------------------------------------------------------
What exactly is going on is that as soon as I started the quest taking me to the first Stormblood area, I started loading. Now I'm stuck on the loading screen whenever I log into the game. And then after about 1 minute, I get the error "An unexpected error has occurred" and then the game proceeds to close itself. I have tried doing a clean boot, uninstalled the game 4 times, restarted my computer, modem. And so far nothing has helped and this is the first time I have ever experienced an issue like this.

So was told to post my issue to the bug report forum and it gets moved back here. looks like im never playing ff14 again due to this game breaking bug.

Hello Miesta, Thank you for posting on the Final Fantasy XIV Technical Support Forums.

You did mention that you have reinstalled the game, when you do this are you deleting all the files from the "my documents" folder before reinstalling? If not please try once more. Please keep us posted on if this helps your issue.

Hope to be of assistance.

Hello everyone,
