Why almost every famous person nowadays is a didler

Is design gonna be changed or just lore and stuff?
yes
design will be changed
Ooo cool
Idk if I missed the answer to this but. so lunatic cultist prevents the pillars appearing but how? and do we know why destroying the pillars spawn in the moonlord?
we dont know but ML controls the pillars
Ahh
Also like what happened to its legs ans stuff? Because isn’t it only chest head and arms?
ML is weakened so you can see the physical toll it took
from the fight with the auric dragons
Who is the auric dragons is it an enemy or not in game?
the auric dragons are dragons who gained auric souls long ago, these souls grant them the ability to control certain things, like fire, gluttony, or even life
yharon for example is one
who is at the higher end of strength
Second strongest ever
So they have like special skills or elements?
They have domains like the gods do
Ooo
Of all the auric dragons or in general?
Moon lord is the 2nd strongest right?
In their prime yeah
So it’s the strongest in the universe..?
Ye
Only below xeroc
Zeratros is basically even to yharim
Isnt Moonlord also weaker than the terrarian, or at least will be
yeah
Said by 1 writer
oh alright
Where would scal be or the elementals?
Would be cool though
But thats like
Once we face xeroc
Scal is like
6th strongest?
Elementals vary in power
Is it fightable in an add on or nowhere
Tied with exos
Xeroc would be in base cal not an addon
I was abt to ask that
Is Primordial wyrm ever getting Tier shifted?
Maybe
or will he remain that strong
Rn its post scal tho
cuz like, Silva blessed it right, which means silva also has to be crazy strong too
she is..kinda
Xeroc
Prime moonlord
Noxus
Yharim/zeratros
jared
scal/exos
like she doesn't have too much power damage wise
Silva is currently drowning
When we fight moonlord where would it be?
but when paired with someone else she is strong af iirc
Not even top 10
Top 20?
Probably
We finish off the like
Last 1% the dragons couldnt
What about dog and the plague boss I forgot name
before though
They also had a drowning incident before that
pbg is even lower than current ml
Dog is uh
Prob top 10
Is that the dryad or is that someone else?
Silva is a dryad but not the dryad npc
No
or did she bless it so hard it became even stronger than herself
Scal is beyond all gods but xeroc
Yeah the first dryad? I think that’s what someone said?
horton hears a who universe vs xeroc
Yuh
why does it say youre new!?
probably
wyrm was probably already pretty strong
and blessing turbo busted it
based
fapcel
awesome sauce
But if its being tier shifted maybe
Game progression is a good indicator of a bosses strength
then it will be easier to swallow
In relation to others
Lark
guy in white suit beats roc
Hey wait actually
Oh wait I was thinking pbg is post ml
Probably like half of my warnings were from talking shit about fabsol. Now that this is acceptable, can those warnings be removed?
plague bringer Goliath🤢
who warned you for talking shit about fabsol...
What’s fabsol?
The creator of the mod
They've been kicked out
Oh
What's that? Whats a fabsol? haha 😐 😐
was it against the rules to make fun of fabsol or something
are administrators immune to being shit talked
Probably was
I remember people calling out his freaky banner and got silenced by the mods
Annoyingly, yes!
i love this chat
no but you arent inmune to be a victim of power abuse
Anyways I've been here for almost a decade and accumulated, what, 8 warnings?
its so normal
😔
Im here so nuh uh autism
I said things along the lines of "fabsol is a piece of shit and the 22 were right"
Its late i should sleep i also have headache and hurty eyes
and thats not like critique or anything thats just being an ass
oh no, get well soon!
Im not ill
No that's the thing. We did. We just didn't know the full extent of that derangement
go eep melon gun
Most of us didn't
They've always been tyrannical
still, get well from the headache and hurty eyes!
Among other things
That's on you then?
Tyrannical? Jungle tyrant Yharim?
no not really
Exactly
we had literally no way to know guy was a right-leaning centrist pedophile
Yharim was the self insert all along
and if anyone else did they sure didn't Say Anything about it
all we knew was that he was a creep
i just knew guy was kind of abrasive
i can't believe cmt and lore are talking about fabsol... :(
I wonder if there’s a mod that lets us fight prime ml
a bit weird yeah
unfortunately
No I mean they did a lot of reprehensible shit unrelated to that, which led to the whole 22 incident among other things
Not really but maybe someone will make an addon or something
Moonlord code is fucking aids i hear
terraria code in general is a spaghetti hell torture

