    ESO has so many money leeching and pay to win things, but still lacks content. XIV delivers more for the money, but not at the moment in terms of actually being able to play.

    Is it really too much to ask though? To play the game you pay for on a monthly basis? Where does the money go? Now I come home from work and won't be able to log in before bedtime. Yeah, great. If all people experiencing that would just unsub as suggested, you would soon be left with less content to look forward to

    As with any service you pay for, they can get overloaded. It is the very nature of these types of games. Here is the way I look at it. If I have to sit in queue until bed time, I instead do something else. The game isn't going away. If I must play during the day, I make arrangements such as remoting in from my phone to login early.

    Yeah I do other stuff too, but it is still frustrating. They should have been prepared. Also better cross-server party functionality might help with spreading the players more evenly.. But that is sci-fi for SE at this point.

    There was no amount of preparation that could have been done that wouldn't have led to a waste of money.

    I've posted this before, don't remember where, but if anything, they should learn from other MMOs and their mistakes. They should also look at solutions other MMOs have had over the years to adress the same issue we are experiencing. This sort of problem is nothing new, but it sure won't go away if you just apologise and temporarily fix it. It will come back to bite harder. It is really sad when those who have been looking forward to Stormblood so much have now been left with a sour taste.

    Thank you. I don't want to be the flaming nor the white knight kind on these forums given the circumstances. SE should do their job being the content provider and we should do our job and play and form a lovely community. That's all.
