How has every other major MMO solved the problem of downtime other than FF14?

Is that so? I genuinely don't recall one going over that time, so I'll just take your word for it. What I'd like to actually see is for things like sub timers (and to a greater extent timed things like plants) to simply freeze while the game's offline

forgive me for intruding in this...but um...

while i might not know anything about the submarine aspect....PLANTS on the other...can ..just be put into your storage....and it freezes the timers.

..........just....thought i'd mention it.

You pay for a lot of things you can't use 24 hours a day. It might be semantics, but Netflix should only charge for 16-18 hours a day, not 24. Need that sleep.

That's not the same thing as this. A downtime period is one where I can't use the product because the game is down for reasons that are entirely on the company's end. What you're describing, my decision to sleep, doesn't warrant a refund because it's not netflix's fault that I can't access their service while I'm asleep. I don't know how else I can put this. In any case, I'm tired of splitting hairs over this bullshit, PEACE.
