Data Centers/World Locations Info from the LIVE Letter

How can we even compromise with this:

- Only one data center in Japan that everyone goes into, No segregation, but may experiences alot of lag for users that are far away.

-Multiple Data Centers across the world, which a person can go to the closest data center, little to no lag at all, however There is a possibility of segregation.

So the question becomes: Do you want lag with no Segregation? or Do you want no Lag with segregation?

I think most of us were under the impression that we would transmit data to the nearest data center rather then the data centers being tied to a specific world. I was hoping for that model rather then this.

Kinda like FFXI does, but we know we're not supposed to want XIV to be like XI in any way >.>
