Server issues seemed inevitable when Path of Exile 2 launched. The developers even posted a short video about how big the numbers are ahead of launch, warning that there will likely be queues at launch due to the large influx of players. This turned out to be true, as there were over 150,000 waiting patiently (or probably impatiently) on Steam alone by the time it was supposed to go live.
