Role playing server...

[Dijana]

I'm on Balmung and there is a -lot- of RPers in Ul'dah.

I will say though, there seems to be an influx? if you will of people who have alts or transferred or started out who seem to either only want ERP or are 'special' 4ch XIVG people.

The lodestone periodically updates for when characters can be created / transferred?

I've never checked other times but Balmung is usually open 4am and 8am PDT.

If you're interested in the community or asking people from Gilgamesh (another unofficial RP server), there is also http://ffxiv-roleplayers.com/

I always laugh when people make their alts to do that stuff. I dont know why, it reminds me of the infamous Moonguard server in WoW where all the ERP is made up of people who aren't actually from that server. Although a while ago there was a miqote always wearing a bikini/naked on Hyperion shouting constantly in Mor Dhona for people to join their ERP LS :/

I kind of wish there were some official RP servers in this game. RP servers in any game tend to have better communities in general and just more interesting and lively to play in.

Gilgamesh is probably the better option for an RP server.

They should turn Siren into an official RP server. The community here is seriously going downhill since 2.2 and it's filled with nothing but trolls and "I know it all"s. I would welcome seeing players RP here and there, at least it would liven things up a bit.

Any server has the potential to be an RP server if someone decides to take an initiative. And I can almost guarantee that there are SOME people willing to RP no matter where you are.

I've found some of the best RPers on Siren, and some of them left with me to go back to tabletop.

Sadly I think that's most servers :/ As everyone's gone through and kept up with the content, they tend to forget that not every player started at launch, and that there are still new players joining who need to learn the game.

All servers have the potential, but you'd be kidding yourself if you think they can just do it any time anywhere they want. They SHOULD be able to, but unfortunately there are always trolls and anti-rpers out there who will go out of their way to ruin RP and make fun of the RPers unless it's done in total privacy. Although sounds good you met some I've been trying to find some people to get into tabletop with me lol

the main hub on gilgamesh is ward 3 of the goblet. we have several pirate fcs if you want to do that. And to be honest I've never found any rp on Balmung. Unless it's the bad ones with the terrible Shakespearean english. I think the good ones are hiding.

[Blackweaver]

Yeah Balmung. RP happens just about everywhere I found. I even RP in the open world sometimes.

Thanks guys. I'm going balmung. Ill post again when I decide on a race and class in case anyone wants to recruit me.

That sounds suspiciously like what I was doing 3 months ago.

I've noticed this as well! Siren was very friendly but the 2.2 update killed off most of our mainstream and casuals. So we're left with a poor selection of poor attitudes. Most people I know prefer DF to be away from Siren people lol. If you ever need a friendly face just say hi!

I also support bringing RP to Siren btw. :P
