Hereâs the end of Final Fantasy XIV, Square-Enixâs MMO getting a reboot in the form of Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn. Fittingly for a flawed endeavorâone Square-Enix officially apologized forâthe last day didnât go so well for some users.
A glut of traffic is to be expected whenever youâre bringing down an MMOâwho doesnât want to party like itâs the end of the world?âbringing problems with it. Kotaku reader Endzo reports the finale was plagued by disconnections, login difficulties and error screens. âThere were so many wanting to log on and fight in these promised epic battles that Square Enix had to start turning players away based on subscription end date,â Endzo writes. Those who could get in had trouble with lag, in menus, and in forming parties. Those who were close to the servers were more likely to finally tangle with âgargantuan level 100 monsters that up to now were only seen in cut scenes.â
âThe last server message repeated before the servers unceremoniously closed with an abrupt r0: âConfound it! Weâ ve lost contact with the main host!'â Endzo said.
Well, thatâs a wrap, I guess. Character data from XIV was last saved on Oct. 31, and will be transferred into Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn is scheduled to enter beta sometime this winter.
