Thread: I thought about taking the 17th off work for 2.1 but then I remembered...

Crazy, I know, but ever since I was little, I was aware of this amazing truth in the world, that truth being that there's... more than one game you can play.

It's like having another nut, that you can play, outside.

Other games??? I thought only FFXIV existed.

I'm just picking up pieces of my mind after the crazy idea.

Well, I got all the time between Christmas and New Years off. They'll have the kinks worked out by then.

Ok serious question and I want everyone bitching about this to answer me please. Think back over all the games you have ever played. Think really hard. When has a game ever added content and we the players NOT expected a weeks worth or more (depending on the game) of fixes and emergency maintenance and shut downs? (No free to play crap references though, seriously those aren't even games.) Anyone? Yeah, cause this happens in every game. Why must people keep bitching about the dumbest stuff? Go outside for a day, do your Xmas shopping, something! Is your world so narrow that you get riled over a 24 hour shut down of a MMO?

Nothing will ever compare to vanilla WoW Thursday nights when they took the servers down before instance resets. So many BWL runs ran late / were canceled due to planned maints getting extended. What can ya do?

Good thing those "emergency maintenences" he sees in his magic crystal ball will all be happening between midnight and 8am according to the soothsayer.

At least I have GTA 5 to play in case maintenance gets prolonged.
