Man, there's a lot of very pretty neopets site art and a lot of very nice fanart out there that makes me really nostalgic,

But god damn am I glad I stopped playing.

That game had so much shit that was hard to get and a ton of pointless mechanics when I left,

And that was before the whole fucking conversion drama, and annoying monetization, and oh god that economy, and a ton of art added that was just really poorly done, and I could go on.

I'm much happier being on a pet site* that only really has the three recurring pillars of drama and is very forgiving about gameplay and avoiding FOMO and such.

*yeah it's technically a distinct but related category of site but it scratches the same itch and I'm making a point damn it.

#fan wank #ignore Morg #no I'm not plugging the game I currently play by name because I don't want to look like some fucking advert #it's pretty obvious anyway for anyone that looks at my blog because I've been posting about my recent projects #yes this wank was prompted by nostalgia #the NP artstyle was very much a product of its time in a way that I (for the most part) like and I wouldn't mind seeing more inspired by it #just... without the associated bullshit and hoops #the sheer quantity and variety of flash games were fantastic too #I wouldn't *complain* if the current site I'm on poached some of NP's old flash game creators #but their work is probably more expensive these days anyhow so it's probably not likely #man if we got our own version of those tricky trap avoidance Hannah the Treasure Hunter platformers though...#I'll admit I think I was kind of gay for her in elementary school (I didn't aspire to look like her at the time but I did *really* like her #I say kind of because. elementary schooler. I sure didn't think about that hard enough to categorize it at the time.
