I was just reading a list of known issues for Final Fantasy XIV and laughed out loud at the last one:
-If a player has viewed the credits, the game may display the error message ” An update error has occurred. Error 20524″ and fail to update properly.
*We apologize for the inconvenience, but if this error occurs we ask that you please reinstall FINAL FANTASY XIV.
Holy hell that’s a bug and a half! Whatever you do, don’t view the credits or you will need to go through the pain of reinstalling/patching. Maybe it’s ok to run them and not look at the screen (this is a Japanese game after all).
Can you imagine this sort of thing ever occurring with World of Warcraft?
