Hey, hive! How's everyone doing? Alright, let's talk about 9Dragons—does it still hold up in 2025? I was playing the other day, and a player asked me this in-game. It got me thinking...
Lol, bro, in your video, you say you are here to make new friends. I was in your league for a month. I was a top player back during acclaim and gc. So I ask about all the new changes, where to focus. What gear I should be looking for and you tell me to go to your YouTube videos. Which honestly ****, and aren't very helpful. So you want to make new friends, but totally ignore people in your league? LOL ok bro. That's partly why this game is dead, not a good community anymore. The entire game now is about run to the end, there's no reason having any of the 5 original grind maps or dungeons. So does this game hold up? He'll no, this game is a sham of what it once was.
When I told you to watch my videos, it was certainly to optimize the explanation. And what's most intriguing here is that you didn't question any of this personally, but for some reason, you held onto some resentment. It's also surprising that you're still here, considering you talk badly about the game and participate in the forums. At the very least, it's curious.
I dont watch them, they are not very informative on helping players learn anything about this games mechanics, atleast none that i saw. Go learn from full Neos guides on how to make helpful content, he was the master of this game and helping new people. and me giving an honest opinion about a game I've seen handled better is perfectly within my rights. I'm not just going to run screaming away from the game, I stuck around because I've found a better league, one that is helpful and friendly. In life you won't always like what is happening, but you can voice your opinion, and keep going. I dont hold a resentment, I'm just laughing at the fact that you say you wanna make friends in a game, yet ignore people in your own league who wanna learn and grow and be a part of your dead league. And ya, after you tell me to go watch videos instead of actually being helpful, I'm not going to bother asking you anything anymore, it was like you just want to boost your YouTube numbers. I've played this in the past for a very long time, and our league would always make new players feel welcome and would help them with questions and help them learn the game. There is a lot less of that now, it's all about selling gear for billions of dollars to alts, not a lot of new players coming into the game, and with the current attitude, it won't hold new people's attention. The less new players that come to play and spend in IM the less reason there is to publish the game, so that's why I say this game doesn't hold up in 2025 vs 2008. Nothing to be "curious" about.
So, I'm an old player just like you, I played during the Acclaim era too, and I played during the GC time. I’ve always interacted with many other players, always helped and continue helping several players. If you take the time to inform yourself better, you’ll see videos of me helping newbies and organizing events where I donate items and even BSS. You keep saying that I didn’t help you, that you left the league because I ignored you, but honestly, I don’t remember that, especially since you didn’t identify yourself here. Another thing is, just because I’m online doesn’t mean I’m actively playing; I could very well be AFK or have the game minimized. If you want to vent your frustration at someone, try another person, I’m sure you’re upset with the wrong person. As for being in another league that suits you better, I’m happy for you. You really have to find what’s best for you. Anyway, I’ll end my comments here and wish you peace and success on your journey.
Hey! Honestly, 9Dragons still has its charm if you're into classic grindy MMOs with a martial arts vibe. The mechanics feel dated, but the community keeps it alive. Some features aged well, others… not so much. If you’re in for nostalgia or chill grinding, it’s still worth a shot!
