So I don't comment often but I'm livid! The alchemy crap again?! It just drains the little money we get. My companion hasn't returned with anything useful. I really don't feel like wasting all my manna on an outfit that was lazily put together last minute. I do projects last minute too, but I make sure they are presentable! I kind of enjoy the sheet music, but what is up with the freaking tutu!?! It's just trash! I know you can do better, I've seen it! We all have! So what's going on?! I was getting excited for the upcoming music event on eldarya and MCL, due to them usually being my favorite. But BOTH have been huge disappointments. I played mallets for a few years and tried a little piano so luckily for me I was able to get a hold on the minigame (AFTER 4 FREAKING TRIES!!!). But others aren't so lucky. I really like the idea you had behind it but players are struggling. Why don't you do a slow piece, with one note at a time and a large enough break between notes that players can prepare for more easily? Or allow for more mistakes? Just something! Please figure yourselves out Beemoov, or you might lose quite a few players.

Edit: Raise the drop rate already! This is ridiculous. I have a Galorze companion with 309 luck and it hasn't returned with ANY of the needed materials to even create the dreaded outfit. And don't get me started with the companions. Quite difficult to find at first but then once you find one, that same one is found a lot more often and becomes a pain. Shouldn't it be the other way around?

I really hope the next event turns out better than this. And (fingers crossed) hopefully no freaking alchemy mini-game anymore! Players have communicated that they do not enjoy it, so why in the world would you force it on us? Anyway, if something doesn't change by the Halloween event I'm leaving. I'm not going to put up with this anymore. I'm sure a lot of other players feel the same. Figure it out Beemoov...

Well... I was so hyped because of the event, and then got disappointed when I knew it will be with alchemy again, but remained a bit excited, because why not? I mean, I love events.

BUT no. This event is just a no for me. The piano minigame is just unplayable. I would complain about the alchemy *that just drains all your maana btw*, but the free outfit is actually a bit weird (?) in an ugly way, (except for the wig, which is very beautiful). The luck rate in exploration is ridiculously low. The final illustration become unattainable just like that.

I guess I will only focus on catch the familiars (those are pretty cute indeed) and, with a LOT of luck, get the wig.

Wow. I never post to express my pleasure or displeasure. I have been a player since the beginning of MCL and Eldarya. I am not loving the recent turn either of these games have taken. I only half-ass log in daily just to get the daily manna and in MCLUL, the coins.

Having said that, I was usually eager to log in more than once a day during special events for either game. This time around? I'm not even treating this music event like it's an event at all. I am simply not participating in it because it is a time and manna waster. Seriously hate that alchemy was thrust on us twice now. I get it being some additional feature during game play for those who are caught up with the episodes, but for the rest of us (my self included), I'd prefer to save my manna to get caught up. I mean seriously! I've been playing since the start, and between the events and how quickly the episodes came out at the beginning, I am still stuck at episode 19! Not to mention that for the event companions and some other rare companions, we have to purchase food from the store or buy them at an unusually higher price through the market.

The team has to reevaluate the programming of these games. I am no longer eager to find out what happens next. The love interests are boring. And the events have lost their touch.

I have spent real money to play these games. But that was when I was enjoying the games and simply couldn't wait to find out what happens next.

What ever... 

I usually don't comment, but jeez, this event is a bit of a train wreck, hm? I'm not to type of person to be rude without reason. That being said I have one question: did the team consider the players at all? I mean, I'm sort of used to our treatment at the hands of Beemoov thanks to the whole MCL situation, so I'm not super surprised. Although, I am sad to see this game being affected by dubious decisions as well.

Everyone's been pretty vocal so I'll try keep it short.

Alchemy? Not really practical. We have no real motivation to use it. If we were able to SAVE Mana by playing it, most of us would. We've already told you we don't like it, especially when it's highly tied into the event. Why did the team think it was a good idea to do it again?

Mini-game? I miss the bug. Despite being ridiculous, I actually had fun mashing keys to finish. Like many others, I'm using a laptop, so cramming all my fingers onto it's small keys isn't comfortable, nor fun.

Companions? Super cute, but I haven't found a single one, nor it's bait.

Music event overall? I made the hair (and that's it), but I guess I have to skip the rest of the event for the first time. I even put up with the Valentine event. Instead of a fun music themed celebration, we were gifted with a frustrating torture session. How festive.

I know Beemoov doesn't listen to their players usually (the mini-game's 'fix' being the only time I can remember), but I'll say this regardless; It's time to re-evaluate your choices. Players for both MCL and Eldarya aren't happy, again. Your games are only successful when you have the support of the people who play them, and right now? You don't.

We've already covered the unplayable mini game, quite a few of us are having trouble finding items and pets on the map (regardless of rarity and luck), so I won't echo what has already been said in that respect.

I can use some of the clothing items, so I'll try and get the bits that I want. I'm having an issue with not being able to collect my wig, but I've reported that. The companions are cute, and as I always try to collect them all, I'll bid on the eggs if the price is worth it. In terms of playing the event to its full intended purpose, I'll give it a miss. Exploration isn't going well, and the mini game is, well, keeping in tradition of events getting worse and worse. I can see that a lot of effort has been put into it, but I'm really dreading what you guys will pull for Halloween (my favourite event in the whole game).

