Forced server move from Ragnarok

[AskaRay]

New Zealanders have the same thing... Leaving everyone I had ever known in FF14, seeing my friends list got from 142 people to 0, It was heart breaking, luckily I found a friendly FC on the server I moved to, to help fill the void that was made when I left.

>.> FF14 recommended the EU server when I joined... Why?

Is it because NZ and AUS are part of the EU?

Seriously asking if they're considered part of it, I'm not sure. That's the only reason I could think of to be honest.

In general: no, of course not xD
In terms of games though: yes, they are.

There are 3 major regions for video games, which are Asia (except for China), NA and PAL (Europe, Australia and NZ). Region lock from consoles works with these regions, so I assume Australian players got recommendations to join EU servers based on that concept.

OOOH yeah I frequently forget about region locks.
Thanks
