I don't care about the rewards or incentives. If they increased the gil limitation for transfers to non-preferred worlds I would consider transferring. I worry about the economies of the preferred worlds, and I think some of them will turn back into ghost towns after the hype dies down. It's a pain to sell my house on Balmung and then reinvest all of my gil into items to resell because the prices on tiny servers seem to all be in Zimbabwean dollars. At the same time if I moved to a mid-pop world where the prices are less crazy, I'd still have to turn my money into items to resell to get past the gil limitation.

Balmung is a bit too crowded for me whenever there's a new patch. Once we get a bit deeper in, though, it's really nice. I love seeing people out in the world. With all of the technical issues we've been having, I doubt that I will be able to pick up a new house or apartment in Shirogane. I fully expect to 90k upon entering the zone and then to sit in a 2 hour queue.
