I've played a bit over the past couple months, though I've gotten bored of mabi again. But I can show a lil pic of what I was working on.

The touhou fans should instantly recognise her. But for those of you who aren't familiar with Touhou, look up Koishi Komeiji.

In other news, here's a fun thing you can do with those Easter event baskets.

Wow! That's like.. a near-perfect likeness. Very impressive, but perhaps a touch too yellow.
The downside, I cannot, for the life of me, seem to figure out how in with my more recent account, that we here are familiar with. Guess I'll go kick around my previous system when I get my hands back on it over the weekend. ><
For what it's worth, when you launch DFO from Steam, it makes you log in every time. If Mabinogi's like that, then you should be able to just log on to your usual account if you launch again. I think.

You should all look at this, it's magical.

So I finally switched to a system that doesn't overheat at the mere mention of Mabinogi and tried logging on via Steam-- Woo! First thing I do is associate Steam to my original account, which dates back to when Mabinogi was in beta. Still haven't rebirthed yet, either.

You miiiight have to detatch your current account from steam (not sure how you'd do that, I can look into it if you like), and re attach the new account. Alternately you can just try logging in with the new account and see what happens. If you haven't done that already, anyway.

Wouldn't you know it, I recently read through an LP of a touhou themed turn based strategy game, and while it had a ton of various characters, this one isn't in it.

Still, looks good for sure! Mabi's character customization is pretty great, thinking about it.

SO this is like a dress-up doll MMO? Do you go on dates and stuff?

It's pretty much your standard-fare mmo, in that you play it mainly to just get your char ever stronger, while hanging out with friends. It does have an above average main storyline, you can do as well. And it does heap a lot of extra powers on you if you do it. But yes you can treat it as a dress-up mmo if you like, as there are plenty of different outfits, for you to mix and match and dye to your hearts content. And yeah I suppose you could roleplay dating to go with the marriage system. But then again most mmos have marriage in them already, so that is hardly unique to mabi.

Well i played Mabi for some time but i got tired of the low FPS and frequent crashes i keep getting on my PC so i decided to stop playing it untill i upgrade it.

Anyway Mabi IS fun but at the same time actually getting somewhere is tedious and amazingly slow.
I mean hell. I got to grade A (or was it 9?) blacksmith and getting anything past that is HELL incarnate since you have to make hundreds of items to progress.

Anyway if you can stomach the chibi anime look and horrible horrible grind it's an awesome game.

Yeah I know it's easy to poke fun at this, but the combat system is pretty damn good for such a cutesy looking thing. And thankfully the combat mostly relies on skill more then skill ranks (although those certainly help). It probably won't last you very long if you're just trying out the combat, admittantly, but luckily it's free!

With that said, yes, the crafting skills are a rediculous grind. At least there's a (substantial) reason for them now, with the demonic weapons! Seriously, they are rediculous.

Hmm... i tired reinstalling mabi so that i can play it via steam (just to check on the guild ETC) but steam seems to be less than interested in downloading the game

Nexon games and steam have rarely gotten along well. Just gotta keep at it I'm afraid!

Also, if you associate a Nexon ID with Steam, you can't unassociate them. Darn it.

Yeah it looks like you have to contact nexon with that, and good luck with that. Alternately, you can go to your steamapps folder and start the .exe from there. I dunno if it'll still have the steam overlay but it'll let you log in with whatever account you like that way.

I'm getting tired of the inventory juggling needed to stockpile all the silk I've been producing. So if anyone is interested in doing tailoring, let me know. I'll send it all your way. I have no interest whatsoever myself. I've got mostly cheap silk, but a bit of other type too.
