As for the Lich crowd, the same is the case on Cerberus, we all have an RP community, we used to have a rather large one mid Heavensward, an LS of around 50 or so active members, we just didn't see the point of advertising here, if I wanted a small RP community I'd stay on Cerberus, but this is for the hope of a larger RP community on a new server with the enticing benefits bringing in potentially new players who will also be wanting a new start.
So those voting for Lich I personally see why you all are happy, but would you all consider moving if there was a larger RP community on the new server?
I personally wouldn't. There's no reason for me to move as people can transfer over to the new server or create a new character there. I have multiple versions of the same character on many servers. If I wanted to RP with the EU Balmung transfers, I could make another alt. It I wanted to RP on Balmung, I can use my Balmung alt. I don't do anything else with my RP alts, anyway.Â
But if Lich's community were to grow, that would be fine, and the people I've talked to who have mains there and RP would be welcoming of newcomers and transfers alike.Â
Then again, I'm an NA player, but I'm trying to keep different player perspectives in mind. Not everyone only RPs, so why move all the RPers to a new server when they can join an existing server with a more diverse base population? This way, they have opportunities to take part in a variety of activities rather than just come into contact with a primarily RP community from day one.
