The players can't do anything about it, and it isn't their fault. Ask yourself, who runs the servers? Not even the staff can do anything about it. I don't think you can ask anyone to leave the game on your account, just because it doesn't all happen fast enough for you.
The lag is also common in some cases because of the device, and your own internet.
- You can make great friends
- It's a great source of pocket entertainment
- It introduces a lot of people to pixel art
- It introduces a lot of people to game development
- For those who have played LttP, it's a good bit of nostalgia
- Towers and PKing is fun, providing it's your cup of tea
- Good place for just a chat
- People enjoy working towards getting gralats to buy items they can show off
- This includes hats, furniture, bodies
- You can customize heaps about your profile, house, and avatar
- It can suck up hours of your time in an airport or anywhere like that
- Bug catching was a great addition
- The new tileset is really nice
- When you're new, you can spend heaps of time just exploring
- There are lots of signs and stuff around the world that give you cool bits of information and backgrounds, and you can begin "treasure hunts" of sorts, piecing it all together
- The world is large, even though most players stay in what is meant to be the central hub - Graal City
- Guilds are great little communities, and it's not hard to find good ones
- There are roleplay guilds for almost every fandom you could be a part of
- The arrow minigame is really great, and there'll be more like that to come, I'm sure
- There's a huge amount of mounts and morphs to make it even better
- You can even customize your sword, even though it's something you only see for a second at a time
- We're getting growing numbers of baddies of different sorts around the world to fight
- Sparring is very popular, and people love to compare scores and try to improve them
- Guild sparring ties having fun with your guild, and working as a team
- The GST is a fun way that the whole playerbase starts to join together.
- You can play on two websites on the internet
- You can now play on Android too
That's just Classic. Did I mention there's a PC platform too, and a few other mobile Graal games?
Now, let's take a look at the most common complaints, and address them:
- You like to complain about how there's lag in areas with a lot of players.
See the start of this post.
- A small majority of you dislike hats
That's your problem. A large majority do, and you can't take that away from them.
- A small majority of you dislike events
That's your problem. A large majority do, and you can't take that away from them.
- You think the game could do with more replayable content, and ways to make money
I can't disagree with this one. But most players also don't seem to understand the work it takes to make this content. The staff aren't paid in anything, you know, except the ability to log onto the game.
- You think some of the players are idiots
It's a MMO. Go on any MMO, and you'll find idiots. This game is marketed to young people - there are idiots. Other MMOs are marketed to older people, and there are still idiots. Go outside, there are idiots. You can't escape idiots. If you're tired of young teenagers, maybe this game isn't for you. They're enjoying this game fine; it's only you who isn't. You don't even need to see them in game. They all stay in Graal City, as you like to point out.
- You're too lazy to actually work to buy the items you want / you think things are too expensive
As one because they're pretty much the same thing.
You complain that you need to buy gralat packs to get things. Can I just remind you that it's your choice? You can actually get gralats, and it's quite easy. The key is to get off your lazy ass. Go talk to Blueh about it, he's fantastic at it. He's never without at least a few thousand. He actually wrote a fantastic guide about it, which you can see here.
The general gist of this post is: this thread is ridiculous. Everyone complains about the game, but they're the same ones with thousands of hours and never stop playing.
