Ability to switch servers!

[Seif]

Sure my character isn't all lvl 50s but I already re-rolled my character to play to this point with the new gameplay balances. I've already played my character more than most single player games last and I'm attached to him.

Also I probably would change servers to a less dead one if I could BUT I know for sure my boyfriend would never do that. Ever.

XIV is the first game he has played and there's no chance he'd ever let his progress go to waste. There's no way I could leave him on a separate server.

It's no big secret most players have left the game. I think it would be reasonable for SE to let us at least play together.
So many aspects of the game are not working due to the low population. The economy is terrible, there never is items on sale you're looking for and parties just don't happen so right out of the bat that's 70% of the entire game I don't have access to. We're talking about good quality content already in the game here.

When I've managed to be in a party or a full behest the gameplay is A LOT better. Playing together is why we play MMOS in the first place. It's weird that we have this completely superficial rule that keeps us apart.



LET ME AT LEAST PAY FOR A SERVER CHANGE!! For Twelwe's sake I'm offering free money here SE!

oh and yes I know that other guy asked for a server switch ability too. But I think his reasons for it are just a bit too distracting to have any real discussion about the feature itself.

this would cause most players to move to certain fixed servers and leave many servers more dead than they are now and a few really populated.

And what's wrong with that?
I'd much rather be on a high pop server than being stuck with the situation of them all being low pop. The game design just wasn't built around this kind of lack of players.

Smaller server!? That's better for me I don't like crowded servers lol

See? We all have our own preferences but the ability to choose ourselves would let everybody play on the kind of server they like to play in. It's a win-win situation for everyone.

Yeah I don't agree with server transfers at all. IMO World of Warcraft really effed up when they added all those paid services like changing your name and server transfer. Make it fun for a few rich people, whilst ruining everybody else's servers and causing confusion. Not to mention Even if you're rich you can't fix a dead server. And killing servers is bad. The community would have their head for that.
