    There's also a possibility of it being a facelift for the existing game. I could be wrong but that purple fox looks a lot like an updated spirit fox form.

    It would be neat if it were a facelift for exsisting NPCs and Mobs
    But that wouldnt explain the one with the cross/case on his back like in FW vamp

    Mhh. Another motivation for me to not cash and simply ride this game out... then move on maybe. Unless they decide to move characters over. Too many unknowns...

    1. I hope this is nothing more than an expansion to current game.

    2. If this is a sequel, I hope:

    - They keep main map as 1 huge map (I hate loading between zones)

    - We get the Housing option we got cheated from this time around.

    Housing would be great! I tend to avoid games you cannot explore freely.Zone loading takes a big junk of your playing time.

    Pretty artwork but I think it needs to look a little more appropriate to the mythology of pw D:

    Looks too modern. Also, if it loses it's in -depth character customization, it will lose a lot of my interest. Making a non-cloneish TB or EG is a very difficult task, I hope they steer away from that trend b:shocked

    if this is an expansion...I look forward to it.

    If I can transfer everything from my main to it...I look forward to it.

    If on the other hand, this is a brand new game, and all of the work that I've done on Serenity is now obsolete, then there is a very very low chance that I'll play it...and if I do, I won't decicate myself as much...because this is a resounding warning against it.

    I've stayed with pwi over the years, not because I felt that it was the greatest ever...but because I worked hard in the game, had a vision of what I wanted to do, and had good friends here. Kind of a spit in the face if they don't at least offer the option to bring my character there. If they think that I'm doing this all again, they're crazy. I'll go to a private server first.

    Sidenote: Guess I should be glad that I never went R9 path, nor went super heavy in refines and shards.

    We'll see how this goes. This will either turn out very good for us...or very bad. Lol.

    Sorry but that will NEVER NEVER EVER EVER! will happen.

    If they make new game they will want you to star all over and CASH all over againb:pleased


    I have never know of a game where they transfer characters to a sequel.

    It would be nice if they remake this game with new graphics but I doubt that alone will attract new players

    Housing system has always been available and is only on the P2P version of PWI (Version 1)

    The F2P PW-CN version and our version is Version 2.

    It was stated last October/November that Wanmei had re-hired Archosaur Studios (the original developer of the game) and that they were starting R&D on upgrading the client to the Angelica 3 Engine.

    I really doubt that they're going to add the Housing option to our version as it will require a significant upgrade on the server hardware.

    I actually like that little purple fox more than the current Spirit Fox form heh.

    It'd be cool if they update the graphics a bit and stuff.
    If they make a completely new game.. I don't know if I'll play or not, I might just check it out for the heck of it. I generally don't feel like starting a new MMO because I have no time to invest in it. I'm sticking around here since I've already worked on and obtained a lot of things, already know the game mechanics etc. (plus I still have a few good friends that are playing and my faction is still pretty nice.)

    --the purple fox is the greatest monstrosity I think I've seen in a while. Its facial structure makes 0 sense and looks kind of like when you're drawing and make that mistake that you never can unsee, even though you hurry to erase it and fix what you did.
    Yeah the current purple fox is kind of 'eh' in the matter of anatomy, too, but it's mostly just anorexic with a long neck. Not like a chest, tails and legs with no midbody and chibiterrible to the next millennia.

    I don't even...

    It got even worse because I modified my post more. x3
    Really it just bothers me because I'm an anatomy nut and draw four legged critters. Design wise it's fine... in fact I always imagine the shoulder faerie wings that the spirit fox has as functional wings and mentally modify them a bit (anything to keep my headcanon away from flying manta rays), just not body structure

    Then again we don't know if it really is a Fox Form because I'd honestly find it a little weird to get our Fox Form look changed/updated again when we already have the old/regular and the new/spirit one already. Well, the update was quite a while ago already but still...on the other hand I'm all for updating the graphics/models of tame-able pets.

    maybe its an update to the old fox form to i dont know...make them match more? instead of red fox turning into a purple nine tail fox. it would be a purple fox going super sayan mode and sprouting 8 extra tails?

    My tails agree with Desdi's on this one.
    There must still be enough red foxes that we ask ourselves if science has gone too far.

    Depends how they do it. If they made it a better PWI, all new, and didn't start with packs nonsense; that'd be a year or so of a pretty good game. New things to hopefully figure out, and no hyper babies. So I'd be in, since all the impatient people would quit in the first week.

    PWI came out when the F2P mmorpg model was pretty uncommon if not unique, and that's how they got the quite large playerbase they got

    if they wipe PWI for PW2 they will surely lose 90% of current PWI playerbase, because who sane of mind wouldn't be mad at them for flooring years of efforts (time and money ones)

    and after they pass trough this, they will have to face a large comepetition of the nowadays huge pool of F2P mmorpgs that we have on the current market.

    and tbh, none but ex-PWI players would follow such title imo, too bad you just lost 90% of them

    Clearly intended for the China market.

    I highly doubt they will even try to market it here, they certainly don't bother to market PW here now.

    I am certain it will be meant as a replacement and all new, meaning the version we play in dead in the water. Our version may struggle along for a few years like the private servers versions do, but eventually the disparity between new players and the end gamers will play out, as it did with so many end of life MMO's, it may exist, but the numbers of US players will be very low.
