its really hard for me to be invested in the lore of flight rising i want to but i just can’t

we’ve gone how many years now with absolutely no lore updates? i had really started to get the impression that the site lore was intended to be just enough for everyone to have a very general understanding, but nothing more than that so users can build their own headcanons and establish their own worlds. and i didn’t really have a problem with it because there are plenty of pet sites that aren’t lore-heavy, it’s pretty much just a thing the userbase comes up with because they want to RP and create headcanons and i respect that

it just really feels like, if this was something they wanted to do, they should have done it sooner. that’s how i’ve felt about a lot of the recent changes/updates and i’m rly feelin more like they should’ve waited to launch the site and worked on it more first bc here it is 3 years after launch and they’re FINALLY doing open registration, after everyone who wanted an account probably already has one bc registration windows have been once a month for a very long time its not hard to get an FR account

maybe i’d feel different if the lore updates weren’t so hard to read and were structured in a way that we were introduced to these characters and gotten to know Anything about them before we’re supposed to suddenly be invested in what’s happening to them? its very hard to have feelings about “this is the characters name AND NOW THEYRE IN PERIL”

dont get me wrong, im glad they’re finally doing something and it’s refreshing to see that /maybe/ they care about making sure their site stays engaging. but it’s just been so long with having nothing that it’s hard for me to have much hope and i fully believe the only thing keeping FR alive is cool dragon designs and the color/gene system
