Databases often run on separate instances in the cloud than the servers which need to access them, and that communication happens through the internet. When you start getting into multiple interacting servers, the communications between each server happens through the internet. Often just the communications channels are complex, with server group A communicating to a bridge which is tunneling through the internet to server group B, C, D, etc. And that happens even with fairly simple websites and the like. There's a LOT of communication across the net which needs to happen or things stop working. And often, if those communications fail for more than just a few seconds, it causes program crashes or abnormal terminations, which then cascades to other failures.
It's often possible (and common) to have redundant backup communications, but when the problem happens in a major internet backbone, there's a decent chance your backups go through the same backbone -- it's out of your control if that happens. Usually the backbones have some redundancy, but the redundant circuits can get overloaded and drop a lot of traffic -- something which has low traffic needs might work fine with a bit of a slowdown, and if you've got a sufficiently distributed system, you might still work because your clients can go to alternate data servers, but when you get into MMOs, that's another animal.
MMO network topology, in particular, is a massive spiderweb of cross communications, some between local servers, some across the net to remote servers, some to databases which may be local or remote, some to admin / login servers which may be local / remote, with status monitoring, and synchronization issues which make normal network administrators shy away in terror at the complexity of it all. And unlike, say, a streaming server, or your average website, ALL of that communication needs to run at a fairly consistent high speed or the MMO fails.
Fortunately, an MMO is a game, not something critical. People will survive an 8 hour outage. OTOH, I'm sure there are a lot of companies who are dealing with some very serious issues this morning due to the outage last night.

Anasatsudo✭✭After a couple of weeks gone from the game due to a family death, getting a house ready for market, dealing with the probate office, transferring bills, etc.. etc... I finally came back to relax a bit, only to find this crap happening. Pathetic.0

Looks like it could be since NA servers are in Texas somewhere. I looked at the map only 10 minutes ago and the blips were barely turning orange. Now they are red, so it as to be Level 3 again >>.

I turned on the map right when I first crashed out just to see, the map was only yellow in the spots that it is now red.
That said, it isn't like this company is absolved simply because another company is the one that has the issue.0 -

Like I mentioned in my post, the blips were only yellow with a slight orange 10-15 minutes ago. Now they are red, it seems the maps update pretty frequently"The day I start considering people's feelings before speaking my mind is the day my efficacy as a politician comes to an end.

Just an FYI - The PC NA servers, at least, are NOT down - there was some nasty lag around 6 PM for a bit, but I was neither kicked out of game, nor did it crash. I'm still in game, in fact, doing crafting and banking, and the lag seems to have gone away.0
