More often than not, it's the rest of the game besides RP that I keep losing interest in. For someone with a limited time to play as I have, the grind is just so discouraging. Not only that, but I don't have a group of people to do content with, so most of the endgame is just duty finder or nothing at all for me.

For RP, I've got a lot invested in my character since I've been RPing since 1.0, but Manari has a certain personality that takes a little inspiration from my own. Which means I do that thing where people are already involved in RP and having a good conversation and I really want to join, but I don't want to crash their RP. So Manari ends up doing a lot of standing in the corner with her arms crossed not talking to anyone. In a way, that's fitting of her character now because she would certainly do that (and so would I) but on the other hand, that kind of personality doesn't cause a lot of RP to happen and it can get discouraging. So the answer is just "don't do that" right? Well, it's not always that simple. I ask myself "Would Manari butt into that conversation?" and the answer is almost always no. This, in turn, does kinda discourage me from time to time and make me lose some of my RP steam when I know I'm missing out on RP.

I guess I need to start getting more creative. I don't really want to do things like trip or fall or bump into those people because Manari isn't clumsy at all.
