I could've gotten rain world because I won a silly raffle in another server

#

Deltarune is free it won’t increase the taxes you have to pay

#

I wonder if we'll ever get another track like Roar of the Jungle Dragon

#

i still haven't played through all of rain world

But my ass hated hard games so I settled for a chill puzzle platformer instead

You should play gris now!

It's like 4 hours for a full playthrough

i hope yharim's theme doesn't have lyrics

That was a joke

Funny how you can be at your peak physical form and simultaneously die from old age

hoary berry
# edgy fable I mean, if done right, why not?

you could make that argument for literally any design choice in any form of media
and sure, it makes sense
but i can't envision a theme for yharim where i would enjoy lyrics, so for now it's my wish that it doesn't have any

split mortar

If yharim theme has lyrics it's probably gonna be a synth voice

Smth smth twisted garden

Yea

I would prefer if it didn't use synth voice though

trackpad moment

split mortar
#

Have it be like SBC lyrics where they add instead of being the focus clueless

real silo
#

Yea

#

I'd be fine with chorus yharim

#

Lead vocals need to be perfect if you don't want it to be blegh

glacial rampart
#

yeah we're definitely not getting anything like SBC or Rotjd for any other songs

#

That is a lot to do

real silo
#

The one good synth voiced song I've heard is a canvas without stars

#

That's the one instance where I think using synth was better than using a real singer

#

Every other one I've listened to would sound better with a real singer

#

Granted there isn't a lot

#

Since I don't listen to vocaloid/synth stuff

untold oracle
#

Chorus would be cool

#

How many Big Macs can Xeroc make using magic

Uhh when did Calamitas leave Yharmy

#

Before game

split mortar
#

Like a decade ish

untold oracle
#

Uhh my timeline might be a little fucked

#

I basically have Cal leaving Yharim around 1–2 years before game start

#

That’s closer to when braelor and statis fight yharminarm

untold oracle
#

Yes

pliant ruin

cal left the yharmy when she was still not an adult iirc

i'm like 90% saure

untold oracle
#

My story has already butchered the mod and game thoroughly I don’t even see changing it at this point lol

#

Also hai chees

#

I mean yuri fan

#

Based

pliant ruin
#

it's part of why her character is so compelling imo because having her go "wait am i the bad guy" as she's at a young age who's still figuring things out makes her alot more sympathethic and understandable than having her figure that out as a 20 something year old who definitely would have a good understanding of why killing thousands is bad

#

hello :D

mighty zenith
wheat walrus
#

and that's bad

#

she is literally yharim 2 she just didn't want you to steal the spot smh :/

#

calamitas is evil

#

terrarian is eviler

#

yharim is the best one but still a bit evil

#

permafrost is a good guy he just was in between yharim and calamitas who are evil and eviler

pliant ruin
#

true...

wheat walrus
#

but yea terrarian is the true bad guy

#

he did what yharim did and worse!

#

he killed gods and dragons alike, he killed queen bee too, he just spares claamitas cause she is evil like the terrarian but not as much and the terrarian is teaching her to be eviler!!!

pliant ruin
#

the terrarian killedm y grandma

wheat walrus
#

the terrarian canonically robbed banks before beocming strogn!!!

#

fabsol told me!

untold oracle
#

Worst of all, the Terrarian killed Yharon, and killing a dragon is literally worse than genocide!!

wheat walrus

yharon was right

Terrarian breathed oxygen

untold oracle

Gasp!

yharon was a heroic dragon who could not even say a final goodbye to his good master yharim...

Okay how does shitfartversal compare to gigazloingusversal

Okay so like

They have humanoid bodies. but i see them right. and i think. yeah thats a fish

wheat walrus

So it's just you making us aware of the bullshit HDfailure

pliant ruin

otonilou? that's a whole ass person. shes got a person face and everything.

so my headcanon is quite shrimple

theyre fish but in disguise

mighty zenith

unlike other illmeran species whatever species otonilou comes from is not actually a marine animal/fish turned into a humanoid but rather some form of hominid that adapted to a marine lifestyle and thus became convergently similar to jellyfish

Whatever the fuck is going on with the Cal fandom

He can sorta

Dimension hop

But i wouldnt call that a outerverse thing gulpsplosion

mighty zenith
#

that doesnt mean he can

destroy the fucking universe

#

thats the issue

ruby heart
#

Yes

split mortar
spare pier
#

Yeah but he isn't dimension hopping because he can scream and it outputs enough energy to tear a hole through spacetime

mighty zenith
#

he can make portals but people automatically associate that with strength

untold oracle
spare pier
#

He can dimension hop because he has a specific brand of magic that allows him to do it hdflr

wheat walrus
#

shadowspec bars are beyond explanation and therefore they are beyond comprehension which is beyond platonic concepts which are boundless or wsomething

ruby heart
#

Nefarious now noxus is a diferent case

But it would take him some time to do so

(A economical ammount of time)

sometimes i wish calamity didn't use the word "god"

wheat walrus

"incomprehensible" arguments my beloved...

its a good word but oh my lord people just cannot look at it in a way that isnt "biblical God"

haha get it????

