Why even play?

Locke_boy · #1 01-24-2003, 04:44 AM

Why should I even play GK anymore? What's the point? I'll lose everything I have either in a reset or by moving to another server.

.. there isn't a point. I mean .. I suppose I'll continue my bit of graphics work .. as if anyone cares .. I mean, eh...

There isn't really a point to any of Graal, you usually quit it, eventually. And that's how it is with about every game, sadly.. So why get mad at one server?

Why you constantly complaining about why you should be playing and why shouldn't you quit? We all have problems on that server. Its underdevelopment and Stefan and the debug staff are trying their best to make it better for everyone. You cannot please everyone, so they aren't going to.

Let me rephrase.

If I work hard for things now, are they going to disappear when GK decides to go final?

Dude6252000 · #5 01-24-2003, 04:48 AM

From what I heard, Stefan's leaving the alpha up, but also having the final up..Strange, but, er, yeah. That's what I've heard.

All I know, is its not being reset. But, I don't think anyone would play the final version if we spent close to 1000 hours on the damn server already. Mabey just transfering all the mud accounts over? :O

Because it's fun ;o
It's not like it's a realm job and your money will just be taken away :P You still have fun while you play (or at least you should)

Yeah it's fun getting there, but it's still taking tons of time from your life and you worked hard to get what you have, it's not like just because it's pixelated it isn't "real".

I've heard people have killed themselves over losing characters in that game that starts with Ever and ends with Quest. It might sound ridiculous but if a person spends like 8 hours a day playing an online game, it's pretty much their life.

Bill Gates went on a shopping spree.
I can't think of anyone else rich enough to afford that. Unless they were extremly stupid. I'm guessing the latter.

Hmmm... so this is still in alpha?

Anyways if there is a "final version"and you do transfer accounts... I hope you don't transfer the baka equipment that those alchemists made, it has made the current version so boring :'( I posted about it here because of desperation to enjoy my account during the time that it is active.
