Pain, Suffering, and Observing Creatures [Completed]

[cobalt raven]

I've travelled through the Outskirts, Industrial Something, and the Garbage Wastes! Currently crawling my way through the Drain System- It's a pain T-T

Some tips every now and then would be great! But for some stuff I'd love to figure things out on my own for the fun of it :D

Queeestion

Is it possible to see in the dark? And how?

Specifically for this one dark area in the drain system, I've been able to feel around on the walls but I've been dying to falling on something that's killing me and I don't know what T-T

It comes just after this area if it's any help

[rain crown]

your map will always show the true geometry, even when you can't see it

[cobalt raven]

Oh, thank you!

[topaz flume]

Pain, Suffering, and [spoilers]

Reposted for spoilers

[cobalt raven]

Bro stole my garbage worms smh /j
(mb didn't know it counted)

[cobalt raven]

Hello random axolotl

[rain crown]

📌

[cobalt raven]

Proceeded to forget about the rain

[cobalt raven]

Out of curiosity I threw a spear at the golden worm that follows you around and it uhm....died? I panicked and reset my progress T-T
Is this state of death for it permanent? Or atleast i think it's dead....it still blinks ;-;

[cobalt raven]

Might start taking notes like these for all the creatures

Probably not it;s actual name but whatever lol

[errant jackal]

ooo

that's really neat

[cobalt raven]

I wish for every single vulture to burn.

YEAH GET EM

[cobalt raven]

i.hate.vultures

oooooo I got batfly role, what be that?

[rain crown]

gives you image perms everywhere but here and a few other spots

this chat bypasses the requirement since it's mostly new people

[cobalt raven]

ooo okay

[rain crown]

this is absolutely awesome btw

[cobalt raven]

I have made it past the vultures, i has berry to celebrate

[pallid wadi]

yum :)

good job!

[cobalt raven]

ty :D

I can't remember for sure, but I think someone said if I throw pearls at scavengers I can gain their trust. Is this true or is this just casual 4am madness?

[pallid wadi]

try it out!

[cobalt raven]

okie!

[cobalt raven]

I don't think the games wants me to

OH! I just reached cycle 100 as well!

Couldn't get 100, but here's 101

look at all those guys, chilling around their...tree skull

[pallid wadi]

whatever the heck that is XD

[pallid wadi]

nice!

[cobalt raven]

THEY HAS ACCEPTED MY GIFT!

i feel like i have walked in on a demonic ritual

[edgy juniper]

woah neat

(Love to see new players theorize )

Very detailed, too! And nice drawings.

[cobalt raven]

ty :3

Bro decided to take a nap

(I think a vulture got em)

rip

[long bloom]

This is extremely awesome and I need to make sure you know that

[dim siren]

Its so well-documented

[cobalt raven]

Y'all are so nice!

[pallid wadi]

Yeah I agree, it’s really cool.

It’s the first time I’ve seen a first-playthrough-er documenting their findings so well

[cobalt raven]

Sped up footage of me trying to get back to the Outskirts from the Garbage Wastes (only died 3 times this time!)

I also learnt that the Garbage Worm Fellas only take spears and maybe other rock-type-stuff like bolts and parts, they don't take food, pearls, or the exploding firework flowers!

[cobalt raven]

Okay...who gave the peacock lizard fly hacks?

I feel watched...like really watched

[cobalt raven]

Another to add to the list

I think i'm going to try the bats next

I've been observing them and i think they have nests

difficult to see the symbols though, tried me best xD

[edgy juniper]

I love these. Larry and Blob

[cobalt raven]

Pain, Suffering, and Observing Creatures

[cobalt raven]

filtration system

it is very red and scary, I am thankful that there's a shelter just after the shower gates

I can already tell this is going to be a pain T-T

also, dreams

(I am terrified)

[cobalt raven]

You gotta admit though, it's eerily beautiful in here

"Okay hear me out, instead of making a clear path down we make a maze!"

Not being able to see the lizards is going to be the end of me ;-;

[cobalt raven]

It fallin!!?

[cobalt raven]

im sorry

what.

[edgy juniper]

[elfin bloom]

Following this thread now

[cobalt raven]

Welcome to the chaos, have any extra braincells to spare?

[elfin bloom]

Do you promise not to eat them

[cobalt raven]

.......no promises

[cobalt raven]

Bats!

[cobalt raven]

Not a lizard?

mind telling your hedgehog cousins to move so i can stop doing the splits

OMG SOMEHOW THAT WORKED

IM FREE

[pine brook]

no way

[cobalt raven]

SPOKE TOO SOON

welp

omg it's a hoard of pearls

[cobalt raven]

Btw y'all, meet Gertrude!

They somehow got into my shelter...I killed them..and now their kinda just there

permanently

I can't get the corpse out LOL

[cobalt raven]

I was about to say the mushrooms are pretty...why are there oversized ducks with teeth

[edgy juniper]

[cobalt raven]

Hello friends

friend has light bulb

It dropped light bulb 0.0

NOO DUCK GOT THEM

[polar sail]

ducks have no mercy

[cobalt raven]

I might die to rain ;-;

rip lantern

can't even pronounce that ;-;

Well I was going to say it was a nice view.