Wdym?
Yharim was A racist, a groomed a child and has a lack of accountability
literally fabsol
TRUE


The code for moonlords segments and animations is prob fragile and easily broken
we thought drunk princess was the self insert but it was yharim all along
Isn’t it a dragon?
Oh oopsie
in pins
loreres, get em
google dockey
Ooh I didn’t know that was a thing that probably would’ve answered a bunch of my questions sorry!
no worries
Itsfine
Its okay, we love answering
Im killing cheese for insubordination anyways it doesnt matter
I remember seeing a moon lord rework mod a while back that looked cool
what!?
Cheese dead
Read to the tune of chicken jockey
Moonlord resprite coming in 1.4.5😈
Deleting your account with acid
But you see my account is very basic
woah...
Water and technology are a well known pair
that was lowkey an awesome response
Anyways do you think Cal verse has modern airplanes they use to travel, or do they use those giant boats with air balloons on them
these things that appear in the background sometimes
fabsolian boss dynamics
That makes me thing about the flying dutchman and how it flies
pirate magic
Yarrgh!!...
So crimson/corruption = god that died there and wasn’t disposed or destroyed properly? But do we know how to do it properly? And what about hallow would it be similar to evil biomes?
I find you unfit to rule
hallow is from the benevolent gods slain by yharim which he intentionally doesn't talk about so he can push his narrative that all gods are irredeemable monsters
and to prevent the mires, you can either contain the essence or "destroy" it

how would you contain or destroy it?
you could build a giant wall of magic to seal it away, a wall made of flesh, or you could hire a monster to consume the essence and presumably destroy it

Very important question: does Yharim like his Cheetos puffy or crunchy
i do not believe cheetos were invented
If they were
Spicy
i think lime
dev







devourer of gods gods
was dog created or kinda just there chilling?
we dunno
maybe
all we know is that he is a pawn for a greater being
far stronger than anything we know
probably got hired one day
(and NO, it is NOT Noxus)
i don't remember any evidence to suggest otherwise
I also dont remember any evidence suggesting that Noxus is the being in the Distortion (although it is a logical conclusion)
I think all evidence points to it being noxus
there's no 100% it's noxus!
But it's more 85% it's noxus!
DoG work for yharim actuaty
(not really)
What exactly is the advantage of arsenal weapons? I know they're supposed to be technologically superior, but they don't seem all that superior ingame.
thats because theyre mechanically old and dated since they were added like 3 or 4 years ago
The evidence is that the devs said so
I'm not asking for evidence, I'm asking what the advantage is and how that advantage works
I wasn’t referring to your message
Also the advantage is that they’re good weapons (optional)
dude istg I hear every game's code is spaghetti
like literally every game I hear about the code
and everyone says every game has shit code
maybe code is just hard to read
terraria is a unique case
explain to me why its unique
it's worse than almost every other game by a substantially wide margin
That doesn't say anything. How is it worse? In what ways is it worse?
is it coded worse than something like undertale
no, undertale is worse
what about java minecraft
almost definitely better than terraria
all I know for sure about java minecraft is that every single mod and mod launcher has to update for every single new game version and that doing so is a pain
which is kinda the same as terraria so
even like tiny version changes
monthly tmod update 🔥
I mean terraria was coded over 10 years ago
go figure
wheres that one image
with the moonlord code
fuckkk it was in ccc i left
undertale code is held together by glue and sticks
and a dream
i think noxus may have jumbled up the lego pieces on this one
Determination
how the hell did they put a 3d boss in this game
At least undertale code functions
Wanna see awful code
Garten of banban
or yandere simulator
oh fuck
the games cant even run right
At least undertale manages to run good despite being help with scotch tape and determination
wait the 3d boss was lucille?
should have guessed I suppose
I didn't ever hear anything about it so I assumed it was some other subsect of the tmod community that made it
Which boss was the 3D one again?
Where is it?
I mean where did you see the trailer?
how it feels to know how to open youtube and search up "3d terraria boss" (I'm basically god)
flayer icon is a badass name though
sounds like a jaeger from pacific rim
So we got a boss rhat makes terraria 3d, now we need a boss that makes Minecraft 2d for the balance to be maintained
Damn that boss is crazy
Huh? I was kicked
Uh oh
Idk I think I accidentally logged out while doing something in the patreon stuff
Hey guys
👁️
I think I just finished writing one of the 4 pearls we have scheduled for SSO
I think you know about the pearls already?
is it the flashback things
Yeah
very awesome
the pearls were in patreon
They're pretty basic but I'm doing my best to make the dialogue in them really good
hope it goes well
It's been going along nicely
Hdhchhshfbs
Not at all
Do tell (if you are allowed to)

