Completely Clueless

[ashen coral]

because i can't actually kill anything and nothing can kill me

and because i was shown a rainworld video on the youtube algorithm that started with saying that death doesnt exist

(i stopped watching immediately)

but got spoiled (maybe?) nonetheless

the gravity tube is cool tho

to re-acclimatize you to newton's laws

oh the sassy robot lady changed the icons

that's... cool i guess

it put me back at the top of the level chart... thing

i like that i'm not in the sewers anymore

nevermind i guess

BIBLICALLY ACCURATE RAINWORLD

[ashen coral]

i love becoming literate in space

[fringe token]

“if you were forced to work with someone you HATED what would you do” i don’t hate anyone in this server

[blissful mulch]

They aren't that difficult

[fringe token]

yes they ARE

[blissful mulch]

There's your answer then!

[fringe token]

i am NOT putting that

[blissful mulch]

Let's move to the coord thread to talk abt this shall we?

[fringe token]

might as well just put for all of them

good idea

[ocean bone]

i am now obligated to ask for your lore theories!! mwahaha

[ocean bone]

he has a lot of work to do at his north pole workshop

[ashen coral]

oh

bibically accurate santa real?

[ocean bone]

(this is a joke)

[ashen coral]

some robot librarian who organizes knowlage to try to figure out how to make death (life sucks i guess)

[ashen coral]

ghost of the creator of sassy robot librarian

[ashen coral]

:(

[ocean bone]

ooh cool theories

thank for making theories

[ashen coral]

these areas go hard

[ashen coral]

i got spoiled for a lot of it

like what the cycle is

youtube knows all

and has smited me

[ashen coral]

what if i just jumped

i wonder if i can talk to scavengers now

are they intelegent?

they have communities

[ocean bone]

[ashen coral]

oh

huh

it was from the guy who talked about Marble Hornets

Ayden Makes Things

i really want to watch it but it totally has spoilers

[fringe token]

crazy

anyways back to rainworld

should i do it or keep decending the wall

also i hit cycle 70

imma do it ive got a grenade

[ocean bone]

watching your game is lots of fun

[ashen coral]

i can stream it now if you want

i just got demolished by the rain because i couldn't find a single safe room in the entire area

[ocean bone]

happens sometimes

[ocean bone]

i dont hav mic

[ocean bone]

im poorly equippedium

[ashen coral]

i dont use mine either so it's fine

we can just chill

I don't have long today tho

not much time left

[ocean bone]

sadge

dont think i should for now then, keep playing your game while u can

[ashen coral]

ok

apparently i died too much so yellow guy came back to hold my hand

and he showed me that apparently i wasn't supposed to go down

weird but ok i guess

sky islands

fall islands

back to the safe room

blew myself up with a grenade

and fell in a hole

back to the safe room

these jumps are hard

speaking of jumps, this game has been jumpscaring me so hard

I ran into a white lizard and physically jumped, throwing my grenade and killing us both (like, metaphorically or smth)

ooo pretty

huh

wat

is rainbow

what i cant say the funny color arch looks cool

i thought there would be something cool up here

guess not

i managed to kill a white lizard, a vulture, and myself all with the same grenade

i went flying offscreen like a gmod ragdoll

[ocean bone]

object

an entity

the thing

[ashen coral]

3 bats

very cute

anyways this is where i sign off

its late

ill play tmr i hope

bye

oh i made it to 11

[ashen coral]

what're the rules for streaming?

The channels all have names based on areas from the arena

does that have any merit on what can happen in them, or are they all just

empty channels

[unique arch]

they're just channel names

you can use any one of them

[unique arch]

and for streaming rules, you can check #vc-rules

[ashen coral]

So as long as I don’t play inappropriate games I’m fine?

sick

[unique arch]

yeah

[ashen coral]

i have acquired a straw hat

it goes well with my satchel

lets go

i love this area

i climbed a pole, ran straight into a white lizard, threw a rock at it, fell to a lower platform, and it fell off the cliff and died

lets go

[unique arch]

looking like a wanderer from a far away land

[unique arch]

i love hitting creatures with rocks so they fall

it's absolutely hilarious

[ashen coral]

No I didn’t hit it

I threw the rock in the wrong direction and the lizard just fell after it

I love how stupid they are

[unique arch]

lizard imagined being hit

and died

that's even worse

[plucky breach]

i love ur scug

[plucky breach]

lmfao

[lusty tartan]

milk felper arc

[ashen coral]

What

[unique arch]

[ashen coral]