[rain crown]

The Creature Approaches

[cobalt raven]

NOOO IT GOT FRIEND

And everything just went slow motion....great way to let me know my time is coming to an end

Imma make a run for it, pray the ducks dont get me

The local theme song just started playing

I'm on the literal verge of tears it scared me so bad

[edgy juniper]

happens

[cobalt raven]

why does the glowing grass want to eat me

[rain crown]

just a friendly hug

[cobalt raven]

I've run into the dark, no idea where I am, about to rain, everything is awesome

[cobalt raven]

YOU LIAR

[rain crown]

🙂

[cobalt raven]

XD

[edgy juniper]

touch grass

[cobalt raven]

nope, nuhuh, never touching grass again

forever shall i levitate off the ground

[cobalt raven]

I hope to soon return to the outskirts, to gertrude, to my shelter, away from METAL DUCKS?

Probably won't happen

Also, is it just me or do the ducks and the vultures without their mask have a similar face?

I'm starting to suspect that a lot of the creatures are robotic in some way

[edgy juniper]

IIRC one doesn't have a giant pair of scissors attached but I could be wrong

[cobalt raven]

hmm

They legit sound like walking metal

The vultures I don't think use their wings to fly, only to steer and glide. When they fly they eject this red smoke, I suspect that's what let's them fly.

OH!

[edgy juniper]

I like the theories

[cobalt raven]

once when i was in the garbage wastes I ventures to this area place and found uhh

hmm

imagine if a daddy long legs spider and a cat hairball had a lovechild

I just immediatly noped outta there

I did not want to get involved

[edgy juniper]

That is a fantastic description

[full ember]

That feeling when a daddy long legs

Eats everything

[cobalt raven]

Point being, I think a lot of the creatures are atleast part robot or have been in contact with some kind of substance that kinda messes with them (imagine nuclear waste), or been experimented on. CUZ I MEAN LOOK AT THE REPTILES! There are so many variations! Assuming we are in like a uhm destroyed city. The reptiles could have adapted to something. I'm not too sure about the robot things though. I'm on 3 hours of sleep I;m going to read this in the morning and just have to apologise to y'all for my madness

[cobalt raven]

should i be scared?

[full ember]

Maybe

[edgy juniper]

Oh goodness please sleep
Your theories are really fun to read though

[edgy juniper]

Only one way to find out!
(we'd rather not say)

[cobalt raven]

i wish i was back in like the outskirts or industrial place so I can get those firecracker flowers

its 30m to midnight

[full ember]

Sleep please

For your sake

[cobalt raven]

nope, dw I will eventually

[edgy juniper]

I mean, New Year's Eve, to be fair.

[cobalt raven]

yeee!

well Im going to attempt to get a lantern from the friend again

or maybe pick the big glowing mushrooms (probably wont work)

.........I just have questions

I got te lantern! It was on the floor...

and i saved! so im safe!

much easier to find food with light

5 minutes to new year! I shall leave y'all with this and go watch the fireworks outside :)

[frosty arch]

yay! hope you like fireworks enjoy!

[cobalt raven]

Honestly not really lol
They look cool but this year I couldn't see them from where I am :/ They mostly just made my pets nervous which was really annoying xD

I'm glad the scavenger dropped it's firework flower though, that was fun

Imagine eating the lantern and glowing

Shower thoughts while I wait for this guy to move

it got me ;-;

hallo buddy

nvm not very buddy

it shot me as i was trying to give it a pearl

shall try again

[urban anvil]

evil

you should kill them

kill them ALL

[cobalt raven]

But it gave me lantern :(

[cobalt raven]

Almost done with the berry journal entry

I like berrie :3

really pushing my limited drawing skills to its limits lol

[long bloom]

[topaz flume]

[cobalt raven]

I think I know what y'all are now

These guys

Y'all are just casually obseving

[long bloom]

the fphelpers are invading your game to stare

[cobalt raven]

LOL

[topaz flume]

:3

[cobalt raven]

Y'all, I'm in need of assistance ;-;

I wanna make an entry for this cockroach with eyes on it's back but I'm not in the outskirts and I don't have any in my screenshot gallery 😭
I don't want to google it either because of spoilers. Could y'all maybe spare a screenshot if you have any?

It kinda looks like this lol

It exists near the drain entrance and you can eat the eye things

[cobalt raven]

omg tysm!

[long bloom]

alg!

[topaz flume]

yippee

I await your entires

[cobalt raven]

Me too :D

[topaz flume]

We need fphelper emotes

[long bloom]

true lmao

overseers doing weird things

[errant jackal]

we have

because first playthrough helpers are Golden Worms™️

or Cyan Worms™️

[topaz flume]

[cobalt raven]

shhhh no name spoiling you little sneaky

[errant jackal]

what's an overseer

[cobalt raven]

Probably a penguin

[errant jackal]

IT SHOWED THE DEATH MESSAGE

WHY AM I STILL ALIVE

[errant jackal]

it's 6

[cobalt raven]

[cobalt raven]

yeah lol

[full ember]

They drop -2 eyeballs which means that they steal your eyes

[cobalt raven]

:0000

[full ember]

Correction

[cobalt raven]

Oh lawd he comin

[dim siren]

[full ember]

Someone found that on their own?

