I'm playing Spiral Knights and checking the forums at the same time.

I mean I'm even in the middle of an active FSC arena while I'm typing this, with Slags everywhere trying to kill me...

shameless self advertisement

A list of things:

Attend to the painting of plastic miniatures. At least these aren't made from binary code.

Dreaming of what SK might have been. Imagine if SEGA hired Hideo Kojima and let him turn SK into one of the best game of all time.

Attend to the drawing of dynamic fight scenes.

Remember, don't shoot food.

I'm already a Vanguard and I don't care for the new missions.

So I just post on the forums.

I go on the forums when I only have my phone, so I have no way of playing the game at the time

My number one excuse is that I'm too busy-- these days I have to work to make room to play the game.

My other excuse is that I don't want to, because grinding out rarities is kind of.. well, not something that I'm stoked about logging on and doing.

@CRAZEE-PI-FORUM

THE NEW MISSIONS ARE AWESOME

AT LEAST COMPARING TO A LOT OF THE PREVIOUS ONES

WHICH WERE REALLY BORING AND LAME

I MEAN SERIOUSLY COMPARE AN EXACT COPY/PASTE OF A FEW CLOCKWORKS LEVELS TO THE FINAL AREA OF CRIMSON CHAOS

OR BREAKING IN THE RECRUITS, I MEAN THAT WAS TOTALLY AND COMPLETELY NEW EXCEPT FOR A FEW AREAS OF THE SECOND FLOOR

AND I THINK MY CAPSLOCK IS STUCK

(AND DOES THIS COUNT AS AN "OFFENSIVE POST")

(YOUR EXCUSE IS NOT ACCEPTED, PLEASE TRY AGAIN)

Meh, I still don't care about the new missions.

I still play but mainly active around events.

I've been a vanguard for about 2 years and joined in 2011 with a LOT of on/off breaks. I usually like playing with other members but as the game seems to be dying, there's rarely any. You're lucky if you go to Vana if there is a party with one other person there. Thus why I don't play as much. Loving Winterfest though, a lot of players came back for it!

I don't like updating the game, it takes too long even with 10mpbs, who has 30 mins to wait for it to update.

If you think I'm joking this is really 90% of why I don't play

Too many players simply do not know what they are doing. I'm frustrated seeing people not doing the right thing and opening their big mouths. /sigh

It looks like the GMs censored it, though I'm not sure why- it was fairly mild mannered if I remember correctly. I'm just glad it wasn't me.

Oh, yeah

I remember what it said now.. Yeah, GMs probably censored it

game is too dead for a bomber like me

It's not very fun to progress in rank, because the game is so abandoned. I've never seen anyone join any of my public missions, aside from the ones that people farm.

I agree it feels very lonesome in the game nowindays, almost everyone I played with back then has moved on. I can only play the game so long before I get bored running alone, and sometimes it feels like a hunt to find people that will do T3 Arcade runs (yeah I do not really do FSC, DaN, and the like because of how repetitive they get and I'd join more Shadow Lairs if only I did not need to split key costs per run (that's just me short on funds.) I still have equipment I would like to finish up on, but at this point I have less motivation than I did back then for working on my equipment. I still check the forum on occasions just to see what is going on with this game.

I pretty much just moved onto other games (example currently Xenoblade X, Pokemon Super Mystery Dungeon, etc.) along with waiting for future games in 2016.

Poor excuse I know, but it's hard for me to stay onto the game when I have little enjoyment while I play.

life got real for me

a huge family thing happened during the summer causing me to not play spiral knights for a long time...
but it has died down and I have truly gotten back to playing spiral knights...

Me personally?
1st: Lack of worthwhile updates, like, actual updates. Not minor bug fixes.

2nd: Lack of endgame content.

3rd: Grinding for rarities and crowns to upgrade my stuff isn't even worth the time and there's pretty much no point to getting more prestige.
