Hi hi. I'm a newbie PS4 and FFXIV player.
I'm quite confused with PS4/PSN region thingy so please bear with me.

So, I bought FFXIV Complete Pack from Amazon JP. I got it few days ago and noticed that behind the case, it's R2 (the one with the little globe and number is the region, right?). Ain't Japan R3? I saw a few website listed Japan under R3. Is this gonna affect anything?

I'm aware that I need JP Square Enix account if I'm gonna play the JP FFXIV. But can I play JP FFXIV + JP SE account + MY PSN account? Or do I need to use JP PSN account?

I still haven't start playing but I would like to ask how do I make payment for the subscription.

You only able to play FFXIV only on 3 region of PSN. US, EU (any) and JP
Since you have bought JP version you only can play it on JP PSN (the product code inside the box only redeemable on PSN JP).

complete pack comes with 30 day free sub so for the first 30 days u wont have any issue with it until u decided to pay the sub. As im aware u will need to use japanese credit card (which is not an option) or timecard from japan

It's easier to just refund it and get one that is more common for people in our country to help with. Otherwise, you'll be a very rare case that not a lot of people can help with.

Okay thanks for the info. Do you know any online shop that sells japan timecard, by any chance?

Too bad I take off the plastic d. Well, maybe I shall just save money again to buy the EU version. I shall see. Thank you.

since u said u bought from amazon jp, amazon jp do sell the timecard too. well there r place like playasia tht sell them too but wit higher price
