Epith, part 1. Auto-Moving Laziness

This week's patch brought about one of the laziest additions to Fiesta yet...auto-move... Auto-move is a system for the new players (lv 1-20) to able to click on NPCs or even quest details) and let their characters go on auto-pilot (or rather auto-move to the location). It is pretty sad that the game is becoming this much easier at the low levels. Seriously, is the effort to even play video games becoming too much now for the new generations? It almost makes me think of all those songs and books I read in my English classes about books predicting the future where we become over-dependent of technology and become even lazier and anti-social. Maybe that is completely off-track but come on it does hold some truth. Has OS really received tickets/complaints about people having too much trouble finding their quests or the monsters in which to do the quest!? Does it really kill anyone to hit the map-key (M unless customized to use another letter...) and over your cursor to check out the NPCs to find out which NPC is which? Heck, not even that the NPCs already have a colored-Q both on the map and where they be letting you know if a quest hasn't been picked up, is in progress, or completed (red,green or blue respectively)!

Anyways due to me joining a dead guild/academy I stopped at level 10 since no point in continue with very weak pockets of money.

Apoline, Part 2. Land of Inflation?

I leave Takimi and Lunar_Eclipse to further expand elsewhere get a look at other guilds. I find Alacrity and by luck they are power-leveling (plv), now normally I am against Plv but since I am playing a fighter and I do got a fighter as a perm (one at 56 who is gonna level further another at 76), back in Teva I felt that it was ok. I got so distracted with anime today I only went up 3 levels sheesh curse them....
On another side note I found that indeed prices are more expensive in Apoline at least far as town scrolls go. I also noticed however that payout of guilds are generally more higher which should be obvious since its logical. The more academies pay out the more people want to charge for items; a very sad but true cycle that runs the economics here in Fiesta Online...

The Fall of a Great Leader.

 

Yesterday while I was in Apoline, back in my home server Teva, my master from the guild, Kazoku, decided to retire. It is quite a shame to have him leave but I wish for him the best. Our great guild has not fallen though, our guild strong like our master continues onward. A new leader has been taken his place and will now lead us I wish him luck considering we are at the top of our server and his decisions will effect how people view us and what others will think about us. I also hope he will not make decisions that will cause in-fighting or splintering. I hope and wish that our guild will still stay at the top and not falter. I will stay in the guild and see how things go, even if the guild dies I might still stay considering how I used to live back in my previous guild very small and usually empty... or if things go where I see things going down the wrong path I will make my silent departure. I hope the best for our old Master and wish him the best and that he will visit us from time to time; I also wish the best for our new master and hope things will stay good.

Kazoku forever forever Kazoku! May the Pax-Familia (Kazoku peace) last long.

Apoline, Part 1. Land of Drama?

I went to Apoline today to start my new character and start my long and arduous travels through the other servers that Outspark has to offer. Thankfully to aid me in this quest of mine is Takimi a fellow player from the forums. We talked and exchanged histories of our servers and found quite a lot in common as expected of Apoline considering Apoline is not that much older than Teva and both, I'm going to safely put this in past tense, were quite dramatic and filled with a lot of drama. We talked a bit too much for I did not grind but at least I have received an insight on what I should expect from Apoline.

• Throughout Apoline's History, there have been multiple guilds who have fought for control of Helga. Among these are Syndicate, Renaissance, Majestic and a few more.
• There is still a lot of drama present both in guilds and even in shouts and roars.
• Just like in Teva, some guilds have attempted to take illegal measurements
• Economy is some more "expensive" compare to Teva. Takimi told me slash set pieces sell for around 3g+ a piece while here in Teva they are around 1g - 2g a piece

Preparations preparations and more preperations.

First!!! ....Wait I'm writing this....

Hello everyone that is reading this, most of you know me on forums as Gizuma, or in game as Gin_the_Wanderer, feel free to continue calling me Gin or Gizuma. Now some of you may be thinking what is gonna be the purpose of this blog, to answer your question at the current moment I got a lot of ideas for the blog but I will mainly send it to a direction depending on how people perceive and decide to send this. I hope to keep my blog updated and active but time will tell...

Anyways to give people some ideas of what I plan to do for it I am gonna open a poll on what direction I should mainly be sending this blog.
1) To investigate and explore the servers of Fiesta Online and criticize and praise each server for their highs and lows.

2) To aid readers in different things far as Fiesta goes; to further explain myself I mean help how to make money, how to grind and/or solo, suggestions and tricks that I learned from other players or through trial and error. Far as this option I still might do this even if not voted by my readers but not in as high of a concentration.

3) A place where I discuss my opinions far as some of the patches, the good and bad of what OnsOnSoft, shoves at us thanks to Outspark.

4) A very random newsletter including fictional weather, my reporting on drama and the chaos each server holds; including predictions far as patches go.


I hope I get to get some comments, and soon as I figure out how to add a poll, and some votes on poll.