Voices of the Void

It’s a free game

Not on steam

But I’ve been playing that recently

When I get back home I’ll switch back to Rainworld

[ocean bone]

What do they sound like and what are they saying

[ashen coral]

Sounds like static screams
Saying that everyone is dead everyone is dead everyone is dead everyone is dead

[ashen coral]

And “help us”

And “it is everywhere”

And “everyone is dead”

[plucky breach]

that's kinda grim

maybe they should eat some ice cream i think that could cheer them up

[ashen coral]

Well it’s a game about signals from space

I think it’s a horror game but it’s more of a “do your job” simulator with occasional cool events

[ocean bone]

That'll cheer them up

[fringe token]

very interesting concept

i can see how that could be very neat

[ashen coral]

It’s in pre-alpha but completely open to the public

I’ve got a link one sec

https://mrdrnose.itch.io/votv?download

[sweet pilot]

Voice sof the void mention

appears

Hello hi :3

[ashen coral]

Howdy

Is good game

So is Rainworld

[ocean bone]

voices of the rain

[ashen coral]

Rain in the Void

[ocean bone]

world of the rain

[ashen coral]

Voidworld

[ashen coral]

Why can’t I find this by searching anymore

Weird
Maybe it timed out or smth

[ocean bone]

This thread?

[ashen coral]

yeah

[ocean bone]

Yeah it's a discord thing

If anthread is inactive for like a few days it will be hidden

[ashen coral]

4 player is tons of fun

I honestly wish I recorded it

Fighting over the camera led to a lot of deaths

But on easy mode it’s all good

We did go to two different wrong areas and ended up making basically no progress

But it was fun

[ocean bone]

Single screen 4 player??? Dang sounds painful

Probably a fairly decent way to balance 4p

[fiery raft]

it takes a while to get used to but when you get used to the camera switching it work pretty well.
jolly is a lot of fun
(unless youre playing normal or hard mode
thats pretty bad)

[ashen coral]

We did not get used to switching 😭

There was much yelling

[fiery raft]

it really takes quite a while...
i played a lot with two other people a longer time ago and at the start there was a lot of yelling and arguing as well.
but later we kind of just developed strategies and it went better.

[ashen coral]

Well we might be able to play again sometime
The other 3 players are all brothers so

[ashen coral]

Also what was more painful was the setup
So
-Laptop on the floor
-TV mirroring the laptop on the wall behind it
-two Xbox controllers hooked up to either port
-one Bluetooth Nintendo controller
I was on the floor on the keyboard
It was jank as hell

[fiery raft]

setting up jolly is hell
yeah... i can feel your pain...

[ashen coral]

I had to rush too
I was going to have a wired keyboard but I couldn’t find the adapter, and I had to change out the tv-to-laptop cable to get it to work
Honestly worth it though

[sinful gate]

Jolly is always funny

I've never gone above 2 players tho

Smart pipe outlets is always helpful to have

Players get a little extra time to organise and move through to next room together

[fiery raft]

you use the smart pipe outlets?

[sinful gate]

They're good

[fiery raft]

i disagree (i honestly hate them)
im curious what makes them good if you have some interesting points?

[sinful gate]

It largely sums up to the sentence l gave (it lessens the annoying issue of the sudden camera switching and facilitates everyone moving through together)

And has no drawbacks that come to mind

Things like pipejuking aren't harder or more risky with it

[fiery raft]

but it makes things slower.
but the fact juking is fine is new info for me.
anytime i had it on i really didnt like it.

[sinful gate]

Things will be slow regardless with jolly coop haha

It's that saying of "chain is only as strong as its weakest link"

[fiery raft]

depends on the players

[blissful mulch]

I'm on this side, Smart pipes is HORRIBLE

[sinful gate]

You're not actually saving any net time if the slowest player still is at the same spot, no matter how many rooms ahead the fastest player has sped through

[fiery raft]

oh. but that then depends which mode you are on.
if youre using easy you can simply sacrifice a player if worst comes to worst

[sinful gate]

The smart pipe effect goes away if the other player's died l think

[fiery raft]

what does categorize as 'dead' tho?

[blissful mulch]

It does not in fact

[fiery raft]

dead dead?
or snatched is enough?

[sinful gate]

But yeah l can figure why it'll vary for player number and difficulty mode

Sad, l mandela effected myself then if true

Welp, for me it's 2 players + easy mode combo

And our experience's been pretty smooth so far

[fiery raft]

I have played 2 players +easy mode.
both me and my friend hate the smart shortcuts. we always use vanilla shortcuts.

