oh Firebreather fucks and I genuinely hate Carnivore in a very "this only looks good in specific colors and it otherwise borderline squicks me" way. Wish we could've just gotten Firebreather for the ancients too :S

I agree, that carnivore gene sucks ass they should keep it the same color as the color it is for instead of pairing it with....unmatchy AF colors. I got excited thinking this would look great on triple imps I'm breeding right now but alas, kinda ruins them.

My pet peeve with Carnivore is the cartoony jagged mouth. Y'all couldn't have given these dragons lips or gums??

I like the concept of firebreather but it sure does look like lorwolf's stripes in execution. It does not feel polished to me and looks very awkward on a lot of colors.

Another thing that irks me about firebreather is that it looks the same when you go through a whole color range, with very little variation. Look at the orange and yellow ranges and you will see what I mean.

my petty complaint: having there be a "restore an exalted progen" achievement with a reward, when getting that means you need to have... exalted a progen in the first place. no way I'm doing that, both bc of the time it would take to remove and re-add the outfit/familiar/bio/etc. and bc tbh it would just stress me out too much to do even knowing they'd come back ;_;

God. Same. Way easier for someone who is new and hasn't spent as much time working on their progens. I've never exalted mine either and I kind of resent that it's required for an achievement.

Bio stays the same if it's of any comfort.

They did a great job with this. I’m surprised how many achievements were carried over and already unlocked. Very impressive

my issue is i HAVE already restored a progen. i did it several years ago. so i am a little bitter i don't get the achievement because of that. :/ i'm definitely not doing it again, my progens are integral to my clan lore. and i love them.

that achievement is fucking stupid and shows the devs dont even remotely play their own game, why would i exalt my progen for an achievement? just idiotic to add an achievement for an emergency site function

what is next, write a support ticket to get an achievement?

ayrt

after looking at it in different combos, I can definitely see that now. It makes me think of a half-body Crackle in which some colors just don't look super flattering with it and some combos I thought it'd look good in just fall a bit flat.

not to be a debbie downer, the achievements are neat, but i wish they would take more into account what you have done, like there are things that are obvious that you have done them and the data is here, like exalted dragons or that you have certain vistas, but those achievements dont trigger because reasons....

the new system is good for new players and it basically says fuck you to the players that stuck around with the site for the last 10 years and we have to do basically all the shit over again we did ages ago, doing fucking all the swipp trades is just pain

...

The progen one is free and unlimited. It's really not a huge deal relatively speaking.

I have more issue with the one for restoring a non progen, putting your restore on cooldown. I'm lucky as I have credit somehow.

I am not going to undress my progen, save the bio, move it out of the hibden, exalt it and then restore it for an achievement which is actually a site function to help players to restore their lost dragons? Not to mention which giant spike of anxiety it would give me to exalt my beloved progen?!?!?

Am I really the only one thinking that is fucking stupid and should not be an achievement?

why is doing this such a hassle go when theres achievements for making 100mT and awakening 1000 fams. this is annoying yes but it's literally a 10 minute situation tops

na

The anxiety is what will keep me from doing this one lol.

But I'm not too fussed about one achievement.

Re: 10th Anniversary

The issue is that awakening familiars and earning treasure are achievements that you will eventually earn through average expected game play. They might take fucking forever, but they aren't asking you to do something that some players would never do. Exalting progens is something that a lot of people find objectionable or actively distressing.

A lot of those achievements have already been activated for you if you have done them as an old player?

I think you're overreacting a bit. Because there is worse. The one I pointed out? Has a 3 month cooldown.

Progen, yea it sucks, but it's an inconvenience at best. I'll do it next time I unden and redress mine... Which will probably be never.

However, putting your 3 month restore on cooldown unexalting a non progen could result in you losing a normal dragon in the case of a mistaken exalt later.

They're both stupid, but you're blowing up at the better of the two. Progens are stored intact and you get them back the same. I've had someone tell me their profile was intact.

Neither should be an achievement.
