Apology from Yoshi

[daedalusAI]

Oh and gating a MSQ-scenario in a single instance everyone has to go through is so pathetic it almost renders me speechless: you don't properly expect a flood of players and yet you force all of them into 1 scenario.
It really seems most if not every game company only employs people that are not or cannot be critical towards decisions from higher up: You can't convince me that their whole FF14 stormblood team couldn't foresee gating the MSQ behind a single scenario is a good idea.

As far as complaining and forgetting it goes: I will remember such massive blunders. And unlike a lot of people I make no arbitrary distinction that it's "only a game".
The other poster comparing it with a midnight screening was spot on: in that case you would go berserk when the movie is unwatchable due to the cinema's inability to foresee a rush a people - but when it's a game you suddenly caress the company with silken gloves and even defend their avoidable mistakes.

Hype is gone tbh.

For someone who got past Raubahn, it isn't just him.
The next instance with Pippin is the same situation. Every job quest is also like this.
Honestly, they should've started transfers before Stormblood early access, not at the start.

On my server there are probably only thirty people total still trying to get past Pipin. Everyone else seems to have given up for now or is still stuck on Raubahn. None of us have managed to progress in the past four or so hours (that we know of, folks don't seem to be telling if they do manage to get past).

My frustration levels are high right now. Been trying for over four hours to get past Raubahn. Nothing but "A system error occurred during event movement.".

[Madamepancake]

With frustration levels high, I wish SE would actually do something and not just say try again later. Its like they don't even care.

Sorry doesn't cut it. I want competence.

Being told the fun doesn't end with Raubahn. We have to deal with this crap from Pippin, Yugiri, our class quests, and a few others.

Yep.

Even if you get past Raubahn there's another solo duty shortly afterwards. I can't speak for how many there are beyond that but I imagine there's quite a few.

In less than an hour it will have officially been an entire day where this issue has existed. Some people have stubbornly tried to advance for most of that period. Others, such as myself have gone away and returned later in the hope that things will have improved only to find that nothing has changed.

It's also the weekend - a time where most people have extra free time so things aren't going to be smooth until at least Monday if this keeps up.

Don't be so harsh guys, it's not like they knew how many preorders they took, nor could they expect that people who pre-ordered would actually play the game at early access.
