Hello everyone! So, the Sylestia team has been mulling over a lot of options about what to do with the Faelora. There seems to be a lot of inconclusive feedback, where we feel like we're struggling to make everyone overall happy with the proposed revamp changes.

We have instead decided to move the Faelora into a new direction, such as we took with the Kelpari. This way the design is completely new and not based on old lines which makes us conform to the concept standard. We have discussed this extensively, which is why there has been some delay since the previous post...and we feel like this should take Faelora in a completely new and better direction (that hopefully will receive more positive feedback than what we are getting with the current presented revamp!). We also have not ruled out possibly bringing back another deer-based species in the future.

As always, please be constructive and courteous in any given criticism. I think sometimes we all forget that there are actual people behind the posts and avatars. We all have very strong feelings about the game, both admin, artists, and player base. But I think we can all agree that we love Sylestia and together want to make it the best game ever!

Thank you! :)





Just kidding. April Fools'. =P

whahAAHAHAHHH

them <3

Why do I kind of love them? lol

omg lmao! this is beautiful -chef's kiss-

This kind of makes me sad, actually. I loved the way they looked like deer :(

Okay but they are actually super cute :)

Aw, I'm sorry. We are trying to mitigate as much upsetness as possible to make everyone happy. As I said, we are going to be looking at making another deer-based species in the future. :)

I won't lie, this is quite disappointing and sad for me. I understand the reasoning in wanting to take the Faelora in a new direction, but this new design is just creepy. I'd rather keep the Faelora species as it is now and just add more genes and mutations, than have this.

Personally, I really love the previous (full colour) art that was posted for the Faelora revamp and I'd like to cast my vote for that design. Different people might have had different feedback about small changes here or there, but I got the impression that most people would be okay with it even if it didn't get the one or two little changes they want.

I find the long neck on this design quite disturbing (especially on the hatchlings), and it takes away the antlers which were my favourite thing about Faeloras.

We can definitely look at any redlines people provide in terms of giraffe proportions. :)

Is it going to have a new name?
