Hello everyone!
I owned Petz a very long time ago and used to play it when I was in middle school back on good old Windows 98 (and even XP). Being a middle/high school kid, I went through/ lost tons of data and don't have any of my original Petz or even photos (I'm quite sad because they were really cute!). I knew what hexed breeds were (and even downloaded a bunch from Carolyn's Creations), but I was too young to join forums and make friends (my mom used to tell me strangers on the internet were bad! hehe).
In my current situation, I can't have any real pets. Then I remembered that there are virtual pets. And I got brought back to this game. I have been playing Petz 4 for a week and I joined this forum because: 1) had a few various questions about the game and 2) I think I want something more from the game than what it is and I hope to find it here. I sometimes stream my game play on Twitch for my friends.
The game at its core is really fun, but I am really sad that after all these years since the game has been out, the brand has died. I really wish the game could have gone deeper and done more. It would have been fun if the resolution of the game was bigger, if it was multiplayer online, I wish it had way more features, etc. Which brings me to another question that you guys might have the answer to: are there any new/good/interesting virtual pet games out there?? I looked at the new "Petz" but they didn't seem interesting. I did see another forum about this and will probably post/read there.
Finally, I am Thor. I have too many hobbies to name, so I'll name the ones I might can enjoy with ya'll. I GM for role playing (like Pathfinder and D&D). I play online video games (mostly Overwatch at the moment). I use Discord (and am curious if you guys have a Discord server as well?). And I'll be reading through these forums/ asking questions to hopefully discover a lot of things about this game and make some new friends
