It’s definitely not borderline impossible lmao, it’s more like companies don’t want to pay for server capacity they don’t need so they have the minimum amount necessary. And that’s usually fine, except when you’re launching your game and you know there’s gonna be more people than normall

Most big streamers are either playing offline of stuck in loading as well. Stop spreading fake news bobby.

That being said … it’s starting to be a long wait ngl …

It’s offline play

They’ve made roughly 40M USD on this game so far, no excuse.

For bad games yes, for good games it shouldn’t be. Seems like you are playing a lot of bad games.

Exactly this right here. The game industry is supported by the constant white knighting of a minority of “gamers” that have been conditioned into thinking that this level of incompetence at launch after launch is just normal. It isn’t. It’s 2024. Spin up a few extra freaking servers, and stop saving pennies at every turn!

Does playing fully offline affect Cycle 1.0 characters coming back to online play?

Yes… I noticed that also… How can there be 1 EU server when a lot of players are actually from EU…

You can never come back to online mode with an offline character.

In my experience, this is likely from people with little to no experience in cloud infrastructure having to maintain and manage cloud infrastructure. I’ve seen “chief architects” at startups who don’t know IaC manually wiring it up in AWS.

EHG also were originally passionate ARPG fans who decided to build a game, so who knows how much they know vs winged vs outsourced. Outside of EHG as they are likely a special exception due to the above, I think the game industry likely has a skill issue as well because why work there getting paid 1/2 as much for more stress like this. Add to this retention issues where people get burnt out or move to another company, so the knowledge on how to handle this leaves each company by the time they launch a new game as many of them are different teams with different team members with multi year development cycles.

It doesn’t get easier, but hopefully one day you’ll find a new best buddy.

Pushing people to offline mode … cringe.

Yeah it should be noted that playing an offline character can not become a online character afterwards. A lot of people will think otherwise and be disappointed.

Disappointing for sure and expected better. Have not been able to get past character screen a single time. This is a Wednesday afternoon, what is the game gonna look like at peak times? Unacceptable.
