i made a post about SK last year and not much came up, they apparently had their first cosmetic update in years which is really surprising since they practically have went radio silent with servers on life support and constant rubber banding. I'd say just wait until Thetya comes around and unfucks everything.

played it for a TF2 hat and never got it, fuck em

>>1943995
i crafted mine into the prinny hat :D

>>1943951
Even 10 years ago the content updates dried up real quick

>>1942976
I miss it dearly. I know it's still online, but it's just so quiet these days, and the post-Vanaduke content is such a mystery to me. I also heard they added an incredibly overpowered gun that you can only get from trading, and that that same gun is prone to crashing the game due to Java spaghetti lag.

I still have my T5 character from launch, thankfully. And Grey Havens is doing... a passable job at keeping the servers up in maintenance mode. Could be worse.

this is exactly why i said "cosmetic update", battle sprites and the removal of energy refilling / elevator costs were one of the bigger ones i remember when i played all the way back in 2012 and onward.

>>1942976
I think it had a great premise for a live-service game which no other game has captured yet. Zelda 4 Swords style puzzles, pushing, throwing, tiles, combat stuff for coop is fun.

>>1944214
I know most people won't agree, but I would've far rathered the devs stick with elevator energy costs than the system that came after. I just paid $35/year to bypass them after a while and the game was far more fun for it. The heat change caused the grind to become so much longer to the point where I never felt I like got anywhere.

>>1942976
man I played this for so long, can't really find another game like it

>>1942976
Just unlocked the expansion since 100 energy now cost like 5k crowns

>>1946743
holy fucking shit is the economy that bad now?

apparently the guy behind the knights launcher or some other dude said there's some stuff in the files indicating more major updates in the future but that was months ago and i can't find the source anymore. it had something to do with the game being rebuilt to use different types of models or something. whatever
i don't expect anything

nevermind it seems to just be cosmeticslop
you'd think the company in charge would realize how lucky they are to still have a loyal fanbase after more than a decade of fucking nothing and release a level, a weapon or a boss from time to time, but noooope. oh well

>>1945111
i know it's not quite it, but the old Ys games (napishtim, felghana, origin) are somewhat close

>>1946743
...is that a lot or a little?
It's been a while for me

>>1947538
It went down to 4700 - 4800 since then but the price of gear hasn't changed
>>1947924
It's roughly 15 minutes of farming on elite missions if it wasn't so laggy

i think about this game every now and then, i have no clue what the end game was. I remember getting some good gear like that rapier that shot black and red spikes, and i had the dread skelly armor and some other shit. lost my password somehow though. i remember the username but i think i made a fake email for the game like a retard. they stopped updating it not long after that happened and i never went back but periodically i look to see if they update anyhing because i would make a new account. last time i played was around 2012.


idk how the game is still around at this point but they havent updated it since was sounds to be 2012-2014 with any new content. seems bizarre. i wonder how many people are on every day, like 5? wtf do they do? stand around like its second life and talk?


yeah fuck those guys for abandoning the game though it had a lot of promise i wish the creators just came out and told people what the ending was gonna be and elaborated on the lore for us.

>>1942976
I wish I could play it offline

Someone in taiwan created a patch to play some literal who pvp/pve game GetAmped 2 from 2005-ish in lan mode which surprises me that it isn't more common to do.

Man I miss this game, I've never played anything else like it. We need more fun co-op dungeon crawlers that have engaging gameplay cause Diablo is just not my speed at all.

>>1942976
A shame it died so fast
spend all my life crystals soloing Vanaduke because I couldn't find a party

>>1947745
>the company
As far as I am aware "the company" is literally one dude in Seattle who inherited all the rights for all the OOO games.

I keep hoping he'll open source it and Puzzle Pirates like he did for all their other games (though he simultaneously shut those down, maybe this makes enough money to actually allow himself a small income beyond the server costs)

>>1942976
Iconic artstyle, could have been a multimedia monster if the devs weren't complete retards and released it on console

The private server is never happening because people don't know how to bully selfish developers anymore.

any chance those bizarre mmo adventure guys could give this game a shot? and/or a new group forming for a few weeks? i wouldn't mind playing it again

>>1976208
It was so good, and so fucking wasted on that garbage Slime Rancher.

>>1942976
>mmo with another wasted potential

update: the game is now being ruined by cosmetic items that don't fit the iconic artstyle
it's tf2 all over again, except i don't think this game can survive the abuse

>>1942976
Yeah I got a free tf2 hat outta it.
I tried playing more but I just remember it being sorta boring, but cute!

>>1984651
>i don't think this game can survive
it didnt

will there be a /vm/ guild on thetya?

>>1981855
what's wrong with Slime Rancher?

>>1991050
it's still limping along because there's a preservation effort
but it's pointless if the thing they're trying to preserve is not the same anymore
the game still has some life in it PURELY because of the artstyle

>>1993914
And the music. Let's not forget that

>>1994019
Gotta give props to the designer of firestorm citadel. Sure it gives the biggest payout, but it's also a pretty fun dungeon considering people have been running it since the release (or even beta?)
