This is why if you even watch some people's non sped up videos you can notice a vast difference in load times for people, which is why some people actually time out even if nothing with XIV specifically is crashing them. The most common problem, the patcher, works for people but it also "never works, have to utorrent it" for others. As long as XIV remains unoptimized, PC setups are a common cause for a lot of issues in XIV since there's no "standard" for this game beyond leaving AO off.

If a lot of people has the issue, it must be server specific since the 2 crowded servers I play on I haven't heard anyone having zone crashes constantly or the shouts would be flooded with "why am I always dcing? ashakhwsuihdhajsh"..I actually haven't seen a lot of topics regarding non-DX related crashes in awhile either.
That makes no sense i never crashed/ d/c like this till 1.22 so where are you pulling this from? Constantly Ro's and crashing since a certain patch is not hardware issue's.
