.....Wait....so...they're going to make a serious game with serious intent/lore/story based off of a series of stories written by an author who's intent for many or all of them was satire? .-.
On the original topic, I've been going over what my character's family would be called. They're the typical corrupt but wealthy merchant family from Ul'dah. As many of ya'll other MG refugees mentioned, I was suuuuuper hesitant to use the term "noble" because of how...incorrectly it's been done/referenced/used in the game/server I spent most of my time playing. But it's nice to know I'm not flinging a word around incorrectly to explain her family's...stature.Â
Then again it doesn't really apply to her since she's been disowned so all I really use it for is to OOCly explain what her family was on my wiki. >>
Lastly, on the note of a LS to help organize "noblity" roleplay and possibly public or large grouped intrigue and higher society political battles/alliances/ect, I totally support that idea. While I've never been good at roleplaying one of the scheming royals (or had a character that could), I've been part of some larger scale "public knowledge" ones that were super enjoyable to watch and acknowledge from a distance. It really sorta adds immersion to me. We have the thugs and bad-doer's and refugees and poor folk, we have the adventurers, the soldiers, the merchants and the heros, but it really completes the world and environment when there's also really good "nobility" roleplay that is logical and works. Completes the circle, you know?
