What will be SE approch about Jeuno II

[Armageddon]

All world is facing the same issue.
Ul'dah as become Jeuno II.

All other cities are ghost town with almost empty Market Ward.

What will SE do about it?
What kind of approche the should take?

This is something every single MMORPG has to deal with. To only way to deal with it is to combine the market wards.

1)You have to be able to search all the market wards worldwide.
2)You have to be able to buy any item from anywhere without having to locate the actual retainer.

There is no other option to fix it at the moment.

However I think when the other city opens up it will become to real Jeuno, so we shouldn't worry too much about it.

Unless it's a Castle Zvahl

i am not sure if its only the market ward problem...

You see in Uldah there are the mines... and those are the best solo/duo/trio grinding spots...
also when i am in Uldah i feel like its way less annoying to leave the city by foot than in LL,
Uldah is also most conveniently located between the other 2.

To fix that you would need address the other things as well.

Also the story line takes you to ul'dah. Much like it did in ffxi with jeuno. Once i can play the game (either pc fixed or ps3 launch) (hoping for pc fix so i can play sooner, owning the game and not being able to play it sucks so much) I was gonna start in gridania. Just my character was going to have a Fire theme. So unsure if I should start in ul'dah instead. Pretty much ima lvl my mage nuking class to unlock the fire based spells and use them on my other classes. i'm a bit of a pyro in mmorpg/ rpg. Like in fable 3 i mainly use fire + magic sword (magic blades are casted and fly to you target) :3

Once Ishgard comes out, everybody will practically be there as opposed to the 3 starting cities.

Many threads about this. Why is it Jeuno II? Why not Aht Urhgan Whitegate II?

Nah, they will stay in Uldah and kill coblins/doblins for easy EXP and more silver/copper than they can carry.

Harder to kill them now though.
I wants moar silvers

I never thought of the Jeuno type of thing to be an issue.. it works good actually.

If everyone is in one city its easier to do things. Once the party is together than you all can teleport to where you have to go.

It seems fine to me, if you have to go to another city to do other things your free to do so.
SO what exactly is the problem of this?
