Because JP, NA and EU are the only regions in the world. Where the hell is everyone else gonna go?

09-04-2013, 12:09 AMSaccharinI assumed that legacy servers would be full so rolled on a non-legacy for no server queues 'lol' so went to Moogle during beta phase 4 and well that back fired on me. Non-legacy are just as busy, if fact I'd say the same as legacy servers. There just aren't enough servers for the sheer amount of people and SE had NO servers ready to be brought online if needed. Poor planning on SE's part and this is their second (third if you count 1.0 and 2.0 as seperate) MMO launch and they have experiences of all other MMO launches from other companies too.Quote:

Please, don't necro this. As far as the discussion, region-locking is really not something I'd go for. The reason why I said this is, what if an NA/EU person went to go study in Japan? Would you deny them playing with their friends in between classes and sightseeing? I did this this past summer, and the stressball that is studying abroad was eased by being able to play with my friends. Thing is, over there you can't access regular hulu, crunchyroll, or even google without it auto switching to the Japanese site (or not being available at all). So, yeah, region/IP locking? Not a good idea.
