I've been RPing quite a bit with my friend leveling through Sith Academy, walking down the halls and having random conversations.
It's been fun, but there has been an abundance of RP'ers (which is to be expected in the first few weeks since everyone is so busy leveling etc), but we've kept on toggling walk on happily. A few times some folk stopped when they ran past us but everyone seemed very busy ^^.
It gives a nice extra feeling to your character when you take your time to take it all in. Also, damn, this game is good.
See you on Lord Calypho RP-PVP!