Essentially
They're pearls you can acquire ingame through specific things
And they all go over a set of dialogue between two characters
I would show you the names for the four I'm writing for Part 1
But they're painfully obvious and also I want to leave one as a surprise
Pog
Well I'm going to show you the name of the one I just finished writing
The Royal Blue Whispering Pearl

Mayhaps this has to do with our ninja friend 🤔
this is certainly royal
peak?
we need to get game theory on this
I'm really fucking excited for these pearls to come out because I think they're just super fucking cool
.
Pearlto
Yes, Amidias has a whale daughter actually you'll get to meet her in SSO
Her name is Trident
yes!
ooh cool
Rebecca's reaction when I turn them into a lightly carbonated drink
Write that down!!!
no way
is she dead
What would Otonilou have been like to meet
Zappy zappy
:3
Guh
Which calamity character would like a hug the most
i hate all of you
Beat me too it
⏲️
Permafrost it has to be
And from here i can say amidias have bad naming sense
Though actually
cause I headcanon that she'd be like a more social goddess and just generally a nice person
Maybe braelor 🤔
Draedon or yharim
The calamity timeline if someone gave providence a hug (good ending)
Either that or she calls you a pervert and you end up in jail

jesus I need to check the server announcements more often
When you stare at the changelogs and the changelogs stare back
Turned to stone by medusa
Your body contains a skeleton. Think about all those bones in your flesh. Can you feel them?
Hydrogen bomb
Dron
Can you?
I killed day time empress of light
Occasionally
can you count them
I did it in radiance
When I smash my limbs into something on accident I can
No
cooler
Supreme Permafrost

What does this mean for lore 
can't believe this is the only permafrost emote
ice elemental
We’re gonna get the father daughter duo with permafrost and calamitas trust
As boss right
Permafrost solos the verse trust
This must be perma
Instead of alchemist
Is Doofenshmirtz a good dad
Probably
What
Is prof Doofenshmirtz a good dad
Yes
Why
it could be either permafrost or Amidas
he also blue
It is the will of dron
and hes royal
Lmao
see I have the approximate intelligence of a four year old on steroids
You’re so me
No u don't my good man
I always forget about amidias so I thought it was king slime for a minute 


