Sorry to see such a devoted person go over such add on. I actually like the update...
I was expecting nicoya to start making vids on the new update, too!!! RIP :(
Goodbye, Spiral Knights
"Finesse is laughing hard at you right now"
Oh no? What will I ever do?
And yes they do deserve the cash, because they just gave me enjoyable content and I was amused for an hour or two. When you buy a candy bar, you don't get upset that you wasted money and start yelling at the empty wrapper once it is gone. You are satisfied that you were given a candy bar.
I don't expect you to do anything. I just thought I'd let you know you're giving us a good laugh. Thank you.
I'd also like to thank you for being a good damage source to me in Lockdown. That's great that you enjoyed the content, but it's clear you don't understand their new business model. Enjoy paying every time new content gets released in a F2P game.
"I'd also like to thank you for being a good damage source to me in Lockdown."
Do you know how trolling works?
You're not supposed to get mad.
Maybe I will be back tomorrow. Now is your chance to post something without me replying. Quick, take advantage of it.
Yes, it's working because you're still responding. Come at me Lawlcake.
The troll has been exposed. GG bro.
I find it funny how with those updates, certain players start saying "oh the game is going downhill now", when it has been taking that course the whole time; The first clear indication was the AH update (and I'm not talking about the things it changed, but rather, how Three Rings dealt with the community's reaction), although myself I could notice several indications of this ever since the beta, and the official launch. Three Rings simply does not understand how to manage, market and balance a game properly, and they refuse to learn, thinking their own solutions would be either more effective or more satisfying to themselves. And I'm sorry, but that won't ever change, and they'll simply bury themselves deeper and deeper. Enjoy while it lasts, I s'pose.
Do they deserve my money? Probably not. But hey, I've wasted money on much worse things. While those things remain rather cheap, have decent quality, and I can have a bit of fun with it, I won't mind much paying for it. Shadow Lairs were a perfect example of something I wouldn't ever pay for with my own money, considering rewards, pricing, and general quality of the design.
As for you, Nicoya; Sad to see you go. We didn't really meet, but I enjoyed your threads, forum posts, videos, and all. Good luck with whatever you'll be doing now, and hope to see you again.
:( But you can't g-
Good luck in life.
Had some fun playing with you in game and watching your videos, good luck in other games, though be warned, you will be missed!
Yet I see all of this ^^^ above me. Calm down guys. http://images.cheezburger.com/completestore/2011/5/17/c310e2a2-7176-4760...
Sorry to see you go Nicoya. I can understand the circumstances, though. :(
See you later and good luck, Nicoya.
It's sad to see friends leave but it's even worse to see the game we all enjoyed crumble and fall altogether. :/
Cya Nicoya! Have fun/good luck with what you now do!
I have nothing to say to other posters in here. I am in too much of a melancholy mood to jump into an argument with anyone. Used up all that ability in my last thread.
Too bad. I've enjoyed your posts in the past. You are leaving behind an awsome legacy. You shall be missed. Though I'm having trouble processing why you would let a little thing like this new update bring you down. That being said, farewell Nicoya! I hope you shall return!
You were a shining light of originality amidst the dark rainclouds of shadow weapons. Shine on, wherever else you go, and keep that hipster spirit alive.
;D
I only saw you maybe 3 times in the game, and you never wore Dragon Scale, but I salute you anyways. Please allow your fans to offer a 21-Antigua salute.
Sorry to see you go Nicoya-Kitty. I'm sure OOO won't recognize your contributions to the community due to the reasons of your departure, but I will. I'm sure everybody can agree that you've contributed much positivity to this community on and off of the forums.
/salute
As I mentioned on another goodbye thread:
Sell all your CE on the CE market before you leave. Why? Because it will make CE more available so it'll take longer for people to want to buy CE from OOO directly to show them your displeasure. If you ever decide to come back, you can buy your CE back with the crowns. Otherwise your CE and it's represented real money value goes to waste on your abandoned account.
no ... are you... are you serious ..? :'( ...
.. im actually crying..
im crying ..
yes..
real crying >_<,
whyyy! iwhy did it hahaave to be this waayyy Dx .. !!? i never even got to meet him ! .. ohh this is a sad day ... oh my ; - ; ... i neer thought.. Nicoya-Kitty .. would ever quit.... :'/ You were so great, i watched your videos and loved them! ... im so heartbroken to see you go ....
*Respectfully places roses at the foot of this post*
may you always be.... remembered X'(
You were a candle of goodness, shining in the darkest places and allowing me to hold onto my faith in humanity. Farewell - I'll miss you.
Exileddread, I honestly don't think Rawrcake's trying to be serious in this thread.
Haha probably not, but neither am I. I just like to see the trolls keep going at it. He really is a good source of LD damage though.
It is sad to see you go, Nicoya. I never did have the pleasure of properly interacting with you, but you have been a well-known and cheerful Knight. You were also one of the better entertainers out there as far as Spiral Knights is concerned, and you will be dearly missed by the most of us.
Farewell Nicoya-Kitty, and rock on.

