Indeed so! As I said, there is nothing wrong with it in general, but I have a feeling that in due time, it may close up more and more until the only role-play found is in FC's or LS's.
There are a lot of players on Balmung who are NOT role-players. Know what I do? I role-play with them anyway. I don't care if they acknowledge it or not. Why close off the atmosphere for potential RP on the basis of not trying?
Going off to do a quest? Try saying 'hello' to someone on the road! I've made numerous friends this way!
There is no right or wrong, only preferences. I wanted to see whether we all could push for RP outside of Ul'Dah for the sake of getting people to feel inspired again. SO many people have complained about having 'concepts' that they can't implement because 'there aren't RPers there'.
I say bollocks (anyone can make anything work). I just wish I could see more Gridanian and Limsa Lominsa RP, so I'm going to be trying to push it in the coming months!
That's all I can do for the community: offer options.
