Fan Festival Interview Questions.

[neighbortaru]

I hope someone brings up the whole bst and mpk system gayness crap.

if someone doesn't get to it before me, I sure will.

[Khamsin]

I think SE realizes this, but their lack of action is the issue here.

Personally I'm curious what the percentage of players who quit because they couldn't get what they wanted out of the game vs the players who "maxed" on gear/accomplishments is and quit after getting "end-game" gear for their char is.

Perhaps the only way to get SE moving off their asses is to attack them with hard statistics. As a corporation they obviously calculate the player growth and base their decisions on majority/minority (i.e. Level base).

/cue all the "___ just got stage 5 relic and quit 2 weeks later!" threads.

[Hirronimus]

That's my whole point. I hate to sound so defeatist, but SE is looking to make a profit, nothing else. It's kinda pointless to complain about lack of endg-game content. An ocassional "bone" which gets thrown towards end-game community is heavily outweighed by numbers of low to mid-level players according to their most recent sensus.

Now, if those low/mid-level players would actually start to quit after period of time and not drag down community progression and pester hard core players with their "lack of motivation due to time constraints", maybe SE would wake up and shift their focus of game development.

[Russta]

Oh yeah here's an idea; ask the developers about all the ancient text in the game really means.

Find out what the sanskrit on Melee Cyclas says;

What the sanskrit used in Blade: Ku means;

What the hebrew on Tachi: Gekko says;

What the symbols in Tonberry's Words of Bane move means (if that one does mean anything);

etc,etc

I'm sure there's more others can think of so add them and ask!

[Hirronimus]

The center symbol of Chakra means Om.


"Om or Aum is of paramount importance in Hinduism. This symbol is a sacred syllable representing Brahman, the impersonal Absolute — omnipotent, omnipresent, and the source of all manifest existence. Brahman, in itself, is incomprehensible; so a symbol becomes mandatory to help us realize the Unknowable. Om, therefore, represents both the unmanifest (nirguna) and manifest (saguna) aspects of God. That is why it is called Pranava, to mean that it pervades life and runs through our prana or breath."

[Lockecole]

What the sanskrit used in Blade: Ku means

Exactly what your avatar says it means. :D

[Zigrah]

I thik I will slightly revise septimus' question to say "or consider increasing the drop rate?"

I mean the problem is as 100 people hit 75 and want a ridil, 1 person gets one so the rate of people camping these mobs and going home unfulfilled just keeps increasing. A lot of these games problems could be solved by making things a little less rare, i.e. their prices would drop so people would complain less about inflation. Thief knife should be rare/ex, drop a little more often and actually noticibly help things... it would give thieves more of a purpose and make everybody happier.

I'm not bringing up the topic of Racist GM's because truthfully I don't believe in it. There are two different sets of GM's and they seem to have different instructions on how to handle people. If you piss off someone who is Japanese you're just going to get a much stricter GM and if you actually get banned for doing something wrong you can cry all you want but you did something wrong and got nailed for it. Labeling them as racist is just pushing it too far to excuse yourself from being wrong. If anything I would push for our NA gm's to be more strict and teach people to stop acting like 13 year olds.

There's some good questions though, tonight is the last chance to get any decent ones in. I still don't know if I am getting any 1on1 time, I will ask later but things are a little hectic at the event right now, people have been lining up since 2:30 to register, when it doesn't start until 6 and nothing special is really going on today.

Please don't ban me from the forums if I don't get to ask everyone's questions =P, lots are piling up and I have a lot myself.

[Russta]

and it gives you a wolfman huh. NM pop by synth! woot!

on a more serious note, though, i'll try if they call on me... but i doubt they'll answer direct questions about gameplay (and i care more about AV than wolfman lol).

[MisterBob]

Itll give you the item to POP the wolfman, smart one

[Ichthyos]

Itll give you the item to POP the wolfman, smart one

because expensive armor materials like d.cloths and dragon bloods are so likely to be ingredients for goblin drink. /nod

[BRP]

someone ban jonclaude please.

[Neptune]

Yeah, I mean it's not like expensive armour materials have ever been used to craft something similar in the past. Oh wait.

[Not Kuno]

I hope the guy who invented cursed drink got fired.

[Septimus]

Please don't ban me from the forums if I don't get to ask everyone's questions =P, lots are piling up and I have a lot myself.

Don't worry, you'll only get banned if you don't ask all of my questions. :D

[epigram]

I want a damascus cookie ; ;

[Rocl]

Oh wait, Sap can actually be used in making food.
Seems to make sense.

Make sense drinking a cloth? NO
Can you contain liquid in a cloth? NO

come on now people ; ; think about the post before you take it seriously.

[Boyiee]

maybe the cloth is used to filter the final product of the drink into the container it is stored in, or stuffed to the bottom of the vile to leak its damascene fibers into it.
