"An MMORPG could be completely diffirent from WoW. Just look at games like Dofus, Wizard101 or EVE. But as it is, most of the Western MMOs are trying to succeed by out-WoWing WoW. It's like an army of 10 sports games made about same sports, and barely none about other sports. WoW clone is an accurate description of those games, it manages to convey much information with only two words."

I thought SE would learn from their mistakes and add local servers, but alas... I doubt there will ever be. Playing from Europe feels almost unplayable with 400ms latency.
Well to be honest I never suffered from lag in FFXI and I live in the U.K. Wonder why it's laggy for this one? Or is a lot of people playing?
I am a little curious about this as well.
It's annoying because unlike most games FFXIV waits for server response on every interface action you make. This is why everyone is complaining about the laggy UI.
No lag here either except for UI lag which has nothing to do with server location. I am in EU and everything works smoothly.

All servers are based in Japan I believe.
I read somewhere that their might be "hubs" stationed in NA, but in the end your communicating back and forth with the servers in Japan. Don't know if theirs any truth to that.
I imagine either way, they'll eventually get the lag worked out like they did with XI.
