Right now I'm under this distinct impression that there is going to be absolutely no shortage of "new" new people to interact with. Just because a server is a non-Legacy server doesn't discount the fact that some veterans might opt to migrate to a new server for their chance to mad rush the coveted honor of "first"-ing any number of its unclaimed titles and achievements. The benefits of starting on a non-Legacy might be so negligible that you might probably wish you'd have just started out on Balmung to begin with. Having played MMOs that have released and grown to the point of requiring new servers, I can say the serenity of a server that's had a slight exodus is really nice at times when I think just how much chaos is ensuing on the new world while I drink my mulled tea and munch on my honey muffin at the local tavern. What? No flying hobbits landing on my table today? How nice. *sip*
