          Its not that I dont interact with people, its that nobody ever approached me on their own

          It's not impossible, I guess, but what are the chances you haven't had any conversations while waiting for sprouts who watch cutscenes or morons that DC while loading and you're stuck in that circle for like 10 minutes.

          Dont think ive ever seen an actual conversation in a dungeon, at best some emoting during cutscene wait

          Do you use any glamour at all? Unironically having some sort of glamour increases the chances of people interacting with you purely because it shows you caring about some level of social interaction.

          I got glam, though I never change it

          How? ... HOW???

          YOU TELL ME

          I had people dump their bozja garbage minions and stuff on me multiple times as a sprout (yes I'm a shadowbab)
          I had a catboy with some HEAVY groomer vibes approach me and say that my character looked cute (I literally went AFK until he left, and yeah he stayed around for a few minutes)
          I get people head-patting my character very often
          I had someone offer my character a job at a Shortstack cafe RP venue
          I've had people invite me to parties in Bozja/Eureka
          Sounds like a (You) issue tbqh

          I wont even say its not a me issue, but Its just a fact that I am never approached. I swear there were a few times I thought somebody was looking at me, but thats the extent of it.

        I only started last month but I feel the same way. I guess it helps that I run around with 1-3 other boobs and do stuff like sit in fountains or at tables while we top to stretch or smoke or something. People usually come sit with us and talk a little bit, which was so strange compared to even five years ago on WoW.

      The most human interaction in the game I've had outside of friends is in Dungeons and Raids, more often during the first like month of an expansion or content drop. One time in HW I had someone walk up and invite me to join their FC while I was walking about the world, not even in tells either, but in Say, but I didn't play the game day in and day out so I refused. That's pretty much the extent of it.

            Same with Star Wars Galaxies. Cantina's were actually constantly packed with Dancer's and Musicians as they actually were an integral part in healing your battle fatigue and so Cantina's were always a great social focal point to commune with other players and find new parties. I will always defend the SWG community as one of the best MMO communities ever created as everything in that game was player-run and everything ran smoothly (minus the credit duping exploit that crashed the economy early on in the games life).

        it's also because you can't world hop from the aetheryte in sharlayan which makes MB shit way more annoying

      because it's where most people set their home point since the aetheryte is right next to the MB and people hate having to run an extra couple seconds to go look at shit and not actually buy it

      I guess because it is the most open main city. I mean, it is the main spot on every server BUT Balmung
      in Balmung everyone AFKs at the fricking Ul'dah Bench
      There's also the Quicksand like 10 steps away from the bench, but we don't talk about that

        We do because that's the real reason why anyone is in Ul'dah, not your stinky bench.

    I'm more happy that I made a friend especially with how unsocial people are nowadays in video games. The best part is it is all tied to in-game interactions only. No discord bullshit.

    Why not, I formed a clique with the other thighlanders on my server (all 10 of them) and we go around and terrorize Lalafell afk spots.

      Wouldnt that mean the original solus galvus was the one getting raped? Whats with this backwards logic

      • 9 months ago
        Anonymous

        The post isn’t denying that Solus is getting harmed. I think the point is, if Solus’ wife knew Solus before Emet possessed him, Emet tricked her into fricking him because she thought it was actually Solus. Depending on when Emet took over, though, it’s kind of a non-issue since everything “Solus” did was just Emet anyway

          With Allagan cloning I could very well see Emet just souping up his own braindead golem to inhabit. Clones of Solus's body look like Emet-Selch since he molded the body to look like himself in the first place, so I'm guessing Ascian flesh-molding can imprint onto DNA, or the body was made to look like Emet in the first place.

            He briefly talks about Solus prior to the possession when you first get to Garlemald, so he did not create the body.

              Wasn't he dead or about to die when Emet took over?

            there was an original Solus that he took over, we just don't know a lot of the details about his life or even how old he was pre-Emet

            Sure, but considering solus both got actually made to get laid regardless of his will, and then proceeded to be stuck out of control of his body for the rest of his life, the issue of "well actually it wasnt really him therefore consent is invalidated therefore she was raped" is infinitely trivial, yet it kind of seems like that is his main point of contention.

            >yet it kind of seems like that is his main point of contention.
            it also says "he's forcing someone elses body to perform those acts" and doesn't prescribe severity so there's no telling what he thinks is worse

      On one hand, I wish I could see some of this in person as it can do nothing but entertain. On the other hand, I am surprised anyone has the balls to be even the tiniest bit negative and critical to others, since it would only take a single upset troon to get your account banned.

    Buddy and I used to troll frick out of limsa trannies just by body blocking them (he was a Roe so could completely eclipse most people by standing/sitting on them), didn't need to say a word and they'd start seething in chat after a few minutes because now the other trannies couldn't see them
    Also manderville'd some (likely ERPing) troon couple so hard they started quoting ToS and ran to the GMs about us ruining their gameplay experience, nothing happened
