Universes are awesome. You get to pretty much have independent places sharing data, a purpose, and more. Also Datastores is awesome too, since you can now save and access data anywhere in a universe. (Not tied to players). I could save a string "Chiefwaffles is the best editor" in one server, then at any other time in any other server/game in the universe, I can load that string and nothing will be changed. Also, less lag. Instead of having everything in the same place, which can pose problems and cause lag, you can separate individual pieces of the game and put them in different subplaces, causing less lag.

Before you say "Boohoo, I can't follow my friends", you can. TeleportService has been recently updated to allow: A.) Quick, GUI-less teleporting. We no longer need to have the user confirm it. It's also faster. B.) Teleporting to specific servers is now possible. We can now get the specific server of a specific player and teleport anyone to that specific server.

Overall, Universes, Datastoring, and the new TeleportService allow for some very interesting things.