Do u mean stewie
idk who dat is
Stewie griffin
I still don't know who that is
From family guy
I have never watched family guy
The little baby with oval head
U missed a lot
i've missed a lot of brain development my friend
Oh dw that one is a brain rot
Brain development with an emphasis on "de"
brain unvelopment
Brain degeneration
decay, even
I'm starting to build a DND setting and now have discovered the pain of writing all this out
Xerocs the like
Strongest thing possible in calamity
Or atleast getting close to it iirc
yeah pretty much
ok but what about paper airplanes
We wont kill xeroc so guess what
That wont kill them
-# plus the fight will be in the context if a spar or something where xeroc is holding back from using some unfair instakill stuff iirc
yeh
Yeah, I mean
Fovos or Noxus would probably be the closest in giving Xer a run for his money
In Fovos’ case Xeroc would I guess need to sweat and bleed to win, which is to say yea he wins
Rebecca has said they see the fovos vs xeroc fight like kaido vs luffy
Kaido lasts a while and gets good hits in but like
Still has no chance of really winning
-# and noxus stands less of a chance
Sun God
What does Xeroc look like currently? Is the eye more of a symbolic thing or is that literally him
We dunno their post ascension look, only pre ascension
You would have to join the patreon for that i think
Lmao
this is what happens if you summon draedon at the wrong moment
Wait did Xeroc steal Zeratros's soul in the new lore as well?
yeah
For some reason I though he willingly gave it to him
Damn
Where did that come from
He might've
we dont know
Yharim & Yharon think he slayed Zeratros for it
But theyre the most biased people ever
Oh, I see
But it's been implied it might've been more co-operative
Dont think zeratros is a old lore character
Oh right, I don't know the old lore XD
Real, Yharim probably doesn't know anything besides slaying others
Yharims source is yharon and yharon wasnt fucking there to know what happened
Lmao
I think I heard somewhere that Xeroc said he would take care of his soul after his death, and for his loyalty Zeratros gave his soul to him
Wasn't he about to die anyways?
As said by yharim yes, forever
Then it might've indeed been more co-operative
And that kinda breaks yharims point of it being a bad thing since the fucker was gonna be dead anyways
But just so we're clear, we don't know for sure, right?
We dont know for sure
Alright
-# tho xeroc was attuned to zeratros so they were like as close as yharim and yharon-
Idk
It's been ages since I read the lore doc
Barack obama
why didnt fovos just parry? is he stupid?
He parried with his legs
The pillars were being annoying and giving bad advice mid fight throwing ml off their rhythm
true
why didnt ml just put his legs back in place
wouldnt this bird be cool if it was photoshopped to be like yharon
loreful
Someone would prolly make that
If ir wasnt for lore reasons
Would it be better if the abyss and sulphurous seas were in seperate oceans
ehh
sulphurous sea would suffer from vanilla ocean syndrome of being small and rather devoid of content
The regular ocean feels even more empty in the mod
the abyss gives it more depth
Huh
pun not originally intended
no it can just remain like the sulphurous sea
And have this one deeper pool to itaelf
It still has acid rain
honestly, the sulphurous sea housing the abyss makes it easier to integrate vanilla potentially reworking the ocean biome
or even other mods doing the same, like thorium
theyre pretty buggy from what ive heard
True
Can be adaptable either way tho probably
theres also no real reason to move the abyss
Aquatic depths fpr example could house the pre abyss pit
Aww
idk why you asked this in the lore chat but completely ignoring the lore side of things and the cool things the sulphur sea biome has
idk why it exists
like, at a base level
the abyss couldve definitely worked perfectly fine as just a underground ocean of sorts
not that i'm saying sulphur sea should be removed or anything i think it has alot of cool content and earned its place in the mod