[sinful gate]

Sure but l bet the tradeoff is a lot of yelling at each other when the cameras leave you

[fiery raft]

but i guess it ends up just being up to the people who play with it.
if you're enjoying it with smart shortcuts then thats all that matters

[fiery raft]

actually no

[sinful gate]

Unless you've gotten splitscreen

[fiery raft]

we tried... didnt end well

[sinful gate]

I'm on the fence with splitscreen

Haven't tried it yet

On one hand would be supposedly helpful in practice

On the other it really hinders gameplay to only have half a screen of view

[fiery raft]

yeah.

[sinful gate]

Offscreen enemy jumpscaring

[fiery raft]

from my experience it isnt worth it as much

[sinful gate]

As well as needing the full view of a room to plan the parkour

[fiery raft]

also if i remember right the mod we used crashed a bunch of times

[sinful gate]

It tracks you, right?

Like sbcamerascroll style

[fiery raft]

it was too long ago
i dont remember anymore

[sinful gate]

And sbcamerascroll is just as unstable and prone to tantrum

[fiery raft]

yeah it is

but I still stand by the fact that if you enjoy smart shortcuts then thats all that matters.

[sinful gate]

And vice versa if they don't fit your playstyle

[ashen coral]

I turn them on and then use the jump button to move ahead early anyways because I don’t care for my friends’s lives

:)

[ashen coral]

When the eyes are crossed out?
But the camera can still follow them…

[warm fractal]

Rain world has like 4 ways of tracking if you're dead, and it sometimes leads to buggy results.

[ashen coral]

If I want to use the dlc slug cats in base game multiplayer would I have to move to the other playthrough channel?

[blissful mulch]

well, do you have MSC enabled?

[blissful mulch]

Obligatory reply ping

[ocean bone]

I'd say yes he should move regardless

[ashen coral]

Huh?

[ashen coral]

Purchased but not installed

[ashen coral]

I do not understand

[ocean bone]

id think you should move to the #1272670046434492426 category wether or not you have downpour enabled, when your using downpour scugs

[sweet pilot]

MSC is not vanilla so yes

[ashen coral]

Oh okay I haven’t used them yet but I will do that once I do

[ashen coral]

Wait downpour was fan made?

[sweet pilot]

Yes

[sinful gate]

It started development as a fan mod and they were hired to publish it as an officially endorsed dlc

[ashen coral]

Awesome

[sinful gate]

The Watcher has the original devs involved again but it too has a lot of modders hired for it and a lot of fan content making guest appearances

[ashen coral]

[ashen coral]

So I’m in an area with a lot of pipes and floating platforms

There are lots of vultures and lizards and one pole plant

I need to get more food so I can hibernate but I can’t find anywhere to get a lot of it

[ashen coral]

https://youtu.be/L1iY_G3fSpY

Also does this contain spoilers

It does nvm

Had a warning

[sick elbow]

Highly reccomend rain meadows mod

If its online couch co-op thru steam anyways

Lets players host a server and play together with their own cameras

Otherwise there is also a splitscreen mod

[ashen coral]

Yeah I found out about rainmeadow when I went to the DMS server to ask for help

If I can actually get my friends to play with me I will

[ashen coral]

Is having a spear on your back part of the Hunter playthrough or something

[unique arch]

you'll find out once you get there

[ashen coral]

The area has big columns that you have to traverse around

I don’t know the name

Ahh wait no
I fricked it up

Maybe it works on pc

But it sure doesn’t on mobile

[unique arch]

somewhat works for me

on mobile

[ashen coral]

It’s like they’re long tho right?

[unique arch]

it took me so long to realize that was an image

[ocean bone]

ASCII art!!!!!!!!!

[ashen coral]

wawa

[unique arch]

they don't seem to have an issue with people making fan merch so you should be fine as long as you're not using other people's art without permission

[ashen coral]

Hmmmmm

I suck hard ass at drawing

Uhhhh

Guess I’ll practice

[unique arch]

you may be able to ask an artist if you want

[ashen coral]

maybe...

