So much roleplaying going on I can't remember the topic.

Perhaps a better question to ask Spriteh is "what is a meatshield?" and one for Neun: "Where's those seeds you offered to dig me 3 months ago?"

Ha haaaa!

As for the observation that we all seem to know each other, this works in your favour: We couldn't half do with someone else to talk too!

Ryzom has got my attention, I'm kinda getting sick of WoW. I'm getting next to no RP there and it can feel a little like everyone is 15 years old, it's not that I mind playing in a game with people younger than me it's just WoW has a way of getting you down if you're not a fan of l33t speak. I've made a lot of friends on WoW but I feel that the game just isnt giving me what I want.

Amen to that! For an RPG there's precious little R in WoW. You get more chat from the NPCs than from the players! A very young, 13373$T player base.

For some reason, and people can correct me on this, there seems to be a lot of roleplaying when people are just standing around. During the start of an event there's a bit, and then after they have finished, loads more, but the real roleplaying just comes from people meeting up and chatting. Like when you're wandering through the wilderness not expecting to see anyone on your path and suddenly you catch a glimpse of someone harvesting in the distance. Investigate and say hi! Most harvesters always have time for a chat.

Yeah, the fact that we're all pretty humanoid and cultured helps a lot but I think it's the living, breathing environment that really brings it out. And I have a feeling that future revelations will make this world feel even more....off centre.
wooden7 wrote:3rd it seems like a game where you all know each other here and in game.

Well, we are a very friendly crowd, even with all the arguements on here. I don't know half enough people anymore but I still try to roleplay every time I'm on. Cause if you're not interacting with the people in-game, it's just another game. Welcome to Atys.

The time we do have. And its welcome :) .

We don't have the concentration though, so you might want to be a few metres away from any source we are digging ;) .

Okay, well I am looking forward to seeing how this is in the game (which is still downloading hehe) .... I have played *many* MMORPGs and finally thought I would/should give this one a try ... mainly I find that I have become more attached to the ones where there is more RPing because ... well ... it tends to involve myself more in what is happening ... in any case, I look fortward to meeting you all better once I get my feet wet, as it were, and hopefully can find some good RP partners here ....
