25 Reasons We're Still Here, 25 Years Later
When friends ask: why are you still playing Neopets? Isn’t that game from the early 2000’s?! You think for a while, but you can’t pinpoint the one exact reason why you’re still here - is it the vibes? Do you miss your pets? Or do you like feeling rich as a neo-billionaire? There are many different reasons why many of us choose to spend hours of our lives immersed in Neopia. So let us help you out with this list of 25 reasons why we’re still here, 25 years later!
1. Re-living the nostalgia - Neopets hasn’t changed! The core site, the art work, the cast of characters, the world map of Neopia and all its lands are still intact, just as you remembered in the days of yore. Neopets has been preserved as a treasured time travel capsule to your old beloved digital toybox.
2. Escaping the real world. Most users are adults now, which means real life responsibilities. And sometimes, we could use a break from those real life obligations by dropping in to visit our pixelated pet world.
3. Your pets are starving so you’re back to feed them. Though, you know better now than to feed them omelettes - after all, those need to be saved for the annual Faerie Festival Recycling. Instead, to the Neolodge they go!4. Achieving dream pets is possible now! Speaking of the Faerie Festival, the once ever elusive Rainbow Fountain Faerie now makes regular appearances during this annual event to grant the dream pet colour of your choosing. What's more, Quest Log has also swooped into the scene. Re-releasing those rare paint brushes and morphing potions help close the gap in making those dreamies come true!
5. Customising pets. You’re an adult and you have the money to buy NC (or more accurately, the decision-making powers to do so). Complete your dream pets by dressing them up. Mix and match, exchange fun ideas, create different fitting combinations, spend hours on the NC trading boards to find a white Radiant Glow, and bask in the satisfaction of nailing the finishing look!
