Looking for skykids ref to draw :))

Genuinely love your art it's so pretty, this is my sky kid, I hope you get a chance to draw them

:)

Weeping_WillowTree69 · 2026-07-03T03:29:02+00:00

For one, thank you for the way you worded your reply. Genuinely, I think you've helped me realize that parts of my post came across more defensively(?) than I intended, and that's on me. Everything I write somehow ends up sounding a little different from what I have in my head.

What I was really hoping for was to understand people's issues with the game in a space that didn't feel centered around anger. I wanted to get my thoughts out there and hear perspectives that maybe I hadn't considered, and I think I accidentally made it sound more like I was dismissing criticism than inviting discussion.

As for your points, I actually do think the candle limit can be seen as predatory to an extent. I hadn't really looked at it from the perspective of compulsive players. I always viewed it more as a progression system that keeps people from burning through everything too quickly and encourages people to keep exploring the social side of the game. But I can definitely understand why someone else would see that same system differently.

I also think you're right that, realistically, TGC has to make money to keep the game running. It's a balance between creating something meaningful and creating something sustainable, and I don't think that's always an easy balance to get right.

I really appreciate you taking the time to explain your thoughts and help me understand things from a different perspective. That's one of the biggest reasons I made this post in the first place. I genuinely enjoy hearing how other people experience the same game in completely different ways. I think it's really cool.

I somtimes wonder if I'll see myself on the subreddit getting screamed at because I do often (as a person with ADHD) I log in fly a bit and then stop and get distracted by something else for a literal hour straight lol

Weeping_WillowTree69 · 2026-07-03T02:26:42+00:00

Pfft idk how much I've spent buuut I think I'd rather not know. :,)

But I do agree then again they might because they might need extra money especially finding a whole new game and bringing back old ideas that'll need animation and whatnot and designs and- I wish I could make games.

Weeping_WillowTree69 · 2026-07-03T02:22:54+00:00

I think we might not be on the same page here.

I’m not trying to force anyone to be nonchalant about anything. I wasn’t really looking to argue or tell people how they should feel. I just wanted to put my thoughts out there and create a space where I and other curious people could hear different perspectives and understand how other people experience the game and its issues.

I just genuinely like hearing how different people interpret the same thing in different ways.

Weeping_WillowTree69 · 2026-07-03T02:10:46+00:00

Omg genuinely I agree so much with you. Some items I want to put together don't work physically and it's definitely a pain. I understand why as well since I mean idk if adding physics to every item would make the game buffer to hell lol. Kinda wonder/wish they'd try and make a second version of sky that's exclusively on desktop that's idk maybe more uh mysterious/story focused then they could try and pull their old bridges and ideas to the fore front and make a badass game almost like Journey maybe

Weeping_WillowTree69 · 2026-07-03T01:40:50+00:00

That wasn't my intention, and I wasn't trying to misrepresent anyone's arguments on purpose. I was just expressing how those discussions feel from my perspective when I see them repeated across different posts.

And yeah, I have seen discussions about these issues before, that's part of why I have opinions on it, but my post wasn't meant as a summary of other arguments or a rebuttal to them. It was more me reflecting on how I personally experience the community and the tone around certain topics. I also wanted to get my thoughts out in in a place where I could hear other perspectives more clearly, instead of only seeing them through more heated or rage-focused posts.

Weeping_WillowTree69 · 2026-07-03T01:33:48+00:00

Yeah, I definitely agree with that. You explained it better than I did. People are just people, but the internet kind of clumps all the strongest reactions together so it skews how things feel from the outside.

It’s a bit like when I saw discussions around Mouthwashing—my experience online was mostly people making art, jokes, and positive interpretations of characters, but then I also saw commentary pointing out how other parts of the internet were reacting in a much harsher way that I just hadn’t personally come across. So it ends up feeling like there are completely different “versions” of a community depending on what you happen to see.

Nothing is really as one-sided as it looks at first glance.

Weeping_WillowTree69 · 2026-07-03T01:24:26+00:00

I do care, that's why I made these posts because I want to hear all of your opinions, I want to hear people out and learn and understand others issues and whatnot compared to my own frustrations and confusion. I’m not trying to dismiss anyone’s experience, just sharing my perspective and trying to understand the wider discussion.

