お楽しみはこれからだ！

So recently I've fallen back into being interested in playing pet games, and a massive win is that I got my original Neopets account back!!! This is something I'd thought about multiple times over the last decade and I wasn't sure if I would ever get the account back since I registered with a now LONG defunct email address like 20 years ago. I feel so lucky that I got it back cause I know a lot of people that contact support never hear anything back or just don't have enough information to verify their identity, but I guess just knowing the original email despite being unable to use it was enough to verify.

I don't even have anything too noteworthy on my account, but I think just being able to get it back was exciting since I spent so much time playing games on this site and just exploring in general as a kid. But now I'm trying to relearn the site after not being on it in forever. There's also a bunch of activities on the site I just never understood as a kid cause the virtual economy or whatever was just too much for my little brain. But it's been cool to venture around and I'm just happy I got it back. If anyone here plays, I'd be happy to add you :). I'm magma117 over there. Like I said, I don't have anything fancy and I guess at some point I managed to play last in like 2016 but I have literally no memory of this.

I've also been trying to play Flight Rising more. I completely forgot what I was trying to do with my dragons, so coming back to that has been strange. That and they added a BUNCH since I last played in like 2018 or so. So I've been just doing my best with what I have there and finally changed the species of my progenitors. The Harlequin gene is really cool, so I think I'm gonna mess around with that a bit.

I don't know what it is about virtual for fun economy driven games that I enjoy cause offline I hate anything involving money. Maybe it's just the fact that it's only for fun and just to immerse yourself in this virtual world. Who knows. But I am kinda sad that a lot of games like these aren't around as much anymore. I think there's something really relaxing and grounding about slow-to-play games like this. It also always gives you something to look forward to once a day, which I prefer WAY more than checking social media or the news or whatever other hellish thing first thing in the morning.
