Although people were a lot more welcoming and warm on Hyperion, probably since it's server that is a lot less busy and old... People were very kind to new players. On Balmung people just tend to keep to themselves.
However, the RP is literally everywhere. And no RMT spamm.
Do you mean they would not be very welcoming if I am RPing with them and I am a little new still on the rules of FFXIV RP? (for example how to talk OOC or IC and such)
Or do you mean to just new people in general? Meaning if I am a lv 12 newbie and I want to RP they will just ignore me thinking I am not a serious player?
But either way thanks for the input!
Not at all, people seem very open to start RP with anyone, especially in fast food RP places like the quicksands, for the better or worse.. But overall the community is extremely open "do you want to RP?" "Okay let's meet!"Â
You just have to take a look at the connection section of that very forum here...
No, I mean more in general in terms of server welcoming. On Hyperion for example, I stumbled on several players that actually came to me (OOCly of course, not much RP there), asking if I liked the game, needed any help, had any questions, to a point where I thought they were GMs at first. They added me in their friendlist immediately... I kept talking a lot with one of them about classes and the likes with one of them, over the following days.
One day, I got two of them in a row. They were a little sad to see me telling them I was aiming for Balmung, as they genuinely seemed to care for the good atmosphere and their server in general.
Another one, albeit interested to pull me into his/her FC, offered me to craft me a full set of lvl 34 equipment, with a spare half set of lvl 40. For free, spontaneously. So I kept it as the single thing I still have left from Hyperion...
I have yet to see that on Balmung, though granted, I lost my little green sprout before transferring (I did that around level 45), so there is that too.
