Howdy, Folks! Black Hat here!
I've said it before and I'll say it again, Gilgamesh struggles for many reasons but RP is not dead, nor dying!
One of the biggest factors on Gilgamesh is that it's a shared server. Balmung is (almost) exclusively roleplaying. Gilgamesh is RP/PvE. Check out the FC registry on Lodestone, over 2/3s the FCs on Gilgamesh are not RP or are light RP. That makes Open World hard to work with. It's like being a stranger in a foreign land, people may be friendly but they're just not what you were expecting.
Still, there's a lot of RP going on and people like myself are trying very hard to bring it to you. We all have lives outside the game and sometimes getting the fire burning brightly enough to be noticed takes extra time. Don't be discouraged.
As to Driftwood Coast, I wish those who left the best. It's hard not to be saddened when people you know quit but it's what they want to do and I hope whatever they do next makes them happy. Cause playing a game is all about the enjoyment.
Hope that helps!
Cheers!

What a colossal waste of time and energy.
