As someone who covers MMORPGs often for our own column, Terminally Online, it's nice to be able to break from the usual doom and gloom about new MMOs (they really aren't doing so hot) and share some positive news for once. News, for instance, like the fact that Final Fantasy 11 has so many new players it's actually causing problems.
This has led to game director Yoji Fujito having to make an official announcement on the game's pleasingly retro forums: "Once again, we are seeing periods of congestion on the game's servers, this time with the Odin World, so I'd like to take a moment to explain what measures we will be taking to help address the issue."
