[radiant wren]

Still requires energy. It’s why I don’t play highly competitive pvp games much anymore. The muscle memory is there but it’s still draining especially when cheaters infect them

[dim saffron]

They do

[agile cradle]

didn't you jus snip at me for being disrespectful

[dim saffron]

But people skip them

[radiant wren]

Nah lol unless the enemy team is just unskilled

[dim saffron]

Or don’t read

[thorn jacinth]

How am I being disrespectful

[radiant wren]

Said idiot would need to have some skills in their back pocket to go along with the supposed idiocy if they wanted to actually survive

[agile cradle]

just compared the bad reviewers to 3 year olds lmao

[thorn jacinth]

That’s their issue if they skip a tutorial and then complain they don’t understand what to do

[dim saffron]

Well that’s 85% of the reviews

[thorn jacinth]

I compared the people that say “can’t find animals” and post bad reviews to 3 year olds

[pine lily]

yeah the tutorial hints do give good basic info, the problem is people dont listen or dont read em and decide sprinting around like a moron is the best playstyle and never sneak anywhere

[thorn jacinth]

I think 3 year olds are smarter sorry

[pine lily]

i mean i don't disagree

every time its someone who:

[dim saffron]

Wait wait

[pine lily]

• ignores every hint

[dim saffron]

You forgot the best part

[pine lily]

• ignores every tip

[dim saffron]

Spamming a caller in the wrong map

[pine lily]

• plays the game the exact opposite of how people advise them too

[radiant wren]

• doesn’t look anything up for themselves

[pine lily]

• and does everything wrong

[thorn jacinth]

People ignore the tutorial and other info the game gives them and then complain they don’t understand the mechanics

[paper locust]

The tutorial debate is actually a really common one among the gaming industry on the dev side too. It's a very careful balance of ensuring all key information is laid out but it's not too much information. Too much at once and too long of a tutorial are just as detrimental to a game as being too short and missing key details.

[agile cradle]

i do, most people expect a better tutorial than drip feeding, not everyone wants to play a game where everything needs to be googled

[dim saffron]

Mericans

Lmao

Hehehe

[pine lily]

i mean they did change the tutorial hints to be more comprehensive summaries and the codex has everything at arm's reach

[thorn jacinth]

The tutorial helps a lot if ur gonna read every hint and tip the game gives u

[agile cradle]

i feel its pretty easy to make a tutorial out of this game without feeling locked in

[pine lily]

everything else is very intuitive

[potent bane]

Hunting doesn't follow rules irl, animals are unpredictable

[radiant wren]

This game is pretty good with it, but as a newbie (+ someone that plays with newbs) the tutorial info still leaves a bit to be desired
It’s almost perfect though. It does give some solid info

[pine lily]

you can know what caller to use for what by checking the description

same goes for guns, albeit with a tad more time to figure out weapon classes

[agile cradle]

people prefer informational gameplay over written instruction too

[radiant wren]

The codex is also majorly broken in so many parts 😭

[paper locust]

They do a decent job of it tbh. I think a big part of the issue they are facing now is the game's overall growth. People are not always starting with the single player missions on Hirsh/Layton so they are missing a ton of key starter info by jumping further in

[pine lily]

its either great or terrible no inbetween

[dim saffron]

No no, the content creator hunted great one, now I want one on first day I play

[spark fable]

a lot of meat

[radiant wren]

This is the craziest to me. Like, I was adamant that I would get a g1 bear before reaching lvl 60. Started early. But I understood this was intended to be one of the rarest of the rares in game lol

[thorn jacinth]

That one deer trying to find friends

[radiant wren]

How people think they’re just gonna get plopped into their lap is beyond me

[agile cradle]

skill issue that u didnt tbh

[dim saffron]

Yeah

[radiant wren]

Content creators thrive off views, duh they’re gonna have hella g1 videos and make it seem easy… it’s their literal job to do so

[pine lily]

funniest thing is, ive known it to happen a handful of times and it was entirely for folks who didnt have that goal in mind

just got a lucky rando spawn

[spark fable]

even😄

[pine lily]

posted the prints

"yo why is this weight so high?"

gen chat explodes

[radiant wren]

So true!! Same here, but the expectation that’s normal is bonkers!!

