Hi all
I've been to MMO games bit over 10 years and always loved role-playing, longest sprees being 5 years in a few Neverwinter Nights realms (original NWN) and 3 years in WoW RP guild. I was once interested in Tera enough to buy it and then sadly to notice there wasn't much RP on the european servers and everyone into that seemed to be on one specific american realm which wasn't accessible with the european copy, so it kinda took my interest away. Then tried FF XIV Realm Reborn beta over the weekends and liked it a lot as a game. Now noticing it isn't restricted by continents like Tera and that there seems to be actually some RP around it! So, I have a few questions while purchasing and installing it.
It seems Balmung is the most popular realm, so it'd be good first choice when wanting to RP with main as much as possible? Â Also, I'm not very good with the lore but I guess it has to be learned on the way as every FF game is so different anyway, only things like Chocobos and some other staying the same ofcourse. ^_^ Â Is there much RP going on the streets, towns and open world or are they usually events by players at specific time and place? I also guess that RP in english is mostly by players in the US but while times permit there are also some europeans (like maybe me, from Finland) taking part?
