Appreciation

Interesting topic this week, even though it's kind of surprise to me. Appreciation that's it? Nothing else? Appreciation about what? There is so much to say about WYD, and I didn't know where to start when I saw that topic. Though, I remembered a phrase I've heard somewhere : If you don't know where to start, start by the beginning. Amazingly simple, but often helps enough. So to start off this post, I'll be talking about the real beginning of WYD, and even BEFORE it, in SD, how everything was.


When I firstly downloaded SD, it took me hours to download and install it. It was already late in the evening when I had it, and I didn't have time to play much. As soon as I made my character (Anas†Hunter†), someone brought me into a duel N. I didn't know what it was, and the last vision of that game was a big castle, with hundred of monsters in rooms which killed me. Not a great beginning, and I thought that if the game was only a succession of rooms with monsters to kill, it didn't worthed playing. Then I went in my bed to sleep, a sleep without dreams, as usual.

The day after, I seen the SD icon on my desktop, and remembered I downloaded that game. At that time, I left diablo because it was too easy, and I was bored of Warcraft, so I was seeking for a good free MMORPG to play. Finally, I decided that Malaysian Supreme Destiny worthed a try, and I never regretted it after. First time I played, I was completly lost. I looked for the first quest for 30 minutes, going through entire armia field before realizing it was just in front of me, lol!

If some people have never played the old Supreme Destiny, the quests were way longer, and could only take you to level 256. Past that level, you had to do incredible amounts of waters or duels to manage to get at least level 300 to make a god. The Duel letters were easier, and you could get a powder from the boss. But, even more than the gameplay, the most amazing thing was the community in SD Malay. Here, I am talking about years ago, not a few time before WYD Global was out. Wherever you were going, there was always someone to help you out, to support you during quests, etc. The gameplay wasn't that enjoyable, because it was really long and tough, but still the community made the game incredibly enjoyable, and it's what made me play. Then, Supreme Destiny changed into WYD, and with that change, a wave of new players, which were mostly hackers and scammers, came to our good old SD. The game slowly lost all its interest to me, since what was keeping me playing was mostly the enjoyable community, which slowly turned totally hateable. So I stopped for a while, a really long while, before deciding to check WYD Global. I only played a bit, trained a beastmaster, and started hunting when I really got bored of it, since it was too much a hassle to get strong without buying WCoins.

But what I didn't know at that time was that my biggest mistake when playing WYD was the fact that I wasn't getting the fun of it, focusing too much on making money, I was actually forgetting to have fun playing the game, which made me leave the game for a few months.

A while after, a friend told me he was playing WYD Global, and I got interested. When he started to talk to me about the guild wars, the seige, the quest system, the incredible answering speed of the GMs, the PK system, I started to fall in love with WYD Global (again). So, I restarted playing. Hopefully, Beastmaker was still alive, and I had a few items and money on it, enough to restart a PK char, which I could train along with my friend. We fastly became really strong PK characters, and started making a lot of friends (and enemies haha) both at quest, academy and in PK arena. Soonly, I restarted getting a lot of fun playing the game, but when I reached level 351, there was a problem. I couldn't level up anymore, I was stuck at that level. The only solution was to hunt, and I really didn't wanted to hunt after seeing all the fun I could get PKing and hanging with friends and academy. But soon enough, my friend also got money problems, so we decided to help eachother, and with my beastmaster, we hunted DS.

This is how I rediscovered WYD Global. It was a mistake from me to forget about this game, because it was one of the best I had ever seen. Even though the graphics aren't as good as games such as WoW, this game still is a great one for a free MMORPG, and its OUR WYD, I won't ever leave it.

Firstly, the guild system is awesomely built. The fact that every town gets attacked at the same time is a great thing, since you then have to plan everything. But, to make it even more complicated, Erion can only get attacked by mortals, while only gods can attack Azran, and celestial gods are free to raid Snowfield. Armia is a town for everyone, since its the most wanted town. And, after GW, the job isn't done. There still is Kingdom War, to prove you rule your server. Though, with all these, it can make enemies, and can lead people to do anything in order to win, so you HAVE to be careful.


But, how to make it harder then Guild Wars, what could make it even harder for the players? The GMs really got the best idea ever...

Firstly, the guild proved they could 1 vs 1 any other guild on the server by ruling the towns, so what about an all on 1? Everyone is accepted on the area of Kingdom Wars, which usually turns into Red vs Blue. Also, why not make this even harder? The guild leader that wants the control of Noatun, and of the server will need to stand up on the center of the magical altar for 5 minutes, while being attacked by all the guilds of the server, and maybe even guilds from other servers, since they also are allowed to participate in Kingdom Wars!! But, you're probably thinking, aren't they busy with their own KW? To solve this problem, only two servers per week does the Kingdom War. This way, the guilds of the two other servers can come and help either the defenders or the attackers of that server. All this makes an epic war that occurs only twice a month for a single server, so get ready for the most epic fight you'll ever see in WYD Global for the defence of the legendary Altar of Thor!


This is without forgetting our lovely GMs, which, even if it doesn't look like, I really appreciate in their job and how hard they put efforts into the game. They really do all they can to upgrade the game and make it enjoyable for everyone, even though sometimes they can concentrate their efforts on making the game enjoyable for WCoin buyers, they really help.

So, to end this post and the WYD blogging season III, here is what I have to say :


LOL! Just kidding, thanks for reading my blog everyone!
