Two pals playing the game on the same server can run into each other on the overworld, while players on separate servers will run into each other less frequently.
For MMORPG newbies that just want to play the game, pick the server or data center your friends play on for a better experience.
Your choice of data center will impact your experience in Final Fantasy XIV as much as your specific server will.
Certain multiplayer features in Final Fantasy XIV are data center-wide and not server-wide, such as the Duty Finder and Party Finder.