We didnt had multiple people claim themselves as divine beings

Or envoys/ messiahs

Like One Piece is right there

||Nika, the Sun God||

#

||No one is saying Luffy is eatmyassversal||

pliant ruin
#

One thing i will say abt gods
Is that while i think its fitting for arrogant guys to call themselves gods im not sure how fitting it is for someone like otonilou
so mayhaps alot of "gods" didn't even call themselves gods and it's just that yharim called them all that because bla bla bla propanda bla bla bla to make them seem arrogant etc

ruby heart
split mortar
#

Oh but nucleosynthesis is star level or something

We gotta be multiversal

untold oracle
#

One piece..,

magic epoch
#

pissversal

spare pier
#

Yeah

ruby heart
#

Principally with yharim godseeking propaganda

#

And the higher gods calling themselves so

#

Or atleast the more vocal guys

wheat walrus
#

Monster Hunter has stuff like Ibushi and Narwa being titled "Wind God" and "Thunder Goddess", and Amatsu is referred to as a Dragon God several times; these 3 all still scale to Country Level, maybe Multi-Continent Level with some calcs but usually Country Level

spare pier
#

A God is a powerful being with near unrivaled power over a specific aspect of the world

#

That's what Gods have been for

#

Ever

split mortar
#

And also the fact god may be like Cthulhu

Just means something different to them

ruby heart
#

So its likely otonilou for example didnt call herself that

pliant ruin
#

you dare call yourself a god you ARROGANT WRETCH!!! GRAHHHH

dude i never called myself that i'm literally a jellyfish

magic epoch
#

calamity lore would be so much simpler if yharim fucking died like he should have

ruby heart
#

But the population and stuff yes

2nd is dire miralis

True there is miralis

not counting variants because

And also the other 2 members of the fatalis family

Alatreon and Safi'jiva are tied pretty much

If you count that

And I think Alatreon is stronger than Safi personally

Not at all

I mean alatreon was very panicked with safi existance

Welcome to Monster-Discussion channel, where we talk about a game series I have never played or understood.

ruby heart
#

It went out of its way to go break its eggs

split mortar
#

Isn’t fatalis meant to be like

The dragon that all world ending dragons fear type thing

pliant ruin
#

How can we make this about calamity lore...

ruby heart
#

Fatalis is the strongest dragon ™️ yes

#

Not world ending tho

wheat walrus
#

Alatreon and Safi'jiiva share a spot, their fight is explicitly stated to be unsure of outcome, can be argued that Alatreon has an edge as it is believed to be the "natural counter to Safi'jiiva's unprecedented power"; I'd argue Dire Miralis is slightly beyond Alatreon just based on how it was designed as the second Forbidden Monster in 3rd gen

Fatalis is kinda the biggest guy

spare pier
#

Safi'jiiva and Alatreon are polar opposites, one directly alters the fundamental ecossystem of the world while the other hunts and destroys what Safi creates

wheat walrus
#

they are close though

ruby heart

Its biggest feat was destroying a town (a big town yes but like not the world)

Talking about Dragons from Monster Hunter has made me wonder.... do we have any other official dragon designs besides yharon

I want to design drop him

i kinda headcanon dragon of gluttony being like

wheat walrus
# wheat walrus (it was a country)

also Fatalis ingame was implied several times to be capable of "ending everything", which the MHWI Divebook further expands as being "not a figurative expression, but a fact", and also having the entire thing of "ending every living thing"; I say Fatalis has the whole world-ending shtick but it wasn't really explained up until Iceborne

ruby heart

For statigel set

We ironically were talking about Dragon of Gluttony yesterday

Besides a dragonator, a guy and their cat

# ruby heart A new black dragon/ forbiden monster

a monster that plays a similar role, or even have "Black Dragon" in the title could work, butttttttttttttttttttttttttt Forbidden Monster is kinda impossible since that is a term referring to how they were treated prior to the 15th anniversary and stuff

brasil numero um.... campeao do mundo.....

