Wow’s rp scene is nowhere near as big as FFXIV’s, I played wow for 14 years, on multiple servers, including both rp and rp-pvp, of course there are rp communities, but they aren’t as big as you make it to be because people are playing the actual game and doing actual content instead of afking in cities 24/7.

I invite you to compare FFXIV’s PF and wow’s group finder, it ain’t a small difference let me tell you, one game is focused almost fully on the social aspect and venues/erp whatever else, while the other is extra focused on content, actually playing the game.
