Server merge: Hidden server names.

[Sidious]

Given the number of threads that were made about the server merger topic in under 24 hours, I'd say it's a pretty big issue for SE right now. The last time we saw 1 thread top 500+ replies in this short a time span was when they made the billing announcements. And guess what, SE understood where a lot of people were coming from and decided to give us a discount. If people didn't complain about that, you can bet you'd be paying $13/mo to play right now.

Also, keep in mind that Yoshi-P himself said he decided to release the info early specifically to get player feedback on the matter.

I'd honestly be surprised if they didn't change something.

Don't base your argument on false pretenses. There are a lot of posts, yes, but a TON of those posts are supportive of option 4 or apathetic either way.

As for releasing the server names: No. Not unless they are new server names. The current one have population and community-type connotations associated with them.

Beta had villain names for servers, initial release had town names, moving forward for 2.0 we need to flush out all of the past and start fresh with the server names. I suggest either going back to the beta names or using previous FF protagonist names.

IMO.

I don't really see why that would be a problem with this game.

Well, that's because you're Lindblum. Of course you don't see it from the perspective of someone who has to make a new home in an already established ecosystem.
