So for that one gate I'm going to cheat when playing with friends. Use settings to unlock it. No other gates but that one in particular

sudden jackal
#

It's just bad game design

#

The hard ones should be 1 karma

#

Same with farm arrays.

lament blade
#

It's the cannon route

#

So stupid...

sudden jackal
#

But you got a popcorn plant
Edit: and farm arrays to sub gate only takes 3 karma

lament blade
#

I get Shoreline to Subterranean being level five, it's a shortcut and optional. But the main path after thr hell called Underhang? WHY?

night lily
#

I stopped playing for almost like a year then came back to play a series of modded regions( Sunlit Trails)

That was fun, RW is one of those games that can make you nervous no matter how much you're accustomed to it

lament blade

Anyway, can't find thr "nightmare" pearl right now so I'll go fishing later (might not exist but fairly sure it does)

sudden jackal

I had gates off in invs campaign and that's like the only time I've ever used that gate

#

Besides my original playthrough

Out of curiosity, does anyone else mix up 3 and 4 based on image alone? They are very similar

And by original I mean like my 4th but 1st success

Continuation of the dream could be a good point in writing

sudden jackal
#

Man I kinda want to take a nap. Too bad my eyes feel like sleeping and feel like not sleeping anytime I try to do either

austere hawk
#

Lots of ways to write waking up, some stuff you could describe:

Blinking awake, eyes adjusting, morning light, yawns and stretches. Maybe rolls back over, not ready to get up. If they’re with someone else, snuggling up to them? Waking them up?

#

No birdsong in RW seemingly, maybe mornings are especially quiet, as everything has hidden from the rain?

#

Everything damp and dripping. Mornings are sparkly and the air is thick and humid

trim tartan
#

Sounds unpleasant.

sudden jackal
#

The pitter patter of the rain lulled them to sleep last time but now upon awaking it's just annoying them

austere hawk
#

Rolls over, covers ears

#

Tries to ignore the rain. Wants more sleep.

austere hawk
#

Being kinda half-awake, slipping back into dream

scenic escarp
#

With that, I meant more like "you were fighting someone in dream, then immediately punched the wall as hard as you could while waking" slagony

#

But that's good too, I relate to it

sudden jackal
austere hawk
#

Ah!!

#

That’s fun too

#

Sometimes it’s fun to write someone startling awake, wrenching awake, still confused from the dream

#

Ofc!

Slept from 6:10 AM to 8:20 AM and somehow feel energetic

Sleeping for a very short amount of time feels good. But it's not healthy or smth.

The brain damageamageamageamage is great for writing hunterglee

austere hawk

Lemme give that a try

plucky zenith

Ohhh I gotchu

meager moat
plucky zenith
#

Put on a helmet or something to soften a blow, then throw your forehead directly into a wall or other hard surface (the goal is to change momentum quickly without knocking yourself out)

#

Then when you see the little lights swimming in your eyes and the sort of haze between your ears, you'll know you've done it :)

meager moat
#

(dont do this btw)

plucky zenith
#

Well, if you just knock yourself out, then you miss the peak concussion feelings

#

plus, if you're protected, you can basically concuss yourself repeatedly before you feel any pain at all, thus making it easier to do so hunterglee

#

my hockey helmet is excellent at that

austere hawk
plucky zenith
#

The helmet makes it possible to do it harder and repeatedly lizgreengaming

austere hawk
#

Maybe I used up all my brain dramage bonus already

plucky zenith
#

like how boxing gloves actually increase concussions

austere hawk
plucky zenith
#

It's true

#

bare knuckle fighting has fewer severe concussions

#

because people just get knocked out

#

but with gloves, it's possible to be concussed numerous times in a single fight, which is where compounding concussion damage (the good shit) sets in hunterglee

#

Thus, for optimal brain damaging, a helmet should be used

#

and it'll hurt less so you'll be less hesitant

#

Would the water be hot? In Rainworld I mean

meager moat
#

no

#

if it was, it wouldn't be falling

#

and its not falling due to how much moisture there is in the air bc it seems to all fall at once, tho that could just be bc of pebbles steaming out in waves

sudden jackal
#

Would it be cold

meager moat
#

maybe

#

idk much about the rain cycle

plucky zenith
#

The heat from the clouds would dissipate up, most likely making the atmosphere (the air) very hot, but not the water itself

sudden jackal
#

So cold rain

plucky zenith
#

I.E. if you were above the clouds, you'd get a strong-ass updraft

sudden jackal
#

Sweaty scug

plucky zenith
#

"Cold" being defined as cool enough to condense, so below boiling

#

still could be extremely hot

sudden jackal
#

Should I make the water warm in my fic. I already wrote it to be cold

plucky zenith
#

nah cold works

sudden jackal
#

I already wrote it in to be painful

plucky zenith
#

I think it contrasts nice with the hot temperature plus the (most likely) pleasant coolness contrasting with the impending danger

sudden jackal
#

Ok

#

I mean the rain isn't pleasant to inv. He hates it.

No more dragon mod. Dragon people yes, dragon dragons...no

WHY THE COLONISTS AND GUESTS?!

In other news, think I figured out why the custom Scavengers weren't showing up... Had them as hippies, woops!

OKAY, new colony plan: No dragons, build a bleeping wall, get siege weapons researched sooner rather than later, avoid mass cas events

Any objections?

