Oh and no don't starve or immortal

#

Or other exclusive traits

mint shore
#

Seems a bit sadistic and likely to move the game into M-rated territory if you ask me

I mean, this does happen to real life cult stuff, I guess I can agree with this, if it means to get followers to stop fighting or bullying other followers or stealing people's beds.

didnt we ||trap 5 gods in mortal forms eternally and enslave them?||

#

also you can literally make people eat their kids

mint shore
#

This has weird fantasy vibes to me as well

#

The mechanic just really rubs me the wrong way and I think that it's way too extreme

pliant current
#

okay, how about a milder way, like death threats?

#

or menticide mushrooms

#

or this

cus you probably skipped that

mint shore
#

I'm opposed to a sadistic torture option

cursive anvil
#

didn't we fucking beat the shit out of some monstrous cat deity

#

and force bishops to be our followers

#

and we have sacrificing loyal followers for so much power

#

i dunno why its so "sadistic" to get beaten

mint shore
cursive anvil
#

while it isn't when you are doing very dark ritualistic murder

mint shore
#

With whipping

#

Not just a quick one-time thing either

cursive anvil
#

its better than being consumed by a random door

mint shore
cursive anvil
#

i guess there really IS no point of arguing with a brick wall

<@&353187254874931221> Thanks in advance

cursive anvil
#

LOL WOW BRO

pallid elm
#

Look, I was a former cult member luckily mine was a vibe and things weren't really forced and we weren't manipulated n shit in fact we had full freedom almost so I wouldn't say all cults need to be as twisted and fucked as this lmao

mint shore
#

I'll drop out of this discussion for now

cursive anvil
#

you really pinged all of the fricking moderators

#

over a conversation

#

on whipping cultists

pallid elm
#

And even if the crowd is not dense enough you still wont see flesh tearing n shit

#

I mean, it wouldn't affect me but it could restrict the game for a fuckton more ppl

#

Eh who am I kidding. I'll eat up any game content like a gourmet 5 star meal.

#

They could probably add the most twisted shit besides Alabama stuff and I'd be eating that shit up

cursive anvil
#

mana

#

whats your reaction on them pinging all moderators

#

on a conversation about whipping cultists

#

im lmao at this

pallid elm
tulip violet
cursive anvil
#

yeah wow.

#

narinder

tulip violet
#

Only do so for actual emergencies

mint shore
cursive anvil
#

i literally showed them few other dark sadistic parts of the game

#

and then they literally just

#

did that

mint shore
tulip violet
#

Drop the attitude please

cursive anvil
mint shore
#

Not because of the thing being debated

tulip violet
#

I'm reading over

cursive anvil
#

I JUST SAID ITS POINTLESS TO ARGUE

tulip violet
#

Either way reserve mod role pings for serious emergencies

cursive anvil
#

damn

#

yeah thanks

#

nice

mint shore
#

I'll write up a report next time

tulip violet
#

Grabbing a single mod is a faster way to get instant help if you feel there's an issue

cursive anvil
#

love it when someone pings moderators

tulip violet
#

Or make a ticket

cursive anvil
#

over a conversation of WHIPPING CULTISTS

#

and i get fucking jumped for just showing other sadistic parts of the game and saying its pointless to argue in a way of referencing a meme

strange talon
#

Stop now

#

and please be mindful of the language you use towards others in the server

cursive anvil
#

alright my bad

#

i got angry there

#

but i showed a few other sadistic parts of the game

strange talon
#

Narinder is reading over the discussion now, give us some time to see what's happened

cursive anvil
#

and said its actually no point to argue with a "brick wall"

#

(saying that the argument is basically pointless)

mint shore
cursive anvil
#

and i get jumped

#

mhm awesome

strange talon
#

no problem mello, all good

mint shore
#

I'll back out of this and just use the report feature next time, my bad

cursive anvil
#

wow reporting just for showing sadistic parts of the game and saying its pointless to argue while referencing a meme

#

waow bro

#

very bald

strange talon
#

bro I literally just said to drop it

cursive anvil
#

ok but rat am i not right

strange talon
#

drop it

cursive anvil
#

FINE

strange talon
#

as for the whipping - from a developer perspective, I don't see this happening in game. Historically and culturally the action of whipping has awful connotations

pallid elm
#

What'd make more sense is a lobotomy anyways.

strange talon
#

I don't know how to explain it other than there are certain lines we don't want to cross and whipping feels like one of those. A bit too sadistic and irrelevant to the games identity and theme

#

There are other animations of course in game like sacrificing, etc but whipping just feels a bit wrong due to the historical connotations especially in my personal opinion

cursive anvil
#

huh

#

but what about the argument

#

is me saying "theres no point of arguing with a brick wall" so offensive

strange talon
#

You can have the guys in jail, that feels like enough to re-educate them

tulip violet
strange talon
#

How many times have I asked you to drop this discussion?

It's not about it being offensive. Its about the mods asking you to stop the discussion so we can evaluate and move the discussion elsewhere

tulip violet
#

Multiple times

umbral echo
#

bro people are going to find a follower with bad traits and than give it the monkey follower form

#

do NOT add this

strange talon
#

I have already left my thoughts as a developer on this suggestion above
