Final Fantasy 14 producer Yoshi-P apologizes for the Dawntrail expansion's early access technical issues

A hopeful adventurer looks to the horizon in Final Fantasy 14: Dawntrail, while the spectre of a leather mask looms salaciously in the sky beyond.

Final Fantasy 14 producer Naoki Yoshida has issued an apology for some prominent technical issues that have arisen during the early access test period for its latest expansion.The Dawntrail expansion has been overall very well-received, but the prominent performance issues—especially on Xbox—led to Yoshida sharing an apology on FF14's website.

The biggest issue right now is Dawntrail's Xbox version, which will sometimes stop responding when transitioning between different areas like leaving a city or hopping between field locations. The developer's investigation indicates it might be a memory fragmentation problem, so for now they recommend players stick to low-population worlds to better avoid it. A fix for that is in the pipe.
