I have a question about Role Players in ESO

NobleNerd · November 2015

Most RP that I see in this game is done in emote or say chat. At one point it seemed like it was poised to be a growing part of the game, but lately I don't see that much of it going on in game anymore.

That's weird to me, and slightly off putting.

RP should either be done in /emote or /group. Broadcasting it over a zone is just as bad as trolling in zone. Not only that, but you cant take it seriously. Like, really? You're RPing in a tavern but I can hear you down on this beach?

Try bringing that up to them next time, although it sounds like they're just a ball of cringe who don't really care for the narrative aspect, but the attention it garners.

I once entered stormhaven to find some aggressive Erping going on in zone. *shudders*

Oh I thought the OP meant in /say not /zone

Thank you all for your input and helping me understand more about the RP community.

The short answer... because we can.

Expect to be trolled then... because we can.

Or there probably the emote chat. That's why it's in the game to begin with. So when ever I see a faint purple text I know it's RP ..... A very weird 1 naked male and 3 naked female Argonians in a Orsinium bath house RP...... Dem scales though.

I am serious, please don't think I'm trolling. Why do you guys do it in zone chat? Why do you do the role playing where everyone see's what you're saying, and not in group chat? I mean you gotta know it makes non-RPers feel a little weird...and don't you achieve the same effect by chatting in group chat not zone chat? I'm genuinely curious, and i'm not slamming or making fun of you, I'm just generally scratching my head at your exhibitionist behavior

Your behaviour is exhibitionist against rp'ers oh the irony

As a roleplayer i don't use zone for rp unless I am just goofing off like when i answered a legit zone question as a khajiit. So no most don't rp in zone. I do use say and emotes however and I am always disappointed when some imature person feels the need to trolls us. Sorry if someone is spamming zone they probably aren't legit rp'er's just someone poking fun at us. If you see rp going on kindly just go about your business or if your interested in role play ask one about it. We're always happy to answer questions and just a section of the community that enjoys the game just as much as anyone else. We're also more then happy to share the game world and not troll non-rp'ers so please share in mutual respect.

Maybe so others that aren't in the group can decide to join in if they want to.

and that is the truth of it

What.. I don't even know. Don't they feel exposed? O.o

I never see them in Zone, but I try to avoid Zone like the plague...so maybe that's why hehe.

Now I know where to find them. Now that going into houses is a crime their options are limited.
