There is a positive and a negative side to this topic.
Like some of the Feral Heart roleplaying community, this game had been a bit educational when it comes to learning grammar and literature. To bring my personal experience into this, when I joined this game I knew little to none about grammar and struggled to write essays in school. After months finding out the basics of roleplaying I started blossoming in my english class. My grammar improved a ton and I've learned things in FH already that I would of started learning in my first two years of highschool. Now-a-days my school still hasn't improved on teaching students literacy and they are quite poor at it. If I have never joined Feral Heart I would still be poor with literacy like some other students today. I learned my grammar mostly through online dictionaries, thesauruses, chatrooms, and most of all Feral Heart. So yes, Feral Heart CAN be an educational game as far as roleplaying goes. On the negative side, Feral Heart's environment isn't all too educational. That's my opinion on this. ^^
