you sure youre on lakshmi? lol, I keep searching for your character name and nothing ever pops up

and the answer is that people only talk to their linkshell mates (guild), you can have two equipped at a time, and the max content you do in the game caps out at 18 players generally, so people tend to keep to their friends they've known for years. If you /yell in a town saying you're new and such, people will communicate with you though
