This meant some people were playing a "pre-release build", as Yoshida described it. It didn't help that the Mac version was available to download a play before Square Enix was able to conduct planned maintenance.

Had we provided accurate information beforehand, I know many of you would not have purchased the Mac version, which is why we decided to offer full refunds. "Because of this situation, many of you purchased a product which your Mac hardware could not run at even the minimum system requirements, resulting in insufficient performance, for which many of you have expressed your dissatisfaction. "While the development and operations teams, as well as our entire company, were involved in this mistake, it was I who ultimately made the decision to release the Mac version under these circumstances and therefore bear sole responsibility, and I sincerely apologise to you all," Yoshida wrote in a post on the Square Enix forum. Square Enix exacerbated the problem by releasing incorrect system requirements before the Mac version's release, which Yoshida said was done "in the chaos" leading up to the multi-platform launch of the Final Fantasy 14 expansion, Heavensward. In particular it performs poorly compared to the Windows client - even on Mac machines with equivalent hardware. The Mac version of the game launched on 23rd June, and players quickly found it suffered from a raft of bugs and performance issues. Producer and director Naoki Yoshida apologised for the various technical issues associated with the Mac version of the fantasy massively multiplayer online role-playing game, as well as poor communication ahead of launch. Square Enix has pulled the Mac version of Final Fantasy 14 from sale and offered customers refunds.