[dim siren]

[rain crown]

[cobalt raven]

Yeah I didn't see it

[dim siren]

phew

[cobalt raven]

LOL

Also!

I found out smth about scavengers

and the pearls

you can give them pearls

but

if you pick it up again they attack you

[rain crown]

this happens in real life too

[cobalt raven]

YES GET ME OUT OF HERE

OMG YOU'RE BACK

I MISSED YOU!

[long bloom]

Freedom!!

[cobalt raven]

:3

Is that fear or curiosity? Or perhaps both?

Also, i thought it had 3 arms T-T

[rain crown]

I think that's just straight up an inconsistency

[cobalt raven]

hMMmmMmMm

I don't know if i want to be here

here goes nothing ig

BRUH NOT THE MAGGOTS

I thought i escaped those ;-;

THERE ARE VULTURES HERE NOOO

kelp of death 2.0

BRUH

WHY

[cobalt raven]

It has like robotic jaws 0.0

[topaz flume]

:3

[cobalt raven]

Would be cool if it wasn't eating me

but like imagine killing something like that

[topaz flume]

yeaa

[cobalt raven]

what kind of area name is "looks to the moon"

am I about to become an astonaut?

oooooo

You can eat the jellyfish!!

insert circus theme

Why it showin me all the time

if i have to fight someone im going to cry

[errant jackal]

[cobalt raven]

Stars!

ooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

should I throw a pearl at it?

can i eat it?

can I eat the jellyfish around it?

it speakens in gibberish

I caught one of the jellyfish and it got mad 😭

should I eat the jellyfish or will there be consequences?

[errant jackal]

that’s for you to decide

[cobalt raven]

will.
there.
be.
consequences.

[errant jackal]

i am not allowed to say

Test it out

[cobalt raven]

[errant jackal]

if you want to

[cobalt raven]

am I...glowing?

I am scared it's upset T-T

is it okay..?

......im so confused

[topaz flume]

[cobalt raven]

not funny

DID I KILL IT???

[topaz flume]

Nah its funny
I like seeing what people do

[errant jackal]

That’s for you to de

[cobalt raven]

NO, TELL MEH

[topaz flume]

cide

:p

[cobalt raven]

nope nuh uh

reseting

when in doubt

throw a pearl at it

It doesn't appear to want my pearl

....welp

it shouted at me when i threw smth at it

I think that's a great point to leave

[cobalt raven]

I'm going to try again and sleep. If they die I'm blaming y'all

woahhh

that's a new symbol!

[cobalt raven]

teh jellyfish are spared for now

[topaz flume]

For now

[cobalt raven]

I wonder what those tower things are

GARBAGE WORMS YAY!!!!

[long bloom]

XD

[cobalt raven]

oo

Is it...snowing?

whaa

I saw a spider centipede

it killed light mouse

rest in peace

I wonder if i can eat it

It's surprisingly peaceful here

wonder if it will stay that way

[cobalt raven]

I lowkey would like to use this passage thing i have and go back to the outskirts so I can do my journal entries from start-finish as I explore more
Should I?

[long bloom]

it's up to you, if you want to do a detailed documentation of creatures that would make sense
keep in mind that after leaving outskirts, there really is no "one correct path", so your order wouldn't matter too much after that

[polar sail]

oh yeah that one
it deals psychological damage

[cobalt raven]

............wut

yeah no, im outta here

[polar sail]

i just think it's terrifying when they form a centipede

[pallid wadi]

that place is kinda freaky but its cool

[cobalt raven]

true!

[dim siren]

funni

[cobalt raven]

It's good to be back

The fact that you can straght up just hold it is hilarious

[long bloom]

It's not too big

[cobalt raven]

Strange symbols

CHONKY WORM

[long bloom]

Oh huh

[polar sail]

a worm huh

[cobalt raven]

YES GET THEM

random thing, if you are holding the roach and the uhh centipede comes to electicute you, it will kill the roach first! Not sure if this is 100% of the time

will have to test ;-;

bringing this guy in with gertrude

name ideas?

[long bloom]

Are you
Are you murdering and storing creatures to document them

[cobalt raven]

....only some of them

cant exatly store lizards i think

[long bloom]

Slightly morbid but also kinda cool

[cobalt raven]

gertrude was an accident

[long bloom]

XD

[cobalt raven]

but i am lowkey enjoying this

[long bloom]

Name suggestion... Dorothy

[cobalt raven]

perfect

[edgy juniper]

ooooo, finding lotsa stuff

[cobalt raven]

I feel like I'm observing something funny, but only y'all know why it's funny, and I am very confused

like a massive inside joke

[rain crown]

🙂

[topaz flume]

:3

[cobalt raven]

Ignore, replying for reference :)

[rain crown]

what's your name for those fellas

[cobalt raven]

Eye-Roach

[cobalt raven]

Adhd has said no, so I'm going to sleep and leaving the entry for tmr :)
see ya later!

[silver yoke]

Boop

[tough kestrel]

So cool

[cobalt raven]

Keeper of eyes! I had fun with this one :)
(see lower down for updated version)

Just opened the world, in a pile with Dorothy and Gertrude

[cobalt raven]

WHAT DO YOU MEAN IT CAN ALSO HAVE GREEN EYES?

hmm

[cobalt raven]

I'll add it in, don't pin this one yet lol

I'm going to also try make the original eye colours more visible

[cobalt raven]

should be a bit better

[frosty arch]

[pallid wadi]

Looks really cool, looking forward to the other creatures :)

[cobalt raven]

it's the pin war!!!!

