Finally!

Good morning!

Today I bring you amazing news! Announced a mere four hours ago, Red Stone Beta will open tomorrow. This is fantastic news for all us impatient people. Now I personally was hoping for a later release date but that was simply because I would not have access to a computer to play until December 31st haha.

So you will not see Jiggs or I playing until the end of the year but with our grind ethic and excitement, hopefully the server doesn't have too much of a head start on us. That being said, I certainly hope they do not increase drop rate or experience rate. Many have requested it and I can see where they are coming from. They are used to being high level and uber geared and many can't even remember a time when they did not have a fantastic character which they could use to power level their lower levels or item hunt.

I personally believe the game is more fun and more rewarding when you know you are earning all those levels and items with no outside help. 

Yes, it can be fun to see your levels shoot up drastically with little to no effort but I know when I finally reached a level point during a week with no power hour and after grinding for a few days at 18 hours a day, it was definitely more satisfying. Dropping items was the same way! Though I'm definitely a person who believes that outside luck plays more into a person's item drop than anything else, considering my absolute best items were dropped when I was running 75 luck and no power hour.

Also, I'm hoping for a full server wipe. Yes, I will miss my toon and all the hard earned items I had on her but I am not complaining. Just as I would not complain about reading a book and being left with only the memories and emotions when I finally read the last page, I do not see any time or money put into the game as a loss. Plus you have to see it from a business stand point, any gear or astros they keep from OGP is money out of the new company's pocket.

I hope you all enjoy the new server and you must let me know how it is! Until next time and next update, have a fantastic day!

Time for an Update!

Hello again followers!

Just as our game is getting a fresh start and a new home, I think it is high time my blog gets a fresh look, too. But unfortunately my tablet is broken, so it probably won't get an updated look until after my vacation. Any ideas what it should be? 

Also, fun news! Jigg and I have been discussing and he has decided that instead of Princess, he will be playing an Angel/Priest. He is super excited to do so. I, to no one's surprise, will still be playing Archer/Lancer in the new server but may not keep the same name. We will have to wait and see. 

So back to blog update! If you have any suggestions, things that you would like added, things that you think are outdated or need to go, and maybe even theme ideas, let me know in the comments below! Remember, you can always be anon (though I would love to know who you are!).

Until next time, have fun and happy hunting!

New Server?

Hello again friends!

I see a few of you have been looking at my blog again and like I promised in my last post, I would try to keep everyone updated on any current news.

First up, the bittersweet. Today marks the end of OGP Redstone. I don't know about you guys, but I can't even access OGPlanet's website. Maybe their website is down due to the fact that they are getting rid of a major game or maybe it's just my sporadic internet connection. Either way, Redstone is officially through this phase of its digital life.

But fret not! It looks like Redstone is already starting up its next journey with a website called GameandGame, which has released this little video. 

Hopefully you are as excited as I was when I watched it.

Now, I know some have their doubts. With our years of neglect from OGP, I can't really blame them if they think this timely announcement almost seems too good to be true. But you will have to remember that not all game companies treat their clientele the way that OGP does and if the servers that LnK have anything to say about how they treat their customers, I think we are in for an amazing time!

They are currently doing account transfers but be warned that there has been some sort of glitch that will say that random user's ips are blocked (I was unfortunately one of them) but there has been reassurance on their official Facebook page that this is something that will be fixed once the date for actual registration comes around. So be patient my friends!

I predict that our new home will be opening up sometime in the next few months and hopefully it opens up after December, because I am going on vacation and I would really love to be there when the bright, shiny new server opens its doors for the very first time. 

Until then and until the next update, stay amazing, my readers!
