OOCly, I am perfectly content and happy with my RP in Ul'dah and the surrounding areas. Going on beach trips, going on missions, expeditions are that much more meaningful when he does go. He -has- to go there for whatever reason and that makes it much more interesting.I didn't fault anyone. I just asked "why not?" was all. And if I wanted to fault anyone it would be the ones who OOCly dislike an area and refuse to go ICly because of the OOC reason. "I don't rp in Gridania because I hate the city." That kind of a line annoys me because the PLAYER hates Gridania not Joe Roe!
You forget that not every character is curious.
And Ruru has traveled and it's still just as interesting as those who might not go as much.
And no. I didn't forget.
People tend to stay away from things that they dislike, and it's likely a player will-find a reason not to have their character go somewhere they don't personally enjoy (just as they can find a reason to go out the city to somewhere they do enjoy!). They have the control over their character to arrange that.
I don't actually allow that sort of thing to deter me from roleplaying in an area if my character has reason to be there, but I understand the viewpoint!
