I can't speak to the amount of roleplay on Gilgamesh, but it's oozing out of the crevices of Balmung (totally gross image). The reason who have two to begin with is because some people who were starting 2.0 FFXIV fresh wanted a completely fresh group to start with (not to mention a fresh economy and other non-rp things like that). On the flip side, Balmung (originally Besaid) has been the unofficial RP server for this community since the original iteration of the game. I'd like to think both servers are thriving, though :). As far as sheer volume of RPers, just about any poll or listing of linkshells or members from *this* site is likely to indicate Balmung has more Rping players. This isn't to say Gilgamesh lacks at all in available, quality rp. (This has been a trixy topic in the past, so let's not travel too far down this road, ok err'body : P?) There are also several linkshells (chat channels) on both servers (I believe? Right, you have one, Gilga'?) that people can join just to keep an ear to the ground for rp. Additionally, Square Enix has given us a fancy little button we can click on our free company (guild) information pages to say "this guild does that RP thing!" AND a lot of people put "RPer" in their search comment to make it easier to tell who is and isn't an RPer.
Forgive my boldness, but I'm going to go ahead and say of the more recent MMOs floating around, FFXIV has the most staying power in terms of PvE. One of my biggest problems with trying to make time to RP in the game right now is that I just kind of want to play the game itself : P. I've heard many others agree with the sentiment. I've also unfortunately heard that the PvP needs a lot of work, but I haven't tried it.
All that said, welcome to both the site and hopefully~ the game! If you haven't looked through them already, you may want to check out some of the threads in the welcome section :)
