[Justg]

Hey folks, please let us know your thoughts on the holiday content here, thanks!

[starr951]

Soo im doin the rescue quest, im pressing the captured elves, interacting with them. But theyre not getting counted =( yet for everyone i was playin with they are...
Help? =(

[Matutd]

I needed to free the elves... I got to 9, finished the game, killed the boss, and then it wouldn't let me back in, even though I had like 4 hours left, now I can't get my wings :(

[WoundedEagle]

Bought 5 plat packs just to get gingerbread. Other than that, great! :)

[largecommand]

Wow Once u kill boss u cant reenter. :(

[gnardog666]

Wheres tht quest at?

[Ikke_Tom]

been told after you kill boss you have to repay 2 plat. wow if thats true this is a ripoff in my opinion, another bad turn of sts in favor of money instead of user experience

[WoundedEagle]

Wow really? I payed for it and the left as soon as I entered. *not cool* STS

[Skeletonlord]

Wheres tht quest at?

You buy the dungeon winter festival for 2 plat, and then get it at the start of the map.
I'm enjoying it so far, but do you need to keep buying the levels to do them? I've only done the rescue quest, and I feel there isn't anything else to do for free.

[starr951]

And now i cant enter? I didnt kill the boss, and still had plenty of time...
=(

[LwMark]

So i bought 2plats it said 4hrs an 10 mins i killd boss an i got to repay wth!!..just make it free or somethin idk ripd offff

Not a big fan of holiday stuff in any game, but I do always just try to give it a shot.

Just a few concerns:

1. Payment per entry. Although I understand the need to make plat off the campaign itself, I don't think per entry is the best way to convey it. Fixed amount for 24 hours maybe? Less "issues" IMO.

2. When paying plat to enter maps, I think it may be possible to enter a map as closed to finished as possible. Not sure if it's possible to enter a finished map. Two issues here, you could miss the boss and/or you lose the experience for playing the christmas content.

3. Not easy to follow the quest series or appropriate NPCs. Managed to get the chain done (I think, I can't seem to find any more quests), but it took me awhile to just find the actual connecting NPCs. I would imagine the same for other players.

4. Do joining the maps charge 2 plat as well? Saw people join through list, not sure whether they're still meant to pay or it's free.

Hoping the feedback isn't too premature, it's just what I've noticed.

2 Plat PER RUN???? And here come the flameballs!

[Tosses first]

[Epic Unicorns!]

I really don't understand why we have to pay. I guess they wanted to limit farming to the rich? So, to make some money, you have to make REAL money. I would love if it was 10 plat for old items and unlimited farming. This is not like a Christmas festival... it is more like "see how much plat you wanna spend for greens and purples."

[drewcapu]

not gonna bother if it's anything more than one flat fee per account

sorry sts

[Xazic]

The 2 plat each run is a little disappointment...

[WoundedEagle]

not gonna bother if it's anything more than one flat fee per account

sorry sts

Same. Not cool.

[FluffNStuff]

not gonna bother if it's anything more than one flat fee per account

sorry sts

I CAN NOT BELIEVE THIS! How long have we been talking about and looking forward to the winter festival? Probably since the end of the last one! Building twinks, working on strategies, turning blind eyes to questionable STS practices, all in excitement of the Winter Festival. I met so many people during it last year, having a great time on my twinks interacting with, encouraging and helping new low level players. And now that is all gone. Well, MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!

Did you guys hire Bill Murray or something?

Can somebody say the Grinch Stole Christmas? I know I can.

Let me just get this straight about what we have.

You promised us new items, that is correct. Wait, wut? ALL of the items cost platinum in one way or another?

You promised us new content. Wait, wut? New content is the SAME map from last year with winter festival items that have new looks but the same stats? Allrighty...

Let me calculate how long it will take me to farm items I want efficiently: Parenthesis stand for multiplication.

(2P for 1 time access)(20 platinum for Shamrock Elixir to farm efficiently)(Roughly 5 runs in an hour?) So, this campaign can cost me anywhere from 10-50 platinum per hour? This is an all time low.

I'm not sure if you guys realize, but MANY of the players of both SL and PL are at our last nerves for how expensive the game has gotten. I'm starting to see myself as a dollar value rather than a customer.

I'm fine with paying for vanity packs. Paying per instance is crossing the line though and shows the greed I've been trying to deny for a while now.

Thank you all for the wonderful Christmas and act of gift giving y'all have so spectacularly shown.
