    This is just a game. And if you have played any MMO over the last decade you will realise there are always pre-release crashes.

    I think most people here forget this part. The whole compare of someone fucks up your real life house isnt valid here, in a digital product that we play to have fun and/or relax.

    And we still pay for this game! Also yes I have played other MMOs before so I know that there are crashes and stuff like that. Barely anyone would complain if we had some crashes and maintenance but the problem was created by SEs own design choice. They choose to place two long solo instances at the beginning of their MSQ, they also choose to gate everything behind those MSQ and instances are shared between servers of a datacenter..I am quite sure that this would have been way smoother if they did not introduce solo instances that early and if they would have unlocked a whole zone without the MSQ..so yes the horrible EA launch was completely their fault and could have been avoided. So no I dont see a reason to thank them for solving a problem they themselves created..(and did they truly solve it or was is just something that solved itself after quite the hours itself? The only maintenance they had was because of the ruby sea bug)

    Also WoW has learned from their launches and it seems that their Legion launch was nearly flawless. The expansion before that was horrible and they gave five days playtime as a compensation. So yes the real competitor of FF14 is seemingly able to get it done better.

    Letter from the Producer LIVE Part IX Q&A Summary (10/30/2013)
    Q: Will there be any maintenance fees or other costs for housing, besides the cost of the land and house?
    A: In older MMOs, such as Ultima Online, there was a house maintenance fee you had to pay weekly, but in FFXIV: ARR we decided against this system. Similarly, these older MMOs also had a system where your house would break down if you didn’t log in after a while in order to have you continue your subscription, but this is a thing of the past and we won't have any system like that.
