    Everyone's all either like "this game sucks!" or they say thats its really good. I have to say Im particualarly swayed by the people who say the game is good due to the fact that they all sound a bit like losers...

    Anyway.  The only other mmorpgs Ive played are Maple Story, which I stopped playing because it was 2D and incredibly hard for someone like me to level up, and Mabinogi, which Im considering stopping because I cant decide what profession I want to go into.

     I have come to terms with the fact that to really play any game well you need to buy something with real world money, but would I have to do that often with this game? If Im looking for a game with a good battle system and badass clothing, is this okay? Would a peverse rocker type of thirteen year old girl such as myself be into this? I have a pretty short attention span and I like to be kept entertained....

How easy do you think it is to sneak into ths zoo? I need to see some penguins like, RIGHT now...

You should definitely try the game.  At worst, you'll just have to uninstall it.

From the sound of things, I think you'll like Fiesta.  There are a ton of quests to do, and the community is really nice and helpful.  Leveling is reasonably fast, and you rarely need to purchase items from the Outspark Store.  Spend some time with it and I think you'll walk away impressed.

So far I have been enjoying the game! Granted I have only been able to play it for an hour I plan on playing it some more later.

Any game that has a little dog jumping around town is a great game in my book! =D

LOL

I was reading at Fiesta Fan that the next Fiesta patch includes all kinds of cool new stuff like weddings and a raid instance!

Hope you find more than an hour to play.

Yea, Fiesta is an MMORPG worth playing.

Look at my thread here for the latest event. :)

well i wont tell you to play or not to play, but here is what you can expect from fiesta:

really colorful graphics

tons of immature players

lots of grinding

decent music

no good end game or decent pvp

lots of botters and players who buy gold from the farmers

Nowadays its next to impossible to play ANY mmo that doesnt have gold spammers. One of the most annoying things is when the chat log in a game is swarmed with messages like "1000 gold for $19.99 @ www.xxxxxxxxx.com" over and over and over again. It gets old real quick. Good music is definately a plus, though. Besides all that, community is a large part of any mmo. Teaming up with other people to complete quests and beat bosses is key(for the most part). However, if the game itself is good enough yet the community is largely immature players arguing and making fun of newer players by calling them "n00bz" and not helping them when needed, i will still play. If thats the case then i just pay no attention to other players and do my own thing.

Dont get me wrong, sometimes it gets boring and frustrating doing super hard quests alone but if thats what it takes to enjoy the game content then i suck it up and play.  This route isnt for everyone but it works for me. After a while i'll quit the game and move on to a different one i guess.

Thank you for the heads up on what to expect in Fiesta, crunchyblack. Its good to know what im getting in to.

Its a decent game, I havent played in a while, but its still installed on my comp. Its got cute graphics, the music is rather upbeat. Combat is your standard affair, assign skills to hotbar, click to use, blah blah blah. Skills have a decent look to them, but character customization is very lacking. Th upgrade system for weapons and armor is practically luck-based, though if you manage to get it upgraded enough, there is some fairly interesting looks that are applied to your weapon.

Ive been playing this game since open beta started.

Its a good decent game, but the grindfest doesnt really begin till you reach the higher 7-9 lvls of your lvl every 10 lvls like 27-30 37-40 47-50 etc. Then the curve jumps by a huge amount after 70.

Its a good game if you can get past the mistakes that constantly get made during major patches.

Alot of what makes people dislike the game, is due to cash shop, or late warnings due to patch errors. As in they let an error go unfixed for a long time, and then when the time does come to fix it it ends up hurting alot of players in the process. But overall Great game, mediocre management. If you can get past the mediocre management then youll love the game.

The wedding sytem requires cash shop, and the boss raids aren't even logical for players until you reach about 79+. The bosses are around lvl 90+ but the cap hasnt been raised passed 89 yet.

I personally don't like the game, it has a terrible character customization, you get to choose from like three hairstyles and something around five colors, the class system is alright, but doesnt leave room for much of a variety between members of the same class. Maybe it's because I can't help but compare every MMO I play to WoW, which lets you choose between a variety of weapons in your class, but Fiesta just isn't that good. And it is a grind-tastic game, a formula I personally hate.

You can open up TONS of additional customization options by buying the Beauty Shop Coupon from the Fiesta Store (it costs about $2.00).

Before you start complaining about paying to customize your character, remember that most people don't really care what their character looks like. After all, you're just going to get all your customized options covered in armor anyway.

When was the last time you played the game? It used to be really grind-heavy, but in the last couple patches they've increased the amount of XP you get, especially from quests, so players level much, much faster now.

I personally like the game. There is a few problems still but since it is a free game it is expected.

There are occasional glicthis and the last update was hard to download.  But its a free game so why not try it.

For all that set the road before us don't let their memories die but live through our actions.
Let our action bring forth honor to not only us but for those which memories we carry.

i would suggest to not play this game. Why?  It is a complete waste of time, and eventually becomes a 24/7 grind fest.  Take from first hand experience, I played when it was in CB and OB, and got to the level 65 before quiting.  The quests are extremely dull and repititive, there so called "community", is nothing but a group of friends who control the forums and game play.  To make matters worst, the game is constant facing problems with development and the release of cash shop items.   In order to become "godly" in this game having +9 gear is REQUIrED, otherwise killing goes super slow. Its much pretty a total grind fest game after you hit your early level 40's and from there on you have to grind constantly on same mobs in order to level up. Quests and Kingdom quests can only help so much.
To sum it all up, if your looking to kill some time, then try Fiesta with some friends, it'll be a fun experience, Anything after level 40, and your just wasting time when you could be doing other things. Sparkcash is a waste of money, I having spent 50 on enhancing items (biggest waste of money ever). Your more likely to spend the money on sparkcash and buy a pay 2 play game instead. I don't recommend this game, becasue having gotten to level 65, I've seen what the game does to people; gets them addicted, 24/7 grinding straight without sleep,etc, I suggest trying another game instead of this.

  I played a lot too, till level 48 and I have to completely agree with PU_TANG_PIE. No game that requires grinding all the time is fun. Maybe I chose the wrong game for me, that could be a reason... others may find this gameplay attractive, but not me. I like to have something to do when I don't want to continue grinding, and not those silly adventures or crafting to be a salesman... well, gotta go to another game.

Anyways, feel free to try it, people who like cute and itembased games may like it

Hello,

I don't suggest you to play at this game, community is bad and staff even worse.

Look at this photobucket: s1017.photobucket.com/albums/af299/LadylVlarian/

And these are only some of the insults you get when you play at this game..

And my friend here, was permabanned after all the insults she got.