[cobalt raven]

Too bad, you're not getting creatures (for now).
Instead I present y'all with popcorn while I suffer with this game :')

[cobalt raven]

that was fast

[pallid wadi]

Already XD

[polar sail]

nice

[cobalt raven]

Which should I do next?
Noodle mosquito 🦟 or fly with tentacle mouth 🪰
(screenshots below for reference)

[long bloom]

very cool

[edgy juniper]

These are awesome.

(Also, your commitment to researching these things has its benefits. I've seen people live for much longer than you have without noticing popcorn plants weren't a background element )

[pallid wadi]

Fly with tentacle mouse :))
they have cool behaviour and I wanna see how much you’ve noticed

[cobalt raven]

the golden worm was shouting at me with pictures, so it really wasn't that hard to notice lol

[edgy juniper]

Heh, that requires you understand and are paying attention to the golden worm's signals in the first place, which is surprisingly difficult

[long bloom]

people completely miss this for large amounts of the game

[cobalt raven]

WEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

[long bloom]

[edgy juniper]

[pallid wadi]

Those things are so fun to use

But then you rely on them too much and that gets me killed all the time lol

[cobalt raven]

It's kind of like a balloon

[cobalt raven]

Skill issue (I died to the same thing 10 seconds ago)

[cobalt raven]

It got in by itself ;-;

the fly to the left

if I'm not careful I might accidently trap myself under a pile lol

Also! I witnessed one catch a bat!

Average pole behaviour

[edgy juniper]

Wha-

[cobalt raven]

just wait like a couple more seconds for the clip lol

or hours depending on my internet

(Okay but seriously what's wrong with it 😭)

[edgy juniper]

I have no idea-

I've seen them glitch into other pipes before but that's not even a pipe

[cobalt raven]

Atleast it left my spear behind

[rain crown]

ah I know what happened there. Not sure how it didnt just fall out of bounds tho

[edgy juniper]

I'm surprised the game hasn't deleted it from existence out of fear

[rain crown]

the pole plant is on the same coordinate as the den it came from if I had to guess; it had probably grabbed a creature and that creature managed to get into a pipe while being held

not sure how it managed to go through 2 rooms though

[cobalt raven]

oop

Maybe it just wanted to do some yoga

big stretches

The fact that you can spear things and attach them to the wall is so amusing to me

if i mess up this kill I am truely bad at this game

i shall avenge the dead fly

double speared into the wall

I'd like to take a moment just to admire my first lizard kill in the outskirts 🥹

The urge I have to bring this thing into my shelter but it's too heavy

[edgy juniper]

[cobalt raven]

The fact that I'm holding the lizard like one of those dudes that caught a fish is amazing

[long bloom]

Except your slugcat arms are weak and floppy so youre kinda just holding it's head up a bit

[cobalt raven]

XD

[cobalt raven]

I really want to draw that image now

[errant jackal]

you should

[cobalt raven]

I'm in a meeting rn

[errant jackal]

you should after

[bronze roost]

Just found this thread, and I'd like to say, your journal is amazing and I love it!

Would not be opposed if you uploaded all the images at the end

[edgy juniper]

They're uploading 'em as they're making them I think.

[cobalt raven]

^

[bronze roost]

Yes but at the end as well

as a collection

[rain crown]

they're all being pinned as we go

[bronze roost]

Ah ok thx

[rain crown]

@last pawn please don't send spoilers.

you can see some guidelines for helping others in #1270823904247546017 (Includes full MSC spoilers) if you're interested

[last pawn]

sry

[cobalt raven]

o7 to all the server staff and helpers

[cobalt raven]

Ballon

[cobalt raven]

Ignore how the side view looks like it's been dried out in the sun and shriveled up xD

now to figure out where on earth the noodle mosquitoes hide

[cobalt raven]

......I was always confused as to what the mushrooms did...

I think i just figured it out

this is hilarious

[rain crown]

the effects can be a bit confusing because there's multiple that interact with each other

[cobalt raven]

oooo

I always thought the slowmotion was just my impending doom

but nope

just accidently ate a mushroom

hMmmMm

oml why do the noodle mosquitoes sound like trumpets

[rain crown]

there are videos on the internet where people use the noodle horn sound as a midi note

my favorite is the "hall of the mountain king" noodlefly cover

(they all include spoilers so don't look)

[cobalt raven]

That's hilarious LOL

[topaz flume]

I like the bad apples cover

Bad Nootnoots lmao

[rain crown]

best video for sure

@delicate creek summons you into a random FP thread

oh wait I don't have you friended

Damn

[cobalt raven]

what is "fp"

[long bloom]

First playthrough

[cobalt raven]

ah okie!

[full ember]

He has been summoned

[cobalt raven]

dun dun duun!

