The only incentive to get me back to Materia is DC travel.

This is a good point, as an Australian playing on Elemental the timezones that group content is run is a few hours out from when I'd like to personally run it, which is just only mildly inconvenient. I moved to Materia when the servers were new but none of my friends followed so I went back, and nowsdays I hear it's basically dead. If we did get DC travel I'd basically always be on Materia for the ping and small group content, then visit other worlds when I want to play with friends whom I have on JP, OCE and NA, I don't want to have 3 different alts. I would love to see international DC travel.

It's not.
