Crawling on my hands and knees out of the water I feel sad for the female voice of Google Translate, who had to suffer through reading the latest long, long and long update from Caspian.

Some of you will think "Why not just reply in the forum thread with the update to tell us what ever you want to say?!"

I say "Bring on the dislikes that some of you love so much :-P"

Oh where to start, where to start.

Dear Caspian

You little devil ;-), even before reaching the part about VoxElyria I had a little voice in the back of my head whispering "We will never get to see VoxElyria. Its been 3/4 of a year since the hype for it was started and still nothing". Well, so be it! There is a positive thought to this, so read on.

First off it was pretty cool and funny to see the image of how a conversation could evolve. Brought me back to the days when I did a little of Qbasic. If not then go to, if then go to. Note to self, start learning more Python!

From there on it was nice to have a little information on parts of the game and how you boys and girls have been working on it. Then the Hype bomb was dropped. Map voting is on the horizon and more will be revealed soon. Oh hell yeah; Mind that curse words do not hurt you they are just for effect, this has been expected and waited for and personally has been more important then Vox for some time.

ElyriaMUD, this is where the little devil comes into play. LMAO So what if we never got it, but nice to hear that the team has had a use of it for something. Oh did I mention the hype for Map voting? Last comment on the mud, it actually looks cool, brings back DOS memories and mud is fun to play with for children.

For Vox, you made a really good explanation for why the change and I can relate to the whys more then you know. One word will sum up how I thing about the new direction, Logics. As for Prelyria, I hella love the graphics, it looks so relaxing. So good a choice in more ways than one.

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

And now for those who did read through my personal reacion of the update.

So what this has brought me to see and remember is that not everything, image, updates, etc. that comes around about the development of CoE will be of everyone's fancy. My last shot of Elyrium was from the great Q&A by SouZou and my second favourite dev (He likes OtterBears, but owns no boat, so can only be number 2).

So back on track silly Kipyq. Following a game in development is not an easy task. There will be down periods for everyone and not always the same periods. Frustration and disbelief and many other things will show their head from time to time. Then at times like this, when Caspian throws in a well written walkthrough of how things went in the lands of ZeroFourZero. Small beams of light starts to break through the fog. Once again it feels like this game is moving and we are well informed. So thank you Caspian, my hopes are gaining strength and I hope that the hope of others are too.

It is said that one bad experience can ruin many good ones. So is it often, but the odd times comes when a Shot of Elyrium and a tale of ZeroFourZero can lift the spirit of even a sometimes grumpy Kipyq.
