OMG you're bringing rl stuff into a game! Not, really, I've been role playing is my problem, my characters are now breathing entities that have a background, a life and a purpose. I have a hard time seeing them that way if the game has mechanics that break the illusion. Imagine watching a good movie you really want to get into, while the person next to you keeps talking about the RL of the actors... There you go total immersion breach. That's what I wouldn't want basically, so I hope with a gender change they either make it fit the infamous 'lore' or make it hard for people to do.

That's why our generation of MMORPGs needs RP servers, cause it's not like MMORPGs are forcibly RP anymore, but rather the other way around. People are looking for something else most of the time and to be honest - also do I. It used to be different, but I rather RP when playing DSA or DnD irl, but when staring on a monitor. It's just cooler and more fun, regarding the social aspect.
