SE Failed.

Oh it's another "anyone that disagrees with me is a keyboard warrior" keyboard warrior.

[_Dissolution_]

I cannot help but agree. The fanboy attitude doesn't really cut it. It really just sounds ridiculous and silly hearing the defense.

I have a lot of respect for the company. I just recently started but do like the game. I can appreciate the history of the game and the community etc. However continuing to sell copies of the game when you cannot meet the demands is bad business.

A disclaimer should be placed on Steam and the primary store stating that purchasing the game and/or paying a monthly fee does not guarantee that you will have access to the product.

Anyone who plays online games understands patches and maintenance. This is a different category. I can understand the situation and even empathize a bit. However, coming into this after the game has been established this long and walking into 5k queue's, with hours upon hours in queue...getting kicked from the launcher 1/2 the time after hours of waiting. That needs to be addressed to the consumer before they put out the money.

Right at this point I really do feel like this game is checking the boxes for me, however I do feel a ton of regret for buying it. If I had access it would be one thing, but at this point it feels like money wasted. Really hope a solution can even be found. 5k queues with 3+ hour wait times is not a manageable model for a hefty box price and monthly sub.

All I see is whaaaawhhaaaa whaaa.

Im sitting in a queue, as I am sure everyone else is. (or trying to since the lobby continues to "pew-pew' the sheets as well).

Whether I type on here while in the queue or not it appears to have no impact on the queue speed.

To be clear, the defense being that the superconductor shortage makes it impossible for SE to resolve the issue anytime soon? Because I don't see that as silly. To me what is silly is people demanding instant gratification, like a customer at a restaurant demanding a salmon dinner, the restaurant literally having no salmon, and them demanding the restaurant go get more. Then when the chef explains there is a Salmon shortage because of an environmental disaster like an oil spill, that the restaurant literally cannot get any Salmon no matter how much they would be willing to pay for it, the customer continues to demand more Salmon, convinced, somehow, that the chef has it in their power to get more when there isn't any.

Not the best analogy, I know.

THey aren't saying 'don't post about it' they're saying 'post in the pre existing thread if there is one instead of making yet another new thread for the SAME SUBJECT.' It's about not clutting the forum with redundant threads, not about keeping people from posting their criticisms or complaints.

I for one would love to open the forums one day and see something that doesnt consist of peoples life story over the game or personal life essay or declare the game has failed.

Then why did the restaurant sell salmon and why is he still advertising salmon? Why is he still charging the customers for queuing up for salmon? And how are other restaurants getting salmon? How come they have had a problem with salmon providers for ages but no one else has?

[IdowhatIwant]

Square fell flat on their faces with Endwalker.. I've been playing since before ARR when the game failed, never canceled my sub and have been paying every month since then.
WHY? because I love SE too, and I want them to succeed. (Long time FFXI player as
well) But i will not blindly follow them, attacking anyone with criticism.

SE sucks. SE has always sucked. Obviously some of yall didn't play FFXIII or FFXV. Yeah don't like SE.

Do the right thing SE, or just stop lying about it.

The TRUTH will set you free.

They did kinda tell us the truth a while ago when they said there are going to be some queues. Everyone just kind of responded with it's okay, we love you Yoshi P. Yeah.
SE still sucks though.

I would love to enter the game without queues. You can avoid the threads you don't like and still use the forums, I can't avoid the queues and log into the game.
