Is there a bottom?

balmy sonnet
#

Yes

#

I can attest to that

tropic prawn
#

Can you do anything else to slow yourself?

#

Or try to catch something partway down?

balmy sonnet
#

Nope

#

It’s just a drop

#

And then the path splits in two

#

Idk what zone I’m even in yet, not got far enough in to have the title card show

#

All I know is the drop

tropic prawn
#

Does the shaft have walls? Can you try to slide down them?

balmy sonnet
#

I could try but they do curve away from me at the very start

#

I’ll try that tomorrow

#

I assume you know roughly where I am in the world right?

#

(If so feel free to let me know if pebble wants me to stay without the farm array and actually find something there, I’ve just about got the hang of it I think)

tropic prawn
#

(yes I know exactly where you are down to the pixel)

balmy sonnet
#

You can see my exact location right now

#

Your probably this weird blue eyeball guy

tropic prawn
#

(there's a big broken thingy hanging above the pit in the background)

balmy sonnet
balmy sonnet
#

I can grab that while falling at terminal velocity??

tropic prawn
balmy sonnet
#

Ooh

tropic prawn
balmy sonnet
#

Ooh you mean the big broken thing that almost looks like a robot?

#

Like a robot face

patent umbra
#

the 🗿

balmy sonnet
#

thankfully the shock bugs respawn at the same rate as i will need them

#

so i wont run out of food

#

manged to climb very slowly down

#

made it to the subterrarian

#

and died

#

looked like a dead end anyway

#

uh

#

i met an eldrich god?

#

very confused

#

anyway...

#

this place seems to be an old subway station

#

which is interesting

#

oooh new lizard!

#

its compleatly black

#

seems to be blind i think? it kinda snuck up on me and only noticed me when it touched me

#

found the filtration system

#

black lizards are really fun

#

thats the second dream ive had in a row...

#

the first was a ghost slugcut floating in a void surrounded by orbs of light

#

this is the smae but the slugcat is falling

#

found the depths

#

i slid down the side of what looks like a mineshaft to get here

balmy sonnet
#

i found a tall shadowy man

#

with a orgage thing above him

#

he refused to elaborate

#

i found another

devout gazelle
#

Shadowy man rivflabbergasted

balmy sonnet
#

i have just realised that this is almost the shadow wizard money gang

#

there are 4 ive emt

#

met

#

they can do magic or something

#

i just need to give them a dollar

devout gazelle
#

They are friendly.. if you have de requeriments-

balmy sonnet
#

i got a square

devout gazelle
#

Square?

balmy sonnet
#

a glowing square that sits above my head like a halo

brisk lichen
balmy sonnet
#

i wanna eat it

devout gazelle
#

Oh

#

I don't k know what's that-

balmy sonnet
#

in that case you should leave this channel, this is spoiler stuff far beyond that

devout gazelle
#

Oh, i already finished my game

balmy sonnet
#

oh

devout gazelle
#

I just didn't explore these things too much

#

It was too dafk

#

Dark

balmy sonnet
#

ah ok

#

to be fair, there is a way to fix that issue forever

#

but you gotta explore more

#

and then do something bad

#

or good, depends on the mindset

devout gazelle
#

He

#

Wait

#

You're on what area?

balmy sonnet
#

subterrarina

#

now in the caves under it

devout gazelle
#

Oohhh

#

The depths?

balmy sonnet
#

yeh

devout gazelle
#

Continue exploring the depths so

#

You just gotta need parkour skills-

balmy sonnet
#

yep, ive been told to explore all around here

#

its impressive you made it here with no guidance tbh

devout gazelle
#

And just to you know (i suppose you alr know), there are no enemies in this area

balmy sonnet
#

yeah, thank you

devout gazelle
balmy sonnet
#

It is very wobbly in the depths rn

devout gazelle
#

Yea

balmy sonnet
#

taking a short break

#

ill be back

devout gazelle
#

Ok

#

I'll just wait here, i wanna see you exploring the depths

balmy sonnet
#

back

#

@devout gazelle

devout gazelle
#

Back

#

Where you are in the depths now?

balmy sonnet
#

man its getting weird, ive been jn the caves moving east for a while now

devout gazelle
#

Ooohh, the screen is in a yellow color?

balmy sonnet
#

a buch of orange noodle ghosts have appeared

devout gazelle
#

Like water

balmy sonnet
#

yeah

#

the ripple effect is strong now

devout gazelle
#

Ooohh, continue so

#

Continue until find a lake

balmy sonnet
#

oop i fell

devout gazelle
balmy sonnet
#

found water

devout gazelle
#

Now, jump in

#

And start swimming to the depths of this lake

balmy sonnet
#

okie

#

dont wanna be rude but let me take the lead hehe

devout gazelle
#

Oka

balmy sonnet
#

something is causing a ripple

#

oh no

#

its the things from the shoreline

devout gazelle
#

Hehe

#

Also, may i ask. You play on what platform?

balmy sonnet
#

steam deck

devout gazelle
#

Oh

#

That's cool

devout gazelle
#

Lol

#

It's just like that

balmy sonnet
#

??????????

