The issue is that people will migrate to the most populated area in search for people to play with, and this is no different than country people moving into big towns in search of jobs. I'm currently on balmung since 2.0 (when it was still open) but realistically speaking, why should I even bother to move to an objectively less populated server and risk to not find any people to play with? Yeah, there's the world wide PF but it would be like playing a lobby based mmo rather than a supposedly MASSIVE online game.

The saddest part is that, SE will probably never bother fixing or making supposedly megaservers, because this transfer economy is quite lucrative for them and since a lot of players move to more populated ones, that's 20 bucks for each people who moves. And it's not even that shady or anything: it's literally a service they're providing and that's it. We decide to move and all they do is give us the possibility, but unfortunately, this will never end until we might get server merges or something else.

And if I have to be honest, why would I fix something that is broken when I can gain a profit from how broken it is ("cough" story lock and jumping potion "cough")
