I some what agree with OP, stuff like this happens in MMO's how ever.

- When your open beta stress test kind of failed, has bugs and you need to lock all servers because they can't handle the amount of people your ''try the game' failed.
The problem is that the Japanese didn't had this issue just NA/EU so they didn't bother testing longer and released it like this .

- They stated we would have gotten a longer early access, which they backed down from.
How ever when the early access which you paid for is so short I kind want to play during the EU peak time.
So no I'm not happy when you didn't test proper and do a maintenance now

- The Japanese servers are fine and I'm pretty sure there are a lot of Japanese playing final fantasy.
It does beg the question why is it fine there and not here?


If they keep this great treatment up I'm pretty sure their rep will sink and there will be people that won't be putting up with it.
