Hello everyone and welcome to Minddrage’s weekly rant number four. There has not been a rant from me for a while. I’m sorry about that I had quit the game for bit. You must understand I hop from game to game a lot. I always keep my accounts because I usually come back to the game. In a month I played about 5 different games. It’s just what I do. I am planning to play this game for a while but my plans sometimes change quickly.
Sorry in advance for the wall of text XC. Had to get all my ideas out here.
But enough about what I have been up to
. I have seen what Hunted Cow Studios has been up to. I have not seen a lot of things happen. I’m still waiting for the steam update
. It’s been what, two months? And other than the steam upgrade nothing else has been announced. Well Eldevin has released an AWSOME Halloween event and V1.2. But now nothing is coming but steam. Although it is only a day after halloween is released. But with the steam update there is nothing in it for me. I get it we are attracting new players. Eldevin released a steam package . Great there is something for me! There is something for us original players to get with this expansion. But a pack that is a little less than the steam pack without the jitterbug mount, with a regular samurai set and a (i don’t completely know waiting on confirmation from lefty) regular backpack. So my pack because I play the game as an original player I get less. So yes there is a pack but it is not fair for original players.
So yes there is a pack but there is still some problems aside from inequality. It is supposed to be a promotional pack. But it is not one.
It is not as if for a limited time, if you join Eldevin you get the pack and all existing players get the pack. It is not a promotional pack it is a pack that you have to buy. If releasing eldevin on steam is being done to attract new players shouldn't we be making something promotional that you get if you join eldevin? Such as other games if you join them at a certain time you get a pack of rare/useful items. But this pack you have to pay for on steam, which brings me to my second topic.
With steam (I'm not sure somebody help me out here) to create and link your account to steam (and pay for the pack) you have to download steam. My computer is locked down I can’t download steam. I also don’t want to download steam because I don’t trust steam. My friends computer got wrecked after he downloaded steam. Also I don’t trust steam… why would I want to give steam my CREDIT CARD INFORMATION to buy a pack. I play eldevin in browser. All existing players should be able to buy the pack in the eldevin shop. It is kind of stupid to not have the pack bought on the eldevin site.
Now I don’t get this… How are you releasing Eldevin on steam soon if the loading is screwed? I tried to load eldevin on high speed internet and if i looked at any other page the kb/s meter dropped to 0kb/s and didn’t come up. I had to refresh the page. It also took about 5 minutes to load the game. BUt i played it before… Wouldn't there be a cache or something. Nearly every one of the games that I have ever played has a Cache or something that only makes you have to load it once and then it loads fast for most/all of the time. But Eldevin every time they make a tweak to the game I have to reload it all over again. OK GOD DAMN THIS LOADING THING NOW! L3fty you and I are gonna have a biggg chat when I get online. I was at 30mb out of the 45mb in loading completed. I had to close it and now I HAVE TO LOAD IT AGAIN!!!! Why don’t they just make a bloody cache for the game?
So this is how I saw the game this week. Thank you for reading Minddrages weekly rant #i dunno what so im starting at 1 again. I am sorry there was some developmental issues with this one… Also known as I wanted to get to level 35 and was not looking for things that are wrong with the game. The next one will come out on time and will be released sometime next week.