but yeah like why in the lore chat 😭
-# how could silva be dropped in if not a surface hole
completely ignoring the lore side of things
Calamity fan reading comprehension my bad
I'm pretty sure the Sulphur Sea exists partially because of toxic fumes and stuff thay rose up from Azafure through the Abyss and partially because it was Draedon's nuclear dumping ground
RESURRECTION!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Yooooo
So given he's the Dragon of Rebirth, is every time you fight Yharon canon?
no
no, it takes yharon 10 years to show up as an egg
the only explicitly canon refight is scal
(there's a handful of others where refights could work but for the most part they're not
There are probably more QB's
Yeah cause as proven by Plaugebringer Goliath... existing, & most world gens, there would canonically be multiple hives & thus Queen Bees
Especially given the larva spawning multiple times
Maybe crabulons
Or any other beast boss
Same could potentially be applied to World Evil 1 & Eye Of Cthulu
I feel like it's pretty implied in the lore item that the Crabulon we fight is a singular crab who died escaping Illmeris during it's grilling
yeah
its special
sure, other members of its species survived
but not all of them escaped
let alone bloated to be a gargantuan crab
I will make multiple crabulons you can't stop me
If you put dead crabs in a mushroom biome you're just gonna get the generic enemy
you need to get a special, presumably now extinct illmeris crab
its not extinct
Hermititan
they will be found in the sunken sea
Oh I assumed the species name was simply a fun lore drop
nah they will be real
its awesome
anyways, did you know we have dev-made art based on the gleaming burrows
I think i missed that one
its one of the sunken subbiomes
(no this will not be ingame)
(the art wont, not the biome itself)
I just realized, the crap probably moved to the mushroom biome cause it has lots of water
puh
byeah gods are not the strongest things ever
so humans can often match them in strength
also provi is still ridiculously strong even if she didnt underestimate us
Providence would normally never put herself in a position to be killed, she favors hit and run tactics
but she didnt think wed be able to kill her
and it was too late when she realized we could
is what it seems like
I still love the fact we basically looked at an ore that electrocutes us when we touch it and fragments of a dragon’s soul, and thought “What if I put them together?”
tbf i think Amidas gives us the idea
A bit off topic, but how powerful would the Terrarian be had they gone super duper evil and ate Yharon's soul?
depends
stronger than yharim
probably
+5% attack & +3% movement speed
ggg user i will cook you in a vat of oil
honestly if we did that i thik wed be strong enough that Xeroc would just kil us and be done with it
i think wed be strong enough for him to care
he doesnt even care rn ?
"Auric is near impossible to work with without being attuned to a Dragon or using the claimed soul of a Dragon to perform a "mock" attunement. However, if one can work with it truly powerful things can be created; enough so that using it in anything was deemed heretical by the Gods."
but even an ant becomes a concern if they start building thermonuclear weopons.
This is sea king’s only dialogue about auric
Honestly a lot of the Terrarian's power seems to stem from their abuility to create equipment. I wonder if that's why Draedon paid us so much attention.
We heard the words “Dragons soul”, looked at the fragments we collected, and thought, “this is a terrible idea but I’m doing it anyway.”
Draedon's problem is he doesn't have the combat skill to go with his engineering.
he probably does
The best part is he actually has to use that name because we’re the ones who stabilized it, so we have the right to name it
