FINAL FANTASY XI ULTIMATE COLLECTION Now Available on Steam! (11/19/2009)

Quick, how can we still draw people to that game we released seven years ago, without actually changing a single thing about the game? Steam, of course!

Making it more available is a valid marketing tactic. What if your local game store doesn't carry seven year old games anymore?

I would just like to state, in case anybody has a similarly tough time and freaks out or something, that the download from steam took me literally three days. I had a variety of random problems, such as disconnects while afk and a slow-ish internet connection at peak hours, but yeah.

Three days.

Too advanced.

That three days thing sounds like it might be your connection. Everything I've downloaded off steam has capped out my 20mbit connection.

Friend of someone on the LS got it from steam last night in less then 3 hours.
That is including steam DL + FFXI Updates.

can you buy this from Steam if you already have the expansions and one add-on, and then just use the reg code for the other two add-ons?

If you really want it for $11, you could paypal someone the money and have them gift it to you. Though the codes would not work on an EU account.

am looking at this for the 3 add-ons ... does it work ?

You only get one code so some of it is "wasted" if applied to an exsisting account, but yes it'll enable all expansions/addons for the account you apply it to.

[Ahkow]

yea ... thanks ... i am so getting it though ... 9.99 per add-on vs 11 for everything

[Missnasty]

The collection seems to be on sale at the moment for $11. b_b

Quick FYI, save your macros first before installing this, as I am having to re-write all of mine over again cuz it basically acts as a new install, so there will be hours of updates to download.
