But I'm also acutely aware of the "low-class crass" trope. More often than not, if every other word that comes out of a character's mouth is "fuck," they probably fit that description. That's not necessarily a bad thing, and I've found that it's usually the player's intention in the first place. I simply think that the game has given us a number of colorful alternatives as well as templates for everyday Eorzean speech, and I find it far more immersive to use those.Ave uses swive as well
Obviously, I don't go around telling people how to roleplay - ask Virella or Meyla, Â as I've RPed with them on several occasions, and they both have characters who use "fuck" as if they were in a Tarantino film.
But yeah, Ave drops the f-bombs 24/7, and worse. Never had anyone bring up issues with it though. In truth, I do feel Ala Mhigan characters get away with it easier though, seeming well, eh, the crudeness sort of fits them. Virella on the other hand doesn't curse at all.
There's a time and place for having characters curse, and it massively depends onto what type of character you roleplay as well.
