Look at the state of the forums.

Most forum posters I see have history and seem to have been playing for a while. And even if you’re a new player, it doesn’t mean you don’t know Square Enix, their games and usual practices.

Just a white knight assuming stuff to make a thread in a middle of threads filled with frustration which honestly with the current situation is only understandable.

Let’s be real, the servers issues could have been partially taken care of way before the coof. As an example, JP has 3 data centers. EU has 2. It’s little things like that, which make you question why. 100% it has to do with the suits and not the actual devs, because it’s very often how it goes but it still reflects a bad management image.

Excuse my French, however, I must say:

what?

I admit, this is a fascinating reaction lol

As an example, JP has 3 data centers. EU has 2.

Back in July EU had about 60% of the active non-free trially characters compared to JP according to luckybancho. That gap closed recently but EU has traditionally had much fewer players than NA or JP I believe. According to the latest LuckyBancho NA's population has exploded. It's not to dismiss the issue but when according to the latest Lucky Bancho NA has over twice the number of active characters as EU and still has 3 data centers, something bigger is the problem than just the number of data centers EU has imo
