I mean this has nothing to do with OCE being a small server, you always have to expect that a smaller growing data centre is going to have trouble running older content , but it’s not like something like aether struggles with eureka and Bozja in the slightest and materia is growing albeit slowly
You will forgive me for being cynical, but I am seeing a lot of players who have left Materia, utterly fed up to the back teeth with that 2hr window ( NEWSFLASH people play at all hours and want to get stuff done then, not hours later ), the MB is to put it bluntly, usuriously expensive because you have zero or close to zero crafters.

Whether you realise it or not, Materia is slowly losing players. Until SE can

1. Get SEA onboard

2. Work on attaining critical mass , encouraging people to xfer MAINS, not roll new alts...

.......Materia is a failure.

When I want to run a dungeon I want to run it soon...not wait till 6pm - 8pm and then have to wait for the following day.

PASS.

"Older content'? Wut?

I had a 3 hour wait on bloody Tower of Zot.
