They could, but popular vote was against megaservers. I'm torn between the good and the bad here. Also I wonder if both servers still are in California.

The popular vote should be irrelevant considering people didn't understand the options available. They saw "one server" and thought "oh gently caress that, I'll be waiting 2 hours a day to play the game".

If only this game was done like it should had. After all, they had someone figure people want to spend $100 per character after purchase.

I was willing to forgive mostly everything about how they turned this into a generic theme park, but now they're loving with the server structure and business model beyond repair.

So, if I understand correctly, the main channel is for the territorial PVP poo poo
secondary channels are just mirrors of the main channel

but they're all separate servers, they just call them channels, right? It isn't taxing the main server's hardware? Is there any reason to do two servers when they can scale up/scale down at will?

No, they are channels on same server, i.e. world instances. That's not a novel concept. Reason to do two servers, for devs, is to geographically separate the servers for better coverage, or to dilute the turbospergs/server concentration.

How does their server handle so many players? They have 300,000 sales across NA/EU (mostly NA I'd imagine)

So divide 175,000-200,000/2 and you're looking at a metric poo poo ton of players at peak hours.

There has to be some trickery at play here. Especially with their combat model and NPC systems at play.

They'll be lucky to have 10% of the player base log in at the same time, which checks out to 7.5k/server on equal split.

I'll love my dead gay cat, no matter how bad it is

I mean, in theory, I will love it, except I won't be using the cash shop when it's not free money anymore. The cat food costs cash too right? Hope kitty likes starving to death.

This trailer shouldn't have shocked anyone, foreign devs make super bizarre choices to appear culturally relevant in the NA market.

It's like having a game trailer voiced by George W Bush. "AMERICA LIKE GEORGE BUSH RIGHT? HAVE HIM DO VOICE."

Looking forward to linking up with my usual terrible MMO goon crew regardless in BDO.
