They made like 15-20 free weekend servers for nearly like every region… What were they expecting a mass influx of 100k? I get they over projected due to the launch date and high queue times…
Literally been on a server where all i can do is farm crafting mats and do a faction quests… No OPR, no War, no Invasions, no Expeditions, and no elite chest runs.
Some of the small servers are quite healthy with great communities - I would argue that Pyrallis is one of the best servers to play on. We are starting to see a noticeable number of people transferring back from high population servers.
What is needed is Scaling so that people can play the game regardless of population level.
Same with Yaxche… we have all grown to be a great community. Invasions are always full and majority of them won. Granted we do not have a ton of wars because everyone loves the town owners we have. Our company owning 2 of them. We all come together for OPR. Trading is still going good and farming is easier since it is lower pop… Now we have no idea what the atmosphere of Vahalla will be.
