I find it completely sad. (Questing)

Sorry you feel that way dude. I just wish there was more lore in the game.

Says the person literally playing on the unofficial Roleplay server, which is full of players who do nothing but talk about lore and where and how to find almost all of it in game and where specific bits of it are mentioned.

Yeah, there was a lot of lore foundation in 1.0 that we will likely not see in game again (and that SUCKS), but holy crap the game is full of it but you have to sit down and READ THE TEXT. And not just the dialogue boxes or the places where there's voice acting. The levequests and FATEs and EVERYTHING in the game has lore packed into it in ways that you don't see. From the named NPCs that you can talk to even when they don't have a quest to the random NPCs that just have dialogue bubbles pop up - lore is EVERYWHERE in the game.

All these RPers that you're surrounded with didn't all just play during 1.0 or pull lore from their asses. They took time to scour the game world and find references to stuff.

I kinda see your point....but at the same time I agree with everything everyone else has said.

Isn't there suppose to be a Roe homeland or colony, (or something) around Ishgard area somewhere? It'd have been nice to have been able to see it and give it a distinct feel and fleshed out their culture.

The Hellsguard live within the foothills of Abalathia's Spine. Not necessarily near Ishgard though. just within the mountain range (which spreads across a fair area, including to parts of Xelphatol, IIRC.)
