Some Final Thoughts on the 2017 Shirogane Housing Release Fiasco

Wrong. I have an i7, a 1070GTX and an SSD. I succeeded at entering the server 20min after the patch got released thanks to those beautiful quality servers.

I run the same and hit the WHY WONT PLAY, PLAY error. XP So there were seconds lost there..... It's really disappointing.....they are proud of the new servers...yet this happens..... like the OP said...its 2017....come on.....

Our plots in Lamia in Shirogane were gone in less than 8 minutes. Couldn't even find plots in the old zones by 10....we arent even that high pop either.... It was a bit surprising to see.

Honnestly I'm not surprised with SE. They cannot afford glamour log and house for everyone when games like WoW released in 2004 can. So I don't expect anything anymore from them.
GW2, released in 2012. Got account wide wallet, glamour log, minions, bank and pretty much everything, with cross server map that create and delete themselve when full or empty. Next to them SE is nothing.
EDIT: oh, did I forgot to mention that all those services are free and you don't even pay a sub for it?

Yeah, but you're comparing apples to oranges. even with ffxiv trying to match WoW's style of game structure.

I also do not mind a sub fee.

none of this relates to my posting however. i was referencing the servers and the new technology they keep touting that clearly arent up to standards. it wasnt even the entire playerbase that logged in, and they still couldnt handle it. then there were the issues of resellers and the like. *shrugs* while no not surprising, every game has its faults....and this is a glaring one that xiv has.
