Hey Adventurers and Ragna-addicts!
I am Lo-fi, the creator and author of RagnaMobileGuide.com. I maintain and write all the articles in this blog, with a little help from my friends. I get by with a little help from my friends .
This blog is a love-letter to my childhood.
To the 10-year-old me who, since Day 1, got hooked to an MMORPG game called Ragnarok Online, the first of its kind at a time where the Internet was still starting to take shape, and where our modems still had to make a lot of weird noises before we all get connected to thousands of other players online.
To those sleepless nights of staring at the CRT monitor, grinding for just one more level before the dial-up connection runs out of prepaid hours.
To that time where getting scammed by a warper priest broke our hearts, because 2,000 zeny already meant so much. But it only made us wiser and more motivated to grind harder and become more powerful.
To those times where getting our first ever card drop, or getting our first character to finally light up with the aura after countless hours, days, weeks and months wasted, meant the whole world.
To skipping meals at school and saving up on our school allowance just so we can squeeze in a few bucks to play with friends at the internet cafe after class.
To long lost friends and guildmates we battled and defended castles with—I wonder where they are and how they’re doing now, probably working on a 9-5 job too like me, or spending time with their spouse and kids. Wherever you guys may be and whatever you’re up to, I hope you are all doing well.
Ragnarok players never quit—they only go on a hiatus.
