And more datacenters in europe means less datacenters in NA, so they would save some money there
I've already paid for 180 days and won't be unsubbing, i experience none of these lag issues that other "EU" players keep talking about and i just have basic ADSL, the only "aoes" i get hit by when out of the circle are the same ones that east coast players get hit with too due to the server position checks that are hard coded in to the game, which would result in me still getting hit by them even if i was on an "EU" datacentre in Europe.

Don't forget some ISP's are treating FFXIV like it's a peer-2-peer game and are throttling peoples speeds when sending data back and forth to the servers, i think there's even a dev post about it.
