I've made use of the fact that FFXIV allows one to pseudo-generate eye contact with other players via the targeting system. A lot of Roleplay has sprung up for me as I idle eating cake or a sandwich (seriously, don't become a proficient baker and live alone, all you do is bake, drink, and indulge in MMO's) toggling between people Roleplaying or standing near me. Getting caught staring or checking people out as an introvert can be pretty amusing in itself.