[delicate creek]

The sounds are actually ||party horns 🥳 ||

I'm like 90% sure

[cobalt raven]

oooooo

I was under the impression that they would attempt to strangle you, maybe they do

[delicate creek]

I was expecting it to be a random server updates ping, this is way better tbh

[cobalt raven]

it's been a while since i've looked at these guys

[full ember]

This person is documenting

All flora and fauna

[delicate creek]

ye I read up and saw the "tentacle fly" notebook entry/drawings

[full ember]

Ok

Pins

[cobalt raven]

EXCUSE ME SIR YOU ARE NOT A POLE

[errant jackal]

[cobalt raven]

Is this normal? 😭

[full ember]

Pole mimic mimic

[rain crown]

yeh

you stuck around too long :^)

these things happen

[cobalt raven]

It...evolved

[errant jackal]

that is clearly a pole

[full ember]

Fake fake pole

[cobalt raven]

IT IS NOW THE KELP OF DEATH

[rain crown]

pole with bad hair day

[cobalt raven]

yas

it got me ;-;

[full ember]

Fake fake real pole

[cobalt raven]

its a mean kelp

[full ember]

Use rock

Rock Beats pole

[cobalt raven]

:00 rainbow!

[errant jackal]

[cobalt raven]

Successfuly killed pole

Found noodles!

I killed the biggest one, now to see if they will hate me forever ;-;

[full ember]

Did you make sure to add hot water?

[cobalt raven]

My slugcat brain is not smart enough to find bowl, forget managing to boil water

forget trying to drag a bowl around 😭

[full ember]

Someone should make this a mod

Cooking mod

[cobalt raven]

NOODLE

The more I play this game the more everything just surprises me or freaks me out

Like, even the slugcat is confused

[topaz flume]

AH, thats a fun bug

[cobalt raven]

the search for the noodles continues

I hope I didn't accidently make them go extinct

uhm

am I supposed to magically gain the ability to fly?

A lizard fell and knocked down a pearl so i have that now

Upside-down headed lizard

[cobalt raven]

The bats like the plant

I threw the plant into the mean grass and the bat dived straight to its death

[topaz flume]

lmao

[long bloom]

A lot of people never figure out what this does either, nice

[cobalt raven]

Lowkey kinda feel bad for killing its family

[rain crown]

what a sentence

[cobalt raven]

it grew up and started a family!

[full ember]

Wow

The circle of life?

[long bloom]

Like

Like a cycle

[full ember]

A… cycle?

[spark valley]

oh wow this is a very cool playthrough

only outskirts and I can already tell it's gonna be good

oh nevermind they are very much past outskirts lol

[long bloom]

they went back to outskirts for more optimal documentation

[edgy juniper]

[cobalt raven]

I think I have most of what I need to know of the noodles

I just want to make sure of the colours

When they grow up they become a lot darker

[cobalt raven]

Remind me to look when I do finish

Random thought about the lizards/reptiles. The ones that live in the outskirts are really "dumb" compared to the rest of the world, like the camouflage lizards and the axolotls. The ones further inwards seem to be more adapted, assuming the Outskirts are the literal edge of the map/world.
What if the lizards aren't originally from here and like migrated inwards and adapted eventually forming different subspecies.

are they...hanging off eachother?

[topaz flume]

Watching the creatures is so fun
Why cant there be a slugcat that doesnt get eaten and we can jsut wtach the wildlife

[cobalt raven]

Watching is fun until you have to find where they are hiding

Why do the noodles have to wander around so much

[cobalt raven]

genuine question btw, is it possible to get up there from down here? Or is there a completely different way?

the roach can fly

[cobalt raven]

dont answer that yet, i just found another area to the outskirts ;-;

found it!

[long bloom]

Very thorough exploration is good

[cobalt raven]

OMG ANOTHER GERTRUDE GOT INTO MY SHELTER

omg thank goodness it's still alive

Another corpse and I will start struggling T-T

Look at those noodles, just chillin

they kind of remind me of hostile humming birds

friend!

Pretty skull

I wonder where this one goes

[errant jackal]

[cobalt raven]

It's still in here 😭

dead :)

Also, random clip from earlier today of a lizard having a crisis

[edgy juniper]

Wow

[topaz flume]

[full ember]

It’s more common than you think

[edgy juniper]

Are you sure?

[full ember]

Yes

Many lizards have crisises

It’s a growing problem in Rain World

High internal crisis rates mean an imbalanced ecosystem

[cobalt raven]

I've seen them do the movement, but not to the point where they were throwing themselves around and bouncing off walls to the point where shaking the screen 😭

[full ember]

Green lizards are incredibly heavy

[cobalt raven]

that explains why they cannot climb

[full ember]

Yup

[errant jackal]

it Really wanted to kill you

[cobalt raven]

threw a tantrum because it couldnt T-T

[errant jackal]

what if it like bounced so high up that it managed to murder you

[rain crown]

the only thing missing from this clip is the lizard randomly launching towards you at mach 10

[cobalt raven]

[errant jackal]

lizard learns # movement (channel has soilers so i Refuse to link it (

[edgy juniper]

) ) )

[full ember]

Uh oh

[bleak zenith]

Woah I scroll up to where you're at and I LIZARD FREAKING OUT

Seems like you've been places

[silver yoke]

For some reasson i thought we were in the first playthrough guide chat and I was like "WAIT DONT STAY HERE THERES SPOILERS"

[bleak zenith]

Lmao

[silver yoke]

