    Apparently dynamis is just a placeholder for alt accounts and venues. I see more pfs for venues than for running content. And dynamis has the numbers but they go elsewhere, whoch is weird. Like why make an account on a server you're not even going to play on? The way people operate in this game makes no sense to me.

    The OP said why.

    You're completely barred from engaging in combat activities that require a party because of the sheer, complete lack of players in the pool to draw from.

    It's a catch-22. The solution is more people should simply be on Dynamis. But Dynamis is dead. So everybody on Dynamis server hops to Crystal / Aether to have a pool to draw from for content. Thereby insisting Dynamis stays dead.

    You want to see why? This is why. This content, as of this post, is 5 days old.

    My friends are on Midgardsormr. I only go back to my home server to refresh my house and check my retainers. Dynamis is a bedroom community, a safety valve that SE keeps released so they can offer unsuspecting players the chance to get an easy housing plot, and newbies the chance to get the "dead 2010s freemium MMO" experience. It's no different than the "free land in Siberia" deals that Russia likes to offer the gullible. Sure, you can take it, but good luck actually doing anything with it.

    It sucks because I like crafting, I like being a gil goblin but I can't reasonably justify doing it if taking a retainer trip means having to schedule an early-morning DC transfer and log off session just so I'm not stuck on the outside looking in as my friends play. It would be more tolerable if everyone else wasn't on Aether, Balmung, or Mateus. What makes it worse is one of the best community tools to manage this, Waitingway, is now gone because the dev has decided he's had enough of FFXIV, too.

    I would lose my house and drop money to server transfer to Midgardsormr if I could, but I'm locked out of that, too. The DC system and SE's stubborn refusal to admit that the status quo is intolerable to anyone outside of Aether has become the defining feature of this game to me since it's functionally split it in half.

    Some players are housing mains, and transferring is free along with you can make an alt fast then grind up enough to form an FC and start bidding after 1 month, then have zero competition for most housing plots in all empty wards. If anyone wanted to dedicate a new studio for gpose or even nightclub venues, they can start up pretty fast compared to how often other NA DC are Congested so it's the ideal place for socialization if you're not into raiding.
