Yeah...without Valkyon, I'm out.

They should rename it as Eldarya: A New Era | Hit or miss?

Nightmare or disaster?

I'd say Nightmare or disaster seems about right

I'm honestly looking forward to a new season because I am too far away from finishing the first one and I don't see myself very much invested in it anyway. Also I would appreciate new characters and love interests, not because I dislike the old ones, but I just like to keep them as they are and not have their characters being messed with (as it happened in MCL) I rather enjoy some completely new options with different behaviour and new likeable traits.

I also hope that the episodes are going to be less expensive or that we get more Maana (especially since we have to feed our companion such a huge amount of our daily income). I don't think they changed anything on that but if they did, maybe more people would actually play the story.

Uh, I am really excited. I hope Leiftan returns!

Considering what happened in the episode 30, I'm not excited at all. But I'll just wait and see, if Eldarya is going to be "MCL vol. 2" for me (as in I was so disappointed with the new season that I stopped playing and am keeping my Candy in high school forever).

The hair style looks neat tho.

Exactly, based on their notorious approaches before this.

Not excited, but I have to agree with you on this.

just for  info they'll say something the 21th of July , at 14 PM., they've  wrote it on their Facebook page.

Probably they'll finally begin that day the FAQ.Since is a new season it's normal.

However i am super excited to play the new season, the first one was awsome..I am a little bit sad for valkyon, ezarel and leiftan, but i was already get used to it  from MCL..So my disappoit  at that time, (episode 30 exit) after a few days  it was completely vanished..

I still have to decide if  it's  the case to change crush or not, because nevra was basically a ghost in the first season( probably i'll change him, with the new crushes)..However'll wait , hoping to read some good news ^^

We'll see how this turns out.

Hope you don't pull a MCL/UL on us here, especially with the AP/$ system over there now

My expectations are as low as they can be since I had to endure the whole MCL fiasco. HOPING the learned from that.




Probably not, but let me hope until the 21st.

I'll have to make an AU up and a new guardian up if they remove all the old crushes. We're prob going to get the video policy on this game too so there goes being able to watch the other routes. I'm betting AP system gets the MCL/ML treatment.



I'm hoping they prove me wrong.

I have the feeling this will turn into MCLU.

I really wonder if they will make, like, a separate game/site for season 2 or be fking normal for once and not do that.

Please do not change the avatar. People will throw a fit.

Tbh it seems like they're taking the same direction with Eldarya as they did with MCL (from what I've heard certain love interests might not be coming back), so we'll be throwing a fit regardless lol

Theories:

Honestly, the way this is framed as "a new era" and the sleek polished look of the crystal room, I am expecting we are somehow in the future. Maybe? The "dreams or reality" bit could mean it is just an illusion.
Point is, if we are going to the future... who would be even left? Based on lore, vampires are immortal so Nevra is possible. Elves have long lifespans, but do not live forever so Ez is possible though not likely. Leiftan, Valkyon, and Lance? Well.... 
Plus, we have romances. Is our MC just going to ignore that she has/had a boyfriend? Are they going to be dead because of time (if my theory is right).
If so... No.
MCL already had this problem and it was openly berated over there. Players are attached to certain characters and boys. I really want Beemoov to have learned. The only thing I can really tell is that they at least kept the avatar the same (which is something already better than MCL). The last thing they have to not mess up is the mechanics. That made MCL basically unplayable for anyone that was in the high school story because the new system favored the college story line (favored is a loose term here) and made finishing high school a mess. It would kill all progress for newer players.

Like, I want to see what happens, but Beemoov's track record does not fill me with confidence, especially since they haven't told us anything.
Really, who makes an announcement just to say they are going to have an announcement in 2-3 weeks?!

Sorry, I think I went on a stream on consciousness rant there so it may be difficult to read and have zero structural flow.

Yeah sounds about right to release a new season when it is super slow to go on the episodes and making the prices for maana also expensive... Honestly, I am not sure if i ever get to finish this game and they want to release another season? But let's not jump into conclusions, maybe there will be something else than a new season LOL who knows.

I hope the original LIs come back for the sake of those who became attached to them. As for me, I would also love to have new good looking LIs in addition to the 3 or 4 boys (if Leiftan is even coming back). I've spent so much time with Ezarel & the others that it lost its spark. I think it would be refreshing and fun to have a different LI with a different personality. Though I understand that would mean more work for the writer(s).

I have a bad feeling about this...

Yup, I definetely had and still have a bad feeling. It would be devastating to lose our favourite characters in the new era- or whatever it was. Having another game to be ruined with taking away your crush or favourite character is just something I would not like to happen. In this situation I do hope that the team will listen to the players since it is still us who will decide if we want to support the game or not. It happened with MCL, it might just happen with Eldarya too. I can see it coming but do I want to believe it to happen?
To be honest, I might not play the "new era" if they dare to remove anyone. It would be too devastating and annoying, and I think we all can agree on that. I did not like when they removed my crush on MCL (Have yet to finish all the episodes there too) so it is kinda difficult to finish playing the game. I hope the team will look up the gamers' opinions about this and will reconsider their choises.
I seriously do not want this game to be ruined.

Yeah...we all hope that, but considering what happened in the last episode and with MCL, not likely. Beemov have this GoT- style, making us care about those characters and then replacing them with new ones. Perhaps they want to annoy us in purpose, who knows.

So, 9 days until the 21st when they're gonna reveal more information.
I wonder if that announcement will be a mere week before they plan to release season 2?
It would be about the halfway point between right now and when they usually drop the summer event, if they do that.

I'm really hoping for a couple things when the release drops
1) new clothing items in the shop
2) new clothing items on the maps
3) maybe a new outfit available for the beginning chapters?
4) it better be like MCL and not require completion of season 1
5) fingers crossed they don't change the system to dialogue based maana costs

Oh, finally! They got rid of that horrendous short hair! I hope they aren't gonna force on us a new short haircut ever again! I got nothing against short haired people, but I'd like to have a choice when it comes to almost permanent design choices for my characters, especially in a game that showcases character customization like MCL and Eldarya!

I agree, I actually like the look of the new hair so far.

I didn't like the old haircut even before it was cut short, it always seemed a bit unflattering.

Tomorrow is the day we find out about season 2.

Does anybody remember how much time passed between the official announcement of MCL university with teasers, and when it actually became available?

Are we ready ladies, gentlemen, and all non-binary folks? Soon we shall know something.
I swear if it is just an announcement and not the actual thing I will scream.
