When I took a look at this game for the first time I thought the deer were creepy and ugly, no offense. But everytime I came back I realized they were more artistic and creative than creepy and ugly. I decided to try the game out, but when I realized you couldn't talk, it made me sort of not want to play The Endless Forest. Though when I realized you could only talk through body language it made me think how original this mmo would be.
Knowing that there was no main objective in the game, that also made me a little upset. The Endless Forest is more like a place to relax and all that kind of stuff... What I really like about the game is its graphics and how well detailed the forest is. Though, I don't understand all the "magic" features of the Endless Forest, like why you can't just walk over to a skull and wear it as a mask, or why do you morph into a frog when you go deeper into the water. I DO of like the magic abilites, don't misunderstand my terrible grammar (if there is any >_>).
Anyways... When I have the time I'll look around TEF forum and post some screenshots of my deer-fawn character (yes, I act like a n00b in-game. Got a problem, avoid me. XD) or my halo thing... So yeah... Bye.
I must say one BIG THANK YOU to Witcher who let me use her bio layout <3
[i][=lavender] Be a clown, be a clown
All the world loves a clown
Act the fool play the calf
And you’ll always have the last laugh
Wear the cap and the bells
And you’ll rate with all the best swells
If you become a doctor, folks’ll face you with dread
If you become a dentist, they’ll be glad when you’re dead
You’ll get a bigger hand if you can stand on your head
Be a clown, be a clown, be a clown.
Taking off for a camp in the Adirondacks tomorrow morning. I'll be back in town Saturday, because I have orientation at my college. I should be on in late afternoon/early evening.
Hide your face, don't let them see it. Wear the mask so they will never know who you really are.
It wraps around you like a strange flower, but your eyes peer behind them. You are kind and your eyes show it. You whisper soft and beautiful words to those around you, but they run off, too busy to hear you speak.
It doesn't matter, you smile as you watch them run and play with their friends. The violet flowers in your antlers flutter in the wind. You catch a whiff of the perfume and it brings back memories of a time where you barely knew anyone in the Forest, and even then you were happy to dance and nuzzle them. Things were so much different back then - not everyone was so lovestruck as they are today, and everyone loved each other quite equally.
Walking off, you find the Pond. You look at the face that stares back at you. Gentle eyes, a lovely smile, and that mask. What are you hiding from?
You close your eyes and raise your head, taking in the smell of the water. It makes you remember being a fawn, laughing as you splashed in the pond with other little ones. "Come play with us! Come on, it's fun!", the words echo in your mind.
You jump into the water. You feel the cooling water clean off your body. The colors of your pelt change to a lovely brown and white. You feel the violet flowers fall from your antlers. You watch as the mask on your face disintegrates...
You emerge, shaking off the water. You walk away from the Pond, and finding a patch of those violet flowers, you lower your antlers and let them get entangled once again. They are symbolic to you, and bring back too many memories for you not to wear.
Your face is bare, kind, and glistening. You soon find a group of deer, and they look to you curiously. "Redkora? You look...different...", they say to you.
As some of you may know, there was a show on TV for ten years called Mystery Science Theater 3,000, created by Joel Hodgson. This show was a huge success, and the fanbase is gigantic. The show's idea is simple enough: Play a bad movie, and have someone make fun of it. Let's take a look:
You're probably thinking, "Okay, that's funny, but what's your point?" Well, Joel once answered a question I posted that would be included in an interview that is posted here.
Me (Sensoria): "Hey, Joel. This isn’t a question (so it will probably be promptly thrown out), but I just wanted to say that your work in MST3K and Cinematic Titanic inspire me to be creative, even if I’m not the best artist in the world."
Joel: "Being creative even though you’re not the best artist is my story in a nutshell. Have you ever seen the MST3K pilot at TV 23? When I was working on MST3K I was always wondering where the creative fans were, and where were all the people we were hoping to inspire? It’s nice to see that emerging now. Creative people know this and I’m sure you’ll agree, there is so much pleasure in making things. It’s sort of its own reward."
Point being: Even if you feel like your skill in creative endeavors is sub-par, remember why you do it in the first place: For yourself!
