Adieu, Ameba Pico..?

Pico has announced its final day, December 17, 2012. This a lot sooner than I expect for this virtual game to close its doors. On the day Pico announced this, several petitions were instantly created. The determination to keep Pico open is good, yes. But as for whenever they would make a difference, I'm not so sure. 

The CyberAgents has already reach their conclusion to end Ameba Pico two years after creating it. It seems to me that the chance that they would take our petitions into consideration are quite slim.

Following up from my previous post, a much better chance to voice your opinions is through Norishige Nagase, the operating officer and general manager of Ameba. Send him messages about your feelings regarding this matter. If many Pico players are willing to cooperate and do this, I have high hopes that they won't just overpass it. 

Now, I know that these past few months Ameba Pico has been an asshole to all of us. Hardly anything they released deserve a compliment. Despite that, what made the game tolerable was the social life I have on there, and I'm positive that I'm not the only one who feel this way. All the friends I've made, all around the world. To think that there are people, each from so many different parts of the world, yet we made a connection, share interests, and became friend through this small virtual game. 

So please, do whatever you can to keep this game going At least for now..

Meet Norishige Nagase

What's Your Halloween Costume?

These past few days I've been going around hunting for some cuties in Halloween costumes and I really think I've struck gold with what I found ~

It's twins time! 

Let's go trick or treating with a big smile!~maybe you'll get more candies

I just missed my train to Hogwarts! Think you can guide me? 

Not until two more months, Santa!

and thus, the Christmas Trio was form

Isn't it always more fun spending time with your friends? 

A truly dead mummy

I think I've finally found him!! 

I wonder how Halloween in Bearland looks like...

what am I talking about

The kawaii vibe is too strong... 

I was asking if she could share some of those mesmerizing candies in her basket, and she poof away under the pumpkin lantern light.

We all like to keep our candies safe and sound and away from me... 

It's only a few more days left until 

It seems Pico did indeed create more Halloween gachas, and also an autumn one right in the midst of it  In general the themes of those gachas are pretty nice; more details and different than the previous years.

On this gacha I actually spun without knowing it was 75 AG per spin. The realization part came a little too late, you see. 

Nevertheless, have a ghoulfull Halloween! Enjoy all that you do that day to the best~

An Overall Look at Halloween 2012

This year Halloween have got to be the worst one out of the entire three years of Halloween history in Pico. Some of us or me just signed up for disappointment by expecting a little too much since they have done a pretty good job with the recent shop items.

It's been a while since the last AG campaign, and Pico didn't do this any justice. The limited item, Halloween Ghost Long T-shirt, is something I would expect and see in the daily gacha, which by the way, is a complete rip off since it is the exact same one as last year along with the fact that Pico didn't even bother to lower the price 300 gummies to 100 gummies per spin  I won't even go into that.

Nonetheless, the AG campaign item could have been better, much better. Ameba Pico should have put this "Halloween Ghost Long T-shirtl" in a gummies items Robo rather than making us purchase 1500 AmeGold for it. The shirt is rather plain in my opinion. 

This was the only thing that was given to us, no silhouette of what the items might be, no hints, no whatsoever. It is a shame actually. Had there be a silhouette of the items, it would have encourage more players to buy the mystery boxes.

The mummy items are passable.. But as for the rest, I'm not very impressed. Especially with the wigs, they look very awkward to me.. The two mini buns at the top and the low pigtails at the bottom clash instead of going together. Either remove the two buns or the two pigtails and that would leave behind a decent wig. But as for this, these wigs look terrible not mentioning ugly. On top of that, those circus clothes are hideous. 

For God's sake, just how more lazy can the CyberAgents get 

Beside the three mystery boxes, there is not a single new items in the Halloween park! Oh, and so much for the removal of those premium gachas, they brought it back anyway. Everywhere is just more and more renewal items. 

Do you know what is today?

It is none other than my birthday~

( ^ _ ^)∠☆pang！

Roses for you, mademoiselle~

Happy Birthday Scarlett~

and Happy Early Halloween!
