Well, it may be a needle in a haystack, but it's definitely not just one :P A lot of people get this kind of error in many different ways. Oh and it doesn't hang in both DX modes. It just throws that error after pressing the Play button on the launcher for the DX11. Only DX9 is capable of actually getting in for a minute or two. At best. I'm an IT and I know where you're coming from, but the reason here is perfectly simple and obvious. Bad patch.

I can say that because everything else works perfectly just as it did. The only thing that doesn't want to work is FFXIV AFTER this patch. Before it worked perfectly and I haven't changed nothing in that time and by that I mean nothing new installed, nothing new downloaded, nothing adjusted. On top of that I thoroughly tested the stability of the PC and checked if there are any errors on the HDD, registry and so on and so forth. Everything being top notch.

I'm just hoping that this issue is being addressed and the next maintenance window will fix this, even though it wasn't listed in the change list for it. Otherwise I'm gonna feel a bit scammed tbh. I mean maintenance window took 1 day, then I can't play for the next 2 days and if the next patch/maintenance wouldn't fix the issue, I'd most likely be looking at more days lost. It may be nothing to most, but I don't have money to spent. Every day counts for me.
