    Uh, I can still patch this.

    Just tried launching FFXIV for the laughs and then it turned to horror as it started patching.



    If you want the full effect.

    Hahah! 'Local Connections: 1'? So there's someone else out there trying to login to the game with the patch at the same time? I find that hilarious (I wonder if it's me, I still have 1.0 installed on my system. ).

    Considering 1.0's updates were handled by P2P, it's not surprising, the patcher is searching players with the game installed to patch instead of searching SE's own 1.0 patch server (which is almost definitely offline).

    Apparently it was just the patch that changes the login to a page that says "Go away and buy ARR".
