You complain about data centers segregating the community -- and yet all XI ever did was segregate the community based on content, level caps, what job you were, what sub job you did not have, time of updates, etc. The list continues endlessly because XI was poorly planned -- including the server infrastructure of XI.

This is FANTASTIC news about data centers.

PS:
This. FFXIV is supposed to be a 2010.. err 2013 game. And regional servers, data center or wheaver you want to call them,
is one of the most important standard in the game, more than interface, jump etc. imho.