Nah, not from me cap monkdesperation

Because one dragon beat the snot out of four people. Two with knives, the other two shooting it with a high caliber revolver and a shotgun

So...if it can survive that in close quarters and Monster Hunter has things literally swimming in flipping lava...

Does the hammer deal huge damage than sword? huntereyebrow

In Monster Hunter?

#

Greatsword is literally the most damage focused weapon the game, followed by hammer bonking things in thr head

Yes slugcheese

unkempt yew

Personally prefer momentum more than heavy hitters. Can't take damage if you don't get hit

unkempt yew

Must tank the damage hunterbarrage

lament blade

"Tank" the damage...

That would be either lance or gunlance then

unkempt yew

And trust me as a guy who's been playing the games for a long time, tanking is not in your favor against things that can make localized earthquakes or burn forests down

Now that I think about it...there is maybe one other dragon mod I could check out...

Toothless did show up and...ruin things a bit

But that wasn't a Nightfury...

Maybe I swap dragon mods???

unkempt yew

@scenic escarp okay so if i wanna keep the robe the orange i see only 2 real ways, with the body being either teal or purple

scenic escarp
#

Put colors on separate layers, recolor to experiment

#

Perhaps a chrome-kind of effect, to create teal and purple?

fringe anchor
#

i just plopped the colors in the rough shape and looked at it slagony

scenic escarp
#

Shiny... beetle-like

#

May I see 👁️

BLOB... slugweep

#

You can always plop down the simple ref and say, in description, that they're iridescent like beetle, nothing stopping other people from drawing them like that huntercool

fringe anchor
#

perhaps

#

anyways uhh which scheme looks better to you?

scenic escarp
#

Because what's to stop you from envisioning them how you want? :D

#

Hhhh they're both cute

fringe anchor
#

me, for i am my greatest enemy /j

fringe anchor
scenic escarp
#

Leaning towards teal body
True - But don't all iterators look quite similar?!

fringe anchor
#

even better before that i tried teal body with purple symbol as a dot (placeholder) and then i went like "wait a second" slagony

scenic escarp
#

Create another distinguishing feature?

fringe anchor
#

i mean this is a placeholder and the symbol will be more detailed but i just thought that was funny

#

oh right, antennas, i knew i was missing sth

scenic escarp
#

Looks like shuttle suits are also called pumpkin suits, that's something potentially to work with
Or additional long wires coming out of their body, their sides

fringe anchor
#

spooky scary ittyrator

#

i mean, that wouldn't make much sense, well, unless...

scenic escarp
#

Wait, is that not what the suits do slagony
Hol up I gotta research deeper

fringe anchor
#

i mean those are less so EVA suits and moreso flight and life support suits iirc

#

the "not making much sense" was more "why would the ancients make it like this"

scenic escarp
#

Ahhh I see
Consider: did the Ancients ever make sense monksilly

fringe anchor
#

i mean i guess if they wanted to give the puppet its own life support in case of de-hermetization

#

though there are some questionable things to that

scenic escarp
#

They did prefer form over function, so it could be decorative

fringe anchor
#

dangling wires

scenic escarp
#

Already, their wire management sucks

fringe anchor
#

yeah just have them float in the chamber what's the worst that could happen

scenic escarp
#

(These are all just food for thought for you to take inspiration where you choose)

fringe anchor
#

eeeeeeeeeh idk if i like this

#

purple as primary is not a good idea i think

scenic escarp
#

Color picking is hard slugpensive
Allow me to tweak the colors?

fringe anchor
#

yeah sure

#

i mean i think the best combo so far is the "totally-not-LTTM"

#

i could do that but i'd have to make sure there are some differences

open matrix
#

blue coat could look pretty

#

the orange tones for face and shading

#

the pink for highlights?

#

or pink for coat details?

#

not sure

fringe anchor

#

Desaturating one or two of the colors may help

open matrix
austere hawk
#

I think purple and orange can work, but they are complementary colors so it’s a striking combo

open matrix
#

id take the darker one, tho i would need to see how it all looks together firstmonksilly

fringe anchor
#

well this abandons the symbolism i kinda wanted but fuck it, looks quite nica actually?

#

... aaaaaaaaaand i'm ripping off SRS slagony

oh yeah wait, suns colors

#

ehhhh

#

First is yours a tad desaturated, second was my take on Amany's idea, and third is freestyle

does it burn your eyes?

not at all

fringe anchor

... actually

#

sliver has a more light robe

#

and i'm not taking into account antennas

open matrix
#

not sure if i prefer white eyes or not

#

also ignore the markings, i just want to see how well the color works over the entire face

fringe anchor
#

noooooooo we're back to budget moon monkdesperation

open matrix
#

naaaa

#

i dont think so?

#

the blue is much lighter?

fringe anchor
#

it is quite close to that

open matrix
#

also if you make the antennae really distinct, not like me, that also changes her

Maybe give the cloak a gradient to another color/shade that makes it look distinct?

hello stories

fringe anchor

I also like the light blue and don’t think it looks too much like moon

#

A gradient to a different color hunterglee

manic otter

you could gradient the cloak orange / lightish pink if you wanted (i'm assuming orange is the keeping color)

fringe anchor

it'll suuuuuuuurely work out if i just try to make it distinct enough, right? monksilly