Imma sleep on it

[ashen coral]

uhhhh Ignore my artists role uhhhhhhhhhhhh

[ocean bone]

real

[ashen coral]

Made this
Any pointers

The legs are weird but I had to do it from memory

[fringe token]

better than anything i could do

[ashen coral]

Ty

[ashen coral]

Oh also I just bought Watcher

I have aquired the trifecta

[ashen coral]

I'm not installing it tho

just wanted to have it

[ocean bone]

i have not heard of rain world

[wanton escarp]

i'm very late, read everything, but thanks for the playthrough this is very entertaining

as for controls i used to play with the joypad from an Ultimate 2C from 8bitdo, for several hundreds of hours of rain werld

now i use d-pad from a tarentula lite from gamesir and clearly this is a game changer

so much more precision

anyway if you stick with gamepads i suggest trying to find a good d-pad

best of luck in your rainworldeavours

[blissful mulch]

Another d-pad user

[sinful gate]

The dpad cult arises

[ashen coral]

Oh

Uh

I use keyboard

[blissful mulch]

Then use arrow keys

[fiery raft]

why arrow keys?

[wanton escarp]

keyboard is cool too !

i might try some runs with keyboard later, i have a rainy 75

there is rain in the name so it should be good for rain world

[blissful mulch]

Because that's the d-pad of keyboard

[ashen coral]

Do they sell Rainworld notebooks? I think that’d be cool

Like

But Rainworld

[warm fractal]

It would... not sure.

[ashen coral]

Why is this so long

[wanton escarp]

i would buy one

[unique arch]

they seem to have some on redbubble, just make sure you're buying from artists who made the design and not people who stole them

most of them are spiral bound though

and some spoilers here and there

if you were asking about officially though, no unfortunately

[ashen coral]

oh

well redbubble is cool i suppose

I'll go look

[ashen coral]

How would I check this

[ashen coral]

https://www.redbubble.com/i/notebook/Slugcat-in-the-fog-by-sonoyang/155402763.F3GM3

[unique arch]

usually if you go to the seller's profile if they're selling stuff with a similar artstyle it's a good sign

you can look up their username too just in case

[unique arch]

no spiral bound nice

[ashen coral]

Oof
Uh
They all kinda seem
Really different

[sick elbow]

hmm the female shirt doesnt get an overseer because uhhh... she is the overseer :P

[ashen coral]

this keeps popping up and i'm getting annoyed

nvm i figured it out

[ashen coral]

I like the "entities in den" mod

with the custom sleep screens

I've heard of drop bugs before but the one I found was pretty easy to kill

[ashen coral]

I could stream

Hmm

[ashen coral]

look what I got

the mask

i got the mask

[wanton escarp]

did not even see this was possible to see it on this screen x)

[ashen coral]

👆

[bleak cave]

So a lot of questions guy

This game is made to be figured out yourself unless completely stuck

Atleast I found it the hard way by these guys telling me almost nothing

But eventually you'll learn it

Just try different things and you'll figure it out

[blissful mulch]

We... do tell people things? It's just only when they are fully stuck and are obviously frustrated

[sinful gate]

If we don't tell you something it's because it is still fully capable for you to discover it yourself with some effort

[bleak cave]

Yeah kinda that

[bleak cave]

Tell me one thing im no capable of doing

Which is throwing spears down

I spent an entire cycle with multiple spears and a big room to see how can you throw it down

Backflips, backflips with down, different speeds, different angles

Ive tried everything

Still couldn't throw it down

[sinful gate]

One of those things you listed is correct though?

[bleak cave]

Yes

Backflips

[sinful gate]

So you did find the solution

[bleak cave]

No

I cannot throw it down

It only throws in the direction of backflip

Your name kinda sounds like an desease no offense

[sinful gate]

[ashen coral]

You backflip then hold down and press throw while backflipping
I was able to do it in a safe room

I only have this but you don’t need to slide first I think they were showing off

Actually it kinda looks like it’s easier from sliding…

Hm

[ashen coral]

I GOT THE CHIEFTAIN LETS GOOOOOOO

[ashen coral]

I presume that Mr. Vergil has finished the game since they’re in other playthrough threads

Oh wait no that’s from that hitman game

I thought that was Vergil

Mb

[ocean bone]

Masterchieftain

[ashen coral]

Master Chief, what are you doing in that Rain World?

Sir,

Befriending the Scavs

[ocean bone]

I make halo references a lot but it's a really good game!!!!

[ashen coral]

Do I lose the Chieftain buffs if I use the teleport

[ashen coral]

2 discoveries

1. I do not believe Push to Meow interacts with other creatures in any way, unlike the point from Jolly Co-op

2. The mod I have that displays items in the rest screen does not display entities

Or at least not Scavs

One orange guy was particularly scared and decided to have a slumber party at my place

[fringe token]

direct answer ||no||

[fringe token]

and this is an entirely different tech from backflipping

[ashen coral]

I mean the throwing down part isn’t

But apart from that yeah

[ashen coral]

I should mention that once the back flip starts you can let go of the buttons

It’ll keep going on its own
I mean if you get up and jump in the air, you’ll finish the jump no matter what you do in the air (besides grabbing something but don’t do that that’s a bad idea)

[bleak cave]

In monk?

