SAVE MATERIA!

SAVE MATERIA!
The Materia Datacentre is dying. I moved there on day 1 and the population has significantly declined week by week since it opened. Queues take so long people give up and move to party finder. There are very few endgame parties in Party Finder and they take forever to fill, week by week more veteran players like myself get fed up waiting for the population to grow and go back to JP and NA servers.

What happened to Region Travel? when the OCE servers were announced it was alongside the Region Travel announcement and honestly at this point is the only thing that can convince the veteran players still on Materia to remain. Low ping is fantastic but its useless if you just cant find parties to get things done. The worst part is, it hasn't even been mentioned by anyone on the development team, we feel like we just arent on their radar. And unless it is addressed, you will be facing dead servers, its only a matter of time.

SAVE MATERIA - GIVE US REGION TRAVEL!

I have been off for a while, is it actually that bad or is it still a general problem of lower starting playerbase so patch lulls drop deeper than usual

I’m not terribly concerned but I guess it would be nice to actually be able to travel

its not that bad but patch lulls will hit materia harder.
I don't think region travel would "save" Materia either not saying I don't want this feature but if everyone region travels to do roulettes/Duties in another DC then wouldn't that just make materia even worse.

This is not a bug, and also didn't warrant the topic being made in 3 different spots

Materia population is going to stay low for the foreseeable future just purely because it's batch of new servers afters years of established server culture. It could've been in NA and it would still be low pop

Ive never seen a new server in NA take this long to establish a culture

And here I thought you were talking about people who throw tier 3 materia away. <.<'
