It IS frustrating though.

I checked. 1643rd in queue at 18:04. First in queue at 19:05. In game at 19:14.

It's not peak hour, and it's not release either.

Basically the free time I enjoy playing games when I get home from work, I'll have to use on something other than FFXIV because it'll be wasted queuing...

No wonder people try to stay logged in...
