Flight Rising Discussion

Unfortunately, auraboas :c I'm really sad about it, because it's two things I REALLY like, snakes and feathered wings, but they're just so.... mid. I can't even put my finger on what I dislike, they just don't quite hit the spot for me. I WANT to like them, especially since I adore snakes and I've been begging for more feathered dragons for ages, they're so popular and get so many cool skins, I've just never really found one that I liked, they're just meh to me and it makes me sad

Aethers and Veilspuns :(

I love the concept of fairy Ancients, but they lack that fairy-like 'vibe'. I can't put it into words, but their genes seem muted to me, despite being colorful?

Oddly I find the fairy-like je-ne-sais-quoi very common in Everluxes and... Obelisks.

There's nothing about veilspun's breed artwork that I shouldn't like, I feel like I should really love them but they just don't do anything for me. I think it's partly influenced by my disappointment over not getting any free breed changes/eggs for them(I was on hiatus before their release so wasn't aware of the heads up) Staff doesn't owe us free stuff, nothing wrong with them not giving us free stuff, it just killed my excitement for them and I never gained any interest in them after that. Also I hate that they're canonically tiny, they look like they would be colossal but nope itty bitty.

Veilspuns are very fun in concept and genes, but I’m not a huge fan of the poses unfortunately. They would be fun if they had cooler poses.

Guardians

Standard dragon visuals, really interesting lore, but them being a default breed kinda makes me shy away from them usually

I've got three right now tho

i love some of the ancient breeds but the lack of customization really kills it for me. i totally understand why staff wouldnt want to draw all that clothing again for every new breed bc the site has hundreds of clothing now, but i just cant connect to them as much/ i might pick some up for acheivement purposes but idk what id do with them after

Most of the ancients. I adore Aethers, Dusthides, and Everluxes. I do like all the others, but I find them difficult to get attached to. Mind you I spent an arm and a leg making a gen1 pair of Sandsurges, but they still don't quite hit the spot.

Pearlcatchers. I really liked them when I started the game (partially due to not discovering other breeds and sticking to the ones I liked). The H and M poses are alright I guess, but the F pose is just so...out there and different compared to the others??? You can barely see the pearl on the F pose and with a gene that changes its color (such as boulder) it makes it worse.
