Prefonteen Posted January 28, 2023 Share Posted January 28, 2023 (edited) 4 hours ago, Adrienne said: Even this is a heavy understatement. It was to the point that even the most active players in this game no longer wanted to engage anymore and that takes a substantial effort. When even alliance gov and leadership don't have the heart to continue and start going inactive, that's a new level of fatigue. It was more physically mentally and emotionally draining than any game ever has a right to be and there was no end in sight. We were fighting an opponent who was quite literally determined to eliminate us from the game and they were doing a rather good of it up until the point the cheating scandal broke. The end of that war was incredibly abrupt and the only reason it did stop was because of the opposing member response to temporary bans handed out to their leadership from the cheating scandal verdict. As you stated, had a heavy toll on the game and thousands of players - friends, alliance mates, alliances, etc. - were gone. We've all got friends from then we've never heard from again. It's something I'm glad we're recovering from - and yeah, honestly, I would still say we're in recovery in some ways and I'll agree with the general sentiment that the game as a whole may still be a bit gun shy over it all and I hope we continue to move beyond that - but it's leaps and bounds beyond where we were even a year ago. We'll continue recovering and moving on but I hope we'll never forget because the last thing we need is a repeat. And there on that distant hill stood Partisan. His pink cape draped over his shoulders, loosely hanging in the wind.

Arthur Wellington Posted January 29, 2023 Share Posted January 29, 2023 22 hours ago, Adrienne said: With all due respect, if this is your takeaway from what was said, I don't think you got the point of the posts. My end conclusion was also that we need to continue moving on from it. The rest of my post and I presume Tartarus's as well is simply trying to further explain the sentiments at the time, because people who have come since then don't understand what it was like at the time - thank God for that - but they need to, to understand the mindset of some of the older players and why some folks might still be the way they are at times. You can call it a weird attitude/involvement or detached from reality if you want, that's your prerogative. But the truth of the matter is that people do get attached to the game and their communities, always have and always will, and that period was damaging on multiple levels. I'd rather help spread understanding than minimize the experiences of those who were present at the time. Player mindsets and sentiments isn't everything I'm referring to either when I talk about recovery so don't make this out as though it's some weird overly emotional thing and dismiss it. We also lost NPO, old BK, GotG, etc who, like them or not, filled a role of being major players and major spheres. We're better off without them but make no mistake - their departure left a crater in game politics. I feel like we're only really now beginning to fill that void with alliances like TI and Aurora who were young at the time all this went down but who have become more formidable in their own right since. That took time. You can't fix something like that overnight. And like others have said, the return of things like terms from alliances who would normally do them (as fricking annoying as it was to be on the receiving end of that this past war) is a good indicator that things are beginning to normalize again. NPOLT (and NPO and co by association) get talked about so much because it was a defining game event. There's nothing wrong with that. That said, I'd much rather the NPO accusations/assumptions of accusations stopped too and have said as much for years. I'm certainly not condoning it as you're implying but you're not going to achieve your desires with regards to this with a "suck it up, buttercup" attitude that's dismissive of the substantial progress that has been made in the time since NPOLT. Is it perfect? Absolutely not. But these issues have lessened significantly since then and will continue to do so, especially as the distance between now and NPOLT continues to grow and alliances themselves continue to move on, gain new leadership, and take new paths. ~Suck it up, buttercup~ Nice one, I should have started with that. My point was and is that this game doesnt need a big bad wolf. I pointed out that there have been many other alliances and people since NPO that have performed a role in PnW gameplay and politics which people could use to be talking about. NPO's role might have been big, (it is a very effective group in several games!) it doesnt, in my view, justify the intense longing for them fulfilling the role they get now. Exactly what your last sentence described, move on, new leaders, new drama, happend. Many times over. I do find sentences like 'susbtanial progress since' and 'It was more physically mentally and emotionally draining than any game ever has a right to be' rather intense and to be honest, a bit scary to be frank. Pointing that out isnt meant as an ad hominem, but my point about NPO getting too much credit (?!) in relation to the many events and people playing this game since npolt. 22 hours ago, Prefonteen said: And there on that distant hill stood Partisan.