#

nooooo

devout gazelle
#

balmy sonnet
#

i dont like

#

devout gazelle
#

Oh, wait

Is he moving SO FAST that your screen is shaking?

balmy sonnet
#

devout gazelle
#

Its ok so

#

Just wait and see

balmy sonnet
#

#

devout gazelle
#

Hehe

balmy sonnet
#

#

#

devout gazelle
#

Teehee

#

You know the response..

Continue swimming-

balmy sonnet
#

lots of me

#

deep

#

deeeep

#

deeeeeeeeeep

#

forever

#

into the abyss

#

am i doing this right?

balmy sonnet
#

that was of here wasnt it

#

that was me looking at those huge creatures

#

and then swimming down

#

Still diving

devout gazelle
#

Try going to the right

#

If nothing's happening

balmy sonnet
#

Ok

#

Am I heading for a brighter bit of water?

#

As that’s been above me for ages

#

I thought it was the surface

devout gazelle
#

Can you take me a print/photo of your screen? Just to see if it is right

balmy sonnet
#

Ok

#

Takes ages to save it

devout gazelle
#

Oh yea

#

Follow the light

balmy sonnet
#

Oh

devout gazelle
#

Go in his direction

balmy sonnet
#

Damm

#

His?

#

Nvm don’t answer

devout gazelle
#

The light i mean

#

I'm bad at english

balmy sonnet
#

Ok

#

Ooh

#

I did it

#

Cutscene time

devout gazelle
#

Teehee

balmy sonnet
#

Is it over?

#

Oh

#

There is so much more to do though!

#

What do I do now?

#

I know nothing more than when I started

#

I ascended according to the achivments

devout gazelle
#

Hehehe

#

You finished survivor's campaing-

#

Well, uhm, you have now other 4 slugcats (for now) to play

balmy sonnet
#

4?

devout gazelle
#

There are Hunter, Gourmand and Artificer
(And monk, that is a "easy" game option)

balmy sonnet
#

Monk, survivor and hunter

#

Ooh

#

I can’t afford the dlc

devout gazelle
#

Ooohh

#

Try playing Monk so, Hunter is hard

#

Or you can try hunter for a challenge

balmy sonnet
#

I’ll use remix mode to make hunter easy

#

As I found survivor hard

#

I’ve done my challenge now, I want to understand this world

devout gazelle
#

Well, after survivor's campaing i don't know anthing more

balmy sonnet
#

Okie

tropic prawn
balmy sonnet
#

Ok

#

Do all the campaigns have different stories?

tropic prawn
balmy sonnet
#

How so?

tropic prawn
# balmy sonnet How so?

From the opening cutscene: the Monk is ||a sibling to the Survivor||, and ||they try to go look for them and get lost themselves||. The rest of the story goes about the same, but with the characters swapped around and ||the guy in Five Pebbles being a bit mad because this is the second time this week-||

balmy sonnet
#

Haha that’s really funny

#

So apart from that one bit of dialog is there any changes whatsoever that I may miss out on?

tropic prawn
#

The world and its ecosystems have changed, very slightly, and there are some lore implications there if you look close enough, but they're not important.

balmy sonnet
#

Because if that’s the only change I may just ask someone send that diolog here

tropic prawn
# balmy sonnet Because if that’s the only change I may just ask someone send that diolog here
I am growing increasingly impatient with the traffic of your kind through me and my premises.

During previous interactions, I have been rewarded no other response than a blank stare. Yet you apparently have sufficient ability for communication to circulate complex instructions on how to enter this chamber among each other.

You and your kind have the same problem as everyone else, from the microbes in the processing strata to me, who am, if you excuse me, godlike in comparison. We all want a way out. It is only unfortunate that you have collectively decided on... me as your solution to that very elemental desire.

The last one I gave some help and some general directions. I will do the same for you.

Go west. Past the Farm Arrays. Where the land fissures, go down into the earth and search your way deeper.

Now in return I ask you to use whatever grunts, moans and eye-twitches you employ to forward a message to your community.

Please stop scratching your way through my memory arrays.

Speaking of, on your way out please use the access shaft.
balmy sonnet
balmy sonnet
#

This brings up a new question

#

Why was pebble aware of the goings on down there

#

And what made them send me

tropic prawn
balmy sonnet
#

I look forward to it

tropic prawn
#

Look closely at the world around you, listen carefully to what you hear slugtoast

balmy sonnet
#

ok ill try

balmy sonnet
#

it feels weird to finish an entire game and probably know less by the time i finish than when i started

#

it was so simple when i started

#

i just had to survive, maybe learn more about the rain

#

now i have met 2 eldrich gods, one creature of the abyss. 2 biomechanical creatures

#

weird

balmy sonnet
#

btw what happens if i ever lose a coloured pearl?

#

im worried at some point a pearl has been moved or given away and i wont be able to find it

#

also does the downpour dlc have its own lore? i heard a lot of it is just the same game

tropic prawn
tropic prawn
balmy sonnet
#

ok thx

#

does lost include given to moon?

