This is shit and unacceptable.

It will mean 2 copies of the game, IF SOE allow a US account registration from a Euro address - and I am willing to they won't because the deal will be exclusive.

Further to that, I went through the Turbine/Codemasters issue on LOTRO and the service, forums and experience was abysmal. This will result in SOE not caring about euro subscribers and ProSieben investing fuck all in customer service as it makes them no money and they have no direct line to resolve major game issues.
It doesn't matter what promises are made now, it will not go that way.

Further to that, for outfits like us in Unleashed where we're a mix of people from all over the world that play in a euro timezone, we can no longer maintain our outfit.

This is horrible thinking and treatment from SOE.
