But could afford a PS4? as someone said a few posts ago, you can build a PC that outperforms a PS4 for $400-500.

they already bought the PS4 for that price. in most places you have economies that have to budget so many of them might be able to afford to build a PC months down the road but for now they are stuck with what they have. if it were me I would be trying to sell the PS4 about now to make back as much money as I could off it. why give sony more money for a service they can't seem to get their act together with.

I was just able sign in. on ps4 after being down. Go Go Go

Just like many people who don't cook their own meals; there are people who don't want to build their own computers

Maybe they a console gamer, you saying they should buy a new computer for the sole purpose to play XIV on?

Usually reminds me I should do something productive during temporary shutdown

I used to be a console gamer too, then I played BF3 on my 360 next to my friend on PC. Maybe he just hasn't seen the light.

When you buy a console, you know that you are going to be bound by that console's rules. The PlayStation, just like the Xbox and the Wii U, requires you to be connected to their specific network. If that network goes down, you don't get to play online. If you don't want to play by those rules, then play on a PC. Whether or not you can afford such a PC is nobody's problem but yours, and nobody, least of all Square Enix, owes you anything.