But yeah, I do have a general design idea for every Dragon

ruby heart
#

God created fatalis to destroy the british population

spare pier
#

Except Flame

ruby heart
#

Specifically

#

I think flame should

wheat walrus
ruby heart
#

Be a fatalis moment

spare pier
#

I have no idea what Flame could look like

ruby heart
#

Just a medieval western dragon

#

:tm;

pliant ruin
#

Honestly i agree

split mortar
spare pier
#

At the same time I think, yeah generic ass dragon can work

ruby heart
#

We have so many wacky dragons

pliant ruin
#

I think flame honestly would fit best being just a generic european dragon

#

It also fits the narrative role for one too bcuz like

ruby heart
#

Providence was likely design wise just a paladin/ shining knight

#

Western

pliant ruin
#

yeah being evil and violent and breathing fire and being slain by a knight

wheat walrus
#

yea Flame being generic dude could work

pliant ruin
#

thats

ruby heart
#

So flame dragon being the nefarious medieval dragon works well

pliant ruin
#

medieval dragon 101

spare pier
#

Fair enough, I just don't consider Yharon, Vetrasyl and Zeratros to be exactly super zany so I was like

#

Maybe we already covered enough generic dragon stuff

ruby heart
#

Vetrasyl is zany

#

Yharon too

#

Parrot dragon

pliant ruin
#

Yharon is pretty zany id say... The bird

#

Idk about vetra or zeratros since i havent seen them

spare pier
#

Idk Yharon still feels very much draconic to me

#

It's just that he has bird

pliant ruin
#

but the designs which idk if official which i've seen for vetra aren't as zany as yharon i don't think

ruby heart

Its a zany dragon

No idea what's going on with zeratros i hope he looks cool doe

I do hope death dragon isn't just a skeletal dragon because that's the most predictable possible path to take and i'd stab someone if it was that

Life, death, rebirth

Ok but

every other domain has a very clear reason why

it’s there

Primordial light, flame, frost, death, life, gluttony, storms, and probably some others I forgot maybe

Rebirth is just there

The domain of rebirth kept in being rebirthed when it faded away and coming back clueless

my headcanon

#

parts of the world soul could die

so rebirth brought them back

So it’s less so the normal creatures rebirthing but how the world soul would stay alive?

my problem with cal lore is that it still lacks much originality, but it still suffices nonetheless

Not really

i do wish it went with the feel of terraria though

Terraria lore is kinda

Not that existent

snow mountain

yeah but the game has a distinct feel to it

#

the way it handles stuff

#

cal lore is good lore but for the wrong game

#

imo

split mortar
#

Calamity doesn’t follow being terraria like so I don’t see why the lore has to be terraria like

snow mountain
#

its that disconnect that really irks me

split mortar
#

How would they make it more terraria like though

snow mountain
#

thats not really what i was getting at

split mortar

Then what were you getting at?

snow mountain

it feels almost embarrassed by being a mod for terraria

They’re making the base game fit somewhat more with calamity

this whole mod has been about shaping vanilla around itself since the start basically

snow mountain
#

it has always been the edgy terraria oc tbh

mighty zenith
#

it's moved from laughably edgy to just pretty cool edgy

split mortar
#

I don’t see that nowadays

random mulch
#

not always a bad thing to have a story that takes itself sorta seriously

mighty zenith
#

and it's not like calamity is devoid of funny shit

untold oracle
#

Haiii

mighty zenith
#

it's just not relevant shit

snow mountain
#

i guess it ties back to how it neglects the sandbox elements of terraria

mighty zenith
#

because the overall mood of the story is pretty grim

snow mountain
indigo glade
random mulch

draedon seeing the sulfurous sea, deciding that it's already fucked so might as well dump uranium and active warheads in

i'd argue cal lets you mess around like a sandbox MORE than vanilla

Terraria Lore isn't lighthearted it's just fucked hdflr

Wait so what are we discussing

for once

snow mountain
mighty zenith
#

clueless ** **

snow mountain
#

fair

spare pier
#

Terraria is not lighthearted, the difference between it and Calamity is that Calamity treats itself far more seriously

snow mountain
#

coming from me

split mortar
#

Yeah can we not escalate this

wheat walrus
#

terraria isn't lighthearted it's just not serious

untold oracle
#

I find Calamity to be a very grim setting

wheat walrus
#

simpol

snow mountain
wheat walrus
#

yea fair

snow mountain
#

its kinda overly grim, and thats okay

untold oracle
#

I have no idea if there is an argument going on

snow mountain
#

not really, id say that it nearly became one

split mortar

Yeah nearly escalated but luckily didn’t

ive got the tmod experience

i'm trying to be genuine here

No place for sincerity here!

