Cloud DC Proves Cross-Region Travel is OK

[Atelier-Bagur]

DC travel is having an increasingly negative impact on the game. It shouldn't be expanded into more regions, it should be disabled.

I think servers in general need to be condensed into mega servers like in ESO. This is the ideal although the tech and structure in FFXIV's case prevents them from doing something this major. I think its really odd to have these isolated communities in an MMO and its no wonder why the genre feels stagnated at times.

No thanks.

Yeah it's so much better to have one giant faceless blob of glorified NPCs where you never see the same person twice and nobody interacts with anyone ever. That was such a blast to see happen in WoW I'm sure it would be wonderful here.

And before someone says "but FFXIV is already like that!"

No, it isn't, at all. If you think it is that's a you problem. Learn some social skills.

No thanks.

Welcome to IRL where you have your usual group of friends but you still can see and interact with strangers on a daily basis.

I think its really telling how some people in this thread really express the idea that an MMO community should be limiting rather than be expanding. Its as if they're not confident in their own little communities somehow

You know what's ruining this game? Too many servers. Again there's a tech reason due to this game's server infrastructure but imagine if they worked on them. No more need to DC travel to get to certain groups or have better queues for content, you can also interact and hang out with other people from other parts of the world and make the auto-translate feature that so many people have forgotten actually useful.

This is the ideal in a <ahem> A MASSIVELY MULTIPLAER ONLINE ROLE PLAYING GAME.

You have absolutely no idea what you're talking about.