Only in the last few months we had great fun with several GW's, role shifts, leadership changes and drama.

Good. I don't know why the progress bit scares you and that it does kind of scares me to be frank but the other was intended to be intense because that time period was... kinda intense. It was a shitty time and it's not an event that needs repeating.

I definitely think you're blowing the current state of things out of proportion. NPO isn't an active bad guy or big bad wolf - it may still be present in folks' minds but it's mostly just history at this point. Current events and alliances are receiving plenty of love, believe you me. This thread and one other instance of a mention this are the other major mentions of what you're referring to I can think of in recent times and mentions of it should continue to lessen as times go on.

Arthur Wellington Posted January 29, 2023 Share Posted January 29, 2023 I can imagine it ´being kinda shitty´ but man, mentally and physically, thats extremely heavy and way out of proportion for this game (which I enjoy, and im invested btw). In relation to NPO, I was/am reacting to the OP, what one does on forums I think. Lets talk about IRON more! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adrienne Posted January 29, 2023 Share Posted January 29, 2023 It was supposed to read mentally and emotionally, I'm not sure how physically snuck it's way into there but yeah, it was heavy. If you weren't there and dealing with it directly, you don't know how it was, so please don't tell me it's "out of proportion". I was a leader during that war so I was in the thick of it and I know exactly how it was and the effects it had on me and other leaders/gov at the time. Saying it was "more mentally and emotionally draining than any game has a right to be" is nothing short of the truth. If the topic bores you and you want to talk about IRON, go talk about IRON.

You can still contact them via discord, CN or NS?? What rabbit hold did I get myself in? Yeah I need to jump in here. @Adrienne what Adrienne said I agree with as she does a good job of summing up the void that NPOLT's end did for the game. IQ departure still hasn't fully been replaced, and the game's FA meta is still influenced by the actions of parties in that conflict and will continue to influence things as long as people who were around in NPOLT continue to hold power in alliances. NPOLT will remain as an FA talking point until a new generation completely replaces those who were around back then. What a lot of newer players don't seem to understand is that the current geopolitical meta is still influenced by the actions of parties in NPOLT, more so than other past global wars. Similar to how after WW2, the allies set about creating a new geopolitical order. Which lasts to this day (Current German borders, existence of North/South Korea, Sakhalin). That said, I do think some people do rely on this war a bit too much for justification for why certain FA actions are good or bad, or why their alliance thinks in a particular way. However this goes back to the first point how most of these alliances still have the same people who were in leadership back during NPOLT either still as leaders or in high gov/advisor positions so their influence is still strongly felt. And I do agree that some alliances have this fear of being labelled as "IQ like" when they try to push terms beyond a simple white peace or force a NAP. That I disagree with and think is bad for the game, but again this is a problem that time will fix as new people enter gov. Lastly, I feel you missed the point Nizam made when she mentioned how people are gone because of the war. Yes they obviously aren't dead because of NPOLT. But what she's referring to is many people deleted their Discord accounts or other platforms and left online browser gaming entirely since PnW was the only one they played and NPOLT made them sick of the genre of games. For many of these people, those who remain have no way of contacting them. I fought on both sides of the conflict, so I got to see the attrition impact communities on both sides of the divide. There were people whom I was friends with who deleted who I chatted to for years but after NPOLT, nobody ever heard from them again. Also.. the only alliance I'm 100% happy they're gone from the game is GOONS. EDIT: Added context, expanded and refined points and clarifyed things for some people.

Glad I caught your edit! Not at all. I'm sorry you drew those conclusions. My intention was to point out that you did not have the same experience as us. There is no moral judgement there, but it is important to note that you were on the other side and so explaining the experience to you is really difficult because it will always seem like hyperbole to someone who didn't experience it personally. I didn't think I'd be so emotionally affected by a browser based nation sim, but NPO sure proved me wrong. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
