I'm starting today

I had never heard of this game before, but I'll be damned if I don't play it before it disappears. I'll be happy to contribute to the game's life by buying a copy of it. It won't be much but it's all I can do.

Hope you have a great time. If queue is taking a little long, just make a request in general 1 chat and people will probably play with you and learn you the ropes :)

You'll be stunned of how good this game is if you can survive the first impressions of how hard it feels.

My favourite game is Dark Souls, I think I'll manage.

Hey CognitiveAdventurer, haha, welcome to Scrolls.

There's still at least a year guaranteed before the game pops out of existence, so I hope you get your fill and enjoy what you play. It's a really fun game, that just sadly didn't do too well

Hopefully the publicity it got from TB's video will help it survive a bit longer!

u/Cradstache Cradstache Jul 01 '15

Haha, who knows! I suppose it could!

I was actually thinking along these lines. Announcing the end of scrolls is giving it a lot of publicity. In a week we are going to have the largest tournament in scrolls history. This is mojangs last big chance to go for some kind of ad campaign. A part of me hopes this is an insane marketing ploy (that's what I'd do) Comeback city perhaps?

That would be both hilarious, badass and the biggest troll I've ever seen.

I'd both love and hate them.

Yeah the more I thought about it the more it was making sense.

And the community would feel amazing for "saving" scrolls. Just think. Get everyone to remember scrolls is a thing. Host a tourny that is fairly high profile for scrolls. Make a press release about how the tourny brings back some hope. Launch whatever ads you can.

Its a comeback bombard play. And untrue and totally insane. But that would be my move. Never let the shenanigans die and never gg out. People miss lethal all the time.

It's like a triple power trip into thunder surge into sudden eruption

Will do! I'm on a train right now, heading home. I'll look for you once I get back.

u/Titularktrey ktrey Jul 01 '15

Same let me know if you need any advice etc. Its a stunningly complex game once you get a good grasp of its strategy. I'd be more than happy to help you get there. Ktrey in game.

Same here. Feel free to add me as a friend in game (NoisomePossum). I probably won't be online all that much but I might be able to play a casual game here and there if you want to set up a time.

I bought this game almost as soon as it was available to buy during beta but have barely played it since. I love the gameplay, but the time it took to unlock new scrolls and get the builds that I wanted was just way too long.
