Why did they change the logo?

I just noticed the new Mabinogi: Tempest logo has changed the font. It's so weird to look at, to me — it's almost unnerving. What happened there? Did the old version of the logo expire or something?

Even the YouTube videos about the new generation uses this new version of the logo.

Remember this? We can still see it on the main site and even above the forum.

    It's probably a temp change to hype up/draw attention to the newest generation. It looks like a storm and the generation is literally called tempest.

    I was also a bit confused as to why mabinogi was written in that flat, italic font lol.

    Probably (hopefully) going to change with part 2 :D

    Nothing new, promotion art has not used the original font for almost every generation since g17.

    Crappy choice, along with that wrestling announcer for the promo video. This is embarrassing. Smh.

    They almost always do that. The font is just going through an edgy phase. It'll go back to being cute and cuddly next patch.

    That makes sense. The new YouTube videos also seems like it is a NA variant only.

    I cringed so bad when I heard that announcer narrating. I guess announcers are cheap to hire. 9dnGeIh.png

    Nexon tried something different and i don't see any issue with this honestly. It's not like they changed the logo everywhere and forever.

    This could be a little juicy hidden clue us Lore seekers can get a bite on to enjoy finding out.

    Due to the fact the Black Moon crest look like a storm. The Arc remind me of one of Shakespeare's for I was not far from when I had claimed that it will be like "The Plague" while still curious about this "Moon" for it seems they are running on time preparing for something big.

    I just can't wait > w <

    I mean the topic of discussion was quite simple, and there shouldn't be much elaborate answers.
    The answer to whether the old logo still exists, you will find out in a few ways before you get onto the game.
    Whether the logo exists on the launcher. When the game client boots up, they will show the various logos of the parties involved.
    When the client is loading for you to log in, they usually spin the logo at the bottom right corner. If any of these have changed, then you could be concerned whether the logo is still valid.

    Other ways of finding out would be to see if the logo is still found on the various Mabinogi websites of Nexon.

    Highly doubt an official logo would expire as these designs are normally patented.

    Yeah probably picked up a random one off of the street and paid him in Nx and lanyards. XD

    Seriously NA, that was awful. smh.
