The Beginning and the End

Hi everyone! Sorry I haven't been around to post much, but I've been busy with real life stuff. Season 2 released while I was out of the country and since coming home, it's been a whirlwind of stuff. I haven't played a lot of Line Rangers Season 2, but I did save Sally. I can't believe how much the game has changed. In some ways, it's given the game a new life, but in some ways it's become super complicated and the climb feels more steep. They did a good job of addressing certain player gripes, but in the process, at least in my opinion, they've created some new issues. Well, love it or hate it, I'm just glad we got to rescue our Sally finally. Spoiler alert: Turns out Mephisto is a total lamer and his boss is the one to beat. Hah!

This is a tough post to write, but this is the last blog post for Line Rangers & Friends. It's been an unbelievable run with all of you. The players around the world have breathed life into this blog in ways I never thought would be possible! The Line Rangers game was a lot of fun for me and I do continue to play it, but it has taken a backseat to a bunch of other things that I have to do and I just can't keep up with all the changes! Writing the blog has been fun for me, and I hope it was fun to read. I intend to keep writing on other topics in other places :) I thank all of you who have been readers and supporters of this blog and my writing. I wish you all the best of luck with your Rangers!

Where do you go for your Line Rangers English discussions now? I am an avid reader of Reddit and I enjoy the discussion format of Reddit so I encourage you to go to the Line Rangers subreddit to post your questions, comments and discussions on the game: https://www.reddit.com/r/LineRangers/ 

Huge shout-out to:

  • My friend Stru who first turned me on to Line Rangers. Thanks for making me lose many hours of my life and so, so many dollars, Stru. 
  • Rangers Elite Club: my Line Rangers friends who started many thoughtful discussions -- you guys know who you are, you are awesome. 
  • Elite Rangers Masters group: the international teams represented in this Masters group have been a total eye-opener to just how big this game is and how far players are willing to go to be the best of the best. I learned a lot from these kind, friendly people. Keep on rocking! 
  • Last but definitely not least - Taiwanese Line Rangers group 銀河特攻隊 & Wei S: Incredibly, incredibly smart. I am always in awe of the data that comes out of this group. Their published articles are here in Chinese. Wei S has published so many videos that have helped players. View Wei's ever-growing collection of videos here. 

Thank you all so very much for making this experience awesome! And as always, good luck and have fun!

    Thanks panic, you have been extremely helpful for me with Rangers. However, I think we all knew this time would come. It's inevitable and understandable. Salute and good luck moving forward.

    Dear Panic, Thank you very much for all the awesome writing you've been doing on this blog about LR. I have been avidly following your blog from virtually day one. I'm feeling very Nostalgic right now. I remember way back in April or May last year I would constantly visit you blog in the hope of digesting more of your thoughts on this game. It added so much fun to the game itself and for that I thank you. Although it's sad to here this is your last post I completely understand why and wish u all the best! Hopefully u don't immediately leave all your group chats!
    And..... How awesome we FINALLY SAVED SALLY!! At least we can all enjoy that moment:) who cares about her planet lol
    Take care, Tim.

    Panic, First, I have to thank you for this blog on Line Rangers. I never would have made it as far as I have without you. I don't know what I will do without your blog. It is such a great resource for every update, which I had trouble figuring out for myself. And you have served as the center of a great community that has rallied around you.

    This blog and your work are quite incredible, as I have found few resources (and none comparable to yours) in English as the game appears to be little known in the US.

    I completely understand your need to move on. The game has changed so much with this newest update. In some ways it is a great new beginning (that game, not your moving on) for players who may have gotten bored with the game and progressed as far as was possible up til now. But it also seems to kind of cast aside the hard work and progress that a lot of people put into making it this far.

    Again, thank you for all your help and work on the blog. You will be greatly missed.

    Zanshin
