First they came for the no-no.

I was not surprised when no-no got nerfed, nor was I surprised when gurly drinks got nerfed, although that one really frickin' hurt me.  What's next, earthshakers?  And why nerf them down to the very nub of nerfdom?   They may have been stupid advantageous in their primeval state, but now there's barely a point to them at all.

Someday little Glitches won't believe me when I tell them about the magical effects of no-no, gurly drinks, and (probably) earthshakers.  They just flat out won't believe me.  And so I would like to propose a special holiday.  Just one day per Glitch year, each of these items gets restored to its former glory.  

You  can even move the days around, as if they are on an ancient, lunar based calendar.  Just give me one day, ONE MORE DAY, of feeling super gurly.  Er...per Glitch annum.

  • - I don't mind it being nerfed, as I didn't use it that much anyway.
    - There's more to the game then gathering currents and xp as fast as possible. To me, that is just a side effect of staying alive and cooking and exploring and wandering around the world.
    - The description of NONO powder should be changed that it was also addictive in Real Life... seeing how many people want it back, we've got a lot of addicts ;)  Gurly drink should have had a same warning :P
    - Items back to the powerfull form once a year sounds like a bad idea. That would be "powerlevel / powerfarming" day where most people would plan to level up lots or gain lots of currants. It's gone, and I hope it's gone for good.

    Reating Stoots reply, I think it's about the fun of doing things again for the sake of fun, not so much for being rewarded. Nowadays everyone needs to be rewarded for doing something, instead of finding the act itself rewarding enough.
    Why rush to the "level cap"? What's so glorious about being at the end? I hope to level up slooow (by myself, not because of the game makes it slow) and be a bit behind on expansions/ new content, so I don't get bored or have to wait for it.

  • Good points, Miriamele, but regarding your ?s about leveling/currants/XP gathering, one thing that's fabulous about Glitch is how we can each totally enjoy playing in a different way (see sgjo's post above)...and some of us get a kick out of competing and leveling up while still enjoying all the things you mention (I go out on walkabout every couple game days to collect supplies and quite enjoy wandering the different areas to collect). Of course, stoot had an excellent point about not wanting things not to be fun eventually because they'll become just click, click, click. I'm just saying...wandering about is great, chatting in groups is great, some love cooking, etc. (again, see sgjo's post). I like those things. I also love to compete:)

  • I guess people like variety.... I went through a big gardening phase,  but then I didn't want to be in my back yard by myself... Also, being a little math averse, and/or having to strategize heavily in real life, I went through a "just want to try things" phase in Glitch. Now I want currants. I'm a mining girl now. I just like the physical spaces, and don't want to spend too much time in any one space.... I might stay in my Fire Bog house, though.... Love the funkyness of that region, but don't like the darkness all the time....

  • @Eureka aka SoapBox

    Guess I'm a deep thinker and I like it, nobody really wants to be considered a shallow thinker.  I am under the impression stoot is a nickname for Stewart, and I love nicknames, in fact I love the way everybody who plays Glitch doesn't seem to need a given name but one they like being called by.  As for accents (?) I have no idea what you mean, unless of course you mean meat tenderizer which has absolutely nothing to do with anything.

    Do you really believe people needed to be reminded that this game is in beta, if so, please please do go on...

  • there's a part of me that is actually happy with the changes to no-no. sure I can't stay on it to work on projects, but it helps me die faster, and dying faster is awesome if you are going for the zombie badge. now instead of one no-no death before the new day, I can do multiple. I just wish they would

    BRING THE HELL LOCATION PAGE BACK!!!
