spring helm
#

because that's the name of like 3 renowned blacksmiths and their swords are named after them as well

split mortar
#

Even then references to irl mythology is less wacky and jarring to people then games

untold oracle
#

If Calamitas is unable to perform ordinary spells how does she fly

#

Does she just add something to make the spell go overboard

light linden
#

iirc it's not that she can't do ordinary spells, it's just that she's prone to putting too much energy into them and blowing herself up

split mortar
#

She did cast cryogen afterall

been wondering

fierce pagoda
#

I've been wondering too!

light linden
#

who the hell could've made the void shrine?

fierce pagoda
#

Maybe Xeroc

#

made it himself

#

and put the artifact there

split mortar
#

jared clueless

though yeah maybe xeroc since iirc they put it there

#

And it’s fucking xeroc

The abyss ain’t going to crush them or anything

fierce pagoda
#

Nice of him to take the time to make the shrine look nice though

#

Could have just chucked the artifact in a crack in the bottom and hidden it, but no, he wanted a shrine to put it in

#

kind of like he wanted someone to find it again

split mortar
split mortar
untold oracle
#

I mean she must’ve been hella bored

light linden
#

I do not think the corpse can build

spring helm
untold oracle
fierce pagoda
#

Why doesn't he just keep it on himself, not like anyone is capable of ripping it off him or anything

#

Also why bother hiding it in the first place, its useless now

#

or maybe it wasn't when he hid it.

split mortar
#

Perhaps if some alien force could get it off him (like Noxus) it could do much more then just a prefect god ascension ritual

fierce pagoda
#

Another alternative would be to just destroy it

split mortar
#

We don’t know what the terminus is fully capable of

Could be just a ascension thing or something more

untold oracle
#

It’s the core of the sun fused into a rock

fierce pagoda
#

Perhaps it has ties to the world soul

split mortar
#

So idk if it’s good idea to consider it as confirmation but I’m pretty sure the profaned core being part of providences power thing is happening in sso

dusk laurel
#

This is like the 2nd time this has been confirmed in sugg discussion

split mortar
#

Oh lmao

dusk laurel
#

And there was a whole convo in cst too

split mortar
#

So it’s open that it’s the closest thing to being ingame

tropic oak
#

hey. which one of you LOSERS has the calamity scale doc

pliant ruin
#

there's a calamity scale doc?

#

crazy

tropic oak
#

yur

sinful adder
#

What's the deal with the clentaminator? Does it destroy godly essence? Or maybe split it off of the matter it's infecting and push it into the atmosphere?

pliant ruin
#

i mean it also affects other biomes that aren't infected

#

like

#

it can turn desert into snow ,,,

#

so i assume its idk

#

magic alchemy gun or smth

#

bla bla bla equivalent exchange bla bla fullmetal alchemist whtever

split mortar
#

Also it prob just pushes the god essence out

pliant ruin
#

i don't think it's exclusive to divine essence

#

it does far beyond just cleansing evil biomes

glacial rampart
#

alchemiter... homestuclk,,,

those who burn 🔥

tropic oak
#

those who calamitous

light linden
#

wait no nvm

pliant ruin
#

i can't recall anything ingame that would imply that

tropic oak
split mortar
pliant ruin
#

that's energy

#

not matter

split mortar
#

Doing nothing and getting energy doesn’t seem very equal

#

Isn’t energy and matter like, capable of being made into the other

pliant ruin
#

You can't turn sand into snow with energy alone as far as i'm concerned but i'm not a physicist so idfk

tropic oak
#

idk draedon can probably figure it out

wheat walrus
eager bluff
# eager bluff theoretically

i believe the theory is if you get something going the speed of light, because of Physics™️ it becomes energy

light linden
#

just realized something

#

y'all know climbing claws?

fierce pagoda
#

Are perpetual motion machines possible in calamity

light linden
#

considering how humanity was stuck underground for centuries, it's possible that a primitive version of them was very common

split mortar
#

They’re a common accessory

And spike shoes

split mortar
#

Idk if there’s other ways for perpetual energy

fierce pagoda
#

Void walls or sunken sea walls, they produce infinite water

#

but that's just gameplay, very certain of that

split mortar
#

Yeah same

light linden
#

actually

#

do we know how well sea prisms hold an edge?

split mortar
#

Probably decently? Isn’t there that enchanted sword rip off made of them

devout grotto
#

Hello lorers

#

Been busy lately so no yapping PensiveCore

split mortar
#

Pretty sure Rebecca’s night providence thing is confirmed

fierce pagoda
#

Kinda funny that we use sea prisms early on to make basic swords and weapons, not knowing that they hold infinite energy and have insane potential.

light linden
#

ehh

#

they require a lot of work to be good

fierce pagoda
#

Its like an in game plot twist, "what!? this early game material was the key to exo prisms!?"

light linden
#

they have a very weak charge normally according to draedon

pliant ruin

pliant ruin
frank dune
#

not playing any of games?

