good bye FFXIV, thanks to the lag, you lost another customer.

Being in Europe doesn't necessarily mean you're going to have more latency/lag. Depending where you are and how many hops (and their quality) you go through to get to/out of the undersea cables, you may have less than someone in the midwest of the US.

There are a lot of SE apologists in this thread, but you can't deny that SE has way more issues with lag, latency gameplay issues and disconnects than any other subscription MMO out there. Server-live was just such a poor choice, even for a "slow paced" game.

The thing is theoretically speaking, server lived is better than client lived but the average internet connection and the shady ISP in North America makes it not so good unless you have a pretty decent connection (that doesn't throttle you for petty purposes)or you live close to server.
