I currently am on balmung, and I am trying to get back into the game tho slightly annoyed as my boyfriend cannot come with. The one big thing I loved about Balmung tho is how alive the server felt, with all the people roleplaying it made the world feel alive. Is that something that can be said for Mateus to any degree?

Also I really enjoy crafting and I found it not that rewarding in Balmung, is it more rewarding on Mateus? In other words how is the market board.
