Winx Club Virtual World?

Subject: Winx Club Virtual World? Sun Sep 06, 2015 9:41 am

Hello! So, do you guys remember when the Winx Club site had forums and the virtual world and then they removed it? Well, i don't think it was fair. I believe it limits winxers very much. Just imagine being able to play a Winx Club mmorpg where you can visit Alfea,Cloud Tower, and all of the magic dimensions! I know it's basically impossible but a game dev that i know in real life was able to manage creating a simulation world game with just being in high school! I was wondering if there would be anyone intrested in being in a non-paying (obviously) game dev group to start creating a world where winxers can be together?

But the Roblox design is so.....square Crying or Very sad

I was thinking more of a full out mmorpg. I've decided to make a progress session in the creativity section so people know how i'm doing and so people can know what i need help with Dance

I agree with ya, it would be so cool to have a winx style MMORPG.

It's a shame to have such a large world and not be able to explore it yourself.
There are a lot of fantasy shows and books that would only improve with a game.

but games take a long time, and a lot of money to make.

Depending on how large the fandom is, there may or may not be some Minecraft servers that recreate the Winx worlds in them. Though you've said you didn't like square when the other poster mentioned ROBLOX.

Trust me if I could turn back time, I'd do it. I lost a few good friends because the Winx forum was my only network to them. This some would theorize is what caused me to snap and become the super obsessed over the top fan I am

Thing was, they didn't do that much with the virtual world, like at all. All you could do is chat, buy stuff, decorate house and Charmix Garden, you have to plant and protect flowers. They didn't deliver on their promises of going to Tutti Frutti or having a pet. Also, it was really slow, the loading times was slow(not even kidding), and super buggy. So it was fair for them to pull the area down for business purposes.

What wasn't fair is that they took the forum away since a lot of people did use it, and how it connected the winxers all around the world. I just wish that they payed more attention to that to see that it was popular.

Honestly, I get asked why I'm such an extreme Winx club fan. Some people assume it's from work, my past, my current environment, and many other speculations. But the real reason I hold on to all things Winx so dearly and am such a huge fan is because I learned that it can be lost at any point of time. I wascgoingvthrough a rough time when I found Winx and when they took away the forum. This is why I cling to it as dearly and as ridiculously as I go because it could be taken from me at any point of time again for any arbitrary reason, or no reason at all.

Yeah, they shouldn't taken away the forum. Winx Adventure, yes, I can see why, but the forum, I can't.

here's the thing, I made a lot of friends and due to rainbows very strict guidelines including no ages, no real world contact data, etc. I couldn't even create a contact list of all my friends in my CRM at work to be able to continue my working friendships. There was no personal messaging and as a result I couldn't even give friends my email out of public view. winxclub.com was not just a shotcut on employee desktops but was actually mandated as the company wide home page for the longest time until they took out the forums. That passed off a lot of employees, still does to this day. it got so bad we tried to start our own winx forum but it never caught on. further we had to have a special "Winx Club Grief Line" internally for employees who "couldn't handle loosing this which was a big part of our infrastructure" and needed to talk to someone. the people who worked the hotline were trained by management how to handle certain things quite well so long as it related to loosing the winx forum. I still remember the extension and the Presenter I had to give breaking the bad news. the internal winx hotline was 89469 (8-WINX) from any phone in the building. Sad it came to this.

What does that has to do with Winx Adventure? Which I might add that a group has already made vast improvements (there is a thread by that particular group somewhere about how they are 90% done of the fan version and just working on the actual game part).
