In another topic (any review?) I said in reflection some rather harsh things about Alganon. Now that I finally bit the bullet (or feel INTO the pothole Posted Image ) I can see what the defenders or fanbois are talking about. It IS a rough game. There ARE features misssing. There are PERFORMANCE issues at times and BUGS. However underneath that rough exterior is something interesting underneath. A strong community and a development team willing to fix things and listen to the players. That alone is worthy enough of my financial support. This game has great POTENTIAL. Now if it can only live up to it and eventually deliver a quality product down the road, only time will tell. For now, I'm here along for the bumpy ride.

Welcome to the family, glad to see new faces who recognize the diamond in the rough that is Alganon. :-)

Welcome to the group of people who all enjoy Alganon. There is just something very disarming about this game once you start playing it. Anyhow, welcome again. I know I am having a great time, completely unexpected but great. :)
You dream of us.

I really enjoyed this message! Not just to shout, "I told you so!", but to see that someone else really understands the rest of us and why we fight for this game. There are issues aplenty, but it has massive potential and I think QOL has been doing a decent job so far at trying to keep us happy and move the game along.

As the others have said... Welcome to the family!

The game has issues currently. Some of them are quite serious problems to be honest. Over time these problems should be able to be overcome.

Currently there is a huge need to bring stability to the environment, both client and server. Tracking down and fixing that, or those problems will go a long ways towards keep their current base in place. While I personally am not caught off guard by what I am seeing I am hearing a lot of grumbling from people who bought into the game. I hope this gets fixed before they give up.

Wow Stalvos, I know you said you were going to post a retraction on the forums, but I thought you were joking around. Haha. It was great to talk to you in game last night and I hope you continue to enjoy your time in Alganon. Hopefully they put in some group content soon so we can do some things together. LOL.

See you in game

Welcome Stalvos =) I too saw you ingame last night. Unfortunately the weather here made my internet connection sketchy at best, so I ended up logging out pretty quick and did not get a chance to say hi. Glad to have you around!

I, like all the previous posters, am glad you stuck it out and are enjoying yourself.

I'm more glad however to have you here with us as part of the Alganon vanguard! The pioneers. I often here people talk about "I played Brand X MMO back before it had..." or "Remember the days when..." THESE are those days for Alganon.

I'm happy to be a part of something new and exciting. I'm glad you're along for the ride with us!

Glad you decided to stick around and are a big enough person not to just try Alganon and stick with it through the problems, but that you stated it here. Welcome to the asylum! Posted Image
