Howdy hee, howdy ho, welcome to my post. This post is specifically targeted to the people who have been playing Ragnarok for years, whether on Private Servers or Official Servers, I don't discriminate. Actually, I don't even care if you're seasoned or not, feel free just to voice your frustrations. I have a question to ask of you;
> What are your long-term problems with RE:START, WarpPortal, or etc.? <
Now you're probably thinking, "Why should I even answer this question? We've been complaining about the same thing for the last 1/3/5/10/15 years and they've never fixed it." Well, truthfully, there's no reason you should answer my question. The reason I want to know is because, well, occasionally I pick a game that has bad reviews on Steam and I go through its features and such to verify if it really is bad or not. I compile my reasoning and turn them into a garbage-tier YouTube video because I need a creative export somewhere in my life. This is the first time a game that I want to play has been review bombed so hard, and obviously a lot of the dissatisfaction is coming from people who are experienced in Ragnarok, or at the very least have extensive history with Gravity / WP. I wanted to get the perspective of those who have criticisms that may be relating to their long-term experience with this game to offer a specific kind of view in my video.
Personally, I don't have very many problems in RE:START, or with WarpPortal, but I also haven't played Ragnarok as extensively as many people who are here today have. Thus, when I hear, very commonly, things like "This server won't be open for more than a year." or "This server is just a last-ditch cash-grab from the community.", it's kind of disheartening for me because this is my first real attempt at playing Ragnarok with my group of friends. I've played two other Private Servers in my life ([Removed] and one other server I don't remember) but never really could play the official servers (either because I couldn't pay, and when Valkyrie was around I was in my senior year in high-school, so I unfortunately couldn't focus on the game).
So, please feel free to share with me your criticisms. I'm sure they're speckled around here on the forums, but I figure there may be some people with strong opinions that aren't exactly relevant to any of the focus points, and thus haven't had a chance to share them recently. This isn't a WoE post, so I'm hoping for some civility to keep this thread open for at least a week . My video will likely be composed and into post on Monday (10/16), so posts thereafter may be skipped.
Since I would like to use your post (or at least your words) in my video, if you want me to credit it to an account or Twitter handle or website or anything like that, please just mention it and it will be done.
Edit: Whoops, didn't know I couldn't mention servers, so the server name got cinna-bombed. Rest in peace.
