Talk to me! [It is an online game]

[Imora]

Oh, who's the mage here! Imora is. xD
Yes, I am an SPG like... a lot of players
I will find one too or I will create mine, to talk between my minions, my chocobo, my unicorn and my tail: Venkah's Tell... Tail xD

Usually I'd join a guild in games that do endgame content but since I'm perfectly fine with queued stuff here, i don't need it. I just want people that talk.

However, i have standards and won't join a FC that auto invites. Gives me bad flashbacks to WoW with the addon "Super Guild Invite", which would do a search for unguided people and auto send invites. *Shudders*

I accepted to know how that works. I don't know what one can gain of inviting so much people, surely there should be some benefits, but your FC ends having a lot of players that do not vonnect anymore.

Btw, you, being a lvl 80 dancer, have other goals in ffxiv than a newcommer like me, of course, but I am not so far from your point of view, because I have to choose my online time and have to take things very easy

Oh! The other day I had to go to Costa del Sol! Beach! I have to write about it in my blog! Hahaha xD

Leveling generates a lot of Free Company Credits which are used to buy the various buffs but can also buy fuel for subs and airships. The latter can be very profitable and not all GM's put those credits back into the guild.

I don't really do anything as dancer, I got item level blocked on the msq and don't feel like grinding gear atm, so Im leveling alt jobs. lol. Working on red mage atm(almost 69).

This game can be very chatty in all aspects asides some dungeon duties. I get alliances for raids/pvp to chat up all the time with stupid comments about w.e we're fighting. Just initiate it. Also very rare to find someone not willing to chat in your FC, LS or randos in town. Also a lot of open world content like treasure hunting has a lot of chatters while you do them.

Dungeon duties are unique because people do hundreds of them and just want it over with as quickly as possible. It's rare that anyone whos been in this game a bit enjoy doing the same dungeon for the 10th time. My only advice is don't take it personally.

Gah. This will be the only time I'll ever support those silly RP taverns... but if you're that starved for just chatting people up, they're a great place to spend a few hours. As that's all they do, aside take 20k gil for a 20 gil vendor drink.

My mom told me, before leaving my home town and taking that carriage to New Gridania, not to go to places where they serve alcohol... She was the one that chose my gear and you all know how we, miqo'te gitls use to dress in the beginning, so... She is not a very congruent woman.

What is an RP Tavern exactly?

For role playing (RP) some people will open taverns, bars, restaurants in their personal or FC houses in the residential areas associated with the city states. It can be a fun way to just hang out, role play if you like, meet different people, and chat. There will sometimes be shouts in the cities advertising when these taverns are open.

Oh, and that some of them charge a fee is news to me. All the ones I know of are free. My friend runs one sometimes and she always gives people a free welcome drink when they come in, and no gil is involved after that. It's just a nice place to talk in game.

That sounds very funny!
Thank you, Mikita.

Just be careful with many of those "taverns" many are actually brothels or "nightclubs", and they may try to ERP with you.

Your best bet to just meet people will be in town around the aetherytes, especially Gridsnia/Limsa. Different servers have different cultures (RP heavy, or many people from a specific country, etc). As server hopping becomes a thing, feel free to bounce around. If you find a group you love, you can even consider transferring to that server.
