I... I just woke up to the message when I logged in to do my dailies this morning and needless to say it hit me like a ton of bricks. I was one of the players who had pre-downloaded the game and had been playing since Day 1. The game had become part of my daily routine for the past year. And to suddenly learn that it's all going to be gone soon.... man that was tough...
I created a fake JP Itunes account for the express purpose of downloading the JP version, but starting all over, losing all of the limited girls and memoria I had gotten my hands on (Tart, Liz, Kimono Madoka, Swimsuit Iroha, Hayate), the backgrounds, outfits, and memoria from events past... I'm going to miss all of that. I'm holding out hope that I'll get another chance at grabbing some of the outfits because I prided myself on collecting all of them, especially since I clearly won't be able to save for them in EN anymore.
I'll probably be using the same ID I did on the EN server, Paladin, in case you want to find me there.
