Here I am, second post in three minutes. o.o Anyway, does anybody here happen to play Fiesta? ... No one? OK. Well, Fiesta is a game managed by Gamigo, a german company that have created a generous amount of games, ALL free, and ALL online. Well, Fiesta happens to be just about the worst game I've played! Why?
1) Loads of 2D stuff
2) AWFUL graphics. Textures are terrible, and the models are just disgusting. Lots of monsters have squared feet.
3) Seriously bad lag. The client has really bad memory leak issues, so after playing for not even three minutes, the lag accumulates and you get awful performance.
4) Loads of bugs, including broken quests, missing items, NPCs not talking to you, animation glitches, etc.
5) Let's not forget that it has one of the worst translations I have ever seen in my life. Map names and monster names in german, weapon effects in german, and so on, NPC's dialogue in german...
6) Pathetic story lines. The quests are extremely basic and a five-year-old could have done better. ALWAYS the same - either go and kill this, or bring me this, or take this to someone, or listen to this. NEVER a proper storyline.
7) Absolutely NO interaction. Surroundings do not change with what you do (they're not illuminated by spells, your shadow doesn't go on walls, grass doesn't move when you step on it, there's no wind, etc.) All you can do is kill enemies, pick up items they drop, or gather wood or herbs from trees and plants.
8) VERY small maps.
9) There's a severe lack of life in the game. There are barely any NPCs in the cities, their dialogue is always the same...
10) There are many repeated enemies, and hardly any different ones. Most foes are completely identical to each other, even if they're different people/creatures (ogres look exactly the same as each other, and there's 3 types of ogres).
11) Very bad website.
12) Hardly anybody on the Englsih server.
So why do I play it? There might be very few people, but the ones that are on are almost always very friendly, talkative, helpful, and nice. If it weren't for the players, I would have left that game long ago.
