I was playing PSU today, and I got to thinking, "man, I wonder why I'm still playing this game" lol. It'll be two years for me in june, and I had realized that after two straight years of playing a game, well, a lot changes. So anyway, I was wondering, since it had been so long since I have played the demo, I'd give it a shot. I downloaded the demo, and made a character that resembled the one I'm currently using on PSU.
When i got to playing, I had forgotten how different the game really was in the demo, it was exactly like it was when I first joined. but that wasn't all that i found interesting. Aside from all the garbage spam on the 4th floor:rant:, I was able to notice that they still had the door closed to moatoob (lol). So, when I went to do my first run on the 4th floor, I found the overall game to be very much more difficult to play, and I liked it. Not only were the enemies pretty hard to defeat, but I no loger had the tons of cash and weapons passed down from my previous characters, so I actually had to scarf up whatever I could in the rooms, including the pathetic drops of 9 and 11 meseta. ^^;
When I found my first rare (a 7 star stelnium) I couldn't help but laugh at how the rare meter on the top left corner only went to 10 stars:D. Anyway, aside from MY experience with this game, I just wanted to point out that the demo really brought back what the game used to be like. Most of our newer players couldn't care less about how the game used to be, but perhaps others might want to check this out. I'm all for the fact that the game used to be a lot more fun, especially before the expansion. Some would say that perhaps making a new character puts some pep back in the game, but you really don't know how much fun it is until you start back with nothing. Not to mention the overall game is very easy these days. So, I'm encouraging everyone to download the demo and just play for fun, even if its for 5 minutes or 5 hours, I assure you it will be interesting, especially for those who, (like myself) have forgotten how much fun and challenging the old game really was.
Plese let me know if anyone else has tried this, I might be putting a party together just for fun on the demo, to give a little challenge to myself and some friends. If anyone wants to try, just let me know via private message.:-)
