Fabled Fantasies Online

celeste • 25 June 2013 at 6:04 AM

Fabled Fantasies Online is arguably one of the most successful MMORPGS in existence. It has multiple platforms, including computer, console and tablet. Over 10 million players are on it monthy. The experience is known to be completely and utterly addictive - with some particularly hardcore gamers playing for days on trying to complete a single quest - the difficulty of such 'satisfyingly' increasing as the game goes on.

To those unfamiliar to the game, we have a quick guide. There are only two different races in the game - human and elf. We have the creator of the game, who likes to be known under the penname 'Celeste', to explain this choice.

"I wanted to retain a human perspective on the whole game itself. People will find their characters a lot more relatable if human-like in form. However, we also want a fantasy appeal, which is why we chose to have elves. We are, however, unveiling a new race - animal hybrids."

Celeste did not say any more after that.

She rubbed her hands together gleefully. Project: Immerse was really going well. Why else did she have only human-like races? For this, of course. It had been way too long since she'd had any power in this company, but this project was just about to prove otherwise. She had addicted players who'd do anything to, well, go into the game. She was going to use them. She was going to put their lives on the line (hah, punny) and then get the power she'd so deserved. If those idiot directors didn't comply, she'd simply end their lives. No, actually, a fate worse than death. They loved this game, right? Wouldn't it be fitting if they became part of the game...?

Project: Immerse will begin.

There are three worlds in Fabled Fantasies Online - Aluucoria, Tessiam and Buyalia, in the order of 'easiest' to 'hardest'. All players in Project: Immerse will start from Aluucoria - no matter how far ahead they were previously. If a player loses all of their health (where it would normally result in death), they will become part of the game - usually, a backdrop with very few words, or, at worst, a weak enemy in Aluucoria, constantly respawned.

There are three levels of non-boss enemies - Tier 1, Tier 2 and Tier 3, from easiest to hardest. In the game, all of the enemies are referred to as these, not as individual names. They do have individual appearances.

All of the players are informed, once entering the game, that they are currently beta testing Project: Immerse. At a later point, when the tension between the directors and Celeste becomes too great, they will be told to kill each other until only 10 remain, who can then escape. There are only a finite amount of resources avaliable in the game, and the highest level you can reach is 200. Every Tier 1 enemy you defeat, you again .1 of a level, every Tier 2, .15, every Tier 3, .2, and every Boss, 1. This game has decimal levels. Only Tier 1 enemies are in Aluucoria, Tier 1 and 2 in Tessiam and all Tiers in Buyalia.

Thoughts on the game: (Why do they play? Do they like the game? Why?)

Mine:

Screen name: Nyanmo
Real name: Elise Ardworth
Race: Human-Cat Hybrid
Online Description: Black Cat hoodie with a red ribbon and bell fixed in the middle, with orange tights that have cat motifs on the right side. Wears cat ears, paws (mittens) and shows. Average height and average weight. Golden eyes and fang poking out on the fight side, and a cat-like smile (😸)
(optional) Offline Description: Small girl with two braids and glasses. Mother remarried (she's Asian) though respects her step-father, therefore taking his last name. Her real father died, and she has two younger step-brothers.
Hours of gametime: 103 hours and 33 minutes
Thoughts on the game: "Well... I like to play because it's like escape. My father died when I was really young, so I took my mother's new last name. I wish I could've kept it, but... Anyway, it's like escape, 'cause, well, I have two younger step-brothers and I love them but they get kinda annoying. It's my first MMORPG, but I think I really like it. It has very nice graphics."

@celeste this looks really cool XD but I just have one question- is there classes? Yknow, like warrior, mage, thief and the like.. >u<

@celeste
So I guess this is like SAO.

My form:

Screen name: Katiyo
Real name: Caitlyn Noa
Race: Elf
Online Description: (starter) Arm length black hair with green highlights. She wears a green tunic and brown capris with ankle length cloth shoes. Her eyes are a warm cocoa brown. She has long elf ears and feet and is a bit short(I might be quoting The Hobbit. XD).
Offline Description: She wears glasses with a thin, blue frame. Her hair is brown and only neck length.
Online Personality: Katiyo focuses on being top on the leader boards and reaching level 200 first. She's distrustful of noobs for reasons she doesn't feel like saying. She loves to kill all enemies rampagely and enjoys the sight of a barren battlefield cleared by herself and constantly buys new armor, weapons, etc and she doesn't usually help other players unless they have something special, has helped her or are proven worthy.
Offline Personality: She's usually very generous, kind and nice unlike her online self.
Hours of gametime: 2474 hours and 18 minutes
Thoughts on the game: "I'm a born gamer-girl so I like to try out a lot of games. I like being an elf in FFO unlike other games where I can only be a human mage, warrior or archer. It's cool to try out new roles. I've been playing for a while now, almost three months, I think."

Do they have the NerveGear or something similar because you wrote "It has multiple platforms, including computer, console and tablet." It would be easy to just stop playing with those.
