I have - PSO2, or more specifically, post-NGS PSO2. But yes, this entire situation has been like watching a trainwreck in real-time. There's a dozen points where they could have salvaged things but they just KEEP fucking up.

I don't really even intend on playing on Epoch anymore after all I've seen, especially after having gone through this song and dance enough times by now to recognize how fucked things truly are.
