I don't think I'm being too unrealistic in the end result. You're talking about major political upheaval across the entire game. You're going to upset the balance of every island. While I agree that some upheaval may be needed, this kind of forced upheaval is not the way to go. I think you'd really have better luck just closing most of the islands, and starting over.
I disagree. Most of the actions taken thus far have roughly been Devs picking off realms, and telling players to adapt. That pissed off players, because they had little say in it. One couldn't talk the monsters into not invading, or the glaciers into not moving. Move continents close to each other, and players have 100% of the say in what happens.
