Making a VPN necessary to play the game and enjoy yourself, whilst completely ridiculous, is all good and well for PC users. Because, hey! Why not have to pay an additional subscription to have access to the game you also subscribe to? But what about the PS4 users?

I remember 2.0 issues, and the game being, 'Literally unplayable' (read, disconnected every 2 minutes, literally couldn't play.) And things got better, eventually. So I'm hoping things get better now. Because, jeez, a month before a major expansion and this happens? Ouch.

Yeah, I really don't want to pay for a VPN subscription on top of my FFXIV subscription, but I really don't want to quit either. I need my MMO fix, and there aren't a lot of good options right now.

Routers can have VPN support (and thus work for PS4 players), but it's a lot of research and possibly more money spent just to be able to play comfortably.
