If rerolled on the OCE data center id be getting off work between 6-8p server time, and I imagine id have a much easier time. I was just worried about a few things though.

1.) How bad would the lag be? I have great internet, but I live on the east coast.

2.) Is the community big enough yet? I love doing hunts, pvp, and other activities. If theirs not enough players it kind of makes rerolling pointless.

3.) Assuming I got a more typical schedule in 3-5 years, would I be able to transfer my character back over to NA realms?

Thanks for any advice.
The lag would probably be tolerable but not too sure it'd be optimal at all.

The community is extremely small, I wouldnt go there, it's basically a trap because if I remember correctly you are stuck there for 90 days once you transfer. Everything is dead, and there is no DC travel to anywhere else.

You would be able to move back by then yes.

All in all, I would advice agaisnt it because Materia is a datacenter that is basically on life support.
