1.0 was... playable? Even the MENU back then was reliant on server side communication and simple things just as opening your character tab lagged for minutes on end. The opening cutscene was reduced to a power point slide presentation that nearly melted most people's hardware back then. Saying it was playable is really, really a stretch.

By comparison, once IN the game with Endwalker, the experience for the vast majority of people is buttery smooth.

I'll say again, EW is nowhere even close to the worst launch in MMO history. All of you have every right to be upset and voice your complaints and grievances, but don't make obvious terrible comparisons or gross exaggerations when your viewpoints don't require them.

It doesn't have to be the "worst launch in MMO history" to have a valid point that the 2002 and 90002 errors should be looked at and continually addressed, or that SE starts comping more free gametime to compensate for the loss of subscription time paid for and wasted. You're being disingenuous with this over exaggeration.
