It’s my favorite genre so I picked up the $20 early access on PS5 only to be met with a ridiculous queue at around noon on a Tuesday. What? Are only like 5 people allowed online at once?

This is ridiculous.

    Update: my controller turned off after waiting in queue for 15mins which disconnected me completely. What?? Back to FFXIV I guess.

        I’ve put about 5 days played into FFXIV. I got in Heavensward and I’m beginning to feel burnout. Idk I’ve enjoyed it but combat sequences are so few and far between in the MSQ. I just run from npc to npc all day. Feels more like a visual novel than a MMO.

          haha genuinely, i feel the same about FFXIV and i’m not even as into MMOs as you. I tried to get into it, got about 60% through the ARR MSQ, and then lost interest. That base game is still ROUGH, or at least it was when i played.

          Break it up with the daily dungeons/raids. Also, ARR is the longest slog to ever have slogged - they cut it down significantly already and it’s still a massive slog.

          Take a break, return for the actually good expansions later. It will still be there.

      Funny you’d bring FFXIV up, I guess you haven’t been around for EW’s release? :D
