Between the enduring willingness of Japanese players to queue for hours in a virtual world, the ineptitude of Square Enix for still not having fixed the game to stop them having to, or the howls of rage echoing through Eorzea as the zone they were all queuing up to get into bugged and had to be taken down, Final Fantasy XIV’s rebirth is shaping up to be as controversial as ever.
