it really was, wasn't it? i think the entire game population used to roleplay to one extent or another.

Neverwinters night! Yeah you have to pay like 10 dollar to have the game but it still has a strong rp community. It's very different from todays MMO's and I deffo reccomend atleast researching it.

Best thing about it is everyone is in character constantly, been playing neverwinters nights on and off for like eight years and I plan to continue till i'm old
LotRO served me just fine for a while -- I was in a Kinship that had a pretty diverse playerbase, but we all had enough interest in the series to delve into lore now and then, take advantage of the cool last name system (so you could be someone's ancestor as an elf, for example, and have the family tree to prove it). I miss those guys!
