I have a question about the servers.

[Leaposte]

Of the three servers available, which one is the closest to North America and which one is the most populated?

[76561198124281101]

Feruccio- Asian region, ex-SGE legacy (Singapore). Most populated one, yet flooded with hella bots. But market is most lively one among all 3 servers, and overall server activity is leaps above Espada& Jilberto. Alive market makes it good to go, especially if you`re going to play solo or nearly solo (small faction of friends). Also the oldest one, which is where most of its population comes from. Exists for years.
Espada - NA region, unoficial T3Fun legacy ( T3fun is technically alive, but in fact ded since november 2020). Way less populated then Feruccio, maybe on par with Jilberto if you count the bots off for both.
Jilberto- EU region (and Russia unoficially) , ex-GEEU legacy. Way less populated then Feruccio, also the newest of 3 (~june 2020 opening). Due to being the newest one, it havent yet met the market satisfaction point, so not everything is widely available. Due to low population and low overall activity- some cash stuff can cost waaaaay more then on Feruccio.

Overall... i doubt that there`s a reason to go Espada\Jilberto if Feruccio` ping is something you can live with. In pure vis it`ll take less F2P grind to get going from zero on Feruccio, sometimes WAY less vis. And especially- way less time , as getting something from MM is always way faster then spending lots of time broading. Yet if you`re feeling massively P2W...you`ll still get nearly the same, i think. Like, you`ll be able to sell your stuff for a higher price on Jilb\Espada due to deficite, but you`ll have to spend more vis on other stuff.

IMC just do not care that much about Steam version (Compared to KGE\JGE)...and GE in general (compared to ToS). Just compare the overall efforts IMC puts into ToS (just reminding- ToS got their DX11 update recently ,and GE still can`t even have in-built antialiasing in 2021.) to GE. IMC do not care about botting (a few news with a dozen of nicknames banned while there`s a FLOOD of bots everywhere). IMC hardly care about even major problems (it took MONTHS to fix newbie questing).
And even KGE is suffering from a massive balance problems (mainly with newest chars, as IMC is greedy enough to boost the selling of new chars by making then OP), less often content patches (with only "good" point being a better KGE announces on monthly -bimonthly base), and IMC losing the course in which they want the game to progress.

And is there a lot of lag from the US if you play on the Feruccio server?

Honestly I don't care if the game is pay to win because I don't plan to spend money on it, I'll just play it until it's no longer fun for me. Mostly because I'm curious to try an old school mmorpg with interesting mechanics.
