Gilgamesh is more likely to be open, but there's less open world and tavern RP than Balmung. You can always try making a character on whatever server sounds good and transfer later, but that's $18.
I've known more than a few people who hate hate HATE (yes they hate it that much) the game's global cooldown and refuse to ever play, so it pays to see if that sort of thing in and of itself is a turnoff to you.
Its global cooldown?
Yes, it uses a global cooldown system for skills, with some off-GCD skills for each class.
Here's what some of the gameplay looks like using the controller controls.

You'll see that when one skill is used, a bunch of other ones refresh as well.