fierce pagoda
#

why would anyone do that

pliant ruin
#

bandwagons usually

deft vessel
#

Ngl Lobotomy corporation for a name makes the game sound like slopp

fierce pagoda
#

and besides, people can enjoy the story without playing the game i guess

pliant ruin
#

lobotomy corporation is hard

#

but its story is peak

#

just like every other project moon game

pliant ruin
#

because project moon games have fantastic narrative

frank dune
#

id say all pm games are hard in general

#

besides limbus

#

id say its pretty mid

pliant ruin
#

limbus is fairly easy in comparison yeah

frank dune
#

story is nice but gameplay is mid

pliant ruin
#

idk i like the gameplay

#

its not that hard but its fun

deft vessel
fierce pagoda
#

Is the game play like rpg maker

#

level

pliant ruin
#

no

frank dune
#

its just downgraded library of ruina

split mortar
#

Ruina having the most wack difficulty spikes I have seen

pliant ruin
#

it is p much simplified ruina yeah

#

they had to make do since its a mobile game too

#

but all things considered

frank dune
pliant ruin
#

for a ''simplified" ruina they still managed to cram alot of mechanic complexity in there

dusk laurel
# light linden what's project moon?

Thunder, just a thing I've noticed but, a lot of the questions you ask can be answered by a quick google search. Not trying to be rude, i'm just curious

frank dune

well i mean limbus has no ads

#

pliant ruin
#

i play limbus on steam

#

anyways

#

lore

fierce pagoda
#

If it originated on PC, and was ported over it doesn't count as a mobile game

frank dune
#

same

#

but i connected account to mobile so i can do daily stuff outside home

fierce pagoda
#

it has daily quests and stuff? what kind of games are project moon games?

indigo glade

limbus is the only one that involves real money tho

#

but like

fierce pagoda
pliant ruin
#

its so free it might aswell not be a gacha

fierce pagoda

ngl library was hardest for now

#

Moonlord lore in Sunken sea update part 1 soon🤤🤤🤤

pliant ruin
#

i have not paid for a gacha once hdflr

frank dune
#

melon knows.....

fierce pagoda
#

Its not about the money, its about the mechanics

pliant ruin
#

BURN THOSE WHO DARE TO CARE FOR ME,,,

fierce pagoda
#

and its also about the money actually

frank dune
#

its fun

#

and late game stuff tooo

pliant ruin
#

idk how having a gacha means the game mechanics r bad

#

u do know tf2 is a gacha right

frank dune
#

lor is uh

#

card game ig

indigo glade
pliant ruin
frank dune
#

i never played other card games

pliant ruin
#

lor is like

#

honestly basically its own genre

frank dune
#

so i cannot compare it to anything

pliant ruin
#

ive never seen any game like it

frank dune
#

strategy+card id say

#

you need to keep alot of stuff in mind

pliant ruin
# indigo glade "Luck = bad"

i think it's insane how much people hate on Literally Any Game for purely having any form of gacha on it when like

#

tf2 is one of the most beloved games of all time

#

and objectively speaking

frank dune
pliant ruin
#

its one of the first mainstream games to have implemented a gacha system ever XD

#

a paid gacha system, that is

frank dune
#

youre gonna get fucked in all places by mfs with 10000+ kills weapons

fierce pagoda
#

All the fifa games are gacha too lmao

indigo glade
frank dune
#

almost 3/5 matches have spymain which abuses knife hitboxes

pliant ruin
#

I'd argue

indigo glade
#

I cannot be bothered with getting items to create a playstyle I want when I'm not having fun with the tools I currently have.

pliant ruin
#

nah actually id say they're almost about even

fierce pagoda
#

Fifa has got to be like, the most popular gacha game, at least in the west

frank dune
#

but about matchmaking

pliant ruin
#

was gonna say i think tf2 is more p2w than limbus but

fierce pagoda
#

or any other sports game with card pulling mechanics

pliant ruin
#

u can get good in both games without spending any money

#

but i think tf2 is a littleee more

#

neither games are rly p2w mind you

fierce pagoda
#

The reason i dislike gacha games mostly is due to them being grindy in nature

pliant ruin
#

they're both like

fierce pagoda
#

and i hate grinding too much

frank dune
#

came back after a year only week ago

fierce pagoda
#

not greedy

frank dune
#

maximum playin 1-2 hours

fierce pagoda
#

Grind

pliant ruin
#

limbus is a little grindy but not that much

frank dune
#

even got waw gregor ego on first pull

#

luck was on my side ig

pliant ruin
#

waw gregor?

