DDoS and square enix state
I'VE NEVER USED THE FORUM BEFORE BUT THIS TIME I FELT OBLIGED TO
Statement of Disapproval
To the Square Enix Team,
We wish to express our profound disappointment and frustration regarding the recent DDoS attack that has severely impacted our gaming experience and that of many others. At a time when the community was deeply engaged in intensive and challenging activities, such as raids and Palace of the Dead, we were abruptly and unjustly disrupted by a situation that not only broke immersion but also led to significant loss of progress and rewards.
It is both inconceivable and unacceptable that a company of Square Enix’s stature would allow its players to be subjected to such a level of disruption and frustration. The loss of raid progress and the invalidation of saves in activities like Palace of the Dead, particularly in solo mode, is a severe blow to the dedication and effort invested by each player. These events are not merely leisure moments; they represent personal and collective achievements reflecting the time, effort, and passion players put into their favorite game.
The lack of compensation or an adequate solution to address the losses incurred due to these attacks is particularly disheartening. We expect Square Enix to take immediate action to resolve this situation and implement robust protective measures to prevent future attacks, ensuring that the gaming experience is fair and satisfying for all its users.
Our community, which has committed itself to the game and to your company, deserves better treatment and assurance that their time and efforts are respected. We request that the severity of the situation be acknowledged and that fair and appropriate compensation be offered to the affected players.