As for the arguments in here... Agree to disagree, folks. If you wanna argue, take it up in-game or something. Every one individual has their own point of view and their own opinion on things that are going on. Trying to convince the other that their opinion is wrong is like telling someone that eating french fries with a fork is stupid. For the record, I eat them with my fingers. :)
Sah yeah, folks. Have a good day, and see you in the Clockworks.
If you leave the game, you stay with the forums
NO EXCEPTIONS NICOYA!!!
Sad to see you leave ;-;
@Rawr Yes, let's constantly call one of the most skilled and respected players in this game stupid. Good luck with that. You're just coming off as a troll and your candy wrapper analogies are very lame.
@Nicoya Sorry to see you go buddy.
@Exile Just ignore the trolls like Rawr. He probably has nothing better to do but make himself look bad.
Quit ruining Nicoya's goodbye thread, Exiled.
I'm done and I had my fun, quit getting upset. If you want to say it was me who ruined it (which I did not), remember that I couldn't have argued with myself.
"one of the most respected players"
Shame.
Exiled didn't start it. You and Tammy did.
Tammy called Nicoya a rage quitter, and you called Exiled's/Slayzz's posts disrespectful and poisonous, when they weren't. Nice try, though.
It doesn't matter who started it.
It takes two school girls to argue with eachother in a thread like this. Two. Two school girls.
You realize that I would go away if you stopped giving me attention? Maybe if you did not give me attention, it would be a chain reaction which makes me not post in this thread, which in turn makes Nicoya's goodbye thread not ruined?
Remember. It takes two school girls.
Or we can be like Exiled, who "just like to see the trolls keep going at it."
Explain to me how this is one of the most respected players? I wonder what chance it is that you are in his guild / a friend.
So you admit to being a troll and calling yourself a schoolgirl. I'm not friends or in the same guild with him. It's obvious you tried to make him look bad and just defended himself. When I talked to him, he was polite. I also thought it was fun to read your posts, because they were laughable.
It takes two school girls to argue with eachother in a thread like this.
Two.
I am tempted to make it three.
Well I'm getting off soon, so enjoy making a fool of yourself even further.
Rawr, get outta here. Quit tainting this thread with you pathetic arguments and cries for attention.
Bye Nicoya, enjoyed your presence on the forums :) Joining you in the departure too though, completely understand how you feel :(
I can't argue with myself.
Who is responsible for keeping it going?
Slayzz, you entirely contradict yourself, telling me to stop tainting this thread when you just grabbed the shovel and dug the hole even deeper.
Did you not read what I said? Leave already.
You just did it again. Dance for me! DANCE FOR ME!
And here lies the true nature of Rawrcake. Hopefully I don't look so bad now for messing with him. Sorry about all the nonsense this guy's inciting in your thread Nicoya.
Just ignore him Slayzz.
@Exile Right with you on that.
Just another worthless troll....
And so we already see dedicated players leaving SK and it's partly or fully because of the new expansion. Nice one, OOO. :( Maybe you will stop listening to Valve and Sega's whispering to your ear and hear your community instead. Nicoya, if you're still reading this thread, I'm sure you'll be missed, and I wish you the best of luck in all your future endeavors. I'll miss your videos, but I can completely understand your reasons. To all others who are considering leaving, you'll be missed. And to all those trolling and making fake threats, well, you know where the exit is.
This has not been a good week for me, and already two games I used to greatly love and care about have given in. :( Two completely unrelated companies, two completely different games, yet a frighteningly similar story. First Wakfu, and now SK.
Some dedicated players are leaving SK over this, while other dedicated players are playing more because of it. I know some of my friends got this and we're all closed beta testers. I'm not saying that those leaving are something to be trivialized, I'm just saying that there's quite a diverse base that you'll probably have many others who didn't react in this way at all.
People became upset when team Fortress 2 became F2P
People became upset when Spiral Knights became partially P2P
I really did not want to say anything, but I think people are jumping to conclusions way WAAAAY too early...
EDIT: Should have also stated that it does suck to see Nicoya go, he owes me a shard duel! D:
This is a soldier's grave, not a verbal boxing ring.
There's not much to think about when they release some of the coolest weapons ever as pay only.
As if godly UVs werent enough to mark a big difference between F2Ps.
There wouldnt be much rage if instead they gave idk, scissor blades or a stun brandish and a costume helmet.
At last, Exiled and Slayzz have conquered me.
I submit in defeat.
Sad to see you go. I quite enjoyed your threads, Nicoya.
Hopefully this will make Nick and co realize what their doing is wrong. (Probably not <.<)
ITT - The overuse and misrepresentation of the word "troll"
Sorry to see you go Nicoya, was always fun watching your videos and comparing notes with you on multiboxing adventures.
You can get a pretty good indication of someones ego just by seeing whether they feel the need to make a goodbye thread when they leave a game. Inflated sense of self-importance much?
Thank you Wuvvums. I personally think that this update is getting this game nowhere, and you bring in a logical argument as to why it may not be as bad as everyone thinks.
Maybe more people will think like you.
