DDOS attack

Why is Square Enix so immune to any form of criticism whatsoever? Even the shareholders are critical, and they own the company.

Because they arent the only one that faced such issue. PSN had ddos issues for weeks at some point. Feam fortress 2 (partialy due to neglect) had even an entire month.

Google/microsoft/amazon all have 1 thing in common: they have the advantage of scale. Its not just 4 datacenters you need to attack to take them down. Its a lot more, and those datacenters are capable of handling a lot more traffic. There is no reason for square enix to install systems capable of handling the same sorts of traffic google would need. It would be a total waste of money.

Sony and valve have the advantage of also needing bandwidth for their shop downloads. Its again something that enables them to scale up, and yet they have still faced severe ddos issues several times.

Days of downtime is nothing in the scale of larger ddos attacks. Its quite normal.
