I don't understand these kinds of topics continue to repeat in every so called rp game, i noticed this alot in ps as well, i am new here, not having been here for more then a couple of days, i do have enough rp experience, i am by far an expert lol, i am a ok rper in my own eyes, but... the i roleplayer thing... I came to this game, apart from all others because it said, its for rp... RP GAME, mechanics and rp, its great for the most part, the guild im in, promotes inviting people who understand how to rp, and give those who don't know how a chance to learn as well, even if it is only for a specific race, I don't understand those who only grind in game, i don't find they have any business here... im talking about those who outright refuse to rp and speak oocly constantly, who's only motive to play ps is the game part.
From newbie point of view: Pro's: Rper's i've seen are nice, but not all so welcoming, some are, but takes a while to even become involved in anything, game shows so much promise, but those who make the promise of alot of rp if you read the side, well... so far i feel i've been kinda lied to =\. but again... newbie point of view, wich may scare others of my kind away
Con's: Rp shoulden't just be encouraged, i find it should be forced to some degree... im sorry if that offends some who think they should have people who don't rp in a rp game but... yeah, if you rid yourself of those only here for the mechanics system, some of you beleive you would lose a player base... you woulden't, the player base would simply shift more towards the roleplayer's side, wich... as i was led to beleive is suppose to be our main player base, or at least gaming rper, if people want to play a game for mechanics, tons of ohters games for that, but having a game where you need to rp, would seriously increase the fan base, being hte only actualy 3d game, with low enough stats, and high enough variance so any rper with a ok computer could play ( P.S. I understand there are alot of newbies who don't know how to rp, those are great when they look and learn, but... some just want to hack and slash.. and interupt others while doing so...) I do expect alot of flaming or getting this post deleted or w\e since it was kind of off topic, but newbies vues are important to!
