It's not "7 Free Days of Playtime". Stop calling it that.

Except no one is paying for early access. They are paying for the game. Paying early allows for potential to play early, but is not a guarantee. He isn't paying extra for the early weekend, there was not a $5 fee added to the monthly fee if you accessed Endwalker content this weekend.

I did not pay for early access. I paid my monthly sub. I have not been able to play the game I bought access to with my monthly sub. 2002 error are preventing people from accessing the game as a whole, not just EW.

But if you paid for 4 apples and got 7 you got 3 free apples. And you might get more...

Right now, yes, I am still receiving 3 free apples. But please tell me you are not naive enough to believe the problem will be fixed in the next 3 days. Save this post and quote me on it if it happens.

They are "adding" 7 days, You didnt Pay for those 7 days.
Thus, they are Free.

Even if you were to go pay for 7 days right now, they are still adding 7 days to your account.
Do the math, you now have 14 days, but you only paid for half of those days, the other half was given to you for free.
So its still a Free 7 days

If I pay for 7 days of playtime to get 7 days worth of playtime and got 0 hours of playtime due to a failure on SE's part and then they add 7 days of playtime at a later date, it's NOT FREE. It's what I paid for and they didn't provide at the time I paid for it.

It's really not that hard to understand. If apples are too complex think about oranges.

You like to pick little details to inflate, ignoring everything else, so you can pretend people said something else, don't you. I'll just let you keep arguing with yourself.

Your right, It's not that hard to understand. Think about it. Rather than 30 days that you normally are subscribe for this month you get 37 days this month, before it's time to renew your subscription. Or maybe you paid for a 90 day. That would be 90+7 before you'd have to renew. It doesn't take rocket science. So take those apples and chew on it.

I couldn't care less about if it's free or not. I paid for the collector's pre-order. How am I exactly getting any benefits if I am unable to log in to claim said bonuses? The issue is SE has always had this issue with expansion releases. Even back on 11. They know this always happens, yet have never learned from them to take steps ahead of time to make sure there will not be a problem such as you know. Buying new servers before hand to make sure all can enjoy what they have paid for. I don't mind waiting to get in but when I cannot even log into the data center to get into the queue at all? Unacceptable.
