Just thinking

[bigjim]

Hi all, I have just been doing a lot of forum reading today; probably too much as it is 3am. I don't know I just had some thoughts cross my mind. I was away from this game for awhile now, and I finally got it to run great on my computer. I realize how much I really like this game, and how great the community is but there is something. The new server is kind of discouraging me because so many of the people I know already have left the game entirely, and now many of my remaining english friends are going to horas which I understand. I now work, and am trying to finish up my school, so I really don't have the time to level more characters. I like hunting, and fighting in fort wars the most anyways. I was just thinking though when I first started this game I was one of the few english speakers, and I had a very hard time with it for awhile. Luckily I had my best friend IRL slim to get to know the game with. We levled like mad, we always levled together, and we always were very competitive. We had many great hunts.. probably some vids you could dig up on here from way back when. I guess I am a little sad in ways that I know so many people are leaving. I understand don't get me wrong, but it is kind of disheartining. Yes, I know it is just a game, but just feels weird that we are breaking up the integration of cultures that RO is known for. Damn, I always thought is was so fun trying to learn the game, and seeing a language I never knew. I didn't know how to do anything, but slowly in time I grew into what I think of as at least knowing the basics of the game and classes fairly well. It was through self teaching, but mostly the help of the holas that a lot of people seem to want to get away from or something. It inspired me enough to start taking a couple of classes, and at the moment I work at Taco Bell in which I hear spanish from all my friends there. I have learned a lot, and it may just be me but I like the challenge of things. I feel running to the horas server is just an escape of sort, or to start new which for some people is cool. For me I will stay in RA, so in months when there surely will be fewer and fewer English speakers; I will probably once again be looking for a Spanish clan to play in. This post sounds pathetic I know, but I am a person that doesn't like change and I feel like something is going to change pretty drastically here. Sorry for the jumbled post, but I know the ways of life and many people are going to think the grass is greener on the other side. Yea, when I first joined this game I was like damn I wish there was an English server.. I can't understand all this spanish shit.. blah blah blah. In the end I conquered; I made friends, learned some spanish, had a great time, and still am. So basically the point of my post is worthless like most of them lol, but I am just begging certain people that have been in the game awhile to at least be patient while people are rampaging about the new server and stuff. If not I will be on RA with I don't know who yet, but with whatever people do young or old at the game I wish them much luck. I hope people kind of understand where I am coming from in this post, but I must go to bed. Goodnight all, and best wishes.

First: Newlines. Love them, use them.

Second, I agree with you completely Refe. I often had these same thoughts myself over the last year and a half. The idea of an English server seems appealing at first, until you realize just how many of those Spanish players you've known and even come to rely on in war.

A friend once said to me, "at least I'll take one good thing from this game... broken Spanish skills" when he left.

I for one will stay on Ra for the duration of my playtime.

Regards.

R E F E T A N, what about save some money, buy premium and lvl one hour a day. Im sure you could arrive to 40 lvls easily, and you could still share the time with who you really like to do. This is, as you said, all a community. With doing quests, you will grow really fast.

I prefer Horus completely because Im in my safe zone there. Plus, everyone is on a fairly new ground so were roughly equals too its nice because I can interact with the community more without having to learn another language to do so.

But I still respect and understand your opinion on the matter, as it does get people learning holas language (learning is good ) and it widens the culture community more. I think some English players will stay behind because they wont want to leave their high level characters. But many will probably emigrate to Horus, like yours truly.

I currently play on both, but I will leave my high level chars on RA as that's where they grew. I have other chars, they will grow on horus, no big deal ... little time on 1, then little time on the other.

Not to worry REFE ....... I will still be around for you and Val

LOL, you are one of the few people in Regnum that have heard me sing. You should feel special. DD Jedi, val and I ran into you some yesterday, but I was using my barb. I wish I wouldn't be focused all at once. Take the hunter out first D
