    Which Do You Prefer?A High or Low Population World (Server)?

    Well I basically have been hopping back and forth to Fabul and Cornelia.One a low population server and one a high population server.I'm just wondering which you guys would prefer,I at first stuck with Cornelia seeing there is a bigger community to socialize with but then I read a post on Fabul talking about how the community is much smaller but thats what makes people get to make a name for themselves more easily and lets everybody know each other easier.

    Medium, actually.

    Since this game isn't PvP based, there isn't really an advantage to a high-pop server. In fact, I think it just creates more competition.

    Low pop servers do make it hard to find others to interact with, however. No one wants to play in a ghost town.

    I picked Besaid because it's the unofficial NA RP server, and I knew there would be a good, mature, English speaking community to interact with. I felt that would be the best home for my LS, and assure its longevity.

    Medium.

    Plenty of players to group with, market wards are full of gear and materials as well as customers, just enough player lag to make it feel busy while not killing my game experience.

    Medium, and not some cluster-F of lagspikes wherever i go.

    Hence why i like Wutai, medium population (used to be pretty much full)
    But, i still see many players around thats been there since Release or even since Beta.

    Low.

    Less competition for NMs and grind mobs (well this was the case for dobs pre-patch)

    I prefer the low side of high, or the high side of medium. Seems to be just about right.

    difficult discussion...

    Some have a big pc powerful and others weak, some have a good connection and the other not.

    So the population level, it is better to server several times, especially for events

    high, because when the game goes on for a while it drops to medium while the others drop to super low.

    I prefer low: as stated before, less overall "competition" for NM's, grindy spots etc, and more personal interaction with the individual players.