[thorn jacinth]

Are super rares supposed to be more rare than great ones

[dim saffron]

Yes

[thorn jacinth]

That’s funny

[pine lily]

yeah, its the combined rarity of the fur AND the trophy rating

[dim saffron]

No

[pine lily]

so its like an exponent higher

[thorn jacinth]

A friend had a SR initial spawn

[paper locust]

In a statistical way they are. Because you're playing with two very low RNG chances and trying to force them together

[radiant wren]

They’re called fabled/great one for a reason
They’re so mysterious… and hard to get… for a reason

[agile cradle]

you're banking on two different lines of RNG to be correct

[pine lily]

G1s used to be able to do that too but people would spawn mash for them by new game spamming

[thorn jacinth]

Crazy

[pine lily]

simultaneously in the same animal at that

[paper locust]

Which is so dumb. I glad they changed that lol

[pine lily]

its one thing for them to happen in the same population on the same map

[agile cradle]

nah bring back initial G1s

[pine lily]

then you up the stakes by having it be the same singular individual

[dim saffron]

No

[thorn jacinth]

Nah I understand how they work just wasn’t sure if GO were considered more rare than SR

[pine lily]

you know we cant trust mfs with that

[spark fable]

I saw something interesting in the trailer and I think it will be an interesting hunt

[radiant wren]

Absolutely wild RNG. Which is another reason I just chuckle a bit upon seeing people with crazy amounts of them upon switching to/playing on PC. Like… I see you. lol

[agile cradle]

like me

new game spam say what

[dim saffron]

What

[radiant wren]

No

[agile cradle]

huh

[thorn jacinth]

People would do anything but play fair

[pine lily]

huh

[dim saffron]

Only like 2% maybe of the players

[agile cradle]

i feel like i'm having an aneurysm figuring out the logic

[radiant wren]

Speaking of percentages I find it interesting there’s seriously only like 10% or less of the audience for this game that grinds

Or considers themselves grinders

[dim saffron]

Goood

[thorn jacinth]

I’m saying if someone has the idea of being unfair and tries to spawn GO by initial spawn and finds out that doesn’t work anymore they would just think about modding their map after all

[radiant wren]

Meanwhile people think it’s the entire game

[radiant wren]

Agreed. I just think it’s interesting given some of the convos + debates people have lol

[dim saffron]

Because cc’s only do that or almost

[agile cradle]

what you actually said was "they might as well" lmao

[dim saffron]

It’s such a plague

[thorn jacinth]

Bad wording

My bad

[pine lily]

i mean yeah that happens, but your initial message didnt communicate that lmao

[novel galleon]

Did you hear about the steam train yesterday?

[radiant wren]

Love how you say this yet you grind 😭🙌 but felt

[thorn jacinth]

I ain’t english so I’m not surprised I sometimes fail to deliver what im thinking about

[paper locust]

Honestly probably even less. The amount of people who purchase games and just... have them is a pretty significant amount of the market considering. I'm also guilty of this but slowly remedying it 😅

[dim saffron]

Only for wolves

[agile cradle]

i cant tell if this is a set up to a joke or a piece of news i didnt hear about

[dim saffron]

and I stopped after I got one

[radiant wren]

And goats

[dim saffron]

And feral goat is for a super rare

[radiant wren]

Yeah

Still grinding though lol

[dim saffron]

I still play a lot

[radiant wren]

Both things can coexist lol

[dim saffron]

Just today

[radiant wren]

Noiceee

[novel galleon]

There was a steamtrain that went from Fife to Clackmannanshire to Stirlingshire then Falkirkshire then Lothian

On a round route

[agile cradle]

i had no idea

[paper locust]

oh like an actual train

[dim saffron]

Consider people like Aero : 8400 wolves (1/108 species) in a month

[dim saffron]

Didn’t kill one animal other than a wolf in one month

[paper locust]

You'd separated it in your previous message so I thought it was some digital thing 😂

[radiant wren]

I’m aware there’s other people who get more kills. I’m just sayin you grind, that’s just a fact. It’s all g. 😂

[agile cradle]

mint

[thorn jacinth]

How many hours do y’all have on the game

[agile cradle]

5

[dim saffron]

1500 in 8 years

That’s like an average of 8 days total by year

[novel galleon]

Whats your opinions on edinburgh

[paper locust]

I'm at 148 hours ish

[agile cradle]

the place stinks the people are miserable and theres too many stairs

[versed hearth]

just hit 100

[dim saffron]

I see

For goats, I use all the lakes

[thorn jacinth]

Do you even care about diamonds at that point 😭

[novel galleon]

Fr it sucks as being an actual city its only good if your a tourist there

Glasgows better

[dim saffron]

