Since I occasionally get likes on my Fer,al art, I felt like I had to make a post about the current situation. Wildworks, the company behind Animal Jam and Fer,al, has been using Fer,al for 2 whole years to make a block-chain and NFT based game called Cinder. they are reusing all the assents of Fer,al. Cinder will be released next year while Fer,al is still currently in BETA.
I cannot support this and will therefore put my fer,al characters on hold until they've been redesigned and assigned to another universe. I will no longer be playing this game. more of my thoughts under the cut
Edit: Sorry, I wrote this post in a blind rage and messed up NFT as UFT KFLJADSKLFDSJA
Edit 2: Here is a Toyhou.se forum post explaining more coherently what happened
I am absolutely livid. At first when I discovered they were making a game based around NFTs I was like.... upset, made a post about it, and waited for updates... while also just kind of lurking in the discord for all the tea. But then the more I learned about the AMA, wildwork's past and.... saw on the actual CINDER site they've been using OUR MONEY AND EXPERIENCES to TEST their NFT game, I started losing it.
Brother when I was 13 I LITERALLY only played Animal Jam to find all the animal facts and like... learn about animal conservation. then after that was done I was no longer interested in the game. And now I'm finding out the SAME company used MY money to... build THIS?
And the responses of the mods literally are so insane too. the fucking MENTAL GYMNASTICS they do to JUSTIFY the choice they've made. it's insane....! I mean, take a look at all of this.
"you use discord and have lights in your house, therefore a little bit of NFT here and there is ok." That's like saying my GRANDMA is to blame for NFTs... and she doesn't even own a COMPUTER.
"We've listened to in-game feedback a bunch before, we can't comply to every request!" KING, IDK HOW TO TELL YOU THIS, BUT THIS HAS A LARGER IMPACT THAN SOME GAME BUGS.
and then the last one speaks for itself. absolutely bonkers. I'm so fucking livid... I don't even have words for how used I feel and how poorly the staff handles this. This was the first game I felt comfortable enough for to pay for a season pass and other in game things....
I'm simply... at a loss. I'm so glad the community is largely on the same boat as I am... so I hope Cinder flops. but this is absolutely disgusting.
ok so generally i dont get why people r obsessed w nfts but just. what confuses me even more is that they dont even look good. like. i know they arent buying them for them to look good but. ?????????????????

well, she didn't expect her night to go in this route after their productive evening, that much was certain.
in the dead of night, they mutually came to the same conclusion and seek each others comfort. they meticulously and steadily took their time to shed each other's clothes until they were completely bare. lithe hands roam his body with delicate touches while being mindful to his reactions...
amelia lets out a breathless sigh into the crook of his neck, perching on his lap for comfort, thighs nestled around his bare hips. one hand splays against his shoulder blades while the other rests against the middle of his spine for she desires nothing but to be simply close to him in this manner. she pulls away just enough to pepper kisses and bites along his neck, and the underside of his jaw. she is consumed by the need to worship him; he deserves it for all the pain he had to endure because of everything...
soft shadows cast over their forms; her emerald hues settles on his own when she pulls away. " is this alright? "
