We've formed a small Free Company of players coming from GW2, and we're trying to decide where to settle.Â I'm curious how many people are going where, how many companies are established, or going to be established and such.Â Basically trying to figure out where a new company can best be established.Â Balmung seems a logical choice, but if there are going to be a number of new players looking for a company, perhaps Gilgamesh would be the better choice.

...just looking for some guidance here... Frustrated

I will likely have one on each server, so not voting since I can't vote for both at the same time. Tongue

I'm Balmung-in' it up, mostly because that's where my legacy characters are. I'm already splitting my time between one RP server and a non-RP server (Midgardsormr, with my old FFXI crew) so trying to do both RP servers AND Midgard just isn't going to happen.

I think in either case there will be a good collection of unaffiliated players to sweep up into your FC, but if you primarily want new characters then you should probably go to Gilgamesh as technically everyone will be new there, even previously established ones. Wink

Ah, I was thinking about making this poll myself! You beat me to it, you...you...quick thinker, you!

As for the question at hand...I'm still unsure. Perhaps the poll results will sway me one way over another.

Of course I'll be sticking with Balmung. Besides the fact that my legacy characters are there, it really doesn't make sense to me to split up an already-small RP community.Â

If there are players who only care about gameplay first and really have issues with legacy servers, sure, they can go to Gilgamesh, but they relinquish their right to complain about a lack of RP activity when they do so.

I'm gonna have to stick to Balmung, but that's because that's the server the Linkshell I'm in is on (as well as one I'll be joining in the future). That aside, I like the rp activity of Balmung and, especially for me, rping is what's going to keep the game from going dry for me. All of the events SE are supposed to run will help, but I know I'll find myself logging back on again and again because I want to rp with people I'll consider friends.

Koninbeor · **07-03-2013, 11:37 PM**

I'm new and I'm rolling on Balmung.

As long as rpers take on the fact that they will be responsible for initiating their own rp they will be just fine on Gilgamesh.

Thanks for the kind words of encouragement. I can assure you that they will be able to find rp just fine on Gilgamesh by launch.

Even though I played 1.0, I didn't get that far or super involved in the community at that time. However, for ARR, and even though I'm going to roll a new character, I'm still planning to stick to Balmung (barring an official RP server is released). I actually appreciate its RP history and I think it will likely have a higher role-player population.

This! (No disrespect to those going to Gilgamesh as I hope things work out for you. I am just bitter that I won't get a chance to continue to RP with some of you who I have met before and those who I have not RPed with yet.)

Of course Balmung is the most logical choice as most of the RPC will be there, including a bunch of new people and not just Legacy members. Not to mention the coolest person from GW2....

<----------------- HIIIINNNNTTTT!!

I am actually glad a decent amount of people from GW2 are coming over because that was actually such a lovely community, but there was just nothing in the game to actually do outside of RP (unless you wanted to PvP endlessly).

Asyria · **07-03-2013, 11:51 PM**

I'll just point out that both Balmung and Gilgamesh are supposed to be pointed out as most likely to have a high population of RPers, as far as we know.
Saying that one is going to be better than the other is just not right, as both should be promoted.
It's not a contest, just a question.

Honestly thank you for mentioning this

Lol I'm the 1 vote for Gilgamesh, go me. I'm going there mostly because my friends at work will also be there.

No need to drop hints, you're flattering me... Big Grin

We were leaning Balmung, but this thread seems to be reinforcing that.Â I just need to check with our members before making an official announcement and putting up a post in the Linkshell forum.

Thanks for the input, keep it coming!

PeriasGift · **07-04-2013, 12:28 AM**

More GW2 people? Cool cool! I'm still planning to play there while doing FF stuff but I'm glad to see some people coming over.

As for the servers, I'm completely new to FF and I'll be on Balmung! I'm not realy in a position to recommend one or the other though since, like I said, I'm pretty new.

Poll: Which server is going to be your main? You do not have permission to vote in this poll.
Balmung	85.26%	81	85.26%
Gilgamesh	14.74%	14	14.74%
Total		95 vote(s)	100%