[unique arch]

i love and hate when they do this

there is a sleep screen art mod with lizards if you'd want one with creatures

don't know if there's a scav one though

[wanton escarp]

push to meow is very game changing, you can test it on lizard behaviour, dll and even scavs and see how they react ^^

i still use it nonetheless

[lusty tartan]

Don't explain the mechanics to the player like that, you might accidentally spoil them. Let them find it out on their own

[bleak cave]

||The down thing?||

Alr

[ashen coral]

I’ve spoiled myself more than any of you have, don’t worry
I’m bad enough that it hasn’t even ruined my progression, I’m still incredibly terrible in some areas

[ashen coral]

So it does interact with them?

Weird, I couldn’t get a response out of the scavs

[ashen coral]

And if you mean me spoiling it, I was pretty sure that they’d beaten the game already

[ashen coral]

Survivor

[ashen coral]

It was cute when I woke up and they were hugging me like a teddy bear bc they were afraid of the door opening

[wanton escarp]

it does ^^

[ashen coral]

Awesome

I’ll make sure to meow more ig

[wanton escarp]

ok !

it might be subtle sometimes but there is en effect

[ocean bone]

u need to go to pebbles and annoy him by spamming meow

[ashen coral]

Ohhh I would’ve too

[ashen coral]

Crazy

Got max karma too

[bleak cave]

YOU KILLED AN VULTURE????????? WHERE

[blissful mulch]

Please go to your own thread

[bleak cave]

Alr

[blissful mulch]

Or make one

[bleak cave]

:3

[bleak cave]

I have with a over exaggerating name called SOMETHING BIG HAPPENED

[blissful mulch]

We also try to avoid directly mentioning creature names

You aren't in trouble or anything though

[ashen coral]

It’s like my 3rd or 4th

[ashen coral]

Yeah like water striders

[blissful mulch]

Water strider???

I might know what you're talking about but that's certainly a name I've never heard

[ashen coral]

I call the ||jetfish|| that bc I saw one literally dancing across the water towards me

[blissful mulch]

Oh

[ashen coral]

I couldn’t find the messages but I used to call them that before I learned what they were called

Still a funni name

[bleak cave]

I called them octopus

🐙

[wanton escarp]

i call them the ||squiddolphins||

[ashen coral]

I ended up back in Industrial Complex

I have no idea where to go

Where are the farm arrays

WHAT IS THAT
WHY IS IT IN OUTSKIRTS

[void solstice]

Go touch it 😁

[ashen coral]

No I already left

[void solstice]

Fair enough

[wanton escarp]

normal outskirts stuff :p

[ashen coral]

Scawy

[void solstice]

Its safe dw

[ashen coral]

so I got the scholar
And I have no idea why

Oh also I found out that if you don’t use the passage thing and your rep with the scavs goes down (I was trying to save one from a vulture and accidentally killed them) you lose both the achievement and the passage option

[ashen coral]

It didn’t do anything when I got eaten by a pole plant and threw it so

[wanton escarp]

maybe it does things, maybe it does not

[bleak cave]

You ended up from where?

Try to remember what pebbles told you to go

In

[bleak cave]

Yeah

Don't kill scavs, or they'll kill you, rain world ecosystem

[ashen coral]

Well I’m going west

I got the chieftain back again

Went through a toll

Gave them a mask and two spears
I gave them that red thing too but they didn’t seem to want it so i left it just to be safe

[ashen coral]

Bro I’m going west I’m already out of outskirts

[bleak cave]

So where are you going currently

[ashen coral]

West

That’s like to the left correct

[bleak cave]

Yes, but where exactly

What area

[wanton escarp]

west is gud

[bleak cave]

Farm arrays is where pebbles told it

[ashen coral]

Idk it hasn’t popped up yet

[bleak cave]

Huh

[ashen coral]

Which is west

[bleak cave]

Left

[wanton escarp]

yeah that and hole

[ashen coral]

No I was saying that Farm Arrays is to the left

[bleak cave]

What hasn't popped up? Like are you just going in an direction in outskirts without knowing where you'll go?

[ashen coral]

I went left bro idk

Isn’t that like the whole game

[bleak cave]

In outskirts?

[ashen coral]

Yeah

[bleak cave]

Hmm

May I give a hint?

