Tell me about it...

Exclusive weapons and a car skin with exclusive quests and rewards tied to it it seems?

I thought it was a road trip dlc exclusive to Amazon.
Turns out its an Amazon road trip presented by Amazon

Play interactive movies for 3 weeks to earn dlc. Doesn't seem all that unalike to the deus ex thing.

You're telling me! This is ridiculous, now it's been spoiled for me that the game partly takes place in the Amazon River. I'm so mad!

I pre-ordered from Amazon after Uncovered and just received a promo code, but roadtrip.finalfantasyxv.com is unavailable right now.
I am guessing you will input your pre-order promo code and do the quests (web browser based?) to earn the extra DLC stuff.
Pretty cool.

I got the Email as well, but I was planning on canceling the deluxe edition for the regular ._.
RECLAIM YOUR KINGDOM WITH THIS DIGITAL MINI GUIDE YOU GET VIA PREORDER

You only get the roadtrip DLC if you preorder through amazon right? There's no amazon in my country so I won't do that, but more DLC never hurts.
Seems to be that way.
I wouldn't be quite this reductive, but the boatload of dlc and advertisements, plus the way the FFXV team presents them just turns me off completely.

I was wondering how we were getting those extra weapon DLCs.

Does the Square Enix Store offer these pre-order DLC as well? I'm starting to get confused. Are multiple retailers offering differing DLC packs?
GasProblem

Yes. The DLC is spread all over retailers. Different weapons, travel packs like camera kits, skins for the Regalia.

I'm not getting the "ugh really?" reactions =/
In what way is this bad? It's just a little something extra to do while you wait and you get a car skin/sword/daggers/polearm that you would have to probably buy later through purchasable DLC otherwise.
On another note, pre-ordering the deluxe through Amazon and then participating in this
promo gets you a nice chunk of stuff:
Steelbook
Kingsglaive BluRay
DLC:
Leviathan Regalia Skin
Golden Chocobo Regalia Skin
Noctis Suit costume
Masamune
Blazefire Saber
Mage Mashers
Gae Bolg

It's quite possibly the most insufferably obnoxious marketing campaign for a game release I can remember. So much content bloat outside of the game experience itself. What's worse is that I think it will pay dividends for Square Enix (at least in North America; Japan might be a lost cause).

Who offers the best pre-order bonuses?

I remember the Watch_Dogs campaign. SE have at least not called an item "iconic" yet.

I wish this was available for everyone with say, a Square Enix account, and not Amazon. Amazon is not available in my country, so I'll either never get it, or pay for it in the future.
Unless the road trip DLC is available for everyone.

My only misgiving with the Deluxe Edition is the inclusion of the Blu-ray. I don't really want to own a physical copy of Kingsglaive...
Other than that the Steelbook is what sold me, wish it came with a making of Blu-ray instead. Kinda like how FFXII's Steelbook edition came with a Final Fantasy retrospective DVD.
Urgh don't just accept it, complain!
Still annoyed UCE isn't seemingly getting any pre-order bonus, or a retailer one at least anyway.
Probably GAME/Gamestop anyway as that would give Kings Tale and a weapon, I think Gae Bolg for GAME at least, not too sure for Gamestop.

That SE marketing team scrambling to fill up 2 months of marketing content thanks to the delay.
"Hey let's show some dessert footage everyones seen for a year and then make some interactive movies to give some dlc away".
Maybe editing an English dub TGS trailer would be a better usage of resources.

I wouldn't be surprised if other retailers start sending out promo codes for the roadtrip website as well. Might not be an Amazon exclusive, they may have just been the first to update their website/drop a video.

Decent amount of stuff.

Trailer says the content is presented by Amazon so it's likely exclusive to that retailer.

So glad I'm just buying the base solus version.
This kind of thing is awful.

I hope so.
There is by now so much DLC that is exclusive to preordering here or there with this or that edition of the game and many other actions...it's insane really. But some of the stuff I would really like to own. :/Community Forum

True but all of that other DLC existed already under different retailer pre-orders which makes me think it may not be Amazon exclusive. If it was stuff we have never seen before I wouldn't even question it but I guess we'll see soon enough...

This kind of crap is such a tragic joke.
I'm just gonna sit back, hope the game's good then assuming it is, order a copy from the cheapest retailer. Simple.

Road trip doesn't unlock until November 1.
I had already pre-ordered from Amazon so this is a nice little bonus that doesn't bother me in the least. It's not like my price is suddenly going up because of this stuff. At this point, it's just extra content and if it turns out to be lame I can just skip it and wait for the main game.