#

also if i turn it on now will they all respawn?

inland heron
#

It tracks whatever currently exists

balmy sonnet
#

ah ok

#

ill turn that on asap then

inland heron
#

It cant track whats already been lost

balmy sonnet
#

thx

balmy sonnet
#

i should probably write down all my questions so i dont forget them

#

auto mod isnt happy with me

#

ill send it in parts so i can figure out what was the blocked word

#
  • what is causing the rain, why is it so messed up
  • why is everything in ruin
  • who was that orange creature that followed me until i ate moons jellyfish
  • who is moon
#
  • what is the creature in the water at shoreline (and also in the depths). it feels important
  • what is going on in the background, its huge robtic things
  • who is pebble
  • what is the blue stuff inside five pebbles
#
  • why is five pebbles and the depths protected from the rain
  • what are these strange creatures i meet that have a rippling effect around them and reset my day
  • what is the karma system actually
  • what were the people inside the depths who refused to speak to me
  • what was causing the rippling distrotion effect in the depths
#
  • what are the weird orange noodle ghost things
  • what are they actually leading me too
  • why did i dive so deep
  • what was that creature down there that grabbed ahold of me and took me even deeper
  • what actually happened to me down there, i assended according to the achivment but that means nothing to me
patent umbra
#

Well, pearls are definitely the right step to answering some of that

balmy sonnet
#

ill probs delete from this list once i find out the answer

#

yeah

#

all i know for the ending was that the dreams ive been having are prophetic

#

many of the dreams are of what happens to me in those moments

patent umbra
#

I think you can also get info on one of the questions by bringing a certain non-pearl item

balmy sonnet
#

oh?

#

i can do that?

#

i thought she only liked pearls

patent umbra
#

Other things can jog her memory too huntershrug she likes the company

balmy sonnet
#

i wonder if she speaks during the rain

#

i also need to understand how she survives

tropic prawn
tropic prawn
balmy sonnet
#

it does and doesnt

#

if anything it brings up more questions

#

many things in this world are based in science, as a result im of the opinion that "leaving this world behind" may just simply mean i have died at the end and the entire ending cutscene could just be metaphotical

#

but

#

then again

#

floating eldrich creatures that reset my day and let me keep memories of it makes be belive otherwise

#

so

#

do yall know what i mean by the eldrich creatures? ive mentioned them a few times now

balmy sonnet
#

ok cool

#

met two of them now

#

or one in different places

patent umbra
#

As I called them on first impression, the disco pinecone(s) monklaugh

balmy sonnet
#

lol

balmy sonnet
#

i think ill save the lore stuff for another day

#

would yall say its too op to consider getting a renewable passage mod?

tropic prawn
#

But then again, you've finished the game, so I'm less concerned...

#

I think, really, you should at least try out the Hunter and stuff, make sure you've done most of what you want to do with the vanilla game, before trying mods.

balmy sonnet
#

yeah

#

i was thinking of it for much much later dw

devout gazelle
#

Woah

#

You gonna try hunter? @balmy sonnet

balmy sonnet
#

maybe? i suck at the game

devout gazelle
#

Too

#

(i'm starting hunter rn)

#

I think i just don't have enough combat experience with the other slugcat

#

Sooo i will try hunter

tropic prawn
balmy sonnet
#

worst case scenario i can put easy mode on

tropic prawn
balmy sonnet
#

yeah dw i will

tropic prawn
#

I don't know how much you've been spoiled to them-

balmy sonnet
#

once im calling bullshit for everything ill put it on

balmy sonnet
#

none at all in the survivor run

tropic prawn
balmy sonnet
#

ooh

#

the hunter is red

#

thats it

tropic prawn
balmy sonnet
#

and hunts things

tropic prawn
balmy sonnet
#

tho thats speculation

#

ill probs go and play hunter once i find all the pearls

#

i want a rough understanding of the world first

#

as idk what to think rn

balmy sonnet
#

Maybe it’s time I revive this old forum. I need to understand this games world

#

Though technically this won’t be my first play though? Is it still worth posting here or making a new one?

#

I’ll be playing under the assumption I’ve never played before

#

Survivor again I recon. Hunter probably has extra information that is exclusive to them but I feel like it’s best to just do survivor

#

Also I remember being bad at the game

#

Btw is watcher canodical?

#

Also holy hell, it’s been over a year since I last played

#

I missed this

#

Weffles attempt at survival [NEW]

balmy sonnet
#

Old save file deleted, let’s do this again

#

I wonder if the tree you see in the cutscene is visible anywhere

#

Also I’ve noticed, the slug cats seemed totally unprepared for the rain, does that imply the rain is local only to this city?

balmy sonnet
balmy sonnet
#

Ok! Reset my map so idk where I am

#

I found an gate near a pool of water that needs the second from highest (current highest) access level

#

Maybe I’ll go there

#

My plan this time is to meet pebble first and then moon

#

So I don’t need to eat her pets

#

I just realised. I have never thought about it before but what are the access levels functionally?

#

How does the door know how long I have lived for

#

And why does the door care

languid orbit
#

hiya

balmy sonnet
#

heyo!

#

so yeh. as i said above i descovered a ton on my first playthough and understood NONE so im trying to learn stuff this time

#

and to do that i am skipping speaking to moon as i dont wanna hurt her

languid orbit
#

understandable

balmy sonnet
#

so im stealing jell fish from pebbles instead

languid orbit
#

:3c

#

he has so many, he wont mind

balmy sonnet
#

i fear its gonna be a ton of backtracking as i can only realistically take one pearl with me at a time to moon

#

as i need two hands for the squid frogs to transport me

#

sea glide style

languid orbit
#

true true

#

you can also always just store them in the shelter until you have all of them

#

(the one closest to moon)

balmy sonnet
#

i also wanna track down those creepy gods or whatever i found

#

the ones that make ripples in the world and then take you back to the start of the day

languid orbit
#

ohh those guys!

