It's not right, but this is their usual mode of operation sadly.

tbf what could they of done not release it? There is no point in building a system that could handle 15k requests a minute when in normal use it wouldn't see numbers that high. just need to wait for the player base to get the novelty out of their system anything breaks when you push it past its limits.

This is to any who says: "Do we really need more servers and DCs?"

Yes, yes we do.

I don't trust them with anything anymore since she haunted us

Better to have something that can handle it than not at all.

It was my thought too, there's additional obfuscation for them being on another DC and <traveller> rather than just a <wanderer> on the same DC.

A lot of marketboard balancing is likely happening too. People moving fast to get cheap goods from one DC to another to make maximum gil.

And?
If it's them burning money or having peoples chars literally stuck on other DCs for an unknown amount of time, I'd go with the first option.

Money that comes out of the Yearly budget to fix a self-fixing issue.

Imagine having to rent a bunch of servers on a short-term lease and only getting two days of use out of them and hiring a bunch of network engineers to install and format them across 3 physical locations for again an issue that will fade in like one or two days. its not chump change
