Granado Espada.

Ooh. My finals in 2 weeks. Wheeee. I'm so uber mega prepared to sit for them. Wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee.

Anyway I thought I should at least update to keep this dead blog going. Here's what I've been doing online for the past few months.


Playing Granado Espada!

This game is made by Hakkyu Kim, the one who made Ragnarok Online. Certainly it did not disappoint me. The thing is, this game is truly different from other MMOs. Allow me to introduce you to the world of Granado Espada!

The story is set in the old world of Orpesia, in the country of Oporuto. The people of Oporuto were facing economical problems. Food is scarce, people dying of starvation. Previously, Oporuto and highly resourced country of Katai were having trades, but this has been cut of by the enemies of Oporuto, namely Targa, Illier and Vespanola from the East, while the Dark Sea blocks everything off on the West.

Brave adventurer Ferrucio Espada decided to travel across the Dark Sea, in hope of finding another route to Katai, but instead, he found a new world (means he's the Christopher Columbus here). Oporuto named the new world Granado Espada (Lol if the same happens to US today it will be called Granado Columbus) and spent all its last remaining resources to develop the new world. Oporuto went into bankruptcy, and everything they ever owned were taken over by Vespanolans, who relieved the country's debts, and in the process annexed all of Oporuto's holdings in Orpesia and Granado Espada.

After that, Vespanola were attacked by their enemy Brestia, which started the Three Year War. The deciding battle was the Balearas Naval Battle, where somehow, Vespanola's small fleet miraculously defeated the mighty Brestian fleet.

The war forced Vespanola to ignore its interests in Granado Espada, and also created a new class of social elites the Wartime Nobles. Due to the inability of the Wartime Nobles to adapt to peace and control problems in Granado Espada, the Queen of Vespanola has issued a "Reconquista Policy" urging Vespanolan families to migrate over to Granado Espada to retake the land for the Queen and Country.

Your adventure begins with your family looking for power, fortune and glory under the Reconquista.

More next time. Meanwhile. A few screenshots for eye pleasure. These screenies were taken by me.

Ahehe....