#

Yeah their cool ^^

balmy sonnet
#

i know at least 2 of them exist

#

one after i met pebble

#

and one much later on

#

i cant remember where but if you scroll up i def mentioned it

languid orbit
#

nod

balmy sonnet
#

but yeh, which gate do you recommend for the fastest route to pebble?

#

ideally avoiding the shaded citadel if possioble because of the lack of lightsource

languid orbit
#

hmm. well youve seen drainage, but theres a gate towards the up section.

balmy sonnet
#

aka the lack of jelly fish in my belly

#

drainage is the onyl area in the game ive not already been to btw

languid orbit
#

you'll know youve found the area because the pipe has a purple glow to it monkcheese

#

aka industrial

balmy sonnet
#

ahh ok

#

head for industry

#

i remember the route

languid orbit
#

do you know the way to chimney in industrial?

balmy sonnet
#

more or less

#

lotta climbing

languid orbit
#

it's a bit of an.. annoying way to get to pebbles. but if you want to avoid shaded i'd suggest chimney

balmy sonnet
#

yeah

#

im terrified of shaded even when i was glowing

#

spiders................................

languid orbit
#

though, it can be a bit annoying to get into pebbles from the wall

balmy sonnet
#

yeah i rememebr, climbing up the western side of that sucked ass before

#

but ill manage

#

hopfully i get lucky with white lizards

languid orbit
#

have you seen the things that stick to walls ? in underhang ? monkconfused unsure if u know their names

#

their blue

#

(not blue lizards)

balmy sonnet
#

the goop?

languid orbit
#

they have uhmm pink tongue things that stick to stuff from both ends

balmy sonnet
#

black and blue and sometimes has X shapes on them

languid orbit
#

thats a different one

balmy sonnet
#

oooh the grapples!

languid orbit
#

yes the grapples!

balmy sonnet
#

love me a grapple worm

languid orbit
#

theres grapple worm spawns in chimney

balmy sonnet
#

oooh

languid orbit
#

if you wanna grab one of those

balmy sonnet
#

spider slug, spider slug

does whatever a spider can

languid orbit
#

it might make it easier to get into pebbles from the wall, otherwise you'd need to pin a spear into the floor and then one into the wall.

balmy sonnet
#

noted thanks!

#

give me a few hours and ill hop onb

languid orbit
#

their on the righter side of chimney

balmy sonnet
#

got it

#

ill see if i can spot a pearl while im exploring

#

do the colours have meaning btw?

languid orbit
#

coloured ones means they have unique texts that relate to lore hunterglee

balmy sonnet
#

oooh ok

#

so thats how i know which ones can be traded with?

languid orbit
#

their also just then easier to differ them

languid orbit
balmy sonnet
#

trade white ones so funny people

#

maybe keep a few just to see the stories on them

languid orbit
#

white ones still get info, but its moreso a large bunch of text options picked from randomly

balmy sonnet
#

okie

#

(i might also @ 2 3 8 4 8 when i give pearls to moon, they seem to have a collection of all texts)

languid orbit
#

alright monkblush

#

ill pop in here from time to time.

balmy sonnet
#

Please do! It’s fun to document this

#

Ill be playing in an hour or so I recon

languid orbit
#

alright!

balmy sonnet
#

hopping on now

languid orbit
#

awesome

balmy sonnet
#

On my way into industrial now

#

Gates doing its thing

#

Hope I learn thto function fo them sometime

#

Almost got jumped by a blue lizard instantly Xad

languid orbit
#

oh dear

balmy sonnet
#

Blue marble obtained

#

whats that

languid orbit
#

oo

#

that something that ties to another creature

balmy sonnet
#

Oh?

#

It seemed to react to me being at the top of the pole

#

So I left it alone

languid orbit
#

yes, it can make the other creature angry if they see you with it

balmy sonnet
#

Ah ok

#

getting there

languid orbit
#

so close!

balmy sonnet
#

damm

#

may have gone the wrong way

languid orbit
#

where did you go

balmy sonnet
languid orbit
#

oh yeah thats towards shaded

#

backtrack a bit

balmy sonnet
#

yeah thought so

#

felt off

languid orbit
#

chimneys up there !

balmy sonnet
#

yeah

#

thx!!

languid orbit
#

theres also a shelter near the gate, so if you have enough food you can sleep there

balmy sonnet
#

will do!

#

lizaard....

languid orbit
#

not the lizards

balmy sonnet
#

omg.. i took the long way

#

the really long way

balmy sonnet
languid orbit
#

ah good!

