I feel like you're building yourself a wall of denial.

Here's what I want you to look at: (from that interview)

G: How is the population balance between servers looking like at the moment? Did the incentives provided with the release of Stormblood manage to alleviate the issues in large servers like Balmung, or there is more work to be done?

NY: Following our initiatives to address the imbalance in realm populations, it looks like we are starting to see a great deal of active players spread out through each world. While we feel these initiatives may have caused inconvenience to some players, on a wider scale they have been very effective—this is thanks to the cooperation of you, the players.

We still are analyzing not only the concurrent number of users in each world but also the number of players per level, in addition to daily average users. As we continue monitoring the situation, we will also consider changing the designations for congested worlds and preferred worlds in the future.


There was another interview that also addressed the same issue in regards to the now unlocked Gilgamesh and Yoshida had brought up that their methods were working. To sum this all up, they're going to keep using this method until Balmung's no longer overcrowded.


You can stop fishing for "hopeful" answers--they will lead you with false hope to nowhere.
