Welcome to Playstation. Everything goes through their servers... EVERYTHING. Like it or not, that's how PS4 and PS3 rolls. It's part of the deal when you develop for the system, and the alternative is simply not releasing FFXIV on the console.

So... you can argue til yer blue in the face really. The ones you need to argue with are Sony.

No, the alternative is to play on another platform.

OP, I understand your frustration, but your complaint would be more appropriate on Sony's forums. Ultimately I don't think anything will come out of complaining. It's Sony's platform and they dictate the rules.

Well yes, but that's not really an alternative for those who don't own another platform.

Network features are hardcoded to PS4 OS. I don't think that SE can do anything about it. FFXIV wont be able to use the network features of PS4 unless they use the one from the OS. I'm sure SE have already done their best by not requiring PS+.
If you have concerns for PSN, I think you have to voice it out to Sony.

Your PS3/PS4 has to authenticate to PSN so that your user and license can be verified for playing an online game. Functionality such as game share, game streaming, cloud saves and trophies all use PSN services, so authenticating to PSN is unavoidable. Given the number of high profile hacks this last calendar year, I don't think you're going to get much sympathy from any operator of an online service that involves paid software licenses and services if you're asking them to reduce the security requirements for their service(s).

You had your heads up, and the solution to said issue.

Indeed.

This point is also important to recognize.

Literally nothing to fix. Your options are to join the master race, or continue to suffer in squalor.

Please uninstall the game. 1 less player to make the NA player base look bad.
