Welcome to Gaia! ::

So... Who else's pissed off at the aquarium's setup right now?

It's not only the little bit about all items being cash-only (which is a big issue itself,) but also? The aquarium's full of bugs, from the happiness of fishes not changing, to the health of the tank not changing, to the clam which hogs all the items for itself. I've left the fish in freezing water for ten hours, then in boiling water for ten hours, and no change, I've added stuff to the tank and again no change. And the clam, it just doesn't do a thing. It's been far more than twenty-four hours since I took a first look at the tank, and nothing's freaking changed in it.

The whole 'prices will go down!' thing for market I've read around the Gaia forums? Yeah, that'll happen, like happens to all the MCs (which are always going up, not down, unless they're unpopular or ugly.) The EI did take a dive down, but you know why? Because they suck major balls (I'm not going to bother wasting gold in items that will look different each week, not if they're not telling me what exactly they'll look like.)

So, yeah. Gaia is trying to do what Electronic Arts does, releasing a ten-percent-done game and expecting users to buy it. But ya know, there's one thing EA does that Gaia didn't realize yet: When they release one of those games-to-be-updated-many-times of theirs (Sims, anyone?) they release a working game, not a 'tell us what's wrong with the tank so we don't have to bother looking at it ourselves' Alpha version of a game.

Gaia Aquarium is like a "watch paint dry" version of Insaniquarium. I'm really fearing what that MMO they're planning will be like now. "It's totally free to play, but all the extra features you will need to make your rings half-decent will cost thousands of Cash."

I just hope it doesn't go downhill as fast as Moneywhore Conquer Online did.

gonk

I didn't think about how this could be a taste to the game! -gasps-
Hopefully not...I loved the idea of the aquarium, but was crushed when I found out that we could only buy the items through cash. >.>

stare Like I can afford these like this now, can't even afford some of the better items and now a cool feature is up and I hve to pay more.......dam stock market crash, can't buy anything good now adays

There's an aquarium? Should I be reading announcements or something?
