it's agony to traverse but it would be less cool if it wasn't there sooo
I did!! 
it is good for the worldbuilding but its not fun
which he does very often so
FARM ARRAYS!!!
skill issue
I didn't-
ok i can understand stumbling upon drainage but how did you get past the scav toll again
its boooriing
the thing that makes Five Pebbles not fun is the lack of creatures, not the zero-gravity
both honestly
there's just the Mass
Omg it's my Monksilly cube gif sped up
ITS ALL BOOORING, but hey the region looks pretty
which, granted, is a pretty good zero-gravity creature, but, y'know
i will not accept hype and lore region slander
not an ecosystem™
throw pearl experimentally
walk past them
so hating on Five Pebbles gameplay is valid I think
Because the game says so
it's all the Mass
Mass entity
mass walls
mass ceilings
mass floors
I think it's less about the creatures and more about the platforming
the scav toll is like genuinely there to stop a newbie from going that way
the parkour
yeah
I thought they were just rocks when I still had 200 hours in this game
IMHO Rain World is always at it's worst when it's "about the platforming"
true
Ig I was just lied to
How does this even happen
!!!!!
the parkour is fun when you have the swingworm
and
and uh
um
uhhhh
the fun part of the game is the ecosystems, it's really hard to make something fun in Rain World without creatures
Well, yeah. But there are also creatures in that area 
kinda
I did find that gate first
but I like
forgot about it and went elsewhere
i dont think id be interested in rw if it didnt have that movement system though
well i would be but
its all of it that makes it fun
creatures are a big part of course
You haven't seen this thread yet
?
Back read it all!!!
oh right I forgot most(?) people don't have the swingworm in five pebbles
and this isnt me talking about tech or anything but just how it feels
rain world players are used to gatekeepers (the game itself)
movement should support the ecosystem simulation but not replace it
oh I was talking about there being creatures in the Leg / Underhang
of course the main selling point of rain world are the creatures with their beautiful ai
so yea
Yeah I realized
can I eat the weird worm banana thing
(some older modded regions struggle a bit with this concept)
. . .
what weird worm banana thing can i c
i wonder if there's a make grapples work in 0g mod
I don't think Monk liked it.
it feels like a thing thatd make at least someone kinda mad, its such a logical thing to try
I had a strange game

oh youve never got that dream?
That's monk
think he did
oh ohoh
I never got this one
I don't remember
I don't remember getting it
maybe I just forgot
I don't recognize this
That's monk and the 
I think this is Monk exclusive?
omg its the
"☝️🤓" 
look it's literally the 


maybe.... because it maybe is? im not sure
monk is such a cutie
Any theories????
If you had a more average first game you would have seen this
Huh
you can miss some of these if you dont go the intended route(tm)
<- the most unobservant person ever !!
kinda unfortunate about rain world
no you didn't see it on your Survivor campaign, just checked

play compilation of me failing the parkour
interesting
Nah I love the route you took
I love how you took the LEAST likely route
not the LEAST likely one
the LEAST likely one is Shroomie's 

sleepy
gn
ive not seen that one
What did Shroomie do...? 
We should probably take that to coordination thread?? Maybe
i would also like to know what shroomie did
I HATE EELS
I think it's safe to say it here? Given Ollie's already beaten the game and the bug Shroomie used has since been patched
SHELTER AGAIN
wdym bug
oh god I'm scared
uuuuuhhhhhhhhh
That doesn't sound good
bug
this was Shroomie's FIRST playthrough?
TF did bro do
they took Ollie's route up to Subterranean
okay that's normal...
then they independently discovered very unintuitive speedrun tech that made the Eldritch Ones in the Depths disappear
do you not know the tale of shroomie
WHAT.
ermm
He bypassed them?
I don't-
SO HE JUST
BEAT THE GAME?
THIRD REGION??/
Yeah 
yeah they skipped the majority of it
WHAT
THAT'S INSANE WHAT
WHAAATTT
💔
HWAT
LOOLLLLLL 

