I'm a fan of epic fantasy and love reading the big world shaking tales of a small cadre of heroes against a larger than life foe, even more so when there's a little humor mixed in.
I've been role playing in MMOs for years and tend to focus on character development, often posting stories alongside my normal roleplay. Lately I've gotten into a little storytelling but I'm sad to say most of what I come up with is small personal tales that don't extend beyond five people at most, nothing far reaching.
In the past I've avoided the game because I have never played Final Fantasy and the lore felt overwhelming but I heard the role play and the community are both amazing and decided to give it a shot. So far I am loving the gameplay so I am not disappointed, I plan to sign up and try to pop my character over to Balmung where all my friends are.
I'll be playing a Hyur Bard but made a few alts for kicks before I discovered naming conventions.
Anyway a few questions:
How open is everyone to a new player in the group?
How easy is it to transfer to Balmung?
Does everyone get really strict on naming conventions?
How far can I get being lore handicapped?
I can only speak for people on the Balmung Server and I can say we are extremely open to a new player in a group. Our server is pretty welcoming with that said though being a slightly out going RPer will help you with your interactions and that so called breaking the ice. Many people love walk ups!
Easy? Well its fairly easy as I've transferred myself. It will cost you some real currency to do so but other then that I had no hiccups.
Naming Conventions are important but I don't think anyone is 'strict' on this rule. As long as your not named "Bunghole66" lol you should be fine (Cloud Strife or variances are odd too).
You can get pretty far being lore handicapped. I'd say as long as your character play's that up some you'll be fine. You'll learn the lore as you go and i'm certain people will help you too!
