The Classic Of Today
 

Hello all reading this thread. My name is Tweeky and i am a very concerned classic player. For as long as i have been playing i never thought i would see what i do today. Scammers, codeshop owners, graal "royalty", graal fashionistas, the list goes on forever. You cant walk the streets of classic and tell me that these were the same streets me and my good guild friends once walked down and enjoyed. Today i see graal as what they call guilded, for those of you reading that may not understand it means an object thats surface is covered in an extremley thin layer of gold, but beneath that thin layer is undesireable metal that isnt wanted to be seen. Im not saying i hate graal, its just that seeing the way it is today, no one is willing to stand up and even attempt to make a change. As much as i would "love" to grab xor by the eyelids and say "this is the problem and for the love of whoever you believe is holy fix it!", i cant all i can do is talk and try to make change. To whoever read this thread i first want to say (and cant stress this enough) its in no way meant to offend anyone its just if someone doesnt point out the issues, who will ever know. I wrote this thread so people are aware. Im not classic "royalty" and im not sitting on a pile of gralats so basicaly im speaking from where 3/4 of classics population is right now. Please someone reading try to change whats going on i see more and more people leaving classic everyday becasue its "boring" well i say we change it for what the people want to see, the benefits are endless.

Every game has those, dawg. In fact, real life has those.

You seem to be talking about the way the players act, but as in any mmo, that is there choice, and xor can't fix that without massively banning most people, which he wouldn't do.

I also wish I can go back to the first time I played Graal, but unfortunately I can't. The game didn't change, you did. You just got older and probably grew tired of playing it somewhere along the way.

See but that right there is the problem of it. Its not that i feel tired of graal its almost like some psychotic and addictive drug that pulls you back. When im not playing i cant get enough of the game but when i play im only disappointed. I cant tell if its just too high of expectations or if im actually tired of it. I mean im not the only person who feels that way about it as far as i know.

That's how I feel about League of Legends, the reason is the community in my case.

Sounds more like a personal problem then. If you really feel compelled to play even though you don't liner it then you should try talking to someone about it

Actually the more i think about it the worse it sounds. Maybe i am crazy 0~o

He didn't call you crazy.

Who ever said i wasnt...

Nobody said that either.

i cri evry tiem i red dis;-;

I didn't get to play Classic back in the day but from what I have read and have been told from friends who played then and still play now It seems like it was better then. It seems like they miss the way it used to be. From what I read it sounds like Classic used to be a lot more like LOZ that it's based on but kind of got out of hand from a Creative stand point and by that I mean it sounds like there was to much input by to many people and to much was added and it kind of became unbalanced overkill.

Being a player that's been in Classic for just over a year now. I can see there is a good balance in that all players are on an even playing field if your just starting out or your a veteran that's been playing for a long time. As some one who has complained a lot on these very forums about lack of content I could easily blame the Admins for Classic's problems but I don't think the Admin's should get the full blame for it.

The OP was 100% correct in what he was saying. There is a ton of trash that Classic could do with out. I'm sure a lot of it could be considered normal crap that comes along with any MMO. I don't know how or if It could be fixed and I know the Dev's jobs are to make stuff to get players to run out and spend money on gralat packs. But IMO accumulating a good amount of gralats is just way to time consuming for the general player. They can't or simply wont go out and buy gralat packs, and would rather scam and make cheap bomb glitch code shop mazes and earn their gralats with minimal effort. But when the admins are releasing stuff for purchase every other week and like I said gralats are hard to come by in large quantities why not take easy routes to get the funds you need? I'm not saying you should do that or that it's right I'm just saying that's how it is.

I'm trying to be objective and look at both sides of this issue. From the Admin's side I have seen Dusty post time and time again about how when they do release something new. people rush to it like rabid dogs. They get what ever they can get from it, Then within like 2 hours their done with it,and simply go back to complaining about being bored and how there is never any new content or anything to do. I know it's impossible to keep everyone happy all the time specially when you have a game mostly populated by kids who are used to playing with one toy for a short while until they are bored with it then they move on to the next thing.

I honestly don't know why I have stayed interested in Classic this long and continue to play. It's a game based from one of the greatest if not the greatest RPG and Gaming franchises in history. Yet it hardly seems like an RPG to me. IMO in that is the true problem. The game has become more about socializing and Cosmetic character inhancement and very little about the RPG element it was founded and origanally based upon.

Play Graal the Adventure, see the original source content.
All I can say is, that's what it should be.

Classic wasn't better then, i can tell you that. It's not the glitchy, problematic and small server people miss, it's the memories they shared. i can say even i miss the old days, however, in terms of mechanics. Classic is much better now.