THEY USED THE OL TRICK IN THE SPEEDRUNNER BOOK???
IS THERE A LINK TO THAT FORUM I WANNA SEE IT
We just told them to restart their save and explore more 
LOOL
did he actually get the ending or did you get him to quit before that
this predates the current forum setup, let me find it
actually got the ending
LOL
Gtg rip 
this is probably
the fastest way a new player best the game
like genuinely
this has to be a world record
for a new player to beat the game this quick
OH MY GOD
that's kinda sad, the ending probably hit way less hard when he actually reached it normally
accidentally preformed a very precise sequence of load-manipulating movements in the process of looking for a spear
oh thats it?
i found my family already?
LOL
WHAT HTE HEHEFHGYUEGDFUYAD
"Well that game was short..."
beat the game in twelve hours
Best part? Downpour came out the next day and fixed the bug 
this has genuinely gotta be the fastest time a new player beat the game
LOL
i forgot, is 12h a realistic time for an intended route playthrough
my brain is saying it should be like 20--30 but idk if you can get lucky
no def not
and just speed through everything
accidentally speedrunning rw is crazy
maybe even up to 60?
it took me 64 hours to beat the game
that's like a stack of hours-
I don't think I can get across here
you never know until you try die
WAIT WHAT I'M NOT DEAD
I got chomped by a lizard
I stopped doing stuff because I thought I'd die
BUT IT LET ME GO
AND I'M ALIVE
now to die to smth else
WHY IS THERE A BIRD DOWN HERE
SHELTER
lol
I should uh
start trying to get the monk and saint passages
since having 3 passages relatively early sounds very nice
tense music
WOAH
WTH
I don't have a pearl.
I take that back
is scavenger toll a surprising thing for someone to get past early game??
is this like
the scavenger's base
in what context
Idk
like look at this
how did you get past it
these reactions
throw a pearl at them
and walk over the scavengers
Okay.
I just
blew up
i suppose you just dont typically see people knowing to do that in outskirts
yeah
when they havent even gone to another region yet like you 
my first interaction with one was prob in garbage wastes
I threw an explosive
and it made the other explosives blow up
and I instantly died
(it was a missclick)
wants me to go this way
but
eh
me when I die 20 times in the easy mode-
i'd say its a mode with slight variations to make it JUST a lil easier
u have to worry a little less about the gates and the food
more "calmer" than "easier"
youre still playing rain world 
The Monk actually has some downsides compared to the Survivor 
and rain world is intrinsically difficult
but as it said, it makes it more peaceful
THE SCAVENGERS HAVE SO MUCH LOOT
i started with monk and im not sure how much easier it really was compared to if i went with survivor instead
THEY HAVE A LAMP
BUT I CAN'T TAKE IT WITH ME
okay
pause
the shadow of the bird on the background
as it comes down
is like
the coolest thing ever
?
did they at least get the vulture
yeah did they
oh that's sad
awh
"Vulture spotted, activate the room nuke."
ooo whatcha got
oh those pack a punch
Imagine getting stabbed with a knife then something detonates it like a bomb

it would hurt
and you would probably die
Yeah
CAN WE MAKE EELS GO EXTINCT
okay
found a shelter and a gate
kinda sad I didn't get to take any bombs with me
WAIT
is this something I killed??
Hmm
I dunno. What did you kill this cycle?
I threw the explosive spear at the mass
and all the like
Xs
+s
Idk but they vanished
huh vanished
yaay
welcome to the drain
Oh?
I'm not sure
Does it look like Shoreline?
Squiggly eel central.
Oh well. New place to explore.
It's one of Rain World's most popular touristic activities. Everyone has to do it at least once.

that would be fine if this was the first time...
Wait a second.
I can't get past because of the eels
I'm sure there are ways to deal with them, or avoid them.
mhm
THE EELS
ARE GROSS
DIE
I can't wait it out because the rain will arrive
Nevermind I just
swam past it them

DAYUM
Ive never killed any of those until like 400 hours
and it was downpour slugcats
I didn't know you even COULD kill them

Doesn't matter how long you've been exploring Rain World.
There is always something new for you to learn somewhere that you missed for the past 400 hours.
And by the time you make it to 400, you'll still have things left to learn!

