@ami_utsukushii

ya know something that isn't discussed much, that I see at least, is those retired travels :wink: ... but seriously

I mean why not consider a re-release for them as well ? ...

I've payed CC for retired travels, but wouldn't mind them becoming available again too ... within even...

Say this every single time.....

What people pay for their creatures is not Egg Cave's responsibilty. That is between you and the other person. Never, ever trade more then you are willing to give without complaining. Every site I play on re-release. It's fundamental to keep older players happy and n...

@despair
Yeah xD but whatever percentage would fit.

But with every decision ever made, there's always a percentage of people made happy and a percentage made unhappy. And a re-release has happened before so the "keep their word" thing cant really be used cause its already happened ya know...

As I approach on a year with this site I envision my participation with egg cave as week to week or month to month with short term vision because of my personal situations I can not really consider that I'll still be on egg cave next year much less 3-4 years ...

I realize I may be an outlier ......

lykhaos117 • 29 July 2015 at 5:06 PM

@bluewolf

I like your idea of having new super rare creatures. Regardless of whether there's a rerelease, I believe this should be considered. 😊

@iceiceice

I agree with you. To be honest, I'm more interested in people's reasoning than the outcome of the topic itself. I think that this is a good...

netherling • 29 July 2015 at 4:36 PM

With all of this, it can be discussed maturely if we talk about what's good or bad for the site, not for what's good or bad for us as users. Or maybe a little of that mixed in, but not like...with shots.

@yam

If people want things, they can work towards them. This site has done very well for 6 years now with retiring creatures and making new ones, and if it ain't broke don't fix it.

yam • 29 July 2015 at 4:23 PM

@bluewolf

I would disagree with your "that's just life" argument. What part of life is and SHOULD BE virtually unobtainable for newly born generations? and even if it currently is, since I understand that with the wealth gap a lot of things are, SHOULD IT BE THAT WAY?


Once again, I do...

okami • 29 July 2015 at 4:20 PM

@yam

Only every month when creatures are advertised to be "gone forever." So unless forever means a couple of years, that it the sites word.

And people can still perfectly enjoy the site without having every creature they possibly want. And newbies now will have rare creatures in a coupl...

yam • 29 July 2015 at 4:19 PM

@dawnfur

ok. Well i will admit i wasn't there for that so i don't know the details of what happened and what people were mad about. Was it about the concept of a rerelease in general or because too many cash shop creatures were being rereleased with no real need?

Idk, i kind of think that if we ca...

yam • 29 July 2015 at 4:16 PM

@bluewolf

could you show me where eggcave PROMISED that publically, and whether this was before or after the first rerelease?

This is about more than accountability and lessons. It's about the site's enjoyability and success. Think about 10 years down the road. So many creatures will be unobtaina...

okami • 29 July 2015 at 4:13 PM

@ami_utsukushii

Yes, I always keep my word. Because I know better than to give my word on something that I know might not happen or that I couldn't keep. I don't give my word then, I just try my best. Eggcave said that past creatures wouldn't be rereleased. And it's different because this is also a...

yam • 29 July 2015 at 4:02 PM

@metaphor

I must say I really agree with you. And, even if most people want "Rare" creatures for the status, I think that shouldn't be the direction the site takes. Yes it may be the status quo, but that doesn't mean it's right. The point of this site, once again, is to ADOPT CREATURES YO...

metaphor • 29 July 2015 at 3:59 PM

@despair

"I'm betting that the reason most people even want certain creatures in the first place is just because they're considered "rare.""

Sorry, but here is where I have to disagree with you. As I mentioned in an earlier post, when people join the site, chances are they are...

okami • 29 July 2015 at 3:59 PM

@dawnfur

So you're saying that all the creatures available now and all the ones you have now aren't anything at all? It's possible to trade up towards goals. I started off like everyone else with no knowledge of trading or values. But I learned, and I traded for some of my goals. Yeah, it takes tim...

yam • 29 July 2015 at 3:55 PM

I think a rerelease, if done in a controlled, limited way, would be beneficial for the players and for the site.

Those of you talking about the worth of the creatures decreasing, well, that would be a problem if there was some economy on this site that was fragile. But from what I've seen, there is...

rosaline_kaye • 29 July 2015 at 3:41 PM

Quoted from @ami_utsukushii 's profile page;

"RANT WARNING:I am a firm supporter of re-releases because:

Older creatures are hard to come by for new users, it's pretty much impossible. And its not just new users, it's users who have been here for any amount of time and missed opportunities. O...

despair • 29 July 2015 at 3:39 PM

Call me what you want, but I stand behind what Eggcave said,

I can't possibly make a better argument than "The site itself has said this will not happen."

Edit:

@bluewolf That seems to be the common thing now. Someone makes a sound-argument and everyone who disagrees gets agitated.

Fu...

@rosaline_kaye
I may not have been on the site as long as you, but I've been on for a while. I have put effort into it. Ever since i started on the site. But as the years go by, creatures got harder and harder to get, and what could've gotten me a dreamie back then is nothing compared to what could...

@Ian

First of all, I must say, I'm glad to see the idea is being seriously taken into consideration, because I truly believe that, If done in the correct way, it could bring a lot of positive things for both the site & the users playing in it.
So, thank you very much for considering it & he...

metaphor • 29 July 2015 at 3:05 PM

@despair

Well, to be fair, @ian did mention in his first post that creatures were never meant to be retired and then forever unobtainable. Now, is that a lack of foresight on his part? Probably. But I understand what he's saying as well and would be willing to hear him and others out about re-relea...

lykhaos117 • 29 July 2015 at 3:04 PM

Also, I think that the important thing to consider, regardless of the final outcome, is the principles by which Egg Cave stands by. According to the FAQ, Egg Cave is a fun adoptables web site where you can adopt creatures, share them, take care of them, and make new friends. I believe that ev...

netherling • 29 July 2015 at 2:57 PM

@Ian
I honestly love this idea. People want to be upset about their cove not being so rare anymore, but the things is, re releases will make a lot of people happy. So if someone's cove isn't super rare anymore, its ok. People are trying to get around $80-$90 dollars worth of CC for creatures, and re...

okami • 29 July 2015 at 2:53 PM

@metaphor

It basically is asking for a given handout when one wants a 10k cc valued creature to become available to the public.

The 'newbies' now will have creatures that are highly sought after in a few years. It's just about waiting for the value to increase, as older users have done.

I don't...

metaphor • 29 July 2015 at 2:45 PM

I think @iceiceice makes a good point that is kind of the heart of the issue here: there is a great gap between the young and the old.

The older players have been here through almost every creature release. They've seen which creatures area big hit right from the start and are therefore consistentl...

metaphor • 29 July 2015 at 2:24 PM

@rosaline_kaye I forgot to ping @despair too sorry.

I don't want to start any controversy, but if you don't mind, I'm going to counter your point about "destroying values." Please note that I am not making any personal attacks, and you are as entitled to your views as I am mine. I just wa...

Ian • 29 July 2015 at 8:12 AM

Hello!

Over the last several weeks, I've been reading more and more topics on Egg Cave about potential species rereleases and I've been seeing growing support for it. I thought that I would open an official discussion here, where players can share their suggestions for a fair and reasonable way for...

LEs are limited edition. As in they retire. The B day critters are LEs since they do not stay in the cave and was only for an event/holiday.

LEs can also be ones from event like the Halloween events and Valentine events.

CC critters are also limited edition critters but people us...
