Aww... I kind of liked typing in hundreds of characters to play FFXI. It was like prepping for the grind!

If you've bought a compilation pack of FFXI recently, you know how much of a pain it can be to register. You need to type in a code for each individual expansion. Fortunately, PlayOnline has seen the error of their ways and have announced that starting with the next release. all expansion credits will be folded into a single code!

All of the Vana'diel Collections up until now have included separate registration codes for PlayOnline, FINAL FANTASY XI, and each expansion pack, but Vana'diel Collection 2008 will include a single registration code integrating PlayOnline and all FINAL FANTASY XI contents into one code.
Players will only have to enter the registration code once, making expansion pack registration code entry unnecessary.

For more info, you can check out the announcement at the official site.
