    Allow us to do stuff while World Visiting

    So it's been over a month since the atrocious EW launch and while the queues have gotten slightly better in some Worlds and Data Centers, it's still terrible in others and by the looks of it SE has moved to working on NFT mining instead of upgrading their servers.

    Fine. As always it's up to us players to fix the indie company's shortcomings by voluntarily visiting other Worlds to alleviate the queues.

    What is NOT fine however is that we are punished for doing this by not being able to do certain activities like accessing our retainers (with limited options like not being able to post in MB), gather Collectable/Legendary nodes or entering the Firmament, you know, the place where you decided to place the 2 current highest level Custom Delivery's NPCs.

    It makes absolute no sense that content and areas of the game are restricted just because you are not on your own World. What's the point of limiting nodes to World visitors when the nodes are not a limited resource? What's the point of limiting access to the Firmament when there is no longer rankings?

    If you are not going to upgrade your servers or open up World Transfer, then at least remove the restrictions to World Visiting so that your paying customers can have access to the game they paid for.

    Didn't people jump during the Firmament stuff and ruin it for other servers?

    Also your character looks as angry as your post reads.

    Back when there were rankings, yes. But now the Firmament is abandoned old content, so the restriction should be lifted.

    He said he was unsubbing a couple weeks ago, then changed his mind almost immediately. These people just seem to live for complaining lol.

    It's not the servers that are the issue, it's their technical expertise. FF14 backend servers are clockwork and they seem to have not interest in improving it except adding more of them.

    Take inventory for an example, their solution to solve this is to change you a subscription yes... a subscription to give you more inventory.

    How does World Visit alleviate the queues at all? If anything you're adding to them by taxing the login server again despite already being logged in.

    Seriously, why? Practically every post from him reads like someone just slamming their fists on a keyboard. Valid critique is fine, but a lot of what he's done since registering is just shrieking into the void... If you say you're gonna unsub, bloody unsub. I sure wouldn't keep paying for something I don't like, and at this point I question if he even enjoys complaining. Seems more like going through the motions than anything. Nevermind that he was one of the posters vehemently denying the supply chain issue...

    Gotta love fanboys attacking the poster instead of discussing the topic at hand. Then again I wouldn't even bother defending the undefendable

    You can World Visit from the login menu using the "Visit Another World" button if you left click on your character. For example right now it allows you to log in on Primal by visiting worlds like Famfrit, Lamia or Ultros while Leviathan and Behemoth have queues of 1k+
