First I would like to start with a little bit of a story.
Back in the day Aeria games came out with an English version of a game called Shaiya.
Now we all know this to be true. We also know this game was great.
Something else we all realize is the fact that Aeria only cared about money and offered horrible customer service.
I mean I personally put over $2500 into OS lol and I lost it all over a hacked account.
Then people figured out they could create private servers for this game.
They realized they had the power to create Shaiya how they personally saw fit.
These beginning servers were a new road to a completely new style of Shaiya.
Build how you want. Play how you want.
Yet still to this day private servers of Shaiya seem to want to go the route of OS.
Pay to play and crappy staffing.
Of course this isn't true for some select few servers. (after looking around appears most those good servers went down)
Well enough with my story.
To the point.
Why the hell are you people ruining such a great game?
Everyone is rushing the server making process.
Everyone has one thought in mind: How much money can I make.
What the hell kind of thought process is that? I mean yes everyone likes money.
Seriously though why doesn't anyone build a server for enjoyment of the game??
Everyone makes these fast leveling, pvp fast, get items easy servers.
That are COMPLETE crap.
(yes this will offend quite a bit of people considering how many there are)
I would personally like to come back in four years and see Shaiya the great game it's meant to be.
Everyone does nothing but bitch and complain at one another in game.
The admins don't give a crap or try to baby the playerbase.
I mean seriously people grow up.
It's a game and it's meant to be fun and relaxing.
My personal request and I'm sure many can agree...
Is someone with knowledge please make something worth playing for years to come.
That is where you will make real money. Something that lasts.
Something to keep people playing. Not just pvping.
Everyone has their own ideas. Take your time.
Think of it as art. Not some quick fix.
There is some great minds out there.
Get a group together. Develop something worth playing and staying on.
Fix every bug. Add every drop. Add every map.
Add new things. Work it all out before releasing.
A good four months of development time can go a long way.
Now some of you are probably asking why doesn't this Snuggle person create a server?
Well those of you that remember my servers know I have the capability to make this. (yet poor staff choice)
What I say to that question is I would if I had time.
If people want ideas they can ask me. Want to know how to do something. I have the knowledge of most things as of servers.
I'll be leaving the internet world for four years and if Shaiya is worth playing still I'll make something worth playing on for fun. Not money.
But until then please someone help this poor dying game out.
Hate to see something with great potential die out.
Who knows I might just play on that server if someone does it right when I get back :P
For now kind regards,
Snuggle
