I hope everything goes well today. It looks like it’s a big step onto, maybe not a new road, but at least on a new pavement, from my opinion.

With Dragon Saga Gravity launches a new and hopefully great game (I’ve yet to experience it…as I’m currently busy with stuff and planning on checking out iRO Renewal after that).
Also it looks like this is a deciding step for Ragnarok Online. Ragnarok Online is almost ancient in the world of MMORPG’s. It’s been an example for many other MMORPG’s and especially fantasy MMORPG’s. But as time got by many people got bored after playing the same game, sometimes daily, for several years. Renewal can be a deciding factor for keeping currently playing people, for attracting new players to Rune-Midgard, and especially to get old and former RO players back into the game. It is also a step into a world most other RO localizations aren’t making, for example with the closure of the german euRO and the pirates copying RO to private servers deciding not to perform Renewal changes. If it goes well, Ragnarok will see a whole new future in which a great community can be kept strong for several more years.

During the video session at the release of the WarpPortal system, you anserred on the question “why is ragnarok so awesome” about iRO is the active community of players, or to quote: “because all of you guys”. But I think a fair thing to say is, it wouldn’t have ever been possible without the hard work of all of you guys at Gravity. Renewal will mean a lot of the Ragnarok community will overtrow you guys with all sorts of questions and complains regarding so much things I can’t even think of all of them. All I want to say is, good luck and I hope both Gravity, myself and all other players can look at this change in a few weeks to be a hell(sorry Helium, I know jesus doesn’t like hell) of an awesome thing. Good Luck and may the force be with you.

Seravee,