#

sorry im doin other stuff while here

balmy sonnet
#

i made it haha

#

grabbing food and then ill explore CC

languid orbit
#

yummy food

balmy sonnet
#

bak

#

imma store a white pearl in the first shel;ter in CC unless there is a camp

cerulean musk
balmy sonnet
#

from CC im not sure exactly where im heading but north east is probs a safe bet

cerulean musk
#

even if op doesn't seem to mind it's better to not tell information unless it's specifically asked for

balmy sonnet
#

thank you evil but dont worry! ive already beat the game once

#

this is a victory lap to learn the lore

cerulean musk
#

you can call me rattuse monksilly

balmy sonnet
#

and ill happily take all the advice i can get

#

haha will do!

cerulean musk
#

well just something to keep in mind then in case they ever help other new players rivowo
there's so much more to discover even after completing the game once after all

languid orbit
#

im not this specific normally to new players

cerulean musk
#

even if you beat it once there is still always more to find that is new, honestly

balmy sonnet
#

THE PERSON STABBED ME

#

WHY

#

i did nothing!

cerulean musk
#

it's just something to be aware of and we do encourage players to find things out by themselves even if it's not a first first playthrough slugpraise

balmy sonnet
#

man.... i thouught they were friends

cerulean musk
#

you existed monksilly

balmy sonnet
#

also as they are here should i bring the pearl with me?

#

to buy my way past a camp?

#

i cant remember if there is a camp in this zone

cerulean musk
#

seems like a good idea if you think it might be useful

languid orbit
balmy sonnet
#

yeah

#

imma take it

#

the flower i had didnt get planted

#

no more shield flower

cerulean musk
#

using hints instead of being direct is encouraged unless a direct answer is asked for

languid orbit
#

alright

cerulean musk
languid orbit
#

thanks for telling me though, thought the stuff i was saying was alright bc theyve beaten the game before and know a lot of the region names hunterbonk . good to learn thoughslugheart

balmy sonnet
#

rain got me....

#

i couldnt find a single shelter

#

and got lost

#

leaving the pearl

#

i need both hands

#

died agian

#

rain

#

i wonder if its possible to survive the rain

#

ooh

#

gold pearl

#

damm

#

#

#

my buddy has changed coluore

#

#

is it just teamwork?

languid orbit
#

balmy sonnet
#

rain

#

#

thje orange dudes slowed me down

#

i can do this tho

languid orbit
#

balmy sonnet
#

languid orbit
#

i dont think theres a specific definite size monkcurious

#

mmaybe im wrong..? but to my knowledge i do not know.

balmy sonnet
#

"hey guys, lets show this dude how the physics engine works" - every creature in the wall

#

wanna know how many creaurres ive encoutered NOT falling into the screen?

balmy sonnet
#

I MADE IT TO SHELTER

#

OMG

languid orbit
#

YEAH well done !!!

balmy sonnet
#

woah....

#

i never stopppewd to look at this before as i was so confused after meeting the eldrich god

#

i can see the moon

#

green stars are odd

#

also wow. i thoughtt this city would be the only one

#

but no. there seems to be many

#

and if i go though this door and take the first doorway up and left it takes me to the god

#

which is why i assume my visoin is blurry

#

Hmm, I gotta learn how to high jump

languid orbit
languid orbit
balmy sonnet
#

i need to jump good

#

im trying to throw a spear but i cant get enough height even with a backflip

languid orbit
balmy sonnet
#

THATS ME IN THE CORNER

THATS ME IN THE. SPOT. LIGHT

languid orbit
balmy sonnet
#

sorry

#

yes please

languid orbit
balmy sonnet
#

teach me

languid orbit
#

Since you know how to backflip, when you backflip you can actually spear the floor.

#

but your most likely gonna have to get another spear

balmy sonnet
#

huh. no rain up here??

#

i suppoise im above the clouds

languid orbit
#

nope! your safe up there

balmy sonnet
#

ok. just need another spear

#

so i gotta head down

#

ill have to see how far i can get

languid orbit
#

you will be safe!

#

just dont go too far down is all.

balmy sonnet
#

got one

#

as long as i dont go below the shelter room im safe

languid orbit
#

yep!

balmy sonnet
#

ill take my time up here then

#

look around

languid orbit
#

alright! slugheart

balmy sonnet
# balmy sonnet

and i am right about the top left door being mr eldrich god right?

languid orbit
#

yep

#

the right goes to where your tryna get

balmy sonnet
#

Ok

#

I’ll come back for him as I know he takes me to my shelter

#

first off

#

wow

#

second

languid orbit
#

ah you made it! nice

balmy sonnet
#

is this really high up and near or REALLY far off and HUGE

languid orbit
#

Hmm... I think the best way to put it is, it is high up.

#

I'd say it's huge too, but not really , really far off.

balmy sonnet
#

So it’s on the same level as I am? Wow

languid orbit
#

yep!

balmy sonnet
#

You can see what I mean tho, it’s either a city on a tower or a HUGE city so big the perspective makes it weird

languid orbit
#

yeah i can see

balmy sonnet
#

Anyway, got to a shelter

#

If I speak with the eldrich god now will I understand him?

