(TLDR at the end)
ok so i need to yap a little bit about this.....
I started playing in late 2017-early 2018, but then lost my account and stopped playing until 2023. I started to get back in because i heard about the new campus that they were making. So i kept grinding at sunset island for all of the sets, while also roleplaying with my friends. The top 3 things i loved about it were
1. Creating/wearing outfits
2. Roleplaying
3. Having fun while grinding
So now were here with this new campus update with a campus 4 already. So im gonna go through each of these points and how they were completely ruined as the years went on.
#1: Creating and wearing outfits
Sunset island is a HUGE playing factor for me personally, and its kinda the only reason i STILL play this game. My only issue with this is how the economy of the game has evolved. BECAUSE TELL ME WHY A FUCKING HAND FAN IS 25,000 DIAMONDS???? All of the accessories are way to expensive for what they are. Lets look at some of the prices of various things on the store here:
Key: (S) = Seasonal item | (Tx) T= toggles X = # of toggles |
Babydoll Adorable Dress(S): $24,000
Miss Lady Rose: $50,000
Glittering Jelly Platforms(S): $14,000
Royale Rebel Laced Up Boots(S): $30,000
Princess Starfrost Figure Skates(S)(T2): $50,000
After Gym Class Scrunchie Set: $4,000
Mermaid Royalty(S): $50,000
Surf Board(S): $28,000
So, as you can tell, these prices are actually wile. Mermaid royalty is a crown with no toggles for 50k??? Most of the affordable items are either really ugly or outdated (ex. Long Elegant Gloves). It is insanely hard for newbies to crawl up the ladder to even afford a good pair of heels or a skirt. Everything is WAY too expensive, and i need the economy to crash RIGHT NOW.
#2: Roleplaying
Royale high's roleplay culture is completely dead. You can only find people wanting to roleplay on Campus 2, and that is even rare. It also doesn't help that roleplaying is made fun of, so if you go around asking people to role play a lot of players might make fun of you. And most of the audience that played during the peak of roleplaying on rh has grown out of the game and probably roblox too.
#3: Having fun while grinding
Im just gonna say it: Base Royale High isnt fun anymore. The classes have improved, Ill give it that, but they still feel a little souless, and will get repetitive after a while. The only ones i really like are the Student store dash, and the archery one. But these are also incredibly laggy. I play on a laptop, for a while i played on my phone, and id say that both are equally laggy. The lag in the new campus is UNBEARABLE, it makes it incredibly hard to even boot up the game without my computer sounding like its going to takeoff. It also doesnt help that nobody else is talking in chat, and you all are there silently grinding away.
Positives :3
Some features in recent updates are actually pretty nice and enjoyable! Like this most recent update(?) where all food and drinks are free now! This is great, ive been waiting for this a long time lol. Also the new classes are more engaging, and Campus 3 looks beautiful! New sets (not including the toy sets.) are very well made and versatile!! Some of my favorites are Fallen Fae, Starlight, Snow Swan, TTYL, and Whimsy Witch. I like the new customizeable dorms, although i do think that the stuff you can buy for them is way too expensive, i love the creativity aspect. I do like Royale High, and i do want it to succeed, but i think were too far from that now. I'm expecting RH to be dead within the next year.
TLDR
RH has lost most of the fun and whimsy it used to have and lost most of its core values. Its wayyy to expensive and grindy now, but there are some positives that have come from this. The positives arent enough though, so im expecting RH to die very soon.
