Quiet?

I've started playing a day or two ago and I've only seen a handful of people, so, is it always this quiet on the server?

I think it depends on the city. Yesterday was my first day, and the first character I made started in Gridania...just saw two guys standing or running.

Then for the second character, I decided on Ul’dah, so much better. There's a lot of activity going on, I haven't spoke to anyone yet...but I want to think all of those were players a not bots :(

Yeah, I'm in Gridania... but I don't want to create a new character, so I'll just stick to it as best I can.

Uldah is pretty much where everyone hangs. You'll also have an easier time finding items in the market wards in Uldah.