Is that really what you have chosen to name it? How nonsensical. There is nothing miraculous about what you hold in your hands; it is the culmination of decades of research and a testament to the truly unlimited potential of science. Though, as you were the one to be able to stabilize it, I will begrudgingly refer to it as that.
love this
hes mr know it all
maybe he was just underestimating us
he defintely wasnt
He though he had an exact estimate of our power
if he was underestimating us he wouldnt have sent a hologram
And don’t forget the dialogue about the mech bosses
he planned for the exo mechs losing
so he has something more powerful cooking then ?
Draedon is also another person we will just never kill becuase hes too smart to die
or he just don't care
i kinda doubt it? but maybe at some point in the future hed try again
The "Mechanical Trio", as most call them, are what you annoyingly refer to as The Destroyer, Retinazer & Spazmatism, and, though it pains me to call it this, "Skeletron Prime". While you may be an exceptional individual, I question your naming capabilities.
he doesnt really need it
he’s just there to study lol
he probably doesnt want to risk giving us a reason to scour the world for the real him
yea
he wants to keep researching it
Are we canonically bad at naming things in the Lore of Calamity
i mean he is immortal right ?
kinda
Because that would be hilarious
if you killed the real him and all his backups hed probably die, and since the terrarian has surpassed every challenge laid before it previously
would YOU risk it
yeah
Really? He kinda gets pissy when you last long enough.
he said he can unmake all life on terraria if he wanted to
both things can be true
when did he said that
We’re just canonically bad at naming things
read the lore doc
miracle matter is cool tho
yea ok lmao
So can I, with enough dynamite.
have to plan vacations to read it all
just draedons section
aight
Calamity is less about the world building and more a commentary of the fact that the terrarian sucks at naming things
Draedon hates it tho. He has to use the name because we managed to stabilize it
Pretty much
If he didn't like the name he shouldn't have relied on our superior skills.
"Regardless, if I deem it necessary, I possess the means to simply rebuild the Sulphur Sea from the bedrock up. Restoring it to its pristine status would be a trivial matter and a testament to science's creative potential."
everyone talks about killing draedon but this like makes me headcanon that we could make Draedon into a good guy by agreeing to let him test new exo mech models against us lol
We become his testing dummy because we, much like Yharon, refuse to fucking die
If he has to be given an agreement to do a trivial good thing, he's not become a "good guy" he's just working for someone else who is good.
He just wants to create powerful things to break the ceiling of science.
He's Terraria Cave Johnson?
Sloghtly
sure, but thats what i meant
a force for good
there
I think he’d enjoy having a nigh-immortal test dummy
eventually draedon devolves into a youtube commenter on a terraria challenge video
"ok now do it with the wand of sparking"
"I wish to see your potential"
The best part is we could probably do it
I'm you, terrarian.
i have but 1 question about the lore:
- why did yharim start his god massacre war? was it due to the fact gods have committed a sin by consuming auric souls and controlling the weak, or did it have to do with the gods wanting yharim to consume yharon's auric soul and become a god king?
both probably
both
he primarily points to all gods being sinners because they've killed a dragon but a large part of his worldview was most definitely formed from the fact that he refused to do what some gods wanted him to do and was sentenced to death for it
so he hated the gods for breaking the cycle of dragons by consuming their souls, and the catalyst to the war waged was them destining him to execution
something like that yes
sick
Hey anyone know if Greek myth exists in the Calamity universe?
well, technically nothing says they dont
stop using my brain
let ur imagination run it wild
chees
i mean yeah
what the fu

