I remember my first mmorpg. all the whining takes me back. History does repeat itself.

I find blaming the launch issues on semiconductor shortage and COVID insulting at best.

This exp has been planned since well before the world fell apart. Once hardware started becoming a problem SE had more than enough time to acquire it and get it up and running before this launch.

They are using it as an excuse and nothing more. My guess is that there was a financial decision made not to add servers dues to cost. *which, yes, may be due to current world issues* And this is fine. I accept the reality of that business decision... What I struggle to accept is twisting it into this "oh poor us, we can't find hardware"

The auto industry is suffering because of the sheer volume of chips they need. SE only required a fraction of that to add servers.

There's nothing that can be done about it. It is what it is and I accept that. It just really upsets me that we are being fed, what I believe, to be a false narrative as an explanation.

Thank you for listening to my rambling TED Talk as I wait in queue.

I look forward to your precise list of hardware you propose they purchase and a list of viable suppliers. Have it on Yoshi P's desk in the morning.
