I've been playing Wolvden lately and it's actually made me think about the early days of Lioden again. I had some fun looking at very first news posts all the way up til when I joined in August 2014.

Any old people want to reminisce and share experiences? It's hard to believe I joined after the very first Celestial event, considering how popular it became! I remember getting a lioness with Celestial Speckles, Starshine eyes and White Underfelt and I thought she was the best thing EVER. I changed her base to Onyx.

I also remember thinking Inferno was way too bright and weird. The most "extreme" base we had before that was Maroon.

Incidentally, does anyone actually remember or know when Lioden left beta? I hadn't thought about this much before, but after playing more WD, it crossed my mind. I can't glean a lot from the old news posts. The very first news post is it about it entering beta but I don't know if it's an open or closed beta. It looks like the oldest non-staff accounts are roughly August 2012 but the very first (archived) news post is from March 2013.

I remember when there were only 4 feline markings lol I had a stud with all four and he would run out of slots. I also remember when the first primal design dropped and when we got pregnant lioness art.

Yeah, I bought a Feline 3 Black cub when it was new for 20 GB. I loved her so much!

I remember when there would be less than 1000 people online. Right now there's over 3000 online

I am not as old of a player as many of the people on this thread (I like to call myself a "middle aged" player), however, a lot has changed since.

To name a few examples of new and changed features that I recall:

*The introduction of caves
*The introduction of more than 10 markings/hidden markings
*the old claiming system
*the old battling system (it hasn't changed much)
*The old chatrooms
*Whack-a-Snake prior to its removal
*The introduction of battle beetles
*The release of the games: Whack-a-Snake, Serengeti Shuffle and Reptile Roundup.

Players from 2020 still feel very new to me, despite it having been a few years back.

Yeah, players from 2020 feel very new to me too. It probably doesn't help that I've taken a couple hiatuses from the game around 2017-2020, but still, yeah.

I always forget battle beetles exist. I don't care for them much personally but I feel like I should start raising some to farm their materials for crafting.

I've taken a lot of hiatuses since 2020 so I feel that.

Tbh I never wanted beetle battles - I always wanted the Display case vote that went around for a while. I'd rather collect and display them.

Also I didn't even know that Whack a Snake got removed lol