Imagine all the stuff you missed.
YOU ARE LEADING ME TO A SHELTER I CAN'T REACH
No because just calling it the emoji is really funny
eels do be suck
Personal opinion, but I dislike the blue ones more than the red ones.
But yes. Both suck.
diewd like 20 times to those
i despise those with every fiber of my being
6350 messages
Wait what
dang
HOW
DO I GET PAST THE EELS
I HAVE TO SIT THROUGH THE REALLY LOUD GATE EVERY TIME I DIE
There are ways to get past there.
I know
You could try to look for something in your environment that helps you get past that area. Or just find another way around.
wait a min if theres a mod for everything, i wonder if theres one that speeds up/skips the scene where the gate opesn?
WDYM I DROWNED
okay Ima stop for today
made big progress
talked with Dot
started Monk
found/explored 3 regions I hadn't seen before
what are the 3?
Industrial Complex, Garbage Wastes, and Drainage System(?)
I think so?
there's a mod called OSHA-Compliant Gates that does stuff with gates
not really sure what though
oh there is a mod for everything!
Wait, is this your second playthrough?
they finished Survivor and are now playing Monk
🐌
And you've never been to Industrial?
AND IT WAS SO PEAK
Nope
Huh.
Well, it's a nice region.
this is the order of the regions I went to
wait whats the abyss below
the uh
ending place
the abyss below
Idk what it's called
oh that place
Oh, I see.
ngl I'm excited to see this again
or maybe Monk will have a different ending?
YES.
only a way to find out

fighting silksong's true final boss rn (no spoilers dw)
it's still easier than five pebbles parkour
shhh I haven't played Silksong 

(Remember no spoilers for
what do I call you.
"evil mod dev"
it's less that this game is hard
and more that it's, as you said, STRESSFULLLLLLAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

a little underwhelming for me personally
shush I'm getting obliterated
it sucks cuz i loved the rest of the game
im just good at it naturally
i have the save file at 100% and 67 hours on it
can't wait for the dlc :-)
whatever works 
should I add myself to the Chart™
god i finished the game 100% the first 2 weeks LOL
it was so fun
I am devving a mod as we speak (the recent update made it crash the game)
(What the mod actually is is massive spoilers for you though
)
it actually isn't really
can u tell us in another chat
im more of a web developr
i dont like programming so i wont bother
What is the Chart™ 
an old list I have hidden somewhere in the first-playthrough shadow government headquarters
with all of the funny names you all come up with for things
oh that
I haven't updated it in a while, though
We did tell you farm arrays was a really weird place to have gone to as your second region

This one is the commonest second region
true
TRUE
Hello
Ryan's wo-
RAIN World time!!

I
have to sit through this gate animation
every time I die
EELS
drowned
this sucks
since when could
go underwater
slugcats can't swim for more than 2 seconds apparently
Wait you can open the map in the death menu??
drainage system is difficult
EELS
THERE'S NOTHING I CAN DO AGAINST THEM
it's just RNG... 
I HATE EELS
I CAN'T GET PAST THIS
I've died like 10 times
ngl this region's kinda not good... 
not yet at least
(it's not I'm just bad)
I HATE THIS PLACE I HATE THIS PLACE I HATE THIS PLACE I HATE THIS PLACE I HATE THIS PLACE
Glad to see you're still updating this thread. You've made so much progress!! Keep going gamer :]
do you think monk tastes like banana
Maybe
Survivor = Vanilla
Monk = Banana
Hunter = Strawberry
help what do I do in this situation
Die ✨
I HATE THIS REGION
I CAN'T EVEN GET TO THE FIRST SHELTER
does monk drown faster or something
OKAY THAT'S STUPID
THAT'S JUST DUMB
WTH
this place is harder than five pebbles
BRO
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
||Yes actually. Unfortunate side effect of not eating as much.||
I see
Really, though, if that particular tunnel is too hard, the most consistent solution is to go somewhere else 
maybe you'll find an easier way in there later
These WASTES are GARBAGE.
"Scavenger tolls" are cool
MUSIC

