New Realms - but no fix?

[ArkhamNative]

These details may come in a Producer's Letter soon. SE knows that existing worlds are beyond capacity and that simply adding more won't fix that. Maybe they're hoping some players will reroll, but surely that won't be enough.

SE has done organized world transfers twice for FFXIV already (once to merge worlds, once to cross data centers). Plus FFXI held new world emigration applications when it was growing, nearly 10 years ago. I'm not sure how SE handle it this time, so soon after launch, but this problem has also split friends, guilds and family members across worlds and I would like to see a solution that lets them play together as they intended.

Time travel would have been cool. Sadly, while I love Fezzes and Bow ties, I've got to admit that I used things like 300 and 1200 baud modems, Sprintnet, and telnet instead of Sonic Screwdrivers, Phone Boxes, Phone Booths, or Skynet.

'Tis true. I was also using the worldwide network of DARPA back in the late '80s. Mostly email and USENET (worldwide forums), but there were quite a few multiplayer games to keep people entertained. Small world. Even smaller if you knew things called ngp and ccwf.

Add:

and yes, who uses the term 'toon' anyways, unless of course the only mmo you have played is WoW, which in that case i pity you.

Be Nice. Success means FF14 will see a lot of "toon", "realm", "rez", etc. Fear not. All will be assimilated eventually. (^_–) ☆
