I'm not sure if it's really being -made- to RP but there's always just a sense of fun to it.
I love to read and so when I hear about a good narrative I just want to know more. It's so easy to do that with some FFXIV RPers. People start their stories in public or in private. Sometimes their private stories leak out to more people than originally intended. Some times the stories are "trivial" but more times than not they're well-written and important. Being the one at the bar, just listening to what's going on... Makes you feel almost like one of the those guys at a bar just listening to old-timers' stories.
