Wow this is a week late.... Servers are up an running pretty good now. A few hiccups but nothing like the initial week of release.

Exactly, the launch had typical mmo issues but the development team was forthcoming in communication and have also fixed the issues. Article is pointless

Digital downloads are still suspended and it's near impossible to find a physical copy of the PC version in my area. It's better for owners of the game not the people trying to buy it and sign up. With that said, this article makes no sense.

Unlike Sim City, FF can't really do an offline mode..

How the F**k could a mind even make such connections is a wonder ...

The only thing I hate about gaming is the "journalism" tied to it. Oh, and most microtransactions/cash shops.

The difference between FFXIV and SimCity is that SimCity forced you to play online when it should of been an offline game.

FFXIV did have it's issues with the servers, it's an MMO, I don't think there has been a smooth launch for an MMO that I've known. The problems were fixed within days and they gave people a week of free play. I took advantage of that and it's a fun game, much better than 1.0.

Well the game for PC is sold out almost everywhere and there's no ETA on when retailers will restock or when digital downloads will resume. So a game has been released but I can't buy it? It's far from being the Sim City disaster but this has been bad.