Yes, that’s the main thing

Diamonds always been the best thing

[wraith ore]

I have close to 4,000 hours in almost 6 years. I only have diamonds of, like, 30 species. I've still got a long ways to go lol

[digital quartz]

My brother actually lives less than a block away from my grandma

[dim saffron]

I ain’t going to kill 120 animals an hour and claim them like a freak

No

Gonna shoot one by zone

Grinding or not

[digital quartz]

(Longview cemetery)

[dim saffron]

And ethically

[thorn jacinth]

Holy

[dim saffron]

Ask drew or inco_X

[viscid jolt]

I’m at 1100 hours and have been playing since July 2023 I thinkkk

[dim saffron]

They are over 9000 hours

[pine lily]

im at like 850

and ive played since....

[dim saffron]

That’s a whole year and counting

[thorn jacinth]

At that point I’d think they have a decent amount of great ones

[pine lily]

i think i got the game a couple months after MedVed release

[dim saffron]

One got like 115

[agile cradle]

honse are you on today

[mighty dove]

I play on and off so I don't have many hours

[dim saffron]

And the other nearly 250

[paper locust]

I'm just shy of 150 hours in a month so.... 😅

[pine lily]

maybe? ive got some work to blitzkrieg

[mighty dove]

Maybe around 2k at the least

[thorn jacinth]

😭

[agile cradle]

damn idk how much longer i'll be awake

[pine lily]

reflection, powerpoint slides, portfolio, and starting a paper

[digital quartz]

I have 18 minutes on steam...

[pine lily]

i mean, itd prolly be like 7PM to 11PM my time if I am on

[mighty dove]

18 minutes more than 0!

[digital quartz]

Sleep is for the English

[agile cradle]

its 8pm for me now lmfao

[digital quartz]

[pine lily]

lord lol

[agile cradle]

hurry and graduate nerd

[radiant wren]

Bros gotta take his tonin yummies and hit the hay

[thorn jacinth]

And what’s y’all’s best trophy

[radiant wren]

Yeah do that

[agile cradle]

birds

[dim saffron]

My favorite

[pine lily]

max score max weight gray fox multimounted with a max score max weight red fox

[versed hearth]

diamond muley on srp

[dim saffron]

Not my pb

[pine lily]

either that or the max score/max weight hazel grouse

[thorn jacinth]

Nice stuff

[dim saffron]

But my fav

[night trench]

119,97 melanistic black grouse

[versed hearth]

absolute beast

[thorn jacinth]

My only max weight max score is this

[dim saffron]

I only have 3 max weight max scores

[radiant wren]

Mid. Idk what it is abt sheep I find boring. I wanna like em more but eh

[dim saffron]

And two of them are wigeons

[hollow tundra]

https://tenor.com/view/lick-sniff-curious-deer-buck-gif-15761084

[radiant wren]

I only like the feral goats

[thorn jacinth]

I don’t know I like them

[agile cradle]

all animals other than birds are invalid

skill issue if u think otherwise

[thorn jacinth]

What species do y’all think NEEDS a remodel

[radiant wren]

They’re alright

[agile cradle]

all birds

[radiant wren]

Bobwhite

Badly

[dim saffron]

Vurhonga

[spark fable]

all

[digital quartz]

How much will i need to annoy vivi this week?

[thorn jacinth]

I think grizzlies and roosevelt elk

[agile cradle]

was nice knowing u ig

[radiant wren]

Also needs more species 🙏🏻😭 so bad
Give em more little critters

[thorn jacinth]

Man grizzlies look horrendous

[agile cradle]

grizzly and rosie look fine to me

[radiant wren]

No

[agile cradle]

fav animals beside birds

[radiant wren]

I hide my diamond grizzly in a closet because he’s so ugly and I hate him

[digital quartz]

Vivi enjoys my antics(probably not, but i can lie to myself)

[radiant wren]

Bro you’re gonna get genuinely permabanned one day lmao

[dim saffron]

I don’t

[digital quartz]

Maybe, but i doubt it

[thorn jacinth]

def the worst looking model prob

I said Roosevelt but Roosevelt looks acceptable compared to grizzlies

[dim saffron]

Jackal

Closely followed by scrub hare

[radiant wren]

On the outside looking in… you’re closer than you think 😭🙏🏻

[agile cradle]

grizzly was easily the best they ever added off the bat

[digital quartz]