I saw that message eaten in real time

lmao

[topaz flume]

@last pawn Do not tell players the names of things if they do not ask for it. Most names are not canon via game text and are community-made anyways

[topaz flume]

[bleak zenith]

What message? /j

[silver yoke]

Wait what was I talking about

[bleak zenith]

Great question man

[silver yoke]

was slugsitt intentionally written with two ts

[rain crown]

i believe so

[silver yoke]

Epic

True and factual

[topaz flume]

Nice

[rain crown]

I've heard "he sitt" as a meme thing before

[bleak zenith]

Interesting

Anyways time to lurk in this thread

[topaz flume]

My firends used to do a similar thing with sip
Sipp

[silver yoke]

[rain crown]

was showing off your drawings to one of the lore chats

they liked em a lot

[glass blaze]

i just read up on everything, i actually really adore this approach

[long bloom]

i'm legitimately surprised this clip didn't end with it flying across the room to instakill you

[stark goblet]

Omg this is such an amazing thread, makes me wish I had gone in blind

But if I hadn't discovered it thru spoilery stuff I likely would never have discovered it at all

[cobalt raven]

A hollow knight streamer once made a video with rainworld, some kind of speedrun. It was that moment I decided to try to avoid as much spoilers as possible so I could one day play it :)

[stark goblet]

Personally it was Skurry

[cobalt raven]

Same here 😭

[cobalt raven]

deep inhale
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

[silver yoke]

[long bloom]

LMAO

I'm glad you're having fun

[cobalt raven]

yes yes

[distant wedge]

Hello! Just wanted to drop in and say that your first playthrough is so cool ! It’s amazing how you’ve managed to figure out so many things on your own, and your journal is really amazing too

[cobalt raven]

Thank ya :D

[cobalt raven]

sneak peak

[cobalt raven]

Noodlefly! Some more context to my second theory/what it's based off of:
||Clownfish are born male and transition to female if the female of their group dies!||

Which should I look at next? Green or pink lizard?

[rain crown]

you actually got the common community name on this one by chance

[cobalt raven]

noodle!

[silver yoke]

This is the ideal rain world playthru

[rain crown]

joar and james would approve

[cobalt raven]

who?

[rain crown]

the main two devs

[cobalt raven]

oohh okay

[edgy juniper]

Neato

[sharp wharf]

I just want to say, wow! Your first playthrough is really neat! I love all the journal entries and your drawings! You are a very good biologist cataloging the life of Rain World lol

[cobalt raven]

Y'all have chosen green guy

[polar sail]

can't make ramen with these? 0/10 unplayable

[cobalt raven]

frrrrrr

[stark goblet]

At long last the noot entry
Devious creatures, I try not to eat them

[cobalt raven]

Bat on a stick

[cobalt raven]

noodle

[stark goblet]

Indeed

[stark goblet]

Mmmmm, ,shishkebab

[cobalt raven]

xD

[stark goblet]

As we should

[cobalt raven]

Time to see what this gate hides

oooooo

woahh

[topaz flume]

Jeezus christ 185 cycles

[cobalt raven]

I dont think i wanna be here anymore but at the same time i am very curious

[edgy juniper]

Yeah, you've been spending a lot of time documenting this stuff huh

[cobalt raven]

I don't like the grass ;-;

[cobalt raven]

mostly just getting lost

[edgy juniper]

Still. 185 cycles-

That's longer than my entire first playthrough

[cobalt raven]

omg sparkly rose, i wanna touch it

OUCHOUCJOCUBCH

[edgy juniper]

I saw that coming

[topaz flume]

[cobalt raven]

ehm

okay, i think i dont want to be here anymore

worm

WHO WAS GONNA TELL ME THERE ARE BIRDS HERE

I NEED EXIT

RIGHT NOW

I NEED OUT

yess grass, get em!

I thank the devs for leaving balloons to make the jumps here easier

shower

run run run little guy!

this pole too? 😭

home sweet home

[stark goblet]

Congratulations you played yoself

I continue to love this thread

[stark goblet]

Dude my 116 cycle playthru is only 18 hrs, how long have you been doing this

[viral copper]

is this all really in your first playthrough? if so, wow

I would've loved to do something like this if I wasnt spoiled for a lot of stuff

[cobalt raven]

I'm on 36 hours 😭

[stark goblet]

Respect omg

You're gonna be here forever

But that's amazing

[edgy juniper]

the best way to play

[cobalt raven]

yeahh, it's gonna take me a while to see everything

[edgy juniper]

I wish I had your patience

[stark goblet]

Me too

[viral copper]

about how many areas have you been to so far? (that you remember)

[stark goblet]

I can barely just appreciate the scenery

[cobalt raven]

Outskirts, Industrial something, garbage wastes, drainage nightmare, filtration/subterraian, shoreline, and uhh

[stark goblet]

You've been to Sub!?

Wrong reply oops

[cobalt raven]

I've enterred farm something and shaded citadel

[cobalt raven]

didnt properly explore

[stark goblet]

Well thats impressive nontheless. good job, intrepid explorer

[viral copper]

honestly just... wow

props to you for this,

[cobalt raven]

I guess I have, pretty sure i have just seen a bit of it

[edgy juniper]

And then went back to Outskirts just to document stuff in a safer environment

[viral copper]

ah yeah, shaded... certainly lives up to its name

[cobalt raven]

so far my favourite creature is the garbage worm

[viral copper]

where'd you enter from?

