Role Playing Characters

[Zebraoracle]

A have never RP in FF, mainly because I suck at RP. When I played DnD with my friends the GM usually tell me to "try to role play more". I just simply cant.

But I have always wondered, how do you RP in FF XIV? is everyone a WoL? Is just a "different universe"?

My group strays away from the main story stuff, like yeah certain canon events have happened but we as a whole generally have nothing to do with it. We all separate the WoL character from our RP characters and just exist as completely different characters within the world of 14. Beyond that we just... act out scenes in character as we wish.

Someone will say in discord something like "Anyone want to RP?" and someone will say sure and be like "where? what are we doing/what's the scene?" and just go from there.