Deformed Mass
Rejected Mass
Swamp Mass
potential names
although
okay they could be either
mass from five pebbles that was sent away
since it's smaller
or it originated here and was taken to five pebbles for whatever reason
and became the mass
THE MASS
IS EVERYWHERE
I HATE THE MASS
I HATE THE MASS
Yeah

🫐 🫐 🫐 🫐 🫐
Banana
banana vs moldy blueberries
Who will win
and speed up the hibernating animation by presing the map button
dear god he's in drainage
liquidity system
I think this is the worst region I could've gone to as Monk
going from garbage wastes to drainage system is ridiculously hard
it's basically a one-way passage that can be gone the other way but you'd suffer for it

Ollie's Experience
Yes
My Experience
Idk if I should go back to drainage systems
I want to explore it but it lik
it's awful there
THIS GAME IS STRESSFULLLLLLAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
Dot the sillt
another easy steal
I'm alive btw
hello
hi
hi
GREETINGS!!!!!
Garbage Wastes
or...
Drainage System
the worst place ever
or
the worst place ever
monk is harder than survivor
joking
kinda
I want to explore drainage system
but like
it sucks there
so
can't eat the dried eels
YO
WAIT
THAT'S NOT NICE
THAT SCAVENGER JUST THREW A SPEAR AT 
dodged it because he's just better BUT STILL
THEY'RE ACTUALLY ATTACKING 
why won't this game let me eat everything
what the
I have never seen a scavenger swim before
Scavenger we need to run
NO
guys
he didn't make it
progress
who thought the eels should drag you down into the water
who
WHO THOUGHT OF THIS
Wait
You're telling me
THIS
IS WHERE THE GAME TEACHES YOU HOW SCAVENGERS WORK???
THE GAME TEACHES YOU HOW SCAVENGERS WORK?????
I JUST FIGURED IT OUT MYSELF
ngl
I know this is an open world kinda game
but
there's definitely an "intended path"
this looks new
GAME
CAN I PLEASE
HAVE A SHELTER
well there goes all that progress
why
are the blue eels
here
what is he doing?
SHELTER
Farm Arrays is easier than this
Woah the whole gang is here
I HATE
THE WORM THINGS
THAT STEAL YOUR ITEMS
WHY DO YOU EXIST
OH MY GOD THE EELS ATE THE FLY
oh my hgbodhduwhfdawf
I got to a gate
Into new lands, preferably ones that aren't drainage system
I think it'll be shoreline
showing me Dot
that is NOT Monk
I'm concerned
it's gotta be shoreline
but the pipes are still orange and the water is still green
I will keep traveling
Nevermind
Major progression area!(?)

a place I recognize...
so you can go
outskirts-farmarrays-subterranean-Shoreline
or
outskirts-industrialcomplex-garbagewastes-Shoreline
something tells me the map wouldn't fit together if you like
put all the regions in one
3 passages in
uhhh is this early game anymore
bro
I need to swim AAAAAAAAAALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL the way back over here
so I can get a spear
then I gotta swim AAAAAAALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL THE WAY BACK THERE

how is that made???
?
IT
WAS POINTLESS
YOU CAN GET UP WITHOUT A SPEAR
progressing too fast
oh my god that guy was right you can just
swim over the jellyfish
WHAT'S THE POINT
🪼
I also now understand why this role colour is black
and not like
bright yellow or smth
oh that's new
Where is Survivor
I GOT THE MONK PASSAGE
IN THE MONK PLAYTHROUGH
i meant the emoji how is it made
Idk
okay I'd say like
(Maybe)
when
starts showing you Dot
that's like
mid-game
when you get to "The Leg"
that could be "late-game"
Ig Idk
GOT THE SAINT PASSAGE
I have 3 whole passages
We meet again.
How did I not notice the arm attached to Dot
like I saw it in the dream but not ingame somehow
old friend...
Remember...
Wait so this means Monk and Survivor went to the same places
WOAH
OMG
WAS SHOWING FIVE PEBBLES
dot!!
hehehe
🔥