nevermind, i just cannot read, draedon's communications say the crusade began with yharon's rebirth
more specifically, yharon told yharim about how the gods killed his kind
that's what started it
yes, i read that
Your brain tricks you into thinking
this is your brain on thinking
he never was a bad guy
yeah thats wrong
bad, not evil
Draedon is an amoral being
Morally gray
it doesnt matter if hes just cold and calculating, being evil is a matter of your actions
Draedon is a peak character.
Hes defintely not that either
someone can do terrible things without seeing them as terrible
Draedon has no border or restriction
in fact thats very common
HE'S LITERALLY BONDREWD MAN
Alright. Is a cat evil for playing with its food?
"yeah i just casually reconstructed the whole jungle into infectous and aggresive beings what could possibly go wrong"
You have a different definition of evil than I do
He just does whatever he feels like
only bad thing i remember him doing is making the plague bringers
If it was to get to that level draedon would activate the kill switch
Because he has the intelligence, time and resources to do so
but i may just be blind
Draedon is not capable of caring about morality innately
Draedons only ever goal is science, if it benefits science progression draedon does it if not then they dont
Gorthus
literally bondrewd
I dont know if i buy this because he gets annoyed and things like that
Idk who that is
so i dont know if i believe him
without the child experimentation, scratch that actually
for the best
Lacking morality not equal lacking emotion
You know that was Yharim's fault right?
Morality isnt emotions
emotion is the basis or morality, so if he lacks morality and not emotion thats not because of a limitation that stops him
?
We dont know what he would've done if the Plauge wasnt released early with the Goliath but it certainly wouldn't've spread freely
I find you unfit to rule
Yharim destroyed the containment of the Goliath & let it into the world
Either way, it doesnt really matter, we describe monsters in other fiction as "evil" even if they are mindless
Draedon is "evil" in the same way as a dragon that destroys towns
Arent dragons often sapient
if you buy thatwhat he says
Bad example Dragons are some of the most commonly sapient monsters
Nah not evil
its a slime
a slime monster is a slime monster
You dare assume slimes have no feelings?!?!?!
theres not even a brain
#SlimeLivesMatter
Honestly i could believe that a slime monster isnt evil if it needed to destroy to eat
Xeroc Tax
I dunno man that amorphous blob of digestive sludge looks sapient to me
If its not capable of morality then idk
Not evil
its not like draedon has to do his atrocities to live
that sounds like me
and id say im sapient
The reason is always science
To learn
so yea
no GOOD reason, man
everything is read so literally here
Doesnt autism affect taking stuff literally
In draedons mind it is the ultimate reason to do things
okay and hes wrong
by all useful definition of the word, Draedon is evil becuase he destroys for a reason that is not essential to his continued existence
Slimes do have enough thought to notice food as they do jump towards you and attack instead of just aimless jumping
he could do science for good!
Idk imo draedon is a destructive and unpleasent force
But not malicious or evil
Draedon is selfish by following his own idea of science
i wasnt talking about terraria slimes there
Draedon doesnt know what good is
just general fictional
And not being afraid of making reckless modifications
non destructive scienece
Aren't we all amorphous (without a defined form) blobs (conglomerations) of digestive (capable of breaking down matter into more basic components) sludge (a portion of matter combining solids, liquids and gases)?
That would impede some science and this draedon cant see it as worth while to do
Hes doing it for good. just not for the right people 
this is wrong becuase draedon has no one on his side anymore
hes a rogue element
Draedon just ultimately doesnt think like humans enough for understanding morality
I think you're half wrong here June. That's a good definition of evil and I mostly agree with it but I think that good and evil is ultimately a subjective thing we make up which benefits us.
That is sentience, not sapience; it is not equivalent to self-conscious thought
well he hasnt done much after leaving Yharim has he?
Yes I know what sapience vs sentience is XD
Good and evil are, in fact, subjective social constructs
he created machines of mass destruction
I was just pointing out that they are not mindless despite not having a brain
Draedon operates outside those concepts
Fortunately, most of us aren't faced with grueling moral dilemmas on a daily basis
And didnt use them on anyone but the terrarian
True
yet
oh he made the Exo mechs post leaving yharim?
i see
Well
What would mindless be?
He does not because he hurts others
when you bring others into what you do you are subject to their concepts of good and evil
Hurting others doesnt mean draedon considers it when acting
if u made a bomb but didnt blow anything up, you still made a bomb
Draedon cant even consider morality
an object whose sole purpose is destruction
I don't judge Draedon based on human morals because hes fundamentally just like, Not
but it depends on what the destruction is used on
His actions can be pretty terrible for those affected by them but i wouldnt call him evil
or good
or any moral allignment really
for an Alien Ai Robot Dreadon could have been much worse
he's not an alien
not alien
