Dawntrail launch log-in queues

Wasn't a certain large streamer trying the game also part of the login issues last time? Kinda foggy on the exact timing of his coming to FFXIV so I could be wrong.

I have no idea, I wasn't around for EW's launch and I don't follow said obnoxious cockroach man, either.

I don't follow him either. His playing was just impossible to not know about at the time. His followers FLOODED the DC he rolled on and any other one they could roll a toon on and travel to him. I think I remember it coinciding with launch (or so close as not to matter) and really adding to the login chaos at the time.

Edit: In fact I moved my characters OFF his DC to Dynamis because of all the mess.

I swear I'll never understand that sort of behavior.

Which? The mess at login or me moving off the DC?

Taking the Free transfers to Dynamis was actually a very good move for me personally. I prefer smaller servers.

Neither - was referring to this sentence from the post (of yours) I quoted: "His followers FLOODED the DC he rolled on and any other one they could roll a toon on and travel to him.

Yet, you still feel entitled to comment on [Subject] concerning [Person] regarding [Situation], despite admitting you have no knowledge about it.
I find people like you amusing; everything you said was a waste of breath. Sometimes, it's better to stay silent.

Regarding the topic, if you believe it will be the same as Endwalker (EW), I'm afraid you'll be mistaken.
While I can't predict the future, Shadowbringers (ShB) marked the peak of FFXIV, wherein the same timeframe World of Warcraft (WoW) faced significant issues.
Despite the high anticipation for EW, it failed to meet expectations. Since its launch, the population has steadily declined, never reaching the levels seen with ShB.
EW was released during the height of the COVID-19 pandemic.
Several factors contributed to the outcome of EW launch.
None of these factors are currently at play, making the situations very different.
Additionally, we did not encounter any of these issues during the ShB launch.