[stark goblet]

Probably Drainage

[edgy juniper]

Don't say that, if you're wrong it'll be a spoiler.

[stark goblet]

Oop

Apologies

[cobalt raven]

drain ->filter -> subterrain

[viral copper]

fair enough, I always forget they exist (I dont go to garbage wastes often)

[stark goblet]

Nvm we win these
I regret nothing

[cobalt raven]

its no spoiler dw, i just said id been there lol

[edgy juniper]

Well, it could be a spoiler that they connect.

(if you found another way to get there)

[cobalt raven]

all i know is that I HATE THE DRAINS AND THEIR STUPID MAGGOTS

[stark goblet]

Filtration system
Always hated that place

[edgy juniper]

#1 rule of #1269808032276152451: don't assume anything

[rain crown]

a popular sentiment

[viral copper]

I never remember that drainage connects to there, I went to drainage instead of industrial (I got lost for several hours) in my first playthrough, and I think I got scared away by dark tunnels + spoopy red lighting

[stark goblet]

All my homies hate Drainage
The only thing to do there is leave

[cobalt raven]

so true

[rain crown]

@stark goblet please dont vaguepost

[cobalt raven]

dont you go through sub to get to robot person?

[viral copper]

am I really the only one who actually enjoys drainage? its not exactly my favourite area but honestly I don't think its as bad as people say it is

[edgy juniper]

We should probably move this conversation to #vanilla-spoilers or the Coordination Thread if it's going to be spoilery

[stark goblet]

I can't do anything

[rain crown]

it gets exponentially better the more game experience you have

[rain crown]

well, it isnt your thread :^)

you're here to talk about their run

[stark goblet]

Good point

:p

I'll shut up for now
Until I have something to say

[viral copper]

but those guys are really annoying

[cobalt raven]

It's more the fact that I struggle to coordinate sometimes and swimming makes it harder, especially with maggots.
My coordination issues might also be why im still here lol

[viral copper]

the maggots honestly are some of my least favourite creatures in this game, they're just really. really. painful to deal with

[cobalt raven]

Ive always wanted to eat the snails

hmm, they dont look like snails

more like explosive hermit crabs

OH BTW QUESTION (1sec let me find the screenshot)

[cobalt raven]

Okay so those green worms. I suspect that they are the children of the electrical centipedes. I've found them close together but I am unsure

orr

maybe the noodles

because they scream when you grab em

[stark goblet]

The swimming is also just really clunky, at least personally

But I play on controller

[edgy juniper]

I don't think that matters, swimming is hard

[cobalt raven]

I forget how helpful you guys are with your " "

[long bloom]

twice mine

[edgy juniper]

So you think

[cobalt raven]

Get your popcorn supply ready, im not done with this playthrough yet

[topaz flume]

[long bloom]

don't spoil creature names!

[stark goblet]

They've been to shoreline

[long bloom]

they don't know what they're called and have specifically asked to not be told in the past

[topaz flume]

That doesnt mean they know what the name of something is

[stark goblet]

Mmm
I am stupid

[long bloom]

when i accidentally spoiled one

[stark goblet]

[topaz flume]

Also it ruins the fun of people coming up with their own names to add to The Chart™️

[edgy juniper]

Nothing in-game says what the creatures are called

[long bloom]

trueeee

[edgy juniper]

(don't worry I'm collecting the ones in their notes)

[topaz flume]

[cobalt raven]

Speaking of creature names, I have thought of two for when I get to them

[stark goblet]

Yayy
Thats my favorite part

I love the little entries

[cobalt raven]

This one here, the one that looks like a giant mutated axolotl

[long bloom]

~~oh i forgot you found that ~~

[cobalt raven]

it shall either be toe tickler or toe stealer depending how nice it is to me

quick sidetrack

SO THAT'S HOW YOU GET THOSE ROLES

[topaz flume]

Amazing

[long bloom]

you are now monk

[cobalt raven]

MONK CLUB

anyways continuing

[topaz flume]

Wrong emote I wanted lol

[cobalt raven]

And then uhhh

[cobalt raven]

omg i saving that

NOOO IC ANT SAVE IT

ANWYAS

The other creature is this giant see monster typa thing in shoreline

[topaz flume]

Does this work

[long bloom]

yes

[cobalt raven]

ty :3

[cobalt raven]

I very vividly remember that dude SWALLOWING ME in ONE BITE

[topaz flume]

[edgy juniper]

For the icon-less ones, we have in-game challenges you do to earn them. Obviously the rules of the challenges are spoilers for you

[cobalt raven]

I shall name the sea monster...CHOMPER

[stark goblet]

Just eat them

[long bloom]

once you've finished the vanilla scugs you can do server challenges

[stark goblet]

Simple

[cobalt raven]

The day I take down a chomper is the day I will truely have mastered this game

(please tell me its possible)

[edgy juniper]

(Should we?)

[cobalt raven]

(okay maybe not yet, let me get excited and cry when i cant)

[stark goblet]

Any recommendations btw

[cobalt raven]

Question before I do need to head off

When I do finish the survivor, can I continue monk/hunter in this thread or do I have to make a new one?

