I have been on feral 2 years, and I say over my time being here I met new people and gain new friends. When I first started I was a loner and very shy, I always wanted to talk to others but I was very scared to go up to those people, until one day player came up to me and just role played with me out of the blue. :3
We became good friends after that. Over the years being with her I met her friends they became my friends and I eventually got over my shyness and to this day I am clarified as a chatter box. However that same friend had quit playing feral heart, along with my other friends... But a couple of days later my rl friend saw me playing feral heart, She was playing way before me and because she saw me playing feral heart... She had gotten her motivation to pick up and re-play feral heart again.
This community is friendly but it does have it's ups and downs Not everyone in the community will just accept you like that. Who cares though? You can always find go lucky happy people who would love to be your friends. A lot of people I know quit feral heart for like a year or more... Then they come back a year later or so. Feral heart do have that magic feeling that makes you want to keep coming back.. Even though at times it annoys you.
It is like a love and hate relationship with this game. I do not want to be with you, but then again I really care about you.
