MFO

I have always been much of a gamer ( those who knows me knew that very well ) and recently I have been introduced to a new game call "Monster Forest Online" aka MFO.

Initially, I wasn't having much interest in it, shall elaborate on it now.

Back then on 5th June, I happened to be in Iluma with my dear Ray and we saw the launch of MFOI remember taking a liking to GM Kanny's pink paw gloves. But other than that, all I saw was a bunch of kids and lots of guys shouting in the audience how much they love the game and GM Kanny.

I even pronouced her name as "Kenny" and even asked my dear why would any girl call themselves that? He replied it must be "Kelly" or something similiar and said the game was too kiddish. I agreed and we went off looking at other asiasoft games before meeting his friends, Serene and Charles.

Back to the present, surprises of the surprises, my darling was the one who introduced this game to me. He said his sister ( Joey, not Mint ) introduced this game to him.

My verdict of the game so far ( since I started playing like last Saturday ), since my first impression was made at the launch, it wasn't very good. Plus the asiasoft passport kept on rejecting me EVERYTIME I tried to log in. ( Imagine always spending about 1 hour before you can log in ) After reading a little bit more on it, I had gotten increasingly frustrated with the lack of cute or pretty pets. And those slightly passable in looks, are costing a fortune.

I know, I know, I had spent more before on games but at least those are adorable to the max! I am willing to fork out a lot of money if that particular item/pet or whatsoever in question is absolutely cute that it drives me crazy NOT to have it.

But I do not feel such "click" with any of the pets in MFO and they are limited to a few monsters, even though the webbie claims there's like more than 500 types ( was googling MFO ). Been looking around for a good pet since I started ( using Klonk Seahorse, cos I love horses and its the closes thing that looks like it ).

Now, if the pet I am to use is not at all cute, then I would want it to be one of the strongest. Obviously right? If can't be shown off for its cuteness, the least it could do ( I got my priorities wrong, some might say, so sue me, that's my preferance ) is to be able to handle itself in the battles well. Spent 2 fruitless days ( Sunday and Monday ) finding it and geetting extremely frustrated when I kept on looking at one after another not so cute pets. My dear noticed my increasingly bad tempered and thought that I hated the game. It wasn't really the game I hate, just the lack of informations I can gather and I really hate making decisions ( Firstly, I do not want to spend alot of gold on this game. Secondly, no reliable source to tell me what's strong or not. Thirdly, WHY ARE MORE THAN 80% OF THE PETS SO UGLY??!!! )

Went online to check again on Tuesday and my dear said he was recommanded Aquatic or Beast pets for PVE type ( forgive me for using gaming slang. I am lazy to explain. ) as the rest such as Demon, Human, Plant, Insect, Dragon are better for something else. I went ballistic again as the webbie flashed loads of horrid looking creatures. Does not help when I saw someone with a name that I loathe using a relatively pretty human pet called Czech Girl and upon double checking the price market...450G??!! Like hell I would pay for it! ( Money rate inside is in terms of shells, like 1 Klonk seahorse is only 1 Gold 50 bronze Shell, so that Czech Girl is times 300 times of Klonk. )

I am just amazed how much tolerance my dear Ray has. Other people might already blacklisted me for blowing up in their faces for 3 nights in a row. Yet his patience with me is the main reason why last night ( Tueday ) after I logged out of game in anger for like 10-20 minutes (?) I logged back in again ( around 10pm ). I reasoned that since I hated most of the looks of the pets, do not want to spend a fortune and Klonk IS aquatic, therefore I take Klonk. But the Klonk I am using always dies...

After informing Ray dear of my decision, he went and bought me a new Klonk with 3 special talents ( the one I had only has 2 talents ). Unfortunately the first Klonk he gave me had one of the lousier talents. I voiced out that I would go and earn money to get a new one and use the one I had ( since its level 12 ) to earn ( I do not even have 1G yet! Only 50 silver or something like that ). That sweet darling went immediately and got me another one! This time round the Klonk he gave has 2 of the talents I wanted. I am contented with 2 out of 3. And its definately stronger than my last Klonk girl. Cos I remembered afk for like 5-10 minutes and didn't realise it was in battle, by the time I came back its hp is like 10% and still managed to trash its enermies. <3

Then I realised why I had been asking Ray dear to just get one for me and that's it, though he kept on refused to as he wants me to really love the pet so he wanted me to choose. Even if he gave me stone crab, I'd probably love it as well as it was a gift from him to me.

But that aside, I grown to love my Klonk girl more and more ( as I found out she's pretty strong muahahahaha ) and to my pleasant surprise, Ray darling gotten himself a Klonk boy! Heehee... Maybe they can breed and have many Klonk babies =p

Might post up some pictures of my Klonk girl ( Klonk girl is pink and Klonk boy is blue, love blue better though, trying to find something to do at work now~ )

Lol... Long first post =x
