Re: How Was Your Day Thread V5
i really really want to just completely drop work and social life for a solid week and just do nothing but play super mario galaxy or an old pokémon game... is that too much to ask?

Re: How Was Your Day Thread V5
Went to a play tonight, and had a great deal of fun. I feel like I would've had more fun if my seatmate hadn't managed to accidentally fill my shoes with coffee right before the curtain went up

Oh, no! Ahh, that would have been so uncomfortable. Nothing worse than wet socks. I assume it was not hot at least.Merkwerkee wrote: ↑March 17th, 2024, 1:35:05 am Went to a play tonight, and had a great deal of fun.

What play was it?'
Black Market is back. Really wish the Mysterious Bag was cheaper. Also doesn't look like I care for any of the creatures. Oh well.

Yep, too expensive.. and it's got the new crafting stuff in it. Not wasting my gold on something I can get for free just for breeding. Crafting stuff should NOT be in the mystery bags at all, IMO.

Re: How Was Your Day Thread V5
Hard agree. I really dislike free items showing up in a thing that's specific to give folks stuff they can't get elsewhere, or are really hard to get. That just comes off as forced gold loss to me. I know there's a hopeful economy fix coming up, but still.CinnaminDraconna wrote: ↑March 17th, 2024, 9:56:56 am Yep, too expensive.. and it's got the new crafting stuff in it.

Re: How Was Your Day Thread V5
So, what would be the things you'd expect to appear in the Mystery bag? Only things that cannot be obtained by any other means (which, when it comes down to it, basically is everything that's in the bags)? Would you prefer to not get e.g., gender change potions from the bag either?Airasyraye wrote: ↑March 17th, 2024, 2:31:31 pmHard agree.

As the Black Market overall, and from the beginning, is more exclusive by its nature, the Mystery Bags' idea is to also give things that can be otherwise obtained, but take more time or effort, if gotten by other means. Those who prefer to spend gold instead of time can benefit from the bags giving those things.

Re: How Was Your Day Thread V5
I definitely benefitted from the items in the bags and spent way too much gold on them. But I was able to start of a new lineage with twins while I am still playing catch up everywhere else. And part of coming back to like 1200 more creatures than before makes it easier to not feel the need to collect every creature, so I was actually pretty relieved that none of the creatures in the shops were ones that peaked my interest this time.Rosehill wrote: ↑March 17th, 2024, 3:15:27 pmSo, what would be the things you'd expect to appear in the Mystery bag?

I'm not sure that there is anything else I can think of for the bags right now - but I did end up playing an extra few hours last night because of the shop

Gender Change Potion - optional, since we can get this by breeding donec fish
Breeding Cooldown Potion - optional, since we can get this by breeding donec fish
Breeding Restoration Potion
Box of Chocolates
Fine Tuning Glass
Sun Shard
Moon Shard
Should be available near/at Valentine's Day
Plushie Starfish with a Heart
Dark Fudge with a Candied Black Rose
Lemon Saltwater Taffy
Caramel Nut Cluster
Swirled Milk and White Chocolate Treat
Should be available near/at Winter event
Gryphon Carving
Giant Snowflake
Pawprint Sapphire
Smoke Pearl
Should be available near/at Spring event
Chupacabra Cookie

And the price of the bags needs to reflect the current gold issue, as in they need to be MUCH cheaper. 1,010 gold for only 1 item is ridiculous; we are supposedly living in a Keep FULL of magi, magical items should be in abundance.. not as rare as a Fabergé egg.

Many of the things you've listed have been and will be available by other means, that are not limited to the Black Market or don't rely on a chance-based mechanic like the bags.
