Comparing this situation to the Wyrmrest/Moon Guard situation is not accurate because this game lacks something that WoW has, and that's RP tags.
WoW actively directed the entire population to places. You only have grass roots movements that I do hope are successful, but it's just not the same.
If FFXIV decides to slap an RP tag on a low pop/new server that's where people will go. Everyone. Balmung included. It may take a while but people will migrate. ESPECIALLY if they offer a transfer of housing too.
But I honestly think everyone that puts RP as their primary reason for playing the game would go even if they have to start without a house and can only take what their characters/retainers can bring.
