Agree with Kyriea. I have never waited more than 45 minutes to log into FFXIV. Mostly it's 5~15 mins. I know it takes hours for some, but I'm just lucky I guess. I don't consider the server issues an affront to my existence. They suck, sure, but it happens.

The fact that I don't agree with the typical "SE is terrible yoshi is rolling around in all our money laughing at us" mentality makes me a white knight apparently.
