It's suuuuper janky, i got the switch version and it had lots of bugs. I'd say if you want the achievements and for like $5 yeah but anything more then that probably not.
Since SugarBabe got temp banned literally a day after she said she was gonna revitalize the thread and I forgot until reminded by sticker notifications, here is some NeoContent for the .5 people starving for it!
I have 2 invisible pets I have turned into new species via the customization system. My Lovecraftian being and my corn alien monster.

Invisible pets are so fun lol.... these are fantastic. You've got a good eye--that might sound silly of me to say, but I feel a lot of Neopets customs aren't coordinated (especially color-wise) so well like yours!
Most of my pets are pretty basic because I prefer them to have less things on them, but this guy is my favorite. I wish I could say what his name is, because it suits him perfectly lol. These days I like to collect pets with names I like, or the oldest pets I can find in the pound. Even though I prefer my pets with less clothes on, I dislike that they made UCs a paid thing.

I appreciate that! I spent hours looking through the customization website for idea to find pieces to make them. Those are actually the outliers of my pets... I don't really customize my pets with clothing at all outside of maybe a handheld accessory that is thematic. For similar OpSec reasons all my posts are stripped of identifying account information but I'm trying to think of what Blumaroo puns for musicians there might be for your guy, haha. Seems like he might be a Ringo Starr or Elton Jon (maybe I'm focusing too much on the glasses) though the guitar wouldn't work there.
Yeah, it does such that UCs are payed content... they are by FAR what I prefer to putting clothing on, just expressive poses compared to the lame baked ones for holding stuff... one of my pets from back in the day was a UC before they depreciated the system. I've managed to get a good amount because I had to have side accounts for storing extra pets since I wanted one of each unique species and color... and you're allowed to both collect the anniversary NC on sides as well as trade non-valued items with them so over the years I got enough on them to buy the 5+1 packs of 4 sides which got me most for what I wanted.

I do very similarly! A few pets are themed and have clothes, but mostly I just paint them. I don't have any UCs myself yet, and never did before the change. I genuinely think that's freakin' epic how old your account is and all that you've achieved and that you had a UC.
(Jk <3)
The new UCs are probably what I'll use my Anniversary NC on from now on since I think I have all the pet slots on my sides...
back in my day faerie land was in the air.
in recent years i got a lutari
after highschool i had some down town and used my free time and a friend to corner the amrket on medical supplies for like 4 months. using those funds we bough more pricey petpets and resold those.
i became a millionaire and painted a pet or two. did some trades for secret avatars. and now i await for the site to spark joy again.
big fan of the stock market, faerieland racers, ice skating penguin cates notes, meerca chase. i like the advent calendar but never do it.
im a casual at heart but every now and then. i reformat my shop and corner a new niche part of the market. for like 2 years it was weak bottled faeries.
Same here. I returned around 2019 (the same time I made my Kiwifarms account, funny) and have been playing on-and-off since. Right now it's "on". I like Meerca Chase. I also liked Faerie Bubbles. Sometimes Ice Cream Machine. They're the only games I really go back to. Mostly what I do these days is restock and run my shop. The only other thing I do is stocks, food club, and browse the pound for ancient pets (or names I like) For a few years now, they've had an annual Faerie Festival and I like to stock up on Omelettes every year because they always inflate around the festival since they're worth so many donation points. I also made like 10 million NPs in two days from Gardening items because everyone gets one Faerie Quest a day throughout the festival, and Gardening is an item pool they'll ask from. New TNT made it so that you could reroll what item the Faeries ask for near the end of this year's festival though. They ruined me....
I don't really keep up with what the hell is going on really. One day I came back and Faerieland was on the ground. Nowadays, apparently Fyora isn't the Queen anymore??? And they turned the Grey Faerie into a whole new character who is They/Them? Now, I love making fun of everyone, but I actually wouldn't mind if they just made a NEW character to be a They/Them Faerie (I wouldn't love it but it wouldn't make me foam at the mouth angry) but they just went and completely changed a canon character. I would have preferred if Baelia realized being a Grey Faerie is pretty kewl actually and didn't magically become someone else.
I'm impressed by your Neopets dedication. Hell yeah!! Take your Jetsam for a spin on the merry go round for me!

Also: I missed Scamander Day at the Money Tree. I could just buy one, but I've never caught one from the tree and want to. Darn!
My favorite thing the new team did was make this an Avatar:
MORE NEOPETS MAYMAYS (I did not make the first one idk whose Quick Ref that is!):

Yeah, that is really the biggest problem - co-opting a character that had a theme and completely dashing it for progressive points. Earlier in the thread there is a post from someone with some real insight into how that change effected them because of what the Grey Faerie used to mean and it made me hate the change even more when I already hated it while it was happening. I'd recommend finding it if you haven't read it, only a few pages to look through luckily.
On the topic of games it's a bit interesting how once you have enough NP the games are basically unnecessary outside of playing them for enjoyment or trophies. I got the trophies from all but a few of the games (we're talking like 3 or 4 of those still available) which are usually more popular and out of my general skillset... one day I'll get that darn Desruct-O-Match trophy. Some of them also just have really good music, I've even posted it before in the OneyPlays thread but the Meepit Juice Break song is a genuine banger, I adore it.
I also forgot about Scamander day, but I did legit get a Scamander from it a few years ago and it was annoying enough to where I don't wanna do it again.
I gave it a Feels react when I first ventured over to this Thread! I always lurk a lot before posting to get the idea of a thread's culture, not much to lurk in this one, but I read every page (admittedly did not read the politisperging parts though). I just wanted to express my own disappointment in the decision because I was totally unaware of it until the festival started last month. I'll never articulate it as well as WitchOfDarkness did, of course, but it needs to be reiterated that it was a bad move. I'm sure it probably alienated literally everybody with depression.

Lol yep. I don't even bother doing Food Club anymore either. I have been attempting to get some trophies for my semi-bare profile though.
Well, well, well... aren't you the Neopets master... you've got Neopia in the palm of your little hoof...
There needs to be a Scrunt UC costume. The April Fool's old art was a good first step, but they need to go hard on it with all the weird art from the early wild west days. I want a Bruce Forsyth pet, dammit! Or a little Adam and Donna I can pretend are NFTs.
