Nice design, and I love the G3D preview videos! It looks just like it should look. But you should work on these items icons, they dont fit the rest

I think the videos of Graal3D look really good. I'd actually love to play it. However, not to be rude, but as far as the Christmas Card thing goes, you should probably have had someone look over the english before you sent it out.

This is awesome. I was wondering when this newsletter would come out and boom, I wake up and it's there. Graal 3D looks awesome and overall I'm impressed.

Looks pretty good. But I do wonder how the more complex areas are going to look. But it looks like the gameplay seems pretty smooth and adventurous...I cant believe I just said gameplay on graal. Wish the 2d servers would get some.

The newsletter says you get a Candy Sword on GK... it's been stated in multiple places you don't. Might want to fix that.

And it might help to have someone who has English as their first language proofread and polish things like this.

Otherwise, sounds cool.

Great to see you're using the gralats idea. I also like that you're using real prizes and stuff that can be won. Let's just hope that the in-game items and stuff that you can buy with the gralats are actually worth the money, and not just stuff that should be available to everyone to begin with.

There's definitely a right way and a wrong way of doing the pay thing... if you make people pay to access levels or fly in balloons then it's going to get ugly... if you let people buy special clothing items or experience boosters then it wouldn't be so bad.

Just remember that nobody wants to pay $30+ for yearly access PLUS extra money just to get more things that should come standard...

I thought $19 was reasonable.



btw on a related note:
I found the e-mail I printed out when I got confirmation that I created my graal account in the bottom of a hamper filled with old VHS movies! I was like "YES!" because now if lose my account password again I can be like the only guy to ever actually have the confirmation code thingy.

Exactly. Paying for perks are almost always better then a pay-to-play service.

I still suck at GS2 and now it looks like Graal 3D is well and truly on it's way...i hope the language used in Graal 3D just expands on GS2 but i doubt it =p

That looks like fun though. I'd be happy playing in that dungeon in a friendly team environment .