Draedon cant be a moral alignment because they cant be moral in any way
It can only be
Advances science or not?
Or atleast cant consider morality
and like it's not a matter of "well he isn't so bad" or "he can still do good"
I disagree, you dont choose your moral alignment most of the time
so hes an ai?
Its a completely foreign concept to their mind
its what other people view you as
Yes
its just that hes literally outside of the human moral scale
so draedon doesnt have to choose good or evil
yes
Just an ai
other people choose that for him
I think you misunderstand. He absolutely hurts others, but he doesn't do it for the sake of burying others. He just doesn't care. He lacks a sense of morality driving his actions. But we have different definitions of morals
it's not that he dosen't choose
ergo, hes evil
it's that he's like
literally not a moral being
a bomb is absolutely destructive and you could go into the semantics of it being metaphorically evil but objectively speaking the bomb literally Cannot be evil
Draedon is a different thing that isn't good or evil but can be treated as either given the situation
Yes thats what im saying, obviously draedon doesnt have like an evil ambition
hes evil in the manner thats what people view him as
becuase thats what matter
Imo draedon lacking the ability to comprehend or even feel any amount of morality is enough to make it not evil
when it comes to morality what matters is what other people think
not what you think
all the greatest villians think they are the hero
that doesnt mean they are
but that's literally not the case with draedon though
i mean
i wouldn't put it past someone affected by his actions to judge him as evil
other people DO think hes evil though
but also i wouldnt because again, bomb analogy
objectively speaking he literally cannot be evil or good
I dont consider a volcano evil despite the fact volcanos are deatructive as fuck
objectively speaking doesnt matter here though
Active ones might be evil
is dreadon a bad guy or evil
draedon is gender neutral
i agree
ok so it is in fact if draedon is evil it seems like
@fair token at this point i think its just differing views of morality, and so this convo will go on in circles forever
anyways yeah thats my final judgement
A volcano doesnt ponder the idea that it could use its power to improve the world rather than harm it
draedon DOES
can we turn calamitas into a lunchbox
Draedon is draedone with morality I think....
im not a draedon apologist because draedon has nothing to apologize for 🔥
Draedon is an ai it cant break its bounds of doing science
Le evil Machine man make nake machine to go boom
I don't think he's effectively actually thinking or pondering anything
Depends on what thinking is
Its dubious if draedon is even actually alive in calamity or not iirc
I'd argue not
Since astral cares not for the guy
i think this would be a great scientific advancement
if a machine does things we classify as evil according to its programming, then its evil by proxy of its creator making it that way, if thats the argument you want to use
Well i just outright disagree but to each their own
the creator is evil, but the machine isn't evil i don't think no
Its just doing what its code says, its a tool not a person
its a machine that cant change its ways though according to this argument, so its effectively just an extension of its creator
This convo will go in corcles
what can the machine do against its code
A hammer isnt evil because someone killed someone else with it
and does the machine even question its code
yeah this is just a different philosophies issue
a hammer isnt autonous or "living"
for something to be evil it needs to be able to know good
This convo cant convince either party
not really equivalent
he's fucking bondrewd man
i can se eit
he's literally just bondrewd
whats that
utter peak
yeah hes prettyt fucked
Its just different philosophies you aint convincing us we aint convincing you
Somebody ask Ai on this matter
This convo is just
Nothingburger at this point
@grok what do you think about this
grok
Cheese stfu

Fair

Rust Duramboros:

Draedon (sometimes misspelled as Dreadon) from the Terraria Calamity Mod is not traditionally “evil” in the typical good vs. evil sense—but he is a morally ambiguous character with clear antagonistic tendencies.
Key Points About Draedon:
Role: Draedon is a major antagonist in the Calamity Mod. He is the mastermind behind many of the powerful mechanical bosses (Exo Mechs) and created much of the Calamity universe's advanced technology.
Motivations: Rather than being motivated by malice or cruelty, Draedon is obsessed with science, innovation, and technological advancement. He often disregards ethics or the consequences of his creations in pursuit of knowledge and perfection.
Morality: Draedon's moral alignment would best be described as neutral or pragmatic, leaning toward neutral evil by D&D standards. He prioritizes science over lives and shows little regard for the chaos his inventions cause.
Narrative Function: In the story, he serves as a formidable obstacle for the player. His creations, especially the Exo Mechs, are among the most powerful foes in the game.
In Summary:
Draedon is not evil in a sadistic or villainous way, but his indifference to destruction and obsession with advancement make him a morally questionable character. He represents the classic “mad scientist” archetype—more dangerous because of ambition than intent.
i think slime god will be kind of an asshole... like not outright evil but also not Good either