wheat walrus
untold oracle

Sillies only!

cloud ibex
#

idc

snow mountain

so the most important point of what ive been saying is this; please god add lore that varies the tone a bit to a lighter one

#

its always gloom

cloud ibex
#

yea i think that's fair

untold oracle
split mortar
#

Yeah that’s fair

cloud ibex
#

the souls games are actually a good example of this

snow mountain
untold oracle
#

Braelor and Statis are silly roommates (basically couple)

split mortar
#

The cal npc dialogue overhaul may actually help this

snow mountain
#

yeah

spare pier
#

I think the Bestiary has a lot of silly shit but I digress

cloud ibex
#

every souls game is pretty much sopping wet with grim tone and bad shit happening and war and Existence Is A Living Hell and such

snow mountain
#

i do need to brush up on that actually

cloud ibex
#

but it is very much not free from silly things

#

like fuckin

split mortar

Like, just

#

There are silly stuff

cloud ibex
#

elden ring has an absolute titan of a man with an army of loyal soldiers willing to wage war in his honor

wheat walrus

#

moray eel entry is an obvious type of silly but there's more subtle ones like bloom slime

#

Nah

mighty zenith
#

bestiary is pretty varied and i like that, i think less important entries can get away with funny stuff

So silly :3

indigo glade

but he rides around on a dinky little stupid ass goofy horse and you read the item descriptions, and it turns out the horse is named Leonard and the dude learned gravity magic ENTIRELY so he wouldn't have to abandon his childhood pet

mighty zenith
#

what if i shot a jellyfish out of a mortar

indigo glade
snow mountain
#

monotone lore needs to be broken up a little more noticably than bestiary entries imo

cloud ibex
#

in sekiro you're an edgy badass feudal cyborg shinobi who can rise from the dead, and one of the bosses he fights is a giant monkey who shits in its own hand and throws it at him

snow mountain
#

chimp behaviour

mighty zenith
#

that is what monkeys tend to do

cloud ibex
#

part of what makes Souls games so great tonally is that all the serious shit is contrasted with occasional insanely silly moments

split mortar
#

The lore items won’t change all that much since it’s yharim talking and neither will draetalk

So 2 big sources would make not much sense to be silly :(

mighty zenith
#

metal gear is a series that takes itself very seriously while being the stupidest shit imaginable at the same time

snow mountain

#

I still think there are moments which are silly in retrospect like the fact that Plantera is Plantera

#

Or the fact that Yharim is racist

Yharim is racist?

completely forgot that

manic coral
mighty zenith
#

tbf yharim being racist isnt very shocking'

manic coral

kind of subtle yet not so subtle racism

maybe yharim is racist against lihzahrds because of their apprehension and distaste towards bees

it's terraria

it's inherintly a bit of a silly game

part of my personal issue with old lore is that it felt like it took itself way too seriously for being so connected to terraria

Will there be a lore mention of the notorious bunny statue lava slaughter machines

snow mountain

old lore was insufferable

#

that i agree with

fading helm

#

new stuff seems a lil generic in palces atm yeah though

Let me check the definition

split mortar
manic coral
#

i will say one of my favrotie things in media is "thing that seems generic at first but as you learn more about it becomes anything but"

though part of the issue with that is that

im gonna be honest

i kinda love scope creep

manic coral

also we're having to solve a fair amount of lag issues

as of now like a lot of enemeis and abse worldgen work but it's

#

unoptimized

fading helm

the people shall play with 1000ms

manic coral

and pretty laggy

sudden ruin
manic coral
#

like soemtimes the game just doesn't for about 3 seconds

snow mountain
#

understandable

manic coral
#

mostly due to pathfinding sheinanagains

fading helm
#

btw what is going to come first the crags or the distortion

dusk laurel

Crags

sudden ruin

crags

manic coral
#

crags

fading helm

ah alr

split mortar
#

Crags

manic coral
#

Sunken Sea > Crags > Distortion

after distortion there really isnt anything planned except yharim no?