If you want

[ashen coral]

There’s actually only one gate in outskirts that has you go right to left when you leave

I’m pretty sure I’m going the right way

[bleak cave]

Umm

[wanton escarp]

i suggest you continue to explore

[bleak cave]

Uhh ok, listen to your instincts ig

[ashen coral]

Bro left is left

[bleak cave]

Let him explore

Yeah but

Pebbles west is based on the entire map

[wanton escarp]

this is literally what i just said bro

[bleak cave]

But go to ||drainage system|| if you want

[ashen coral]

Even the other one to the far left of outskirts, the one that leads to the garbage patch or whatever, has you go left to right through the gates

[bleak cave]

Oops

[ashen coral]

That one
I’ve been there and I don’t want to

[sweet pilot]

Please dont assume where other players are going or what they should be doing

[bleak cave]

Thats all

[ashen coral]

I am going left

[bleak cave]

Alr

Ask if you get stuck

[ashen coral]

👌

[bleak cave]

Currently im stuck somewhere, help

In something big happened ig

Post

[blissful mulch]

Don't tell people how to play the game please

[ashen coral]

I'm getting the controllable rain deer mod

these morons are stupid

i got it

yippee

[wanton escarp]

gratz

[bleak cave]

True ;-;

[ashen coral]

Ohhhhh so the rain deer area is farm arrays

Ok

Well going left worked then

The mod doesn’t do much when the rain deer don’t show up for an entire frickin cycle

THIS AREA

AAAAAAAA

I finally got on one and thanks to the mod it went fine
But it took so long to get on one that by the time I get to the other side the rain is starting and there’s just no rest area whatsoever

What is this design

“What should we do for this area in our game where the player has a limited amount of time to get from place to place? Oh, I know! Let’s make an area where their entire survival is dependent on the slowest, jankiest creature with the worst Ai in the whole game? Wouldn’t that be FUN”

[sweet pilot]

As Joar says, everything except the deer ai being bad is canon

:)

[ashen coral]

•.)

I went through a tube and came out with a long glitched red tongue thing attached to me

2 questions
Is the rain deer section mandatory
And does throwing a spear in midair give you more boost than a rock

[sick elbow]

1. nothing is mandatory but i do reccomend getting the deer to work as its absolutely worth it (such cool vibes)
2. not afaik but it does let u grab it if you throw it at the end and it sticks in the wall

[ashen coral]

Oh yeah I keep forgetting to turn on my music

But also I’m trying to jump across the large sea of red danger grass

[sinful gate]

Playing rw without the music is incredibly evil especially when the audio is mandatory for some gameplay

[wanton escarp]

chaotic evil vibes

[sick elbow]

honestly i think a lot of games you shouldnt disable the music, its a part of the core experience, even if just to set the mood. (and if it isnt part of the core experience the game shouldnt have music in the first place).

otherwise you get this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6Ron-Ikenfc

[wanton escarp]

yeah

but for each their own i guess

some people cant stand any music

[bleak cave]

Well I didn't knew it was from ||outskirts|| as well, I got there from ||sky islands|| personally which is ||up in the map||

[bleak cave]

The deer always ran in the opposite direction of where I wanted to go, wasting many of my cycles

[bleak cave]

No, but if you are in farm arrays then yes

[ashen coral]

There’s a mod that I got that lets you control the deer, and there’s an in-game mechanic to mounting them
It’s having them show up in the first place that’s the problem

[ashen coral]

Yeah I tried going through ||Sky Islands|| but I kept dying so I went down instead to ||Industrial||

[ashen coral]

Rate the scug guys

[bleak cave]

Sky islands is a fucking war zone, atleast in a specific area I have been to

[ashen coral]

Speaking of war zones, on the cycle I got this it literally was a war zone
When I left my shelter all the scavs were dead and the white lizor already had a spear in it. I used one of the dropped explosive spears to kill the vulture too

[unique arch]

free kills at least

[unique arch]

texas/10

a slugcar the size of texas

[ashen coral]

I think it helped me get that scholar achievement but I’m really not sure

No clue how I got it

[unique arch]

definitely something to experiment with later

[ashen coral]

[ashen coral]

Wawa

[ocean bone]

Wa Wa

[bleak cave]

I couldn't do anything because if I did then I would have lowered my reputation with everyone 😭

[sinful gate]

Attracting them to your location is something doable ingame too like the other things it just has a dab of inconsistency

[sweet pilot]

Dont give info that isnt asked for

[sick elbow]

oh

[ashen coral]

That’s what I meant by in-game mechanic to mounting yeah

[ashen coral]

I made it to the end of the farm arrays

The rain deer path wasn’t really that bad

In other news apparently Perry the Platypus is Asexual

Ooo it’s called “subterranean”
Cool

[ashen coral]

If the yellow guy stops showing up am I going the wrong way

Can I assume as much

[warm fractal]

Maybe. He might have his own goals.

