Wasn't part of the FFXIV launcher using Internet Explorer btw?

le semiconductors!! *conveniently ignores that these issues date back all the way to ARR*. Guess there was a semiconductor shortage in 2013 as well.

Huh? This wasn't the same issue. I mean HW/ARR had to be load balanced IN game because of server instability. They also resolved it and worked on getting more equipment. Shadowbringer I didn't have login issues. Stormblood was a lesson about instanced duties.

The game works perfectly fine. The worst "bug" it has is more people are trying to get into it than they can allocate for since the massive increase was in JULY.