💔

[dim saffron]

https://tenor.com/view/seamus-harrypotter-potter-fire-explode-gif-7271816

[radiant wren]

No this is kinda true in a way
They have a certain… pizazz 😭

I’m still hiding mine away

[agile cradle]

i put mine on display next to my roosevelt elk

also askiy mid

[dim saffron]

Look at el Jack ahhh

[digital quartz]

Eh, idk. I've provably helped the mods enough to be safe🤷‍♂️

[thorn jacinth]

I take it back man Roosevelt look good compared to those

What is that 😭

[radiant wren]

That’s not how that works bro coming from someone that has been mod 💔🥹 don’t fly too close to the sun

[agile cradle]

i dont get the rosie hate they're easily the best model

[dim saffron]

A ghost

GHOST

[digital quartz]

What's-his-name wouldn't be as famous if he didnt fly close to the sun

[agile cradle]

Icarus

[radiant wren]

And they’re gone/dead 💀🥹 brother what is your point

Be safe 🥹🙌

[agile cradle]

seamus gonna be the new Liam fr

[dim saffron]

That guy who flew too close to the sun and his wings melted

Yeah

[digital quartz]

I'm thin enough to float down like a sheet of paper

[lament vault]

Lmao

One of those eat a 300 win mag for scaring my pig lol

[novel galleon]

I think this is max weight

[uneven bloom]

100kg is indeed max weight for WT

[novel galleon]

I got non vital tho

stupid me

[thorn jacinth]

😔

[austere wigeon]

Massive gold

[thorn jacinth]

would have been a solid diamond

I have yet to get a diamond whitetail

[dim saffron]

It will come

[thorn jacinth]

Probably won’t unless I start playing again

Kinda took a break and haven’t touched the game since August

But this time it was a justified break

[thorn jacinth]

I love how I’ve got 3 diamond reindeers but no diamond whitetail

[dim saffron]

That’s an impressive feat

I got 1 Diamond reindeer

15 trolls

[dim saffron]

First one is max weight

Nice

[thorn jacinth]

And that’s half of my diamonds lmao

[novel galleon]

I only have diamond feral and sambar

Feral pig that is

[tropic adder]

3 dime reindeer is tuff

[thorn jacinth]

All of them dark brown 😔

Wanted some variation in that

Would have taken a light brown

I’m kind of tempted to try get a 4th now and hope it’s light brown

But I remember how painful it was with the amount of trolls

[tropic adder]

🥹

[lament vault]

Is this in the UK? If so make sure the deer is not injured before transporting as it is illegal to transport injured

[novel galleon]

Wasnt me that took it

[lament vault]

I know it’s a joke i’m being pedantic😂

[novel galleon]

This was a couple years ago so i guess it was fine

[novel galleon]

Ohhh shoot

Mb

[lament vault]

No you’re good

I’m bad it’s sarcasm🤣

[green wraith]

The roe deer remaster is so beautiful im gonna cry!! 🦌 ❤️

it finally got some love!
Cannot wait to see the new variations of racks!

[lament vault]

But I am being dead serious it is an offense to transport injured deer

[novel galleon]

It looks close to scotlands scenery

[lament vault]

I hope the small ones are closer together because realistically younger roe deer have tighter antlers in comparison to the older ones as the pedicle gets smaller with age

[novel galleon]

As a scottish person myself

Its crazy accurate

[lament vault]

lol

I’m a South African deer nerd who got transplanted to the UK

But it is very accurate

[novel galleon]

So your british but south african too?

[lament vault]

Hopefully both doe and bucks will both be in winter coat instead of does being in summer and Bucks being in winter

[lament vault]

Ye

[novel galleon]

Cool

England?

[lament vault]

Yip

[novel galleon]

Unlucky

[lament vault]

I stalk around Oxford

I have shot quite a bit there

[novel galleon]

Oxford is nice tho

[lament vault]

Nah

Too cold everywhere else😂

[novel galleon]

England is pretty bad tbh

[lament vault]

The UK is bad

In general there’s a lot of things that do not make sense

[novel galleon]

Its 2 degrees rn

[lament vault]

Exactly I would die😂

[novel galleon]

Nah the rest of the uk is fine except england

England is odd

[lament vault]

No

Northern Ireland is odd

[novel galleon]

Nah they are chill

[lament vault]

Scotland Wales and England are mostly reasonable

[novel galleon]

Celtic countries are the best

[lament vault]

Well I think South Africa is the best so like this is not really applicable💀

[novel galleon]

On the government sides

[lament vault]

At any rate do you stalk?

