Kat, the only reason I pay the monthly fee for this game IS for the RP. Â As others have said here. Â Yes I dabble into PVE for pretty things, but without RP, I would not play this game. The community is wonderful, and people I have ran into are fantastic.
And the more I run into different characters, more I feel like it is a community because everyone seems to be involved in multiple plots which all somehow... can be weaved together through seven degrees of... *thinks*... Osric. He's the guy with the hand in MOST cookie jars that I can think of at this moment. And as for cities, there are RPs to be found in any city. My preference of course is Ul'Dah for the layout, the corruption that is just ingrained into its history, and because my character is a Sultansworn. But I have RPed in both Limsa and Gridania as well and both are very beautiful and idyllic settings on their own. I'd say give it a try! I think you will have a blast. |

Unlike some posters, I actually really love the gameplay of XIV, but I also do a lot of RP. In fact, I've turned down doing game stuff for RP -- that's how good the RP typically is. There's certainly nothing wrong with subscribing just for the RP, and with the vibrant RP community, you'll find yourself having a lot of fun.

I left the game some time ago because I found myself never actually looking forward to the gameplay bits, and because Square Enix made some decisions I don't actually like.
But yes, the roleplaying was pretty good. I don't recall having any bad scenes or meetings with people. So there's that. And I had fun levelling, at least. But I feel like someone should mention that the vanity/glamour system is locked at level 50. Allow me to be that guy: the vanity/glamour system is locked at level 50. |

The glamour system is locked, but there is no reason to glamour for RP, just wear the clothes. I only glamour my PVE stuff, because my stats don't matter for RP.

Hey there! The RP is great, at least if you know where to look! RP is 75% of the reason why I subscribe myself. If you end up on Balmung, Harbingers of Dawn would be happy to have you! We're a med-heavy RP FC with lots of different plots going on! We have a company house and the housing is really pretty cool. Â If you want open world RP, the best place to check will be the Adventurer's Guild of each of the three major cities.

Then you can pretty much wear the widest array of clothes, only missing some Disciple of Magic specific items. Mages hit in the head with a baseball bat, though. They can't wear leather and other clothy-looking items that only Disciples of War can. Not to mention they can't mix and match their clothes to look like "wizard who wears armor" or something like that. |
