Maintenance on Halloween?

I could buy games on steam and then not play them.

I feel called out

the poster said 24h, not "24th". meaning 24 hours. if you're going to be snarky at someone, make sure you double-check what you're reading first.

Oh snap. I’ve been told off lol

A mistake. Good lord

Still something to not have a fit over.

Finally! The best season is finally here~! Sorry society, you HAVE to act a bit more civilized just for a little while, it's Christmas~! Don't want to be a scrooge, right? :^D

I call it bah humbug season for a reason. I really can't stand it. Forced cheer is not for me. I will do what I always do for bah humbug. Pack the hubby off to his family for the day and stay home alone and enjoy the peace and quiet. Heavenly.

You just answered your own question. Square Enix is a JAPANESE company. Almost 1/3 of the players are Japanese. Yoshida is Japanese. They have no reason to cater to us whatsoever. If you don’t appreciate their culture, don’t play their game. It’s that simple. Plenty of American games have Halloween events. You don’t go to Japan to promote gaijin no gomi and FFXIV is no different.



You hit the nail on the head. They don’t owe us ANYTHING. The sub for this game is cheaper than Netflix. Yoshida pours his blood, sweat and tears into this game and we pay pennies in exchange. I think we should be grateful that we’re getting anything at all. This isn’t Blizzard that we’re talking about here, this is Square Enix. They’re doing what they can with the small amount of resources that they have.

"Gaijin no gomi", meaning "the trash of foreigners"? Bit of an exaggeration, no?

It starts in the evening, when you should be outside anyway.

First time playing a MMORPG that has maitenance on a holiday that has lots of parties and events. Why they need to shut all servers down for adding another datacenter not connected to the others.

But it is connected to the others? Dynamis should be able to visit the other NA DCs.

I don't think there's been any official confirmation on that (?) but I'd be shocked if we didn't. I might have just missed it somewhere though.