[novel galleon]

England is the worst

[lament vault]

I agree with that actually

[lament vault]

Frfr

[novel galleon]

England has stopped us from being independent for years

Its annoying because they know it will happen

[lament vault]

Skill issue🗿

[novel galleon]

Everyones tired of it now

[lament vault]

No I’m joking it’s neither here or there for me

I don’t have any really big political opinions aside from hunting and shooting

And most of those are actually pretty tame in comparison to what I’ve heard from some people

[novel galleon]

If i said my opinions i would be gone real quick lol

[lament vault]

Lmao

Based Scottish person🗿

[lone forge]

I visited the uk once I difnt like but six the musical was cool, I visited London and Birmingham I preferred London but it was very expensive

[novel galleon]

No wonder

You went to birmingham

[lone forge]

My father had a friend there

[novel galleon]

Birmingham is one of the worst cities in the uk bro

[lone forge]

So that's where we stayed most of the time, I think like 6 our of the 9 days

[lone forge]

Is it especially bad?

[novel galleon]

I know

London is quite bad too'

Its a mess

Crime wise

i know this is beyond off topic i simply just want to say this is pretty wrong… CERTAIN crimes are bad admittedly but it is very much overplayed in the media thanks to a certain few people

anyway guys i am LOVING this new shark G1

[pine lily]

why are there sharks

[paper locust]

I have no clue 😂

[radiant wren]

Because they’re full of joy and whimsy

Please don’t remove them I think we all need the positivity

[paper locust]

I like that i can adjust their rotation based on my mobile scroll

[radiant wren]

Wait

I feel like one of those iPad toddlers right now

[chilly frigate]

lol

[pine lily]

sea cow!

[delicate peak]

Question is which flavor of sea cow

[pine lily]

not sure

[limber cliff]

scotland flavored sea cow

[radiant harbor]

Do you guys know what is the new great one

[uneven bloom]

Not yet.

we'll probably learn more Tuesday

[agile cradle]

haggis n irn bru

[limber cliff]

Orange grain.

[amber kiln]

Pine marten, Badger, Woodcock. I return to say the same 3 species I’m excited for

[pine lily]

albino woodcock might be comical to see

comically small white ball

with a beak

[amber kiln]

I wonder how many plumages they’ll have. I’ve only seen 1 irl out of all the ones I’ve seen

[pine lily]

honestly no idea, if they do them like they give attention to ducks id imagine we could expect 4 to 7

[amber kiln]

Rares look like they can be sick. As for commons I can only find different shades of the same colors, so they’ll probably just have one common plumage, 2 at most

[agile cradle]

sea of orange

[uneven bloom]

there is indeed much orange in chat rn

[agile cradle]

they're so dumb they literally think their camoflage is good enough to not need to flush

thats how they get hand caught so often

[amber kiln]

I know lmao. I hunt them irl. It’s funny sometimes how close you get

[pine lily]

neat

[amber kiln]

They’ll just be sitting in the middle of the road and not flush😭

[weak smelt]

I can't wait for wooddick and red grouse

[agile cradle]

i have nearly stepped on them while out walking lmao

[amber kiln]

Same lmao

[agile cradle]

walking by and just going "ah well. should've got my gun license when i had the chance"

[smoky shell]

What do yall thing the G1 will be?

[delicate peak]

Erythristic timberdoodle when?

I want the red angry bird

[uneven bloom]

my guess is roe deer

[agile cradle]

sika is my wildcard

[uneven bloom]

I'll explode if it's sika

[agile cradle]

good or bad explode

[uneven bloom]

good explode

sika are still high on my faves list

[agile cradle]

it'd be such a power move ngl

[uneven bloom]

bowhunting them is one of my favorite things to do on Te

[agile cradle]

if not this map i feel it coming soon

they're finally getting more love

[delicate peak]

What other maps could they be on? I know they’re almost everywhere but still

[pine lily]

due to location maybe salz

otherwise just the coming scotland reserve and Te Awaora

[modest sparrow]

Still cant believe scotland is getting a map i cant wait to play it 😻

Would've gotten a remodel if it was

I hope its boar but prob is roe

[grand jetty]

This got nothing on Alberta chat

[weak smelt]

Alberta had nothing on sundar chat

[lone forge]

I agree, that's peak

[fierce bay]

Guys thats the new GO ?

