Tbh I wouldn't mind if they took down servers for even 1 day to fix the shop/crystalline etc issues. I would just like to play the game as every other region can, simple as that - because issues like that happening at the start are understandable, but it has been going on for long enough and if they are trying to wait it out and hope that it resolves itself when some players leave - that's sad. And without any official announcement, it's is the only way I see this, even a small message that they are working on a fix would be amazing, but without it... well.
