We need it for sure, but atm there's such a huge gap between JP prime time and NA/EU prime time. On my server there's 1.5k player every JP night on weekdays, weekend can hit 1.8k. But NA/EU time is like 600~700.

We need a merge because NA/EU population is too small, on the same time it's going to be 3k+ player per server on JP time if we merge ><

I propose we create a universal translator so we don't have to worry about the language gap... that would go ways further than a server merge to inducing more gameplay

It looks like the RME update didn't exactly draw people back in droves. Lakshmi still needs (at the least) to be combined with one other server.

Whatever/whenever (it) happens, it has been cordially decided that Asura bee merged to Fenrir.

Yes.

Fenrir has been the same as many, ranging from 400 to 1600, latter being some few hours before midnight in Japan (afternoon for me). Although right now, which is about 12 hours after, there are over 1000 characters around which is more than usual, I maybe guess.

Only JPs are back to be exact, sometimes it can go over 1.7k on weekend JP night, @2am JPT population drop back to 700.

That's also how it is on Lakshmi, although our highs aren't that high. We're more like 1300/600.

Seeing tops 10-15 bazaars in the chosen bazaar zone these days is quite depressing. I don't care when prime time and off time is. People afk to bazaar and 15 bazaars or less is a clear sign of needing to merge. Badly.

Server merges are needed badly. If we don't see one in a month or two it'll probably be time for me to leave this game behind.

That's my point, some things will be better with a merge, some things will be worse, which do you really choose? No merge which means less people to do things with, or merge and have massive server clutter of people and congestion? There is a good and bad to it no matter how you look at it.