manic coral

there are other things but they're a "maybe"

split mortar

#

and at this rate

#

probably not gonna happen

fading helm
#

F

manic coral
#

given that like

#

some of us just don't WANT to work on cal for that long

snow mountain
#

i do think stuff like superbosses shouldn't be hyped up so much

#

its inviting outrage

#

Retcon the wrath of gods addon as canon clueless

i mean its still a maybe but

manic coral

#

Tbh i wouldnt mind not facing them

snow mountain

poor terraria, bloated beyond its limits

some of us gotta step up and learn c# ….

fading helm
#

would like it if we could see them atleast tho

manic coral
#

imo those two ABSOLUTELY take priority over like. a profanded minibiome, more astral stuff, and somer overhauled abyss stuff

#

but also

#

i am a little biased

#

i jsut feel as though if they weren't there

spare pier
#

Sunken Sea was beyond all else a failure of management in the sense that the only thing that was actually set in stone for the majority of the update was the enemies. Just recently did I actually sit down and decide to write shit down

manic coral
#

the ending would be a lil bit

#

unsatisfying and empty?

#

like

snow mountain
#

i mean terraria does have a credits scrawl

manic coral

i do have an ending planned that i think is pretty damn good and i think i could havea fine one if it ended on yharim but

i dont think it'd be as good

oh true they aint guarranted

might actually ask redigit how they were implemented

it has?

in the same style as vanilla though

split mortar
#

Pretty sure yeah

snow mountain
#

right

fading helm
#

No way i didnt notice them

#

😭

spare pier
#

The main problem is just figuring out how the fuck to even articulate the credits because of how many people developed the Mod through time, how much stuff of theirs even is in the game right now, and all that stuff

snow mountain
#

fair

#

i need to remember that cal has had like at least

#

40+ contributors over its 8 years of development

indigo glade
#

40 is around the amount that are working on it now.

#

Lots of people have worked for Calamity.

split mortar
#

And also fan submits clueless

untold oracle

And also meeeee :3

untold oracle
#

I’m the most important

indigo glade
#

Contributors would increase it heavily.

snow mountain
#

god bless tomat for pushing for the mod to be open source

manic coral
#

yeah cal credits if it were to credit everybody who even contributed to the mod would be MASSIVE

#

and

#

to be honest, due to stuff like asset submissions beign to often is

#

is virtually impossible to keep track of

ruby heart
sudden ruin
#

i love biomes

ruby heart
#

calamity main issue rn is just how the game turn into a straight up boss rush later on

#

and adding noxus and xeroc without fixing that will only increase the issue

sudden ruin
#

i need more world

its bad even for storytelling

as everything is forced to be placed in walls of text as there is no exploration and stuff to tell the story

Ok but honestly?

ruby heart

principally post ml

and even work wise if im forced to work right after sunken sea on another mega biome like crags

#

i will explode myself

#

working on a smaller more self contained project is nice as a break

Imo if you want more lighthearted stuff, I say try writing lighthearted scenarios and stuff in the Calamity setting

I thought tit was

Timeless shores
Whatever replaces the normal sunken sea
Radiant reefs
Lava zone
(Not in height order)

there is 2 other fish mines

Look at the image Triangle sent of sprite progress. You see Timeless Shores at the top, Radiant Reefs, two that are combined with Radiant Reefs (2 of the unnamed) and the other unnamed is Lava Zone.

but the other is like

#

half done

abyss... abyss i preffer if its left for later

one day cal will have boids

its better than sunken sea and sulph sea so its not as urgent

one day

abyss sulph sea overhaul

the background just being walls is kinda meh and the enemies are a bit bland but generation-wise the abyss already looks really good

the acid rain stuff i was working on

same for sulph sea content

yey

i mean

abyss and sulphur also have a lot less content than sunken

(the sunken cost)

sudden ruin
#

yey

dusk laurel

Sunk cost fallacy

split mortar
ruby heart
#

enemy wise abyss wont get a sunken sea treatment

#

it will be more of a redesign and polish the guys

sudden ruin
#

i fucjing love polish

ruby heart
#

not adding new creatures (or well some but like 3 new max)

#

peepowegud sulphur sea is p much redesigning the 2 hardmode guys (killing their monopallete), 1 more guy to hm and then 2 new guys at post ml

dusk laurel
#

Not including the acid rain right?

#

Since that adds at least like 3 post-ml enemies

ruby heart
#

yea

sudden ruin
#

im interested in crabulonglegs

ruby heart
#

just base sulph sea

#

i learned a bit more about how to control the scope creep with sunken sea

so hopefully sulphur and acid rain wont be as janded
