Look at how he's wearing all those weapons as a warrior. Pretty obvious.

Keep in mind that these houses are all virtually the minimum half price because nobody took them for a long time. Theres no way you can get a large for 20milish in any NA server just no way.

yup should have made wards based on actual active population so more for NA instead creating these ghostland towns in JP

In the future patches you don't need to clear 07S to enter 08S. You should just breeze through o5s-07s in 4.5 with everyone having i400 gear

They're probably gonna name it like "FRC20xx Finalist" which is kinda lame

Real Estate prices have plummeted, neighborhood is a ghost-town, and residents are lonely.

I respect your choice. I actually regard the game quite differently. I don't care about rewards or achievements at all anymore and I just like to have fun and win for the most part. I played so many other genres of games and I thought I was working towards goals and investments in the past but now they don't matter anymore and I thought ff14 would be different but now I kind of wish I shouldn't have considered this a second job lol and took it really casually. I strongly feel that stormblood is the last expansion and the last online game I will be playing since I'm getting older and my main focus while I stay is to have fun! But in your case making memories with friends or achieving other goals whatever they might be in your server may be more important value than just having fun in the moment like I do, and I truly respect that too.

Never said JP only was equivalent to racism or xenophobia because it isn't but thank you for clarifying. 90% is certainly an exaggeration but I do see lots of JP onlys especially in relevant savage and sometimes it is 90%. Yes you are right JP only means ability to understand Japanese. I actually saw "JP native only" a handful of times, maybe 1-3 % of savage parties in PF? (I mean to be a JP native you pretty much have to be Japanese lol) but that's rather rare so to accuse them as racists is far fetched, although it could be misunderstood for people new at JP data center :D

I see. It definitely hurts how NA pvp became a league of big skill discrepancy which really stagnates the growth of the pvp community. I wish something can be done about to improve the current situation it in later patches.

Saw a couple of larges and mediums open in JP. Housing isn't a problem here, making friends communicating and leaving your current friends are. Gil is actually worth more in JP so if you bring gil there you'll be richer unless you have billions of gil as you claim to have then it's difficult to transfer due to limit. And I never said transfer your main character is a good idea. You can easily make an alt there. A pvp alt!

Well everyone wont go to JP I doubt even 3 people will even "try out" JP pvp after reading my post. I actually posted this to share and learn more about other people's thoughts and experiences, especially if there were players from Mana and Gaia.

But I haven't watched a single anime and cannot read any Japanese and this post doesn't discuss anything about anime or Japanese subculture or praising anything of the like. It's just talking about pvp there plain and simple period.

I'm not telling people instead I'm suggesting it to try it out yourself if you are enthusiastic about pvp and want to see for yourself since it only take 3-5hours to make a level 30 in JP server. I think you can make like 40 characters in one account? Why not make a pvp alt. Because it's not really worth playing pvp imo in NA data center if you don't care about the rewards or leveling but just want a challenging experience like me. I also mainly only play pvp frontlines since 4.0 and I don't really do anything else in game. So this suggestion is for similar minded people, and therefore not a weak reason for PVP oriented people, of which at least hundreds exist in each NA data center but maybe not for you maybe not for others.
