So I just started playing FFXIV this past Saturday. Â Being a long-time RPer, my first priority was to search for an official (or unofficial) roleplaying server. Â I found out about Balmung and planned on doing a server transfer. Â Ordered the Encyclopaedia Eorzea and everything so I could beef up on lore. Â Unfortunately the 2-day maintenance kicked in before I could pull the trigger (apparently you have to wait 3 days before it allows you to transfer). Â So it came as a disappointing surprise this morning when I saw that they shut down the Balmung transfers. Â Makes me wish I had decided to join FFXIV a week earlier. Â Ah well...shoulda, coulda, woulda, right?
As others have said in this thread, I do hope that a secondary RP "home" begins to develop. Â I'm currently on the Faerie server and have unfortunately only seen one roleplayer thus far. Â I'd assume that it's not worth transferring to a server such as Mateus or Jenova at this moment? Â Or is it?
I'm gonna keep an eye on the transfer status for Balmung. Â But in the meantime, I'm hoping my interest in the game lasts. Â I usually don't stay too long with an MMO if I can't find a relatively active RP community.
Oh...and aside from all the doom and gloom...
Hello! Â Nice to meet you guys! Â XD
Honestly, it'll probably take you until SB to get through all the MSQ leading up to it at this point, and that's if you zip through quickly. And then there will be SB's MSQ and launch content to occupy your time for a few weeks after that. So my suggestion would just be to plug away at all your progression/levelling stuff, and once you're 70 and comfy with your character, see where things stand at that point. Probably by then, a second RP hub server will be starting to grow, or maybe enough people will have transferred off Balmung for them to lift the inbound transfer lock, if not the character creation lock.