Without sounding dramatic, my biggest takeaway from this event is that I feel like I will be abandoning Beemov entirely after a few more events. I used to occasionally see what MCL was doing, but I'm not even tempted to go back there after hearing how bad the event is going. Eldarya is the last game that is tying me to this company, but even the things that I used to get excited about aren't that great anymore. I don't want you to overhaul the entire site like what has ruined MCL, but I feel like we need to at least feel like we have a chance at completing events. If it gets to the end of one and we haven't even gotten close to finishing, none of us are going to spend actual money on buying all of those missing items. If there are 100 items in total, we would feel better about buying those 10 missing items. Buying 90? No chance

I don't post a lot, but I've found myself so frustrated that I'm going to.

I play piano, I'd like to believe I play well enough. There is a reason why the most common measure is 4/4 and that's used when the hands have MUCH more space than the upper left corner of a computer.

They should not have "fixed" the bug as it allowed players to make mistakes. When playing piano you hit a wrong note and move on you do not get slapped after the sixth time and told to leave, you play the WHOLE piece.

I despise the alchemy system as a whole. I think it could be cool if the scrolls and parts weren't exclusively bought or exceedingly rare in exploration and they didn't cost all of my mana to create.

I also only like the hair of the alchemy outfit, the rest of it and the bank outfit look ridiculous to me. This is especially true when you compare to the outfits from last year's event.

I find it really funny, in a sad way, that Beemoov doing this kind of thing brought so many people who barely post at all to the forums out of the woodworks.

Truly a uniting rage, huh? (￢_￢;)

Well fudge, they fixed the minigame. I hadn't had a chance to take advantage of that bug. Ah well.

Beemoov, this is the first event I've participated in where I'm actually gonna complain about something. Since everyone is basically saying the same thing, I'll keep is short and sweet: the music game is crap, the alchemy outfit is crap, and the fact that to get an actual good outfit I would have to spend my real money is also crap. Please make any and all future events a little more enjoyable so you can keep your fanbase.

I might buy the bonus outfit, but it kind of looks like a Disney knockoff and the actual event is a disaster. We already know the alchemy lab sucks up players' manaa, the outfit looks like it was made by a child, and the game is kind of difficult if you're not a piano player.

I appreciate that you can buy old items for gold and manaa, but that's about the only thing I don't hate.

For the piano game how does it work? I hit the numbers when they hit the line at the bottom but it said I missed it. Do you hold the keys or do you have to hit it before it reaches the line?

Not really having a lot of fun over here

Event mini game IS STILL HORRIBLE!!

Ok, so I just had one game with only 5 keys and I was able to get some points from that, but all the other games had 6 keys?

Do they give you one easier game if you fail enough or something?

//Edit, I have still not found any alchemy parts. Can they only be found from a certain map?

Okay, so it seems like the first 2 games in a day will have 5 keys and the other 3 will have 6. I think it resets if you fail though, not sure on that.

As for the alchemy items, it's just completely random, you should be able to find them anywhere. The drop rate is pretty bad though so I would personally recommend sticking to areas that cost 10 energy.

write a bad script with triggering themes and not add warnings because "spoilers"

wait so I'm confused with the point system for the mini-gane???
so I failed at a few notes and I thought it said it would give me 30points and I'm alright then I tried again and got a perfect score and thought it said it would give me 40 points but turns out it's my total score which is kinda confusing (Also apparently it doesn't matter if you get a perfect score or make mistakes)
ALso the 5 keys should be the normal mini-game and not the 6 keys, thought they fixed it but turns out they just made a easier one if you keep failing but once you start winning you go back to the hard one

I heve sent my beckett 13 times to explore today and he has only found an earth key and a marquil that I was able to catch. Why is the event items drop rate so low?

so you buy it obvs

I've only been finding one species of companions since the event. Is it just random and coincidence or can every guard only find one of the companions? (Since their colour schemes kind of look guard based)

Beemov really has been making questionable decisions, huh?

First of all, the outfit. Why alchemy? As most of the players here have said, it sucks up all our mana that we need for the actual base game. Sure, we can send our companions out to look for ingredients but the drop rate is so abysmal that crafting a whole outfit from exploration alone is almost impossible. Alchemy just seems like a new gimmick for Beemov to suck more money from their playerbase by convincing them to buy mana.

And the outfit itself doesn't even look that good. That's actually a good thing for me since I'm not wasting more mana to craft it but it still rankles me that it's so expensive but not even that pretty. I guess the hair's ok (not a fan of how it changes the eyebrows though) but the outfit itself looks like Gardienne just wrapped some music sheets around herself and called it a day.

Not to mention, the bank outfit. Discount Merida much?

And the minigame. Dear god, the minigame. Why is it so complicated? Over 60 notes and we're only allowed to screw up five times? Did anyone actually beta test this because literally all of us are complaining about how bad it is, especially after the bug was removed.

I'll give Beemov credit, the companions are cute. That's it. That's the only "good" part of the event.

In my opinion, this Music Day is really a step down from last year. Last year had 3 gorgeous outfits and the minigame was a relatively simple game of hangman related to companion names. Even though there was only one companion, the Galorze was simply beautiful, even more so than this year companions.

I have seen all 3 companions, so it's not guard based don't worry!

Also, another 130 energy spent to get nothing...
I met 2 companions and failed the capture for both of them.

Exploring for this event is as tiring as trying to play the mini game (I was honestly surprised by the jump in speed between the 4th and 5th play)

Ah, thank you! I was getting worried for a bit!

So I see people are having problems finding anything w/ their becketts?? Check this out: I have a chiromagnus with 377 luck and 160 energy and while I’ve encountered all the companions a few times, I’ve found only 2 ingredients so far. (;￣ω￣)

The drop rates are worse than abysmal. Please fix it, it won't make anyone buy more maana, people will just stop playing.
