All you need to do is one little Freeze (on this game or any other, don't matter), and you're screwed.

This is the first time i was in a early access, and the last. I will wait for at least a month before playing the next add-on after stormblood, i don't want to see this anymore.
U g h, that's what I was afraid of...

System/game crashing hasn't been an issue for me at all so far (famous last words) - we get lightning storms in my area quite often this time of the year, so that's my main concern. I'm just waiting for us to lose power, the UPS to do it's job, and then still get hit with this problem. But from the sound of things, I wouldn't be surprised. 8T

I can understand how a big issue like this might have gone unnoticed until live release (I can't imagine them testing to see what happens if they cut power to a PS4 system and try to reboot the game, lol) but half a month to even acknowledge it is ridiculous. As someone who's just restarted replaying this MMO after ages, this is not a fun issue to deal with as a new player. Or any player, of course - new players just have less of a commitment to keep putting up with it. /grouchy face
