same here, i like reading the little message at all those magic the gathering cards.

While, others like yugioh/ duel master/neo pet have them as well, they are not as fun to read.

Hmm, speaking of that neo pet trading card game, i wonder what happened to that as well as the megaman card game, last i check, i don see them anywhere... maybe they are too unpopular haha.

Anyway, ninja blade and alien vs predator looks nice, but other than that, don think i will bothered about the rest, not interest in mass effect 2 since i have not even gotten started on the first.

the last time i played neopets was like year 6 and i remember thinking that they must have not wanted kids playing because you need an email address to sign up and only big adults had email addresses and mobile phones

the last time i play neopets was 8-10 years ago
that time i don't remember they were introducing such rules
we were able to have multiple accounts

however, there are 2 reasons that stopped us from playing
1, the speed of loading the flash games
if i am not wrong we were using 1mbps
but its slow!!!!
could be ourside or whatever....

anyway, what really stop me from playing was the rule change
from easy of earning $$$ to difficult
somthing that we used to spend 1 hour was then changed to 2 hours
some games that used to give up coins no longer do...
that makes things so hard for us... hard for us to catch up with those who are ahead of us

in other words, who got that sort of time

ya, i agreed, the last time i played was around last year and it was very different from how i remember it 11 years ago.

I guess it is the same for all mmo, there is always a huge changes, differences would be what had been changed, like for maplestory, they changed the maps, added medals, tweak it so it is really really easy to level up, back then, i would need 1 week, same hour putted in and i would have reached level 15 or maybe 20 if i really been training and not slacking, but now? 1 week is enough to hit level 30..

Speaking of changes, the thing that irkes me about these site is that it is near impossible to find a decent changelog, i don mind digging up old threads, but the problem is that they are only till 3 months old, beyond 3 months, and i have to guess...

I also wished that these mmo site would have just a text file or something with what has been changed so i know what to expect, what skills have been nerfed or buffed and other misc stuff..

well... sometimes i think they should not make MMO too hard
i know there might be too many godly characters
at least they could do something like before certain level
make the level up process shorter
after hitting some level make it harder...

true, most of the time, it is not simply a matter of just speeding up level up, the money aspect have to be taken into account, like the current maplestory, back then, by the time you are level 15, you will be self-sufficient in that you can just npc and collect junk and you will have more than enough money to buy your next gear.

Now? From level 10 onwards, i have to start saving up, and if i don use potion and be a cheapo, i will have just enough money for my level 30 gear and maybe some extra money for potions, but it's barely enough, i will still have to do suicide training more frequently, which i don mind, but for others, it is an artificial pain in the ass, since that is the only way that you can survived enemies at your level instead of argh, enemies are hard to kill, my damage is too low and their damage to me is too high..

And i cant visit the free market cos somehow before that there was some event of sort where they managed to earn lots of money, which means that the market is too expensive to buy anything and for those who cant be ass to study the market, all it means that they wont be able to earn a lot of money and even then, cos of all these high prices at all the stores, guys like me will assume that everyone is a bloody cny vendor and stop visiting there, so we end up have to farm our own equip which by the way, is still low as hell.

Anyway, i probably expect the required exp graph to be as crazy as it, so probably this time round, for me to be rich enough for future stuff, i probably have to grind till 50+++

I have no idea, there just something about that game that keep sucking you in... they probably placed some sort of hyponotic messages in that game. that somehow attracts all the rich brats to that place.

So, all these rich people will whine about how hard it is to train/earn money and since they are rich, they will waste money on those prepaid cards and in the long term, asiasoft will earn more money since it's like what my friend say, now that it is too easy to earn exp but too hard to earn money, the only way you can balanced things out is to buy the x2 mesos card and that cost so much money and last for a while only.

i know... i rather spend my money on mechquest, one time payment and i get the premium stuff, of cos there are still the more stronger and more cooler stuff, but that's another story all together.

As for me, i rather just prove to guys that you dont need cash items to train, so for most of the games that i play, i never used any cash items, even those that are given to me as a reward
biggrin.gif


But elixir, the most pathetic thing is still that old news article about a dad who wasted 30k on a maplestory equipment for his son.

When i saw that news, i really want to called up some friends and ask if they know any gang and ask them to rob that guy house lor... 30k for a equip that doesnt even last 30 days... what a waste of money...

  • Vetusomaru @ Vetusomaru:
    one of the reasons i deleted all my social media accounts, reddit account (although i was rarely using it) etc was to get away from this shit.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Vetusomaru, Sadly, not all communities like to play nice. Forums are pretty much dying despite Discord amongst other social media being available.
  • Vetusomaru @ Vetusomaru:
    i only kept my twitter accounts and only because many of the artists i like share their art only/mostly at twitter.
  • Vetusomaru @ Vetusomaru:
    lots of discord groups (even the big ones) are also dead for some reason.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Twitter is way too shittier.
  • Vetusomaru @ Vetusomaru:
    that's why i added some firefox addons to block shit like twitter trends.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Discord, on the other hand, moderation tends to not be very nice in video game communities from what I had experienced.
  • Vetusomaru @ Vetusomaru:
    nah, discord is also a shithole. discord is good only if you have your own community with your own rules. or if you re lucky to find some groups that arent shitholes.
  • Vetusomaru @ Vetusomaru:
    as about forums, when i recently revisited some old forums i used to be regular and seeing how immature most members still are i was like "Yeap. Nothing of value has been lost.". Unfortunately it's the good, comfy forums that ended up dead or shut down, especially because of internet centralization.
  • Skelletonike @ Skelletonike:
    I like being immature.
  • Skelletonike @ Skelletonike:
    Let be immature online ffs.
  • Skelletonike @ Skelletonike:
    As long as it's not resetera, anywhere is ok really.
  • Skelletonike @ Skelletonike:
    resetera is just... cancerous
  • Vetusomaru @ Vetusomaru:
    is that Ultimate Hentai Kamen at your avatar?
  • Skelletonike @ Skelletonike:
    I see you're a person of culture.
  • Vetusomaru @ Vetusomaru:
    likewise
  • Skelletonike @ Skelletonike:
    It's a genuinely great manga.
  • Vetusomaru @ Vetusomaru:
    too bad it never got an anime adaption, even in the form of OVA since a tv series would be too censored for the manga's material.
  • Vetusomaru @ Vetusomaru:
    and yeah, great manga.
  • Skelletonike @ Skelletonike:
    no idea why it would be censored tbh, it has nothing to explicit
  • Skelletonike @ Skelletonike:
    compared to most midnight anime that air in japan
  • Vetusomaru @ Vetusomaru:
    we talk about same japanese tv that censors shit like teenage characters smoking
  • Skelletonike @ Skelletonike:
    I'd rather they censor smoking than cleavage like they do in the west.
  • Skelletonike @ Skelletonike:
    Smoking is bad for your health, boobs are good
