Looking to possibly come back

Hey guys! I am a wow player have been since 2009. I tried ff14 when it relaunched back in the day and played it a bit off and on. I am curious how different is it now? Are there still a bunch of positional requirments and 123 combos?

Dungeons are streamlined to infinity, its always the same. hallway, boss, hallway, boss pattern recolored.
I'm actually sad when I see a dungeon supports trust now, because you know any element of interest has been removed. The way they do dungeons now feels very cookie-cutter

Just DC travel, not that big of a deal.

That's only a band-aid solution since there're a lot of restrictions. However, I see people confusing the game being dead with one specific DC in NA being empty so they have 3 hour queues depending on the content they're queing for, so even with the restrictions if the main issue is the long queues, DC travel is a simple solution until SE addresses the issue (if ever), and fuses Dynamis with the more populated DCs.

I mean, its a two sided sword. DC travel was created so they could spread the population out and take the load off more populated servers and so people can be anywhere and still raid with friends/statics with no restrictions.

On the other hand, people make characters on other DC's and then just live on the more populated ones. Damned if you do, damned if you don't scenario honestly.

The best answer is to just naturally have DF/PF work across all data centers, but that likely isn't possible.

I know nothing about programming, but I Imagine is something very difficult to do, or maybe they just don't want to bother. I play Dead by Daylight, and when the game start to get really popular people asked for dedicaded servers, and their response was that it was IMPOSSIBLE to add this feature without writing the game from scratch. A couple of years later dedicated servers were magically announced, so you never know their real reason.

I'm guessing fusing Dynamis with other DC would be easier.

I can take a fairly easy guess on why its probably not feasible. The data centers are obviously each their own physical hosts machines since we already know that SE does host their own physical servers. The "servers" within each DC are likely a virtual cluster. The fact that you have to log out to DC travel and have your character copied over compared to how you can swap servers while still logged into the game and have cross server participation tells me at least that much.

Granted, I have no idea what the deeper nuances of their systems look like, and while I'm a network admin and not a sys admin, my general experience with server hardware tells me that cross play between DC's is likely not possible.
