You should just be able to extract the installer as a folder and then just run it once you move it where you want it to be. I have no idea where that registry editing comes from.

Well it's a lot simpler than I made it out to be but it's still kind of annoying having to go into regedit for a game I used to meet the recommended specifications for. I do it because it's one of the few MMOs that keeps me coming back for more, and it has since a little after Open Beta got out.

I wasn't a beta tester but my god I remember when you saw people with "the Beta Tester" title on Mari all the damn time. I keep on making new accounts though since I've got shit memory and as a result I forget my log-in information if I don't write it down somewhere. I'll be back ingame somehow with a new account since it's happened yet again, but at least this time I didn't lose around $200 of virtual goods like I did on at least two or three of my other accounts. I've spent maybe $500 on Mabinogi since I started buying NX in 2009, mostly on pets and rebirth cards.

You people play on Alexina right? I might be able to get set up there again within the next month or two, but don't count on it for sure since my memory is shit and half the time if I don't write it down or ask someone to remind me I forget within about twenty or thirty minutes. Hope to see you guys ingame soon, after I fix the latest fuck-up my computer is having.

Dedicated crafting is such a timesink.

Made another account to make a crafter and try out an elven mage. They're both outside the guild though. Also, I'm eyeing everything that wants leather suspiciously. Really need a good way to get leather. Maybe a skinning skill that can be used on enemy corpses before they go poof? Just saying Korea. Get on it.

There has been talk of a skill that increases leather/ingredient drop rates, far in the future... like way far.... like after the rebalance AND the singing thing AND those new alchemy things AND maybe an updated fashion thing.... so we're talking next spring most likely. Nothing to get hyped over.

Apparently it's only by 5% too but I am not one who works with leather so I don't know if that's a huge amount or if it's just something to look good on your skill list
You people play on Alexina right?
This is true.

So does anybody need copper or silver ingots? Or gold or silver ore? I got some that's just sitting here cluttering my bank...

I hate the Mabinogi tutorial more than any other tutorial in any game I've ever played. Why the hell did they have to make such a causal thing? What the hell was wrong with interacting with the NPCs and asking them about Skills and what have you? Why the hell do they have to treat you like a retarded moonchild and force you into the tutorial without any option of perhaps skipping it? I like the rest of the game except the god damn tutorial and maybe the frequency of events in the game and how said events make most parts of the game unbearable to be in.

Oh, and look for Malkavmaddie on Alexina I guess. I won't be on too much until I'm more or less taken care of on the computer front and don't have to spend twenty minutes just to get to the login screen, but I might be there I guess.

They thought the players needed more hand-holding...?

Send the copper to me as it's useless and I can convert it. The other stuff comes down to who needs it at the time. Donryu or Laur would be the people to ask. Donryu is alexwazer on the forum and Laur would be girlinhat. If you just want to send it to someone, Laur is usually the one that accepts the most donations.

Those tutorials are especially annoying when you started as one talent, changed to another, and then changed back. They make you do the tutorial for, say, mages every time you choose the mage talent. Even though you have some of the most advanced skills the set has to offer at ridiculously high ranks. I'm pretty sure we've joked about that ingame more than once before.

Also, can someone see if the new skills (engineering and the like) are implemented with this EP? Gotta see if it's time for the biggest grind of the century year month.
(although reaching r1 magic craft might not be worth the trouble, all the current recipes are r3 and below... guess if I really love success %s)

And as a very unrelated side note: I heard thunder isn't worth ranking up past 5. Is this true, and if so, can I get an explanation?

As far as we know, it's coming out after this coming EP, but before the next EP. soooo probably with the server check.

Hence why I'm going to prefer to play Mabinogi while doped up on caffeine, and I say doped up because caffeine makes me feel kind of drunk and sedated after the initial two hours. Otherwise Devcat will be shitting blood when I'm through with them, metaphorically-speaking. Let it be known that I hate tutorials that happen to treat you like you're dumber than a sack of retarded puppies and have nothing but contempt for loathsome fuckers that think every single god damn gamer is a fucking casual.

Also just to clarify Malkavmaddie is on Alexina. For some reason she took Archery as a talent and was forced to sit through the Archery and Melee Combat tutorials last night. At least she's level 12 now.

I've not made a character for -years- but most every quest, you can 'Give Up' if that helps?

To be fair, it REALLY NEEDS that tutorial. It cuts down alot of the complaints from the steam folks.

Nope, not these. It is quite embarrassing.

They're not bad the first time you actually do them, if you didn't now how to play.

The bad part is even if you have a Memorial character (which you can't anymore) you STILL have to do them.
