and
there, and when I asked if I could join a group over different
channels... got no response at all. But mainly, the interface killed
it for me.

Wow. Not the sort of thing one would expect to find in a "Delux" edition!

I'm sure their expectation is that this is being bought by established
users who just wanted the bonus content. Square/Enix certainly behaves as
if the entire world has already tried the game and knows how to play. If I
had to guess, I'd say their marketing people have declared the market
saturated and aren't trying to win any new users because there probably
won't be any. Maybe they're on to something.

-KKC, who doesn't hunt down cloth maps, trading cards or free T-shirts any
more. How will this can of Mountain Dew make me a better gamer, anyway?
