Give it a year. New datacenters take time to grow. Though perhaps this is also an indication that they shouldn't just make new datacenters, but might also want to consider new servers on each datacenter. I know that they are trying to offset this by having datacenter visit, but I don't think people are listening.

If they want to be on aether, I think people would often rather just be on aether, or if they want shenanigans on Crystal, then they will be on a Crystal server. I do think we needed another data center, but I think they should consider doing new servers on existing datacenters as well. Otherwise when the next expansion comes we may have the same hell all over again. :c

But again, you can't make people do what they don't wanna do. Devs have often tried and slowly failed to herd masses to relieve servers in various games. People stay where they want to stay no matter what.
