    Hope more games go the route of a "megaserver". Don't know if that's the real case here but seems to be better in the end. Glad TRION is doing this, makes people who are currently playing able to get in and get things done with more population options.

    I'm actually surprised they didn't do this sooner.  Oh well, it went f2p for a reason.

    even if the reason is underpopulation, i think its a step forward

    More MMOs need to implement layering instead of separating people by servers. At least Rift took the lead in offering free transfers so people could fix this underpopulated servers themselves.

    Having 20-50 servers is the most stupid idea in mm history. Not a single mmo I have played has extremely populated servers and the reality is they require much fewer servers.

     

    You must be new to MMORPG then, overpopulation used to be a huge issue. I do agree with you that most games don't merge fast enough. As a game matures it loses players and you need fewer servers. Rift has been dying for quite some time, they should have merged quite a while ago. WoW should have merged a bunch of their servers already too.

    They have/are.
