It is clear that gear changes are minimal. Some special gear is uncraftable. Some unsellable. Prices are deflated. Item slots change. Market is pretty much the same.

I don't see a problem. BTW Beta will not reveal all. There are many changes between Beta and AAR.

The server problem is real. If not enough people are playing at one time then many things become impossible to do. That could kill the player base. Too much emphasis of multiplayer tasks is a problem now. No one likes to yel for two days in Ul'dah for a party. Right now I can't get anyone to do Caravan. And the last few runs at Atmos had only a few people show up. Who wants to wait 8 hours for the players to come on-line. Yes. Regional servers may kill the game. And Multiple isolated servers is already a problem.
