Short article about TEF

Hello everyone! I'm relatively new here, though my deer has been prancing around now and then for a couple of months.

I've just finished a short article on The Endless Forest on my website. The zine is usually about music, but occasionally features articles on other cultural phenomena. The article is the first in a four-part special on Tale of Tales:

Hope you enjoy!

It was meant purely as an observation. I guess the nature of the game makes it more attractive to females than many other games. It itsn't meant to say anything about males - like myself - who also enjoy it. Smiling

Though you might say it says a little bit about what kinda guy you are. Perhaps more in touch with a 'feminine' side? Though honestly I dislike supposed gender-specific typecasting, as it's generally too inaccurate. OK, back to playing BioShock to confirm my masculine side!!!

This was a wonderfully written article! I'm sure you'll discover much more about the forest and the community during the next parts. I suspect people will be looking out for you to show you how we can manipulate actions to create new ones, and take advantage of a glitch or two to create havoc all in the name of fun (;

I can't wait to read the next installments!

Thanks for the kind words,

Thanks for the kind words, everyone!

The next article will actually be about The Graveyard, then The Path, and finally FATALE, just so you know.

If I feel I have anything more to say about TEF, I'll update the existing post. If there are any essential elements to the game you feel I've missed or misrepresented, don't hesitate to let me know!

Your article is so true about

Your article is so true about everything in the forest! Before playing it, i have played many mmorpg... but i saw that is not what i truly wanted. People curse each other with mean words, fights, racism and stuff, and i was full of a game who make me more sad than happy.

When i first met TEF was different. The environment, the caring people, make me want to live everyday at least a few hours of this caring world. And now i know im happy with it. Smiling
