This is regarding the game, yet not, so I have no idea where this is supposed to be posted.

OK, so I've been playing for only a few days now, but every time I get to the login screen I can't help but give a little chuckle when I watch the four dancing ... what on earth are they anyway?

Every time I watch them I see something new to chuckle at, like the one who lights the fire shaking it's head when the one drops off the vine and lands on it's back or the other one by the fire face palming.

Who came up with that scene and does it change with each patch/version or is it always the same? If it's different each version/patch does someone have a video of the old ones to watch?

    Press <Enter> twice to skip the video and pop-up.

    The video is always the same, and it came with the Earth Guard expansion.

    The older versions weren't that amusing. The Tidoborn expansion was just an aquatic scene with fish swimming past... I'm afraid I didn't remember what the previous ones were... I seem to remember leaves falling or something.

    But that's the first one that seemed to have an actual scene... at least as far as I can remember. It's clever, and cute. Half the time, I don't have the heart ot skip past it. b:pleased

    The orginal screen was like a waterfall with a gazebo and bamboo leaves being blown in the wind. As funny as the new one is the orginal is still my favorite. I cant remember the one for the expansion that added the genies. I don't remember if they even changed it for that.b:puzzled but yes I agree they can be amusing to look at when you log on. XD

    I remember the first time I saw it. I laughed so hard. The creative team for this expansion did very well.
    Censorship is the bane of creativity. Censorship is the bane of personality. Most of all...censorship is the bane of identity.

    My main is Ivy_. I'm better known as Destini. Also known as _Yvi. Yes, I have an identity crisis. b:chuckle

    Looking for a signature for this character. Wanna make me one?

    me too, i think i almost fell out of my chair. i actually closed and reopened the client to i could watch it again.



    TBH though, nothing beats the beauty of the original scene. That was really pretty.
    Things said during a Twizted faction PK session:
    Slayer_of_Souls: you guys are such suck ups. none of you have attacked twid.
    Twiddzly(fac leader): no, sere killed me already.
    Slayer_of_Souls: he's out there waiting for us, isn't he. i'm gonna die.
    Sereneai: b:sin why don't you come find out.
    Kinglkaruga: you go first dule.
