I think the lack of people grouping up on one server has come from the fact that there hasn't been a very clearly advertised and unified initiative- The attitude has been "You can just transfer in". Gilgamesh was a good attempt but there were several factors along with that server also exploding with people which made it more obscure and harder to find. As you also said, not wanting to use every platform available isn't a good thing, fostering a "Us vs. them" feeling just because Balmung is bigger and more people from Balmung use a certain platform isn't going to help anyone at the end of the day.Â
So it's lead to a situation where people are scattered, and right now what is holding people in this scattered form is the fact that people have now worked hard on their own community bubbles for 1+ years, so they don't immediately want to uproot. This is where I hope NA will eventually see similar benefits to transferring as the EU are sported to get. People do seem to agree with the notion that they have to come together more, so I still think there's plenty of good possibilities to get more unification going even if it means people wont transfer anywhere right this second.
