there's finals for many people, exams and work commitments people are getting sucked into outside of the game. heck, even I am finding it hard to find game time.
Gotta admit I'm kinda feeling this about gaming in general, but it might just be the fact that I work in QA and have been doing hella overtime as a result, as well as trying to get much, much better than I currently am in Mortal Kombat X. These QBRC combos won't become crispy by themselves.

Pretty sure I can retrace a Kudos post I made about exactly that happening. It's not that hard provided you have a good idea - Might just be you're looking for something that's not in the city (Coeurl Skin, etc.) Also need to escort someone but wouldn't mind a traveling partner. Plenty hooks you can use within the game's very own lore to do that, but it requires a commitment to RPing outside of the cities.
Where this is hard is that there's a couple people on here and off here that are reluctant to the idea of actually doing something while RPing instead of just RPing.
I can understand stuff like, say, exploring Wanderer's Palace IC for various reasons (Nymian artifacts, wanting to trade the tonberries for a Chef's Knife, etc. P.S. I am currently doing this and IIRC I only have one spot left) would require hella planning unless you happen to casually meet a crew of dedicated dungeon delvers who have a death wish. And by hella planning I mean sowing the seed IC to someone I know, then casually encountering someone in Bronze Lake that I know who informed me of more info IC and is interested in going. Barely 2 sessions and we're ready to rock.
That kinda thing does require setup. However a trek to the country side because reasons? 15 minutes you got your set-up. You fail? Determine whether you'd do it alone, or need someone else, or if you want to talk more about it, etc.
I am not saying that such a thing is easy nor that it's common - just that it's feasible and writing it off as folly is exactly that.