[lone forge]

Idk but I love that

And there hunted irl

[real flame]

yes but why

[lone forge]

Sport.... I guess
They got a bit of meat I've seen people stuff them and wrap em in bacon before. I guess similar to a quail

[real flame]

oooooh

honestly I can see it, kinda like a quail or peasant

pheasant?

[lone forge]

Yes

[pine lily]

small meat bird like quail

also much easier to pluck, gut, then roast whole than say a turkey or goose

Or weird swedes eating breakfast

[pine lily]

[pine lily]

lol

[pine lily]

and i picked out hunting pack essentials/base stuff on black friday sales

one moment im grabbing da images

[real flame]

ah! so stuff like bags?

[lone forge]

Eberlestock sounds like an American trying to make a brand sound german af

[pine lily]

pack frame (gonna be packing out an animal so need a frame) 2 batwing style packs, a pack lid, a pair of game quarter bags, and two 5 liter dry bags

[real flame]

oooooooooo

hm, what rounds are generally used for pronghorn irl ?

rather than like, whatever nonsense COTW suggests

[pine lily]

anything from .243 winchest and similar 6mm rounds up to 300 win mag and 7mm rem mag

[real flame]

pronghorn here are class 3 aren’t they LOL

[pine lily]

yep

sadly

[real flame]

apparently .300 win mag is on par with the .375 for… reasons

[pine lily]

here's the pack frame

[real flame]

like I’m sorry but those guns are not in the same weight class, if anything the .300 should be switched to 4-9

[real flame]

oooh that’s for carrying the pronghorn right

[lone forge]

What is that used for? looks like one of those baby backpacks

[pine lily]

yup, and here's the batwing pack and pack lid

[pine lily]

fixing the backpack(s) to the frame and also packing out quartered out game

and then game quarter bags and dry bags

[pine lily]

but yeah, that's what I have on the way courtesy of my mom weaponizing her credit card in the name of christmas

for all checks notes $508.90 of equipment you just saw lmao

[real flame]

oooooooh

nice lmao

game quarter is like, after you’ve… what’s the word again

dissected?

[pine lily]

butchered or quartered both work

comes after field dressing/gutting

[real flame]

yeeee

yeah that tracks

does pronghorn make for good eating?

[pine lily]

yes, fantastically so; it just has to have been killed and prepared properly

[real flame]

ooooooooh

[pine lily]

you have to skin and quarter it in the field to reliably get good taste because theyre so warm

average body temp of 108 F

and if they run much at all adrenaline surge is nuts

[real flame]

ahhh and adrenaline makes the meat foul iirc

[pine lily]

yep, bitter or sour usually

[pine lily]

a lot of guys run em all over the place and on top of that load em whole into the truck and wait to gut or quarter til they're home

which is way too long

[real flame]

because it cools?

[pine lily]

opposite; it retains heat and begins to spoil rapidly as decomp starts in the guts and the intestines bloat

[real flame]

ahhhhhhhh

[limber cliff]

Cooks from within

Becomes a lil organ time bomb

[real flame]

LOL

[pine lily]

also doesnt help theyve got a super active microbiome so it happens even faster than with deer

and its why im gonna take a processing kit out with me to cut the bastard up out there then bring it back in pieces

[real flame]

do people eat organs of wild game…?

idk whether that’s a done thing or not

[weak smelt]

Allat and we still forced to use .257 on them

[pine lily]

usually the heart for most big game, have seen some guys take liver and kidney too

[real flame]

LOL

to be fair .257 and 7.62x39 go hard

[limber cliff]

In some cases yes -

[weak smelt]

True but... could just let us use 4-8s on them

[real flame]

true true, 4-8s need some love

[limber cliff]

Never seen people do like. .. stomach, intestine, lung type; but heart, liver and sometimes kidney I've seen

[real flame]

nah stomach and intestine is a def no-go, that stuff requires careful prep afaik

[pine lily]

i have heard of some people attempting at using the intestines for sausage casings but they were master butchers who knew what they were doing

[real flame]

wouldn’t trust wild organ meat to not have parasites or other nasties

[pine lily]

and they also said it was too much damn effort

for not enough payoff

[real flame]

LOL yeah

[weak smelt]

I'm sure people used to eat the brains too

[real flame]

I’d imagine you may as well just use modern sausage casings

[real flame]

ain’t there some kind of prion brain disease for deer 😭

[pine lily]

yeah, at a point they were used in soups

but now theyre only sometimes taken for tanning

[pine lily]

CWD or chronic wasting disease

[weak smelt]

