Everyone there will not be a bunch of level 50's roaming around. You would be surprised at how many people never achieved 1 level 50 job or only have 1 or 2 level 50 jobs. I personally played for about a year in 1.0 and only got to level 40ish, but I am scrapping that character and starting a brand new one. I was also on the Masamune server and didn't RP so I am one of the many who will still be very new to the RP community there.Â
Also the Heroes of Light then you posted about is kind of a non-existent problem as the lore indicates that no one really knows what happened that night and the Heroes of Light do not know that they are the Heroes of Light as their have fuzzy memory syndrome. So you don't have to worry about anyone hoarding a title over your head like that.Â
Now Gilgamesh was not too bad from what I saw during beta as the community there seemed to be pretty decent, but then again I didn't really see any RP going on as it was beta. Though I do remember seeing Dogberry running around with a group in Thanalan and RPing and I just stalked them for like 45mins :3. I am sure they saw me as its hard to be a Roegadyn hiding in the bushesÂ
Yes, yes. I'm aware that not everyone, if most people, have 50's maxed in all categories. They -do- exist as a minority, and I said it wasn't really a 'flaw' so much as something to take note of.
In truth, Legacy status isn't much of a flaw. But it can be a little off-putting if only because it'd be a little harder to get something going, if you can't find something you're interested in. Balmung -will- have a smaller population, I think?

The game wasn't doing so good in 1.0, hence the reboot, so many people didn't actually play that long. Add to this that I'm planning to start over with a new character. So I might be technically legacy, but I'm going to be rubbing elbow with the rest of the new players.
Hopefully you can find a home! If nothing else, if Balmung ends up being our destination, perhaps we can find one together! Or make one!
Still, for now, I remain in the neutral position. But all of this information is helping, and thanks to all so far!
