Yoshi-P's heartfelt speech.

sounds like celebrity or a politician when they make a mistake and get caught with there hands in the cookie jar.. Crying really??? give me some popcorn

I dunno man, he worked himself into a fever early on (literally), and this is pretty unprecedented. A huge chunk of gamers were convinced that that the game that is here today, would never exist / it was impossible to restructure and revamp an MMO that failed, and still retain interest. They not only did that, but managed to tie it into the story, and make what was left of 1.0 decently fun.

2.0 is tons of fun when you are playing, its just Square Enix's fault as a company, for not take precautions for server capacity.

The service is there and is gradually getting better. After two days of constant 90k errors today I was able to get in and play for over eight hours with only one game crash.

Turns out my wireless receiver may have been to blame because as soon as I changed that, no more problems.

for you it is but tell that to the thousands of ppl who bought the game and can't get in bc they sold example "2,000,000 copies and only able to provide service for 1 mill.

I agree, there should have been more servers ready to go for NA/EU, I know your frustration because every time I got a 90k error it was always prime time and I could never get back in. But the anger should be directed to SE NA, who are likely operating those servers and putting the login restrictions in place till they can get their butts in gear. Wish those guys warts and boils. Not Yoshi :S

true but yoshi is the face of FFXIV ARR NOT SE he knew what was in it for him good or bad

Like he said, he's the tank. He's gonna take the hits. Even when it's not his fault...

Developers always create an estimate and theirs is clearly surpassed and weren't ready for the outcome.

He even went as far to write:

The game has evolved into something much bigger than we ever thought possible.

Could you fault SE for this small mistake? I'm happy that the game runs smooth with no errors what so ever, if the servers are the only issue then this is possibly the best MMO launch in years.

The game is good but if they can't provide the service don't buy the game.
