What has GraalOnline been to you?
 
I'd like to take a moment and really describe what GraalOnline has been to ME personally, for three years of my life.. My "life" on GraalOnline has been a bit of a secret, letting only a few people even know I play it. I usually shy away from asking friends I know in real life to play. There has only been one instance were someone on GraalOnline, actually lived where I did and eventually we met up and became pals. But GraalOnline in general; since I was thirteen up until now, being sixteen. It has been almost like an escape from my real world troubles, something to indulge in "after hours" if you will. Somewhere I know there will always bee someone to talk too. Maybe it sounds cheesy, but I've made some real friends on GraalOnline. Some I've even shared my personal life with.

So, I'm curious.. Like the title ask's, what is GraalOnline to you?

Nothing more than a game to pass the time. Nothing too serious. Only played it for about a year and a half and then I got bored.
Mostly a disappointment though.

When I was 11 my friend showed me graalclassic and right away I was hooked. You could have even said I was addicted to graal. That year in school I did awful so I stopped for about a month and went back on and I was hooked again but this time I was smart about how long I played. I have made so many friends because of this game and im glad I came back on. But now its gone a bit downhill just because ive done everything just waitin for something new to do.

Graal saved me from suicide...I had no friends, I was lonely...but Graal was always there for me.

Graal's been more like a more efficient form of birth control if you ask me.

I love it. The community, for that matter. I try to take a break from it, but I cannot leave the friends I make in the game.

Then why do you post on a forum dedicated for the game?

I'm not saying it couldn't be better, but I am saying that your pessimistic attitude could be.

Jester Lapse 03-28-2013 01:28 AM

Let me clarify, Mattkan is a disappointment.

Masochistic.

It's been fun though, I've learned a lot from my time spent on it, and I've made a few good friends from it.

An unhealthy escape from life's problems that literally made me lose touch with reality in all respects. Honestly at one point it entirely replaced every ounce of my social life for over a year. It wasn't just my "after hours hobby", it was everything outside of school. 8+ hours a day (NOTE: that number includes graalonline, graal facebook, graphical development, skype with graal friends, and graalians.com. I view all extensions of the graal communitiy as a part of 'graal'.).... still recovering

Graal is most likely something I will never forget about. I find myself going on every few days sometimes even a week without it. I come on these forums a lot more often. But I've met many people, shared many laughs and bought many many hats. For that I thank Graal, and besides the fact that it has taken up a few years of my life and effected my grades a bit I wouldn't have it any other way.

I will never, ever, forget graal. Graal is one of the most social games I've ever played. I've even met a girl who lives in the same city as me (and if you knew where I'd lived, you'd be like "no way!"), and we met up and are besties now :D I play graal for around 10-20 hours a day (lol) and when I tell my friends at school that, they're like "You're so anti-social and a video game freak! Why do you spend 15 hours on average on a GAME?!".
That game, is like my second world and helps me get out of reality when my life isn't going so well. Especially when I was having a fallout with my friends last year, I felt like I wasn't alone because I had my family guild VEXOS. VEXOS is like my second family!
I would be way different if I didn't discover graal. It was on the genius section of the app store (Thank you Genius section). I would never do pixel art, never realize that my graal bestie irl and in game had a best friend who now goes to my school, and meet all the amazing people in the graal that I am proud to know now :)
Whoever came up with graal, you have changed my life.