#

Without the cube

languid orbit
#

Not yet

balmy sonnet
#

Ok

#

I’ll get the cube first

#

pretty

languid orbit
#

oo yes very pretty

balmy sonnet
languid orbit
balmy sonnet
#

whys that?

languid orbit
#

i like the design of the guy on the bottom

balmy sonnet
#

ah ok

#

jesus why is discord being so slow to upload pics today

languid orbit
#

yeah discord was being weird for me earlier, but it was also my wifi too

balmy sonnet
#

ah,. discord may be going down rn haha

languid orbit
#

possibly

balmy sonnet
#

7k reports rn

#

on downdetector

languid orbit
#

ah i see..

balmy sonnet
languid orbit
#

discord isnt acting up for me rn

balmy sonnet
#

i forgot the gravity here

languid orbit
#

i like the gravity , i find it fun

balmy sonnet
#

its time

#

pebbles!

languid orbit
#

pebbles!! monksilly my fav

balmy sonnet
#

ok, before i go in

#

just incase iit changes dialog

#

not met moon, not explored most areas

#

found one blue pearl and one white

#

not ate any jellyfish

#

(after this convo i would very much appreciate it if someone could find the convo and put it in code blocks in this chat so i can read it after)

languid orbit
#

i can do that!

balmy sonnet
#

thx¬!

languid orbit
#

where did you enter pebbles from last time you played?

balmy sonnet
#

the normal way

#

though their structure

#

i finished the convo. gonna leave the normal way just to explore

#

and grab a jelly for the road

languid orbit
#

alright, lemme get what he says for ya

balmy sonnet
#

FUCK YOU PEBBLE

#

killedm me

#

he didnt seem to say anything specioal

languid orbit
#

do you still want the code blocked dialogue?

balmy sonnet
#

yes pls

languid orbit
#

. . .

...is this reaching you?

A little animal, on the floor of my chamber. I think I know what you are looking for.

You're stuck in a cycle, a repeating pattern. You want a way out.

Know that this does not make you special - every living thing shares that same frustration. From the microbes in the processing strata to me, who am, if you excuse me, godlike in comparison.

The good news first. In a way, I am what you are searching for. Me and my kind have as our purpose to solve that very oscillating claustrophobia in the chests of you and countless others. A strange charity - you the unknowing recipient, I the reluctant gift. The noble benefactors? Gone.

The bad news is that no definitive solution has been found. And every moment the equipment erodes to a new state of decay. I can't help you collectively, or individually. I can't even help myself.

For you though, there is another way. The old path. Go to the west past the Farm Arrays, and then down into the earth where the land fissures, as deep as you can reach, where the ancients built their temples and danced their silly rituals. The mark I gave you will let you through.

Not that it solves anyone's problem but yours.

Best of luck to you, little creature. I must resume my work.

#

here you are

balmy sonnet
#

returniong to the god and then going back for a jellyfish

#

thank you

languid orbit
#

no problem!

balmy sonnet
#

So I assume pebble is robotic?

languid orbit
#

yeah in a sense slugwoh

balmy sonnet
#

Ok

#

Spoke to the god

#

Something something glory of the sun

#

Something something we found a way

languid orbit
#

interesting

#

do you want code blocked dialogue for that to? or did you just want pebbles dialogue code blocked

balmy sonnet
#

If at all possible any and all dialog I find code blocked please

Don’t worry if not possible tho

languid orbit
#

all good, i can do that for you

balmy sonnet
#

Thx!

languid orbit
#

We can feel your presence, little creature.

Your attunement has become... much closer to ours.

The mark you received is an unimaginable gift.

The struggle, the cycles...

It can all fade, like a morning mist beneath the glory of the sun.

We found a way.

balmy sonnet
#

Creepy dude

#

Huh. Is it possible to get the cube without pebble?

#

I can skip his entire intro bit by having it

#

Where you can’t understand him

languid orbit
#

Hm, do you want the proper answer.

balmy sonnet
#

Yes please

#

I’m interested

languid orbit
#

if you die after getting the cube from pebbles without sheltering, you simply keep the cube.

balmy sonnet
#

Yeah

#

That’s what I’ve figured out after he killed me

#

I was just curious as to if there was another method

languid orbit
#

mm. no there is not

balmy sonnet
#

Like totally different method to obtain one

#

Haha fair

#

I love how creepy this place is

languid orbit
#

where are you now? In pebbles still?

balmy sonnet
#

Yeah

#

Mapped the entire first room

#

I’m being slow

#

Because this place is safe

#

Do eating more than 1 jelly fish help?

languid orbit
#

Hm, I'm not too sure? I tend to only eat one.

#

They do fill your food bar, so if you need to eat to shelter go for it.

languid orbit
balmy sonnet
#

Nice

#

“Memory conflux”

#

Oh fuck I can break things

languid orbit
#

oh yeah interesting spots

balmy sonnet
#

That scared me when it broke

#

I wanted to eat the spider

languid orbit
#

though, if your not expecting it, it can be startling.

balmy sonnet
#

Oh no

#

The goop is back

#

“Unfortunate development”

languid orbit
#

ah careful, im sure you got this!

balmy sonnet
#

Okie thx!

#

Got Gooped

languid orbit
#

oh no hunterkek

balmy sonnet
#

I don’t think I’ll go back though there tbh

#

It’s unnecessary

#

Going back a third time for a jellyfish

#

And then going out the way I came in

languid orbit
#

all good!

balmy sonnet
#

After that I’m off to see moon

languid orbit
balmy sonnet
#

Ooh

#

Does my little buddy still hate me even tho I didn’t eat moons jellyfish?

languid orbit
#

little buddy shouldnt hate you

balmy sonnet
#

He abandoned me when I ate moons jellyfish last time

#

And I’ve not seen him so far

#

Unless he is now blue

normal light
#

sometimes he just goes out on his own

balmy sonnet
#

oh ok

#

i hope he comes back

languid orbit
#

adventuring off on his own, im sure youll see him again sometime soon

balmy sonnet
#

i didnt like it when he replaced himself with ghosts on a string

languid orbit
#

ah, im sure he'll appear

balmy sonnet
#

no gifs allowed?