[long bloom]

You can continue here, yea

[cobalt raven]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1322956288854065162/1326299658552606751/1224645901780521072.gif

[edgy juniper]

You can continue with the Monk/Hunter yeah. If you enable MSC you have to move to #1272670046434492426, though.

[cobalt raven]

what is MSC

[long bloom]

More slugcats

[stark goblet]

More Slugcats!

[long bloom]

The bulk of the dlc

[cobalt raven]

ohh! the downpour

[edgy juniper]

Downpour consists of three mods - MSC, Expedition, and Jolly Co-op. Also sorta the Remix mod, it was made by the same team and added in the same update but it's not behind a paywall.

[cobalt raven]

(my dumbass thought it stood for miscellaneous-first-playthroughs)

Alright! I'm out! See y'all tomorrow!

[rain crown]

personally I think we should use dp as a naming scheme instead of msc but it's whatever 🙄

[errant jackal]

or dlc if we want it to be even more obvious

[rain crown]

the humble watcher DLC:

[errant jackal]

forgot about that

w-first-playthroughs

[edgy juniper]

watcher-first-playthroughs probably is the best

[stark goblet]

Can't wait for it

Never wanted to drop cash as much as I do for that dlc

[dim siren]

Noot noot

[cobalt raven]

noot....noot?

[long bloom]

(People write their death screams as noot noot)

[cobalt raven]

(OHHH makes sense)

[upper oxide]

Just found this thread and. Big fan. Will be watching from now on hehe

[full ember]

The watcher confirmed?

[upper oxide]

Pfft. It is I

[full ember]

Maker of much noise

[stark goblet]

Yappin

Disturbed me from my work

The disturber

[cobalt raven]

[silver yoke]

The watcher reactor

[cobalt raven]

Hi

[cobalt raven]

it's a party

[cobalt raven]

r i p lizard
(making a journey to industrial for some firecracker flowers)

[cobalt raven]

death to lizard

Is it just me or do you really have to spam your spear to kill it?

they be chonky guys

[covert vault]

yup

[cobalt raven]

I wonder if it's the same with all lizards, will have to go on a murder spree to see

[cobalt raven]

You guys really like the green lizard lol

[edgy juniper]

I voted pink

[cobalt raven]

don't worry, I'll do that one soon too :)

[cobalt raven]

Since it's almost my 200th cycle, I have piled some firecracker flowers for celebration

As of right now, the lizards are killing me more than I kill them

[covert vault]

you gonna celebrate 200 cycles by throwing firecrackers? shouldn't you do that at 365 cycles (cuz new year)

[cobalt raven]

nope

[covert vault]

then why did you gather them? just curious.

[cobalt raven]

200 is a big and even hundred number

why not celebrate

[covert vault]

yeah, but, you celebrated by gathering some firecrackers?

[cobalt raven]

Went to the sandbox thing, I cannot stand more dying T-T
So yeah, the green does take more hits to die

[cobalt raven]

why not

[covert vault]

Okay, i just thought there's a reason for why firecrackers. cuz some people use firecrackers to celebrate various holidays

[cobalt raven]

I use bc pretty

[cobalt raven]

Quick drawing before my sister forces me to go on a run with her

[silver yoke]

I don't know if that's all of them, but that's what I have now lol

Once I wanted to show off how cool I thought the interaction system was when walking into entities, but the scavengers had other ideas

[cobalt raven]

Get pinned

I SPOKE TOO SOON

IT ESCAPED

it cannot climb >:)

[cobalt raven]

I think I found another, this one looks like it has mane

[stark goblet]

Crippled 😔

[cobalt raven]

so close

[stark goblet]

Trespassing 🫵

[cobalt raven]

xD

[stark goblet]

Scavengers are like Americans
You don't mess with them

They will mess you up

[cobalt raven]

PFFT

[stark goblet]

They can and will snipe you from off screen

[cobalt raven]

I gave them llike two pearls, they meanies

[stark goblet]

They're a little possessive that's all

The luster of the shinies is a rare virtue

[cobalt raven]

xD

WAIT WHAT

WHY DID THAT SPAWN OUT OF NOWHERE

HELP IM STUCK

omg my spear finally decided to work T-T

[topaz flume]

Ah, ive done that exact glitch in that exact room pre-dlc

Funny, until you have no weapons and are stuck until the rain comes

[cobalt raven]

T-T

Happy 200 cycles!

(Note to future self: The flowers can chain react)

still had fun though lol

[shadow karma]

As with all good New Year’s parties, it ends with you unconscious from an improvised bomb

[cobalt raven]

xD

and of course berry

What does RWSC stand for?

[polar sail]

rain world server challenges

#challenge-info

[cobalt raven]

ooooh okay

[stark goblet]

Good advice fr

[cobalt raven]

Updated instructions! Hope this helps

[stark goblet]

Oml 😭

Would have been funnier if the "shield" was just a lid for the bowl

[cobalt raven]

LOL

[stark goblet]

That's such a way to die tho
Yeeted into a bowl of water and then firecracker'd to death

Slugcat be brutal

[cobalt raven]

(I'm totally not procrastinating drawing the lizards)

[stark goblet]

Take ur time
