Hi 
Welcome to the RPC! Rest assured, whichever server you choose- Gilgamesh or Balmung- you'll be among great people IC and OOC. But don't let the stress of beginning your RP journey on a Legacy server deter you. There will be a LOT of new RPers (and new RPers to FF- like me!) on Balmung...
Choose the one that seems to 'feel' best.
There are several threads discussing the differences, what each has to offer and so on- but it just boils down to this:
BRAND NEW START: Gilgamesh
ACCESS TO EXPERIENCED LOREMASTERS IG: Balmung
That said... this site is rife with lore and regardless of server, the members here are very open and willing to share their accumulated knowledge from Final Fantasy overall & 1.0.
If endgame and monetary issues are a concern, (aka the Legacies having max levels and more gil than newbies, therefore borking the economy)... let that go. The number of Legacies (esp RPing Legacies) is expected to be MUCH less than the newcomers- such that it shouldn't be an issue at all.
Besides, with the level adjustments, total game revamp, and so on... most will want to play the game "all over again"? anyway... hehe
OR just spend more time focusing on the RP than the PvE.
Either way, win for me.
Rock and the crew forming on Gilgamesh have been hard at work building a strong RP community as well.
But I'm biased...
Good luck in your search!!!