[ashen coral]

Well yeah I know that but I’m lost in this new area and shelters are surprisingly spread out

Or I’m just stupid

I’m probably just stupid

[unique arch]

well, where are you?

oh wait

you just said

what guidance did you follow to get there then?

[ashen coral]

They said go west and go down

So I went west

And I am struggling to go down

But Mr observer seems to have left me to die

[plucky breach]

rude much

maybe he just like believes in you

[ashen coral]

[unique arch]

[unique arch]

bully

[ashen coral]

I’ll let yall know when I get past the trains

[sinful gate]

Can't get more Down than underground

[ashen coral]

AAAAAAGH I HATE THIS

I can watch like halfway through a video on Rainworld

Love it

And be unable to finish it because of the spoilers!

This happens EVERY TIME

guh

[ocean bone]

You'll have to play through the actual game so that you can see it

[ashen coral]

Yeah

[plucky breach]

THATS WHAT I HAD

when i first got introduced to rainworld i was obsessed but refrained from interacting with any of it including watching videos bc of spoilers

[sinful gate]

Rainworld content is INCREDIBLY addictive.

[plucky breach]

its true

its so fun to watch

[ashen coral]

Yes

Does anyone have suggestions for relaxing Rainworld tracks for me to add to my “relax & read” playlist

[plucky breach]

have uuu

i have a few

[ashen coral]

Games can be so mysterious when you have no idea what they’re about
Especially if you get a taste of the soundtracks
It seems like something unfathomable by mortal man

[plucky breach]

its true

[ashen coral]

Do tell

[plucky breach]

im collecting....

ones that you probably have already heard

[ashen coral]

I’m not confused it just has a question mark

[ashen coral]

Probably

[plucky breach]

have u been. everywhere.... . .

have u been to SC

also what service do u use for music

[ashen coral]

I have made it just past the farm arrays and am working my way down

Am at trains

And I use Amazon Music because preexisting circumstances mean I get to use it free without ads

It has most tracks

I can find them if you send like the YouTube version

[ashen coral]

I don’t know the abbreviations

I have in fact been to Slug Cat

And always am at Slug Cat

Am slug cat

[plucky breach]

oh uhm

like if you are in rainworld and go to regions itll like show the regions uve been into

[ashen coral]

I’ll check as soon as I can

[plucky breach]

[ashen coral]

It doesn’t have to be just those 3 if yall have suggestions I’m open to them

[ocean bone]

The Exterior (of what? I still don’t know (I want to tho))
hmm...
||well, what areas is it next to? where to the gates go? can you list them all||

[plucky breach]

the exterior is called that bc its my backyard

[ocean bone]

true

[ashen coral]

Five pebbles maybe? I don’t have a good memory of the map or of that area, i got through it pretty fast

[ashen coral]

I’m still looking for more songs. I’m open to suggestions outside of Rainworld too.

I already added Timber Hearth

It’s pretty good

[wanton escarp]

Lena Rain musics

Outer Wilds ones

[ashen coral]

Yeah, Timber Hearth

[wanton escarp]

yup indeed

good people listen to good music from good video games and play rain world

[ashen coral]

[ashen coral]

Lena Raine World

Ohhhh I never realized that Lena did both Minecraft and Celeste

Dang

There was a collab between Lena Raine and someone called Super Strikers and I thought it was from a video game but it was just a concept album

Atolm Dragon

[wanton escarp]

and Chicory

[wanton escarp]

now i want someone to ask her to make a music for rain world

[unique arch]

it would be peak

[plucky breach]

if u want some ambient stuff u could check out tim hecker

but its kind of uhm

like ethereal but in a somber way

i personally absolutely love it and it makes me feel calm but it could also just make u feel sad

most of it is very abstract but one i could reccomend is "harmony in blue I"

from Harmony in ultraviolet

[ashen coral]

Is very cool

[ashen coral]

Can I use the scavbot ai in here or is there a channel for that

[unique arch]

#misc-pan-chat allows bot commands

it's been so long since i've done !porl

[ashen coral]