#

garden of thorns? XD

#

the worst waw ego in the game 😭

fierce pagoda
#

Idk how to proparly explain it, i just like it when i can do whatever/progress when i want to, whenever i want to, without being limited and having to wait for something arbitrary

#

i feel as if most mobile games and gacha games do that

frank dune
pliant ruin
#

sorry for your loss

#

it sucks so bad but atleast gregor looks nice on it

frank dune
#

ig faust ego from pass i got yesterday

#

but i have no good faust ids soooo

pliant ruin
#

i have the funny gun gregor ego

#

fav ego in the game

indigo glade

you guys start

dusk laurel

idk what idk about cal mod lore

fierce pagoda
#

Dragon Ball Daima is expanding the DB lore

indigo glade
fierce pagoda
#

I've been wondering about that too

frank dune
#

metal gear rising

fierce pagoda
#

I always humorously chalked it up to you killing his slimes

#

and made him angry

deft vessel
#

It’s because you killed a slime

fierce pagoda
#

But really I have no clue

#

must have been something we did during gameplay

#

any idea to what we did? (other than killing slimes)

dusk laurel
#

Maybe it's related to Statis

fierce pagoda
#

All this speculation, only for the devs to just remove the despawn message

dusk laurel
#

I'm searing you

frank dune
#

sorry, i am immune to all status effect debuffs.

dusk laurel
#

That isn't a status effect, so you're dead

frank dune
#

i am immunte to all damage too

dusk laurel
#

Then you're fake

frank dune
#

nuh uh

#

just a barrier which blocks all dmg

#

They're "immunte" to all damage, not Immune so they're dead

"wait a minute... I only play games I actually like! Haha, heh.."

Honestly tho I was never into the gacha in gacha games

#

I only really cared for the story

#

And it's good when you can clear content with characters you have built

light linden
#

random thing

#

do we know anything about azafure's founding?

pliant ruin
#

don't think so

manic coral
#

you know i realized recently that permafrost is a great person to have talk about other parts of the world you'll never get to see in-game due to being on other continents

wheat walrus
cosmic zenith
#

I also want to write Traveling Merchant dialogue regarding that

manic coral
#

yeah i asusme you saw me talking about this stuff in lore disc on dev

pliant ruin
#

lore

manic coral
#

just generally tlaking about maybe what could be donme for worldbuilding for palces outside of the in-game worldspace

pliant ruin
#

good thing u guys r doing that

#

because otherwise you might get a beastars situation 😭

#

(there is 0 indication of there being any sort of world beyond the city the story takes place in and events in that specific city are treated as worldwide events...)

manic coral
#

yeah i've been looking for excuses to tlak about other places in the world for a while

#

it's just something that's sometimes hard to find an actual place to talk about

#

i wanna have Permafrost, the Bandit, and Calamitas talk about that sorta stuff a bit

#

Calamitas being the one character who has been off-continent during much the time the game takes place so being a very good person to ask about stuff like

#

actually learning vaugely up-to-date information about how stuff in the world is going as of the time the game is taking palces

pliant ruin
#

bandit relevance yaay

manic coral
#

yeah i want the bandit to be the first person you come across who actually properly kinda talks about stuff going on elsewhere in the world

cei did the dragons celebrate christmas and exclaim with holiday cheer

Jesus is god and dragons don't like gods

#

So no the dragons would be quite unjolly

cosmic zenith
#

I plan to give those Critter Contest Azure Envoys actual messages (sometimes) you can collect

#

And they'd operate on a list-based entry system, like Rain World's blank pearls

#

So you'd be able to read what the Chrysonai have been up to

#

The territory surrounding Chrysadia

#

Weaver's whereabouts/movements

#

And so on

#

It'll be fun to write for

dusk laurel
#

Wait that's so based

#

Messenger birds

cosmic zenith
#

Yeah!

#

I'm really thankful to that submission

#

Rain World blank pearls are so underrated because they have randomized text

#

But they have really awesome lore drops

#

Like ||Subterranean construction workers getting "restless nights filled with disturbing dreams, where millions glowing starsmove menacingly in the distance" (dreams of the void)||

#

Or ||Citadel denizens being really fucking pissed off that Pebbles was being built above their holy temple||

surreal gulch
#

Reminds me of that one game called Battle Cats where you can send a cat on a journey and it gives you randomized messages about like obeying traffic laws or just some random stuff. But I love that idea it sounds so cool.

#

maybe you can put modifications or something kind of like the code breaker upgrades so you can get even more knowledge about the world around you.

the loot bags are actually a clever visual metaphor for treasure

Wouldn't make much sense for Draedon to just stockpile a bunch of weapons around :p

and calling it "the main continent" doesnt feel right because that makes it sound like that where the game takes place is The Only Place Anything Ever Happens

which is something i wish to avoid

So I doubt that a normal army is anywhere near near Cosmolite tier yes?

Not I main

I still have a lot of worldbuilding to cover but I have the navy and coastal defence use cosmilite-tier equipment :P

you'd have to kill a god

I was just wondering, since it did feel possible for there to be a huge gap from second strongest to strongest

wonder who the strongest godseeker knight was (not yharim, he's just the godseeker)

obviously the strongest godseeker knight is yharim

but like

A second in command or strength of sorts?

manic coral

honestly i havent thouhg too much abotu specifically other godseeker knights aside from one

or well

two

Byeah I just think it'd be kinda awkward to have a massive power vacuum in Yharim's army between Godseeker Knights and DoG, plus it's just natural that there'd be a few individuals who were capable of fighting Gods like Providence

manic coral
#

and the second might never see the light of day

is defeating queen slime ever gonna feel like something? it seems quite anticlimactic that there is no aftermath
or is it just because its quite weak and just leeching off the hallow at that point?
