Content getting harder to pop

this could be conjecture but i did a player search for "world" and found 193 members for my server. which is very low. now obv EU is comprised of multiple servers, but this is very low player count in general

199 on my world (people in NA will just barely be waking up if they aren't at work). This does not count people in duties and most people who play the game are logged in to do a duty since 99% of content is instanced.

Another thing to note is that this is concurrent players, which is the amount of players logged in right now. In one hour, many of those players will have logged out and been replaced by another 199 players. Concurrent means that if there are 2000 total players per month, only 200 of them play at any given moment in time, for example.

I imagine the actual cap for each world is only several thousand. That might not seem a lot for a game with hundreds of thousands of players but that's why there are 11 data centers with 85 worlds which by my estimate could support no more than half the active playerbase at any moment in time, which is fine because they will not all login at once and they can do an AFK timer at expansion launches.

You should just quit forever tbh. Based on your post history, you're very unhappy. Why force yourself to do something you don't enjoy?
