reconsider EU DC split

If that graph is true, why we have less servers than any other datacenter, if we have more players than any other datacenter?

The reason Chaos is the most popular data center is because EU only has one data center, the NA players are split between two data centers, by combining Aether and Primal you'd have about 60k more players than on Chaos currently, and the Japanese player base is likewise split between three data centers.

Edit: Forgot Crystal was on the graph too, that makes it so there's about 140k more NA players than EU.

So Chaos was not most populated DC if you combine NA DC after all. Eu have 120k players and na 263 / 2 = 131.5k each. Aether probably more because they have 13 servers into one DC.

Yeah, that's it, I think Aether has always been more popular than Primal mostly due to Balmung and now Mateus as well and there being no alternative RP servers on Primal, previously you could count Gilgamesh in that with how it was THE raiding server for quite a while in HW before they added the crossworld party finder. Though even then Primal hasn't lagged that far behind.
