For Zhi, she's poor and beyond that -- she doesn't really consider the outside world as a legit existence beyond places she understands in relation to Limsa. Limsa is her world. Why leave when she'd have zero influence and have to start from scratch in an unknown place, with unknown people and unknown rules?
For non-adventurers, presumably the character has a job and a life in the city. I mean, I only visit other cities irl when I'm on vacation and when I have the money to leave. The rest of the time I stay in my local area doing my thing.
And to me, Limsa isn't quite there yet. I think it could be a lot more interconnected rp wise, have larger stories going on. That's where I've chosen to put myself, and that's what I've chosen to try and do. I think it's always a good thing to spread out and try to buff up rp in other areas, but part of the reason for why people don't, I think, is limited time. If you're rping one thing in one area, you're going to likely be missing out on another rp thing in another area. Some people are fairly tied up in stories in one area and want to rp out those stories with those people in that area for the time it is going on. If you've only got a few hours every day to be in game rping, well, those are the choices you have to make. It takes time and effort to draw people into other areas for rp, to build the sort of backstory (icly -- characters with history together are going to be more likely to play together) that will make people continuously come back with intent.
