Trying Something New

So I learned of this game when I sought out more work from Tale of Tales, having purchased and played The Path previously. What I saw of The Endless Forest looked interesting and when I searched for screenshots I was amazed by beautiful deer-like beings, all in different colors and patterns. I did some research.

I learned the game was an MMO and my interest peaked. Tale of Tales did an MMO? After seeing how they approached The Path, I couldn't imagine how they would approach an MMO. I continued my research. I learned the game has no goals and no means of communication and I was confused. An MMO with no dailouge? No speech? How was this going to work?

I quickly assumed the idea was to get players to communicate with each other in a more priminal manner and my theory was confirmed when I actually played. The idea is certainly a strange one, but I don't want to rush to bad conclusions about it.

I was very impressed by The Path, which I consider as a work of art, so I am now setting out to try my hand at this new game. I have generally positive ideas about it so far and I hope it proves to be just as wonderful as I suspected it to be. I will catalouge my ventures with this in a blog.

Actually I like the idea of

Actually I like the idea of not being able to speak. TEF wouldn't be the same with chat and I think it's enough to have gestures. Sometimes I wish there were more possibilities to interact with things. More gestures, more dances. Well, I play a lot of Team Fortress 2 at the moment, too, and TEF is a diversion i really enjoy, while drawing or drinking coffee Eye

When playing "games" like Second Life for example, where you can be an animal, too, I always desperately wished there was no chat. The animals had gestures and sounds, but nobody used it and the chat was full of unnecessary spam that just didnt fit

Holy crap, I'm playing this

Holy crap, I'm playing this game on the side of Team Fortress 2 as well!
About the game though, the lack of chat isn't ruining things for me so far, so all is good I suppose.

I don't mind the lack of chat. I just wish that I was better at communicating. I tend to run away when I'm confused. LMFAO