#

damm

#

was gonna send a worm on a string gif

languid orbit
#

i think tenor gifs might be blocked off here

balmy sonnet
#

ah ok

languid orbit
#

yeah

balmy sonnet
#

lolol

normal light
#

there is a monk, surv, and hunter version

languid orbit
#

i dont have the hunter ver

balmy sonnet
#

cute

#

anyway imma sleep. i basically did what took me a month in one day haha

balmy sonnet
#

im gonna take that blue pearl i found in a hole in IC to moon for her to look at

balmy sonnet
#

i return!

#

@languid orbit i dont suppose you can remind me the route to moon from CC?

normal light
#

there are many routes you can take !

balmy sonnet
#

Haha fair, I suppose what I mean is, what route is the nicest experience

normal light
#

it really depends on what regions you are most comfortable with

balmy sonnet
#

Fair enough

#

I’ll just explore around then

balmy sonnet
#

its funny how i instantly forgot about this game as soon as arc raiders came out huh?

balmy sonnet
#

@primal dune

#

welcome!!

primal dune
balmy sonnet
#

ive been playing off and on for a while now

#

currently im decending the wall after meeting pebble (went though the backdoor to avoid going though CC without a jellyfish in my belly)

primal dune
#

Nice progress so far sloggers

balmy sonnet
#

haha thx

#

im hopfullly going to loop around and go to moon, in a perfect world ill find some way to make the teliportation renewable (maybe a remix setting?) so i can make my life easier

#

more teliports and easier = safer pearls

balmy sonnet
#

damm...

#

thats a shame

#

currently the only major deaths im worried about are in the shoreline so i wanted to ask, do the big fish there have fixed spawns or do i gotta be stressed the entire time?

primal dune
#

Not really. If there's a big body of water you can expect one to show up

balmy sonnet
#

damm ok

#

the only areas i dont like for my health are pebbles, CC and shoreline

oak beacon
#

You can always outswim em hunterglee

balmy sonnet
#

ive nt really found any other areas that give me major issues

lucid hound
#

i say full send it

#

swim for ur little life

#

its part of the rain world experience

#

i tend to have good luck outswimming them im sure ull be right

balmy sonnet
#

okie! game plan!

i currently have one blue pearl with me. i am going to go back to outskirts or IC (whichever one is a better crossroads) and i will drop off the pearl in a shelter, from there i will be traveling west as far as i can go, making sure to drop any pearls i see into shelters along the way

#

the plan is to go to the farthest point away from moon (probably where that weird poolis) and look for pearls there

#

once im there i can start to backtrack and grab any pearls i see + the ones i see in shelters

#

and then once im finally at the enterance of a zone i can work on fully exploring and making sure i didnt miss any

#

before taking the pearls i found into the next zone

#

slowly creeping closer to the crossroads

#

and then repeat for north and south directions

#

once ive done that i should hopfully have like 8-10 pearls in one shelter which i can then attempt to teliport using a passage. if that fails i can teliport back and then focus on transporting them all over 2 by 2

#

one in my belly and one in my hand

#

i never feel comfy holding more incase i lose

#

reposting my idea for a interactive map that i mentioned inthe watcher spoiler channel:

#
i always had an idea for a map which is like a normal interactive map but instead of spoiling the entire area instantly it will ask you what enteracne you came from and only show you that room, you then select each door you have been though and it adds it to your version of the map and you slowly fill it out
so the map only shows the information you know about

meaning others can go "oh i know where you are! you should turn left and then go down 2 rooms to see something"

but it would be a better memory type thing. you can see each zone exactly as how they are in game with them showing as much detail as possible
pebbles level memory (idk, i assume he can remember a lot?)
photographic memory makes sense
#

i would love to make this so much

#

would need images of the entire world tho which annoyingly would spoil the game XD

#

i suppose i can work on it as i go

balmy sonnet
#

why did the bot juist level me up

#

like 6 hours after my last messag

normal light
#

if you were in vc that could be why

balmy sonnet
#

I wasn’t which is the weird thing

balmy sonnet
#

okie, time to play again

balmy sonnet
#

ive noticed trhe scavengers dont like my oranange buddy

#

i also have a blue one as well for a littkle

#

no clue why

#

anyway, im back in IC now

balmy sonnet
#

base camp set up

#

im located in the first shelter of IC

#

currently got 2 pearls. one blue and one white

#

may as well try to get the white pearls as well for the extra lore

#

heading into outskirts to complete the map there

#

if anyone knows how many pearls are in each zone i would really appreciate it

#

(ideally what colours as well)

#

exploring the outskirts and i find a weird area with that tangle weed stuff

#

you know the stuff that pulls you in and is super gross?