nah thats a different one
whuuhh
thats what the first one looked like
no it's actually dot that's the tiniest shade brighter

a subtle but incredibly powerful lore hint, that means many things
I think the idea is it's twisting around in 3D space. Still, though 
DOT
Ngl I kinda forgot there were multiple layers when I typed that
That's weird
I’ll just interpret it as Monk having a dream(or vision or whatever) about Survivor
DOT

huh
how does that happen

did you watch the cutscene?
like the monk intro
yeah
Monk chased after Survivor
oh ok
Which I did not expect and has crazy story implications
Hola
I haven't been in this thread In forever:p cause I thought you were already done with your monk run 
I see you has found the garbage wastes 
I hope the experience was peak
Hi
I am not
Garbage Wastes is a cool region
I see now it’s meant to be training for the mass in five pebbles
My first encounter with that region was rough, second time it was sm better.
Oh god the mass 
You reminded me how imma have to see them again in 5P 
that first path is the most insane pne i have ever seen a first player take to get to shoreline
the second one is the "intended" one lmao
why do you deem it as crazy? lol
the monk just wanted to see brother survivor
Farm Arrays might be easier than Garbage Wastes somehow
Probably because of the mass and the things that steal your items
I don’t think I realized
was trying to lead me anywhere at the time
Oh so they’re brothers(maybe)
That makes sense
It’s crazy to me because it means both playthroughs canonically happen at the same time
At least I think
When you get to talk with pebbles + moon guys you'll probably get more answers 
Did you create nicknames for the entities at those places l already forgor
OH YEAH
Dot
Fire
The pink one is “Cloak”
“Pearl” works too
Though I’m pretty sure Dot called Cloak “Five Pebbles”
Or they were talking about the region but Idk if that would make sense
Also Cloak has some deeper connection with Five Pebbles
At least the memory sub-area
cloak isn't the greatest of names to have, but i'm sure it's far more preferable than to be named five pebbles
Pearl makes sense since he has pearls I haven’t seen anywhere else
Idk
Dot has encountered the scavengers before
I wonder if Cloak has?
It’s much more dangerous in Five Pebbles than it is in Shoreline, also Cloak seems to be a lot stronger and way more dangerous than Dot
So I wouldn’t be surprised if not
confused me alot when I DID follow
Is this my sign to return back to cheese the slug 
I left him AT 5P 💔
Ye I think the same too
Cause we did see him go after the survivor
Yk whats crazy....I NEVER encountered the MASS2.0 😭 idk how
You named him??
I didn't name mine because I was too scared I'd lose him(I was right)
wh
I think Mass 2.0 is the blue one and Mass 1.0 is the brown one
I didn't know the brown one existed until this monk playthrough because I never went to garbage wastes
Yeah
I named every slug known to this game, even tho i don't own downpour
I named survivor Squiggles and monk, Cheese
Hunter is Larry
Makes more sense. I didnt know the brown ones was EVEN a thing cause I didnt go that far in that area
Wait I horrifically misread your message nvm
thought you were talking about the swingworm for some reason
I named my swing worm, cinnamon roll i think
Pretty thr swing worm is still with me
I left it behind when I used the passage to go to Subterranean
time to play the most peaceful game ever
very
assessment
the MOST calm and relaxing game EVER
compared to any game in all of gaming history
this is the MOST CALMING game of them all
Cycle 24 ~ Looks to the Moon
only 24??
what cycle was it when I got here the first time
68
wow
Idk what to do tbh
Ig I'll go down the path to get the mark
and do other things after
I don't want to beat the game so soon
NOOO I LOST MY PEARL
We meet again...
I don't have a pearl
that really sucks
there's pearls in the shaded citadel right
okay they're literally right at the entrance
idea
you know rope mimics?
what about
spear mimics
they mimic the spears on the ground
and if you pick them up they eat you
Memory Crypts (ew metal birds
)
I HATE
HATE
THE METAL BIRDS
LMAO I FORGOR ABOUT THOSE
✂️
They freaked me out at first. Omg they REFUSED to move from where I needed to go my first encounter
what
Cloak? 
OH
Pearl
..cloak had hair? 

