Hello, there! Â I go by the name of Lance, and I'm here to have a wonderful roleplay experience!
I can say that, without a doubt, Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn is the first MMORPG I've taken -seriously-. Â By no means is it my first MMO, but it's the one that I've put the most time and effort (and plan to continue doing so) in. Â I've played a lot of f2p MMOs, such as Maplestory, Mabinogi, Vindictus, and Dungeon Fighter Online (which is actually another game I've put a lot of time and effort into). Â Most of these failed to hold my attention for any extended period of time, excluding DFO (which was cancelled). Â FFXIV feels like the first time I've seriously tried my hardest to have fun in. Â And fun is exactly what I've gotten out of the game!
FFXIV is my first time roleplaying in an actual MMO game. Â I have a lot of experience roleplaying on forums, instant messengers, and tabletops. Â I've been roleplaying for around eight years now, and it has become a major hobby of mine. Â I put serious thought into my roleplays and characters, and I always try to build a story around them, rather than doing one-shot no-strings-attached roleplays.
I'm aiming to be a rather heavy roleplayer, but not in the sense of devotion to the activity. Â What I mean by this is that I really enjoy playing the game and going through content and such, and I wouldn't drop doing Coil just to RP. Â However, I also keep my character in IC (unless it's through Party Finder or a pre-made clear party) at all times, and everything he does builds to his overall story. Â It's a mixture of a hardcore content-clearer and a hardcore roleplayer, if I were to give a term for it.
Anyways, that's my short little introduction. Â It's nice to meet you all!