#

its like the goop

#

maybe it is goop

languid orbit
#

sorry just remembered to check in here

balmy sonnet
#

yes

#

ive been to every one except the one people say not to go to because its stinky

languid orbit
#

what one is that 😭

balmy sonnet
#

stinky as in actually or as in metaphorically im not sure

languid orbit
#

not sure what the stinky one is

balmy sonnet
#

something about it being a new player trap related to water

#

i want to say sewer system maybe???

languid orbit
#

close

#

system is correct

#

first word isnt

balmy sonnet
#

ah ok

#

welp, either way i am aware of all zones

languid orbit
#

and yeah it can be quite a trap

normal light
#

It’s not a trap

#

I quite like the region, it’s worth exploring
Ignore the people saying it’s bad

languid orbit
#

but it is yeah by no means a bad region

balmy sonnet
#

ok

normal light
#

try not to reveal things if they haven’t been there

languid orbit
#

it can just be tricky, i still have issues with it lol

balmy sonnet
#

i assume its the one from outskirts that has a pool of water there?

normal light
#

There are a couple pools of water in outskirts

balmy sonnet
#

ah haha sorry

#

to the west, you gotta fall down a large drop into a pool of water

#

and then there is a hgih level door

#

either way imma go there now

#

cant find a single pearl in outskirts

normal light
languid orbit
#

what abbreviations do you use for each zone youve visted so far

balmy sonnet
#

outskirts is outskirts

IC is industrial complex
SI is sky islands
shoreline is shoreline
pebble is their place
moon is their place
WF is wind farm (or is ti solar farm. one of them is a major zone and im forgetting

#

SC is the citadel (im convinced this place is either a metro or a prison)

normal light
#

there is no wind farm unless you modded it in or are misremembering
I’m going to assume it’s a memory thing hunterknowing

languid orbit
balmy sonnet
#

yeah

normal light
#

No shame in not remembering names because I struggle with that too slagony

balmy sonnet
#

haha yeah

languid orbit
#

aight, not sure what wind farm is ? so i cant rlly give the number sorry 😭

balmy sonnet
#

haha its all good

#

its whatever zone pebbles tells me to go to

#

oh wait hold on, we wrote that down

languid orbit
#

OH

#

that one

#

ok

balmy sonnet
#

farm arrays!

languid orbit
#

yees!

balmy sonnet
#

wind farms or solar farms is a spot in sky islands i think

#

a sub zone

languid orbit
#

possibly

languid orbit
balmy sonnet
#

got it. thanks!

languid orbit
#

feel free to ask about other zones when you get to them

balmy sonnet
#

pebbles has "coloured" ones tho in his zoom

#

which are white but pretty

#

if that makes sense

languid orbit
#

ah yeah, you can try grab em if you wanna

balmy sonnet
#

maybe haha

#

he doesnt like the intrusion

languid orbit
#

he needs his space ❤️

balmy sonnet
#

haha

#

ok! new zone time

#

lets see where this takes me

languid orbit
#

awesome

balmy sonnet
#

DS

languid orbit
#

fun

#

pearl right?

balmy sonnet
#

yes please

#

also ooh

#

new lizard

#

its red but remix is saying its pink

languid orbit
balmy sonnet
#

noted

#

thx!

languid orbit
#

np

languid orbit
balmy sonnet
#

deep red with brighter red frills and the same bright red eyes

#

it reminds me slightly of an axolotle

languid orbit
#

oo

#

very cute!

#

axolotles are cute

balmy sonnet
#

this one isntt

#

i got got

languid orbit
#

oh no..

#

their cute from afar tho right lizbluetilt

balmy sonnet
#

haha

#

agreed

#

ok! things i learnt

#

these dudes swim at a fairly medium pace all things considered

#

and move at a slow pace on ground

#

head is still strong even tho no visual "helm" to them

#

and they have a short tounge

#

summary: its not a white lizard

languid orbit
#

agile swimmers it seems

#

they can mlem!! monksilly

balmy sonnet
#

yayy

#

mlem

#

HA REVENGE

#

there was a trap vine that kept catching me due to a pink lizard forcing my hand

#

and the trap plant just got the lizard

languid orbit
#

huzzah!

balmy sonnet
languid orbit
#

most likely

balmy sonnet
#

this area really isnt that bad

languid orbit
#

thats good!

#

its a mixed bag for me personally

#

something in there annoys me to my wits end leditoroverload

balmy sonnet
#

is it the kelp?

languid orbit
#

nah

#

kelps alright

balmy sonnet
#

leeches

#

must be

languid orbit
#

yep

balmy sonnet
#

yeah

languid orbit
#

i struggle a lot with leeches despite having.. 580 hours on the game

balmy sonnet
#

ew

#

i found some weirtd octopus things

#

also jesus, not a fan of the music here

languid orbit
#

wuh woh

#

unsure what your talking about but must be icky

balmy sonnet
#

little octopus lookin things

#

normally green

#

oooh they make ink

#

smokescreen!

languid orbit
#

Ohhh those

#

i was rlly racking my brain like 'what one?!' and u mentioned ink and i remembered

balmy sonnet
#

haha

languid orbit
#

they can be pretty useful

balmy sonnet
#

leeches suck

languid orbit
#

yeah </3

balmy sonnet
#

slowly making it though this zone haha

#

what colour is this pearl? im praying its not blue and under the water

#

#

phew! close call

#

half a day left to get to shelter

languid orbit

you survived so far. why cant they

#

ok, delivered!

#

i seem to remember there being a gold pearl somewhere very very hgih

#

so ill check the highest part of IC real quick just incase

#

and then check SI