I mean i have an old 1880s cookbook and like half of the soups involve calf head or lambs head

[real flame]

yeahhhhh

[weak smelt]

Flavor

[pine lily]

never jumped to people yet but yknow

[real flame]

tbf calf/lamb head is different cos that’s livestock, that and it flavours the soup

[limber cliff]

Yeah but we have our own version

[pine lily]

i suppose there is also an equivalent prion in sheep thats never jumped to people despite it being known for around 1000 years but

me no like take chances

[real flame]

and yeah nah, CWD is terrifying and the prospect of it jumping to humans is just- nah

[pine lily]

this is why CWD testing is important

[weak smelt]

Seems like half the people here have it

[pine lily]

I also just realized this is scotland chat lmao

[real flame]

LOL me too

back to scotlanddddd

[weak smelt]

It's in the new update🤞

[pine lily]

actually speaking of scotland, what species are you most excited about?

[real flame]

so what should we expect for the highlands

[pine lily]

and Tyk what species are you most excited for

[limber cliff]

To be higher than the lowlands

[real flame]

honestly I’m a basic bich for this, but red deer

[pine lily]

heather moorland, valleys, and open windswept semialpine meadows

[limber cliff]

Expect low, be surprised when it surpasses

[pine lily]

for me its badger

[real flame]

oooh moorland

Hound of the Baskervilles…..

[weak smelt]

Virginia would've been a better sika deer map tbh...

[real flame]

class 2 I assume?

[pine lily]

probably?

[real flame]

idk I tend to prefer larger game in general

[pine lily]

idk if theyd be class 3 since beaver are larger

[real flame]

anything small is finicky imo

[pine lily]

and like

theyre class 2

[limber cliff]

The little weezies!

[pine lily]

marten and mink are both goated

[weak smelt]

Marten and mink def class 1

[limber cliff]

I wanna see them bouncing through the grass

And the woodcock

[pine lily]

i wanna see if the mink have unique feed zones

cause the trailer showed them diving and said they dive to hunt fish or smth

[limber cliff]

I need to hear the
-# MEEP

[pine lily]

like small beaver analogue

[pine lily]

reminder of Mel's meme

ohp wrong one

it didnt copy

ill leave that for the meme

i screwed up counting earlier

[lone forge]

They do, depends on region tho

[pine lily]

i honestly think youre gonna have a great time with the map icl

i know im hyped af

[pine lily]

heart is almost universally popular and depending on who you ask liver and kidney are both good

dunno if anyone does lung cause disease risk

[weak smelt]

Anyways idk what freak event happened but we're getting snow in november

Which hasn't happened in like.. at least 10 years

[pine lily]

Wednesday of this week here in CO

[pine lily]

lord

[weak smelt]

And then snow again later this week

[limber cliff]

It's raining.

[pine lily]

i assume youre happy to see woodcock on this map, i havent really seen you talk much about it lol

[lone forge]

Peent

[weak smelt]

Yuh

Any birds i'm happy about

[real flame]

OOOOH yeah

[weak smelt]

Sad there's no shoveler but still

[real flame]

I’m an English lit student so I’m hyped to see how many dumb references make it in lol

[pine lily]

lmao

[pine lily]

thats valid, cool duck species we couldve gotten for sure

[lone forge]

One time I got invited by a samí, they gave me reindeer calve liver, respect to them and I tried it but God.... I had some other reindeer stuff tho tagt was better

[stiff hornet]

Gimme a G1 Roe so I can put him on those stupid little round platforms in the back room in Seseka

[pine lily]

lmfao

[lone forge]

I love those, I never have enough big little round platforms

[stiff hornet]

I have one that I’m keeping for my Fox and one I’m keeping for roe/tahr

[lone forge]

Generally I never have enough small game space so I switched to medver mansion or what that's called

[weak smelt]

Rocky mountain oysters🥹

[stiff hornet]

Spring Creek?

[lone forge]

Haven't hunted a that in like at least 14 hours, reminds me of how fire we need actual mountain hunting

[lone forge]

Ah yes, that's what it is called

[weak smelt]

I love my spring creek

[stiff hornet]

I no joke saw this on TikTok 30 minutes ago

[pine lily]

youre in virginia that could actually be a creek

[lone forge]

I do as well, can't wait for more customization!

