Aro'kai & FeralHeart
Posted: Fri Jul 29, 2011 2:01 pm
Surely you've heard of one or the other. Both, even?
They are both animal roleplaying games, though they are very different.
Feralheart has already been released, but is still in the early stages and subject to gain new features with time. You have the choice between a canine and a feline model, both of witch you can customize with a lot of freedom. Coat color, markings, eye color & shape, width, height, weight, etc.
FeralHeart was created by KovuLKD to give the players a chance to create and share. There's a built in map maker, where you can upload height maps and edit in objects and even your own meshes. A sky maker is also there for creating your own day and night and weather.
My opinion about the game:
Please note that this is just my opinion, and you should always try it for yourself before judging it.
It has great potential, but it will never be anything like the game before it, Impressive Title. (Which is actually back and owned by another person, though I'm not sure who.) I think the addition of canines ruined the community, filling it with wolfaboos and trolls. That was bound to happen, though. The staff, however, are great. If only Kovu would put them to use! "NO in-game mods." Why? Really, what harm could it do? There are many suitable people for the job if the current staff are too busy. Is Kovu too prideful to admit that his game is going downhill and may possibly be the hotspot for wolfaboos now? That's all I can come up with. *shrug*
One thing that set my decision to leave FH in stone was the report button. It was a fake. It does nothing.
"The report button was implemented to give a (FALSE) sense of security to the members." That's low. Really low.
If Kovu doesn't get his game straight, I'm afraid it's going to be a failure to upgrade Impressive Title. I really hope IT didn't go down for nothing.

Aro'kai is also, like FH, an animal roleplaying game where you choose a species, run around, chat, and RP. However, it looks to hold a bit more potential. The game is set to come out in Phases.
Phase 1: Owls :: This was recently changed to canines because of some difficulties Superfeesh (Game creator) was having with flight controls.
Phase 2: Felines
Phase 3: Deer & Bears
Phase 4: Gryphon & Dragons
I'm not sure where Owls are coming in, but I guess we'll just have to wait and see. ^^
The world, unlike FH (Which has portals to go to different maps.) will have one huge seamless world. Some were suggesting that it be spherical, like Earth, but nothing like that is certain. Each species will have a 'home'. Like, a place in the world claimed by that species.
The world is largely in the planning stages and I can't really say much else when it comes to what to expect.
AK also may have PvP (Player vs Player). Super said yes, but later. Right now the main priority is getting the models for the species done.
There will be NPCs and a Storyline, but the story has only be revealed to the staff and not much has been hear about it. It has been announced that there will be a good and a bad side. Felines, Bears, and dragons on the bad. Canines, Deer and Gryphons on the good. I think Owls are neutral. x3
A few screenshots:
(These are from the official forum and the dA. I didn't take them.)
Canines
Equines I don't think they're officially going to be in the game, though.
Wyvern/Dragon Super calls it a Wyvern, but many argue it's a Dragon because of the four legs.