(joke)
why do they ALWAYS seem to get stuck in that one spot every time
PLEASE
LEAVE BEFORE THE RAIN COMES
WHY
ARE MORE
COMING
AAAAAAAAAAAAA
oh I need food
UGH I HATE THIS PLACE
I can't lure them away
I GOT PAST THEM
BY RUNNING INTO THEM
AND GOING INTO THE PIPE BEFORE THEY GRABBED ME
THE LEG
speedrunning
(I don't want to beat the game yet I just want the mark)
since it's useful
I should try getting more passages
since they give achievements
I forgot that the leg music was like
good

?
wh

I can't see the animated emojis
???
okay it loaded
wth
smth I found
Idk if I brought it up
probably did
but
if you jump in a pipe you get pushed forward
if you do that
while turning
you get boosted extra far
Ooo interesting

Should be dandy to use in the futute
FUTURE
dangit
my fingers
AAAAAAGG
Anyways
Gl with the metal birds
Ye
It sounds like it is ngl
I dhould play
but im b r o k e
gif got deleted
You haven't played?
why are there no creatures
where did everyone go
okay
whiter lizard
SWINGWORMS!!!
nvm I died
new buddy and tool
I'M DOING THE PARKOUR
AND NOT STRUGGLING
I don't like the noises the swingworms make
actually I don't like the noises a lot of things make
THE MASS
WOAH
that lizard
I couldn't tell what it was until I was close and it like
flickered
AH'
I got jumpscared
the mass should eat the lizards
it makes me mad that they don't
NVM
IT'S TRYING
OMG IT'S TRYING
okay he got away
THEY'RE FIGHTHING WHILE CLIMBING THE LEG WHAT
THE LIZARD KNOCKED IT DOWNA
AND IT FELL
oh no I dropped my spear into a pit..
how did I do this last time...
spear parkour is the answer
I HATE THE MASS
Underhang in Cycle 32
wow this game is short if you actually like
lock in
shelter
Monk is weird
having to eat less feels weird
like
in survivor I was like
just eating enough to survive most of the time
but here
I can be greedy 

why are you like that
I have more food than I can eat
this was a rare occurrence in survivor
that is a cursed idea
the easy mode is too easy 
someone make this
giant bird hirdressers 
🦵 🎹 🎵
what does being good at this game even look like
YOU
OLLIE
Question that's unrelated to your current pain with the MASS
Have you seen the survivor pillow plush 
yeah 🥹
I have not?
show
Hold on 
i reached the bottom!! 
Theres also a watcher one :p
YIPPEEEEE
WHAT
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
I like
hmwdfadh
I love it
Hes so derpy
I still haven't played arena mode...
Neither have I 😭

Imma be honest....I barely remember how to get to 5P
hm
do I want to explore that other way tho...
I mean I do want to explore all kinds of places
places I didn't go during Survivor
Maybe you can find different routes 
Maybe
Wawa.
I also...didnt go far here bc I was terrified...of the mass
Wa
Wawawaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa 

wawawawwawawawaawwawawaa
what does the meow mod do
wawawawawwwwawaAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
(death sound effect)
This is all I got as an example for how the meows will sound.
It literally allows you to meow
I see
it's peak I need to install this
(I'll do modded in 10 years when I beat all the slugcats or something Idk)
OH I saw a trailer for this, I belive it was gunpowder who sent it to me in my thread but its buried 
Theres a trailer from whoever made it.
Every cat has their own wa
PEAK???
It makes the game 200x better.
The way id spam it too 💔
How is that even possible
Wet sopping cat, crusty cat are peak names from that trailer