Made it to the depths

Glad there’s no rain down here

[ocean bone]

deep

[wanton escarp]

very deep

[unique arch]

and dark

[ashen coral]

Darker

Yet darker

[wanton escarp]

and also deep

[ashen coral]

his/her/their head is so slippery

[ashen coral]

I know this because I have repeatedly attempted to jump on their head

[wanton escarp]

they look like a block indeed

[ashen coral]

man great area love how I can't see anything at all whatsoever

[wanton escarp]

why see when we can feel

[ashen coral]

How long do I have to swim through this void for

This is undertale geno route levels of boring

Been in here for over 10 minutes

[sweet pilot]

Where are you here

[ashen coral]

What

Wdym

I’m in the void with infinite copies of myself

[sweet pilot]

ok

Follow the light

[ashen coral]

The huh

The light is above me tho

And it said go down

Huh

Is there supposed to be a way to know to go towards the light

[sweet pilot]

Its the only other thing there besides you :p
The worm brought you down as far as it decided you needed

[ashen coral]

I did it

Ascension yay

I’ll upload my 20 minutes of downwards swimming to YouTube and send it here

What happens if I continue

Also can I watch videos now is that all the game stuff besides Hunter

And Monk ig

And the dlc

s

The DLCs

[blissful mulch]

Congrats! Welcome to the 11%

[wanton escarp]

Congrats !

[unique arch]

congrats on finishing survivor!!

[unique arch]

find out

what're you planning on doing now though??

[wanton escarp]

yeah beside the 90% of everything else this is the only 10% of your survivor campaign the game has to offer

[unique arch]

even with my hundreds of hours i still haven't done everything rw has to offer

[ashen coral]

Well I do have like every dlc for the game so

I started Hunter but a cycle limit doesn’t seem like a lot of fun

[ashen coral]

Oh yeah I sent this then lost internet on my computer

Guess it just came back

[unique arch]

piss pool

[unique arch]

so i'm guessing downpour likely next

...or monk

[sick elbow]

monk is great after a tough dlc scug/hunter as a difficulty detox imo

[ocean bone]

Yooo good job now play hunter

[blissful mulch]

Gonna have to explode this as it's DLC content

[wanton escarp]

ono sorry

i dont even remember what i did say x)

can you dm me with what i said, i would not like doing the same mistake again

[blissful mulch]

Here I'll ping you in The Thread

[vestal oriole]

lol i spent so muh time diving down without realizing i have to follow the light 😭

[ashen coral]

20 minutes man

So I think I’m going to make a new thread and install Downpour

(Might start by playing Hunter just so it’s in order idk)

And I can link it here

Besides, I hear the base game is the best part, what with the survivor, monk and hunter fitting so well into the environment

And that it goes downhill a bit with Downpour (superpowers) and even more so with Watcher (there is no environment)

[wanton escarp]

i can confirm i have been ping successfully in the thread

[wanton escarp]

[wanton escarp]

dem spoily are spoiling

[ashen coral]

It’s literally community made it would be weird if they didn’t have superpowers

I mean one of them is just really fat but my point stands

https://discord.com/channels/291184728944410624/1402452098603286548

[unique arch]

downpour!!

[unique arch]

the community is... very split on watcher

hopefully you'll like it when you get to it though (plus it'll likely be finished by then)

[ashen coral]

Well I mean when most of the debates are on whether or not it’s real…

But yeah hope it’ll be finished

[blissful mulch]

Plus it'll likely be on consoles thus granting water a lot more content

[ashen coral]

Fun!

[ocean bone]

But downpour is amazing brroooooo

[spiral sinew]

matter of opinion really
they are different, I wouldn't say one is necessarily better than the other

[ocean bone]

true

[warm fractal]

I would disagree a bit. While Downpour is a bit different from Vanilla, everyone who survived Vanilla had fun with Downpour, even if it was a bit different, while Watcher... wasn't really fun to play for a lot of people. It also doesn't deliver well on the premise of a more vanilla or classic experience, that was mentioned.
That's all I am going to say.

[wanton escarp]

we need a scug named the splitter

same as Cas also

[unique arch]

it's good to mention it did feel like a classic experience for others though hence the fact the community being kind of split over watcher. i really notice more of a comparison to not being like downpour rather than vanilla

i don't think it's good to bring too much of our own opinions into this when it comes to the dlcs though, he'll form his own once he gets to it because some of those points really depend on the player

[unique arch]

what would their abilities be

[wanton escarp]

he splits atoms

[unique arch]

devtools slugcar

[wanton escarp]

some day ill make some mods