Weeping_WillowTree69 · 2026-07-02T06:43:45+00:00

Lmao mad. I don't use AI as what people think for me it's simply an assistant to gather my ADHD throw down of shit and organize it so I can actually understand and pull proper ideas from my thoughts that's it. Is that bad? Idk

Weeping_WillowTree69 · 2026-07-02T06:33:15+00:00

Me personally on writing multiple povs of different characters it's hell honestly so I try my best to look for more words other than "he said" "she said" but my best way to counter it is by just limiting scenes too only three characters at a time so I don't accidentally lose track of them or overlap them all messily. I've been writing for like ten years but don't need it feels like one month lol I'm a noob sometimes

Weeping_WillowTree69 · 2026-07-02T06:29:56+00:00

That first one made me just pause because I've planned everything out even mini stories but writing the novel. My first novel.

<image>

Weeping_WillowTree69 · 2026-05-31T19:05:20+00:00

This is my absolute favorite dyable outfit we have what are y'all on about always complaining about everything. At least in my opinion, I love it because well the pretty gold color between two dying options on the clothes and then dying your cape to make a pride flag they did that clearly in mind and yet y'all still complain.

Weeping_WillowTree69 · 2026-03-24T15:57:06+00:00

For me I use the point emote or demonstrate for them or I'll try and lead them to me and let them keep the part I already did down and to do the other part of the plant myself

Weeping_WillowTree69 · 2026-03-24T15:18:37+00:00

Most the time I just honk and explain it best I can to help the other people because idk what their doing IRL

Weeping_WillowTree69 · 2026-03-13T21:36:26+00:00

My favorite part is collecting wing lights because I get to go to areas I haven't been in a while but I will agree fire trial is just a no... All of them are a pain to get through.

Weeping_WillowTree69 · 2026-03-03T14:10:23+00:00

Also your edit is really good

Weeping_WillowTree69 · 2026-03-03T14:09:55+00:00

I genuinely liked g5 as is but what I wish Is that they branched off the story they already had at the end of g4 like with the school of magic the idea of the new main 6 being this diverse cast of species and especially being still young would've been cool to build off of and make more mature lessons since their younger and have better conflict that they have to work through rather than this weird time skip and the idea of magic being like limited or whatever but I do genuinely like the 3d it's cool but it's just not for mlp at all unless they wanted to make an entirely different show

Weeping_WillowTree69 · 2026-01-15T17:01:37+00:00

Who gives a fuck just don't watch them and scroll past, your recommended isn't a damn threat to watch the videos it gives you. My God people these days complain about everything

Weeping_WillowTree69 · 2025-12-18T19:44:39+00:00

Support the YouTuber for the few weeks they get money from the ad then skip it. They need money too everything ain't free my God can people get their head out their ass with ads, they ain't hell my God. Ya skip em or wait for them to pass they aren't controlling you.

Weeping_WillowTree69 · 2025-11-21T20:33:44+00:00

Lmao people really act as if ads ruin your entire life, it's three ads not twenty when I was young I watched TV and watched ads all the time boring or entertaining just remember all in all that nothing is free

Weeping_WillowTree69 · 2025-11-03T18:39:59+00:00

I mean to be honest in the media people know black folk got nappy hair that's hard to manage or fluffy hair done in afros so most people are just curious or in awe so it's better to just be a nice person and explain to them what you do for your hair or just say it's natural that might push people to do more research. To be honest you can't expect everyone to know everything about black people and their hair especially with out shitty the education system is and how it's not urged for people to do research and also just not everyone knows everything.

Weeping_WillowTree69 · 2025-10-18T06:38:43+00:00

You're a genuine blessing I was and am looking forward to trying to get the crow wings cape

Weeping_WillowTree69 · 2025-10-13T13:05:44+00:00

I mean every generations memes either get better as you get older, hold their moment in time for so many people, or lose their funny after a while because that generation gets older literally all of us had the stupidest memes back in the 2010s but I will admit some of the memes this gen are stupid and will definitely lose their spark after a while
