Luxanna Posted May 11, 2016 Share #1 Posted May 11, 2016 A friend of mine and myself created alts awhile back, and are wondering if there are any knightly/brotherhood/ect themed FC's around looking for new recruits! c: Link to comment
As'elena Posted May 12, 2016 Share #2 Posted May 12, 2016 From my experience (And I searched for the same theme a few months ago) no.. No such thing as a knightly FC or anything remotely like it. I hardly know every FC out there but the only dominating concepts I see is: Mercenaries/adventurers, Trading Companies, Criminals and School/Magic societies. If there is one I have not heard of it in the almost full year I've been here on Balmung. That being said, I am EU so my searching criteria is even worse than yours, I reckon! I hope you find something soon, and if I somehow do, I'll let you know! Link to comment
Valence Posted May 12, 2016 Share #4 Posted May 12, 2016 Not even an ishgardian one? Sometimes I see the full roster in the linkshell hall and think "damn, we actually have a lot of FCs and stuff". But well, the themes are often the same though. :c Link to comment
Lydia Lightfoot Posted May 12, 2016 Share #5 Posted May 12, 2016 Thinking in terms of fishermen trying to get a nice catch to stay full - that hunger being RP in this case - it makes sense that people who want to lead a guild would choose to fish with a large net rather than a small net. A larger net makes it more likely that they'll catch something and get to eat. So, thinking along those lines, that's why you see a lot of guilds in any MMO which have "unfocused" requirements for entry - they're mercenary groups or adventurers or whatever, because that's a wide net which could include knightly types but also doesn't inherently exclude rogue types, archers, healers, and so on. On the other hand, guilds that do start with a more narrow category of who they'll accept can often have a more cohesive story... provided that they can even find enough players to join (and whose presence and participation will be frequent enough) to make that coalesce.

Valence Posted May 12, 2016 Share #6 Posted May 12, 2016 It's definitely true, but I also think that's the lazy way of doing things - no offense to anyone, generalist themes can be good too. Even a specific thing with strong flavour can be fleshed out enough to sweep way larger than it seems to be. Link to comment
