Finding RP in a nutshell

Awesome~

Anyway, they won't like the same version but not caring for established lore won't get them anywhere. It's like trying to fit a square peg into a round hole. DnD is different in that it's limited to your friends and is open for being altered in the way you see fit because of this. Whereas using the MMO you're amongst strangers and what's established in the game is the base. DnD is pretty malleable, I play it on occasion and fun times were had!

For instance, the reason why I'd rather roleplay with someone who obeys lore in-game is because they also know how to work inside the confinement of FFXIV's world and do it well. Things are also easier to explain and can be woven into other scenarios with ease. Hence why I have zero interest to RP with someone who disregard's XIV's lore.


Now when it comes to approaching people, there's a good train of thought I adopted: Standing around and waiting for someone to approach over fear of "what if they don't like me" won't get me anywhere. It's the words "what if" that does it, but turning that "what if" into a certain "yes" or "no" is more preferable as now there is a solid answer upon approach. That's how I look at it anyway.