Tho it's a bit dim in there ay

[weak smelt]

Crik

[pine lily]

sub schrader

[stiff hornet]

Not much, got my G1 wolf taken down tonight

[pine lily]

im sitting here tryna actually be productive lmao, i did good work today but somehow dont feel like it was enough

[lone forge]

It feels like forever oll unc Schrader has been around, like sundarpatan

Sundarpatan is still goated idc what people say

[stiff hornet]

I feel you there

[lone forge]

Tho it should've been far more alpine and im convinced they could've done that easily at least a bit

And the distributions for tahr and the absence of game birds... Anyway I still love it very much

[stiff hornet]

I’ve been around here since just after EC released

[real flame]

real but it requires a certain mood for the brush

[lone forge]

Im always in the mood for brush

Except when I wanna do mountains

[stiff hornet]

Tahr distribution is my biggest issue with Sundar. I’ve kinds made peace with the lack of small game since I can’t seem to get a diamond of the only new small game that came with that map. Stupid hares.

[pine lily]

my crazy ass dueling tigers with a menagerie of weapons including but not limited to: the .45-70 lever action, the .45-70 pistol, the .454 revolver, the .470 double rifle, and the longbow

[lone forge]

Then I go srp and get sad about how much mountain hunting sucks....

[pine lily]

that hare was my first dime on Sundar lmao

[lunar ingot]

shouldnt u be in albequerqe? however u spell it…

[finite wagon]

Using weapons that start with 4 just to kill tigers

[pine lily]

Albuquerque

[lone forge]

I still don't have them and I have shot so many

[lone forge]

Isn't that the breaking bad town?

[lunar ingot]

thank u honse

[pine lily]

i found one randomly and shot it in the ass with a 12GA lol

[lunar ingot]

no autocorrext and 7am isnt my friend

[lone forge]

Jealousy

[stiff hornet]

Yes, never go there if you visit the US.

[pine lily]

yeah, partly cause it does unironically have a massive meth problem

and murder problem

violent crime in general problem

[lone forge]

Oh shoot

[pine lily]

property crime in general problem

[lunar ingot]

wait does it acc???

[lone forge]

But I feel like the entire us has a massive drug problem

[stiff hornet]

It’s like Tucson if it sucked more

[lone forge]

Oh I know that town, the Dalai Lama had a bunch of talks there

[lunar ingot]

tuscon???? arizona?????

https://tenor.com/view/paul-mccartney-hey-baby-flirting-wings-the-beatles-gif-24286228

[pine lily]

in different ways yes, but theres a list of probably 8 or 9 cities that are where it concentrates

[stiff hornet]

Yeah, where I was born unfortunately

[lunar ingot]

so jojo changed his name to hank… interesting

[lone forge]

My mom once went to Los Angeles and she said there was junkys and homeless people everywhere and you can't take a walk nowhere even if it's just 30 minutes away. So either she got unlucky or the us is just a mess

[limber cliff]

-# The problem is, she went to LA.

[pine lily]

yeah thats LA

[lunar ingot]

icl every town is bad if u go to the bad places. i love liverpool but if i go to the wrong places its gunna be bad. same for every town/city in the world really

[stiff hornet]

That’s about the best thing that goes on there. Whenever I visit I tend to stay around the suburbs instead of being in Tucson. I don’t get sketched out easily but Downtown Tucson is sketchy.

[lunar ingot]

ik america is slightly WORSE in its bad but still

[lone forge]

It's kinda where you go as a tourist in America...

[pine lily]

its like how Denver as a whole is a pretty nice city and general metro area, just stay away from some pockets of Colfaxe Ave. and the entirety of Commerce City

I cannot stress this enough if any of you ever go to Colorado

[limber cliff]

Arguably, better places to be found - but I guess I can see the appeal

[pine lily]

AVOID COMMERCE CITY

AT ALL COSTS

IT IS COLORADO'S ALBUQUERQUE

except it also has pre-1970s levels of pollution and the KKK

no im not joking, CC has an active Klan chapter

they burn crosses on the shoulder of US Hwy 76 Westbound into the city

[lone forge]

I mean im from Berlin Kreuzberg and she's from a village in the forest so we are used to different kinds of messed up

[stiff hornet]

Also quick advice from a guy who spent a lot of time in AZ, AVOID WILCOX. Wilcox is the worst place on planet earth. Go to Winslow or Benson instead if you want decent small towns. Hell, Safford is better, but avoid Wilcox.

[lone forge]

Just avoid Frankfurt if you come to germany

Then everything will be chill

[stiff hornet]

Almost had to fly there on a layover to Portugal but Paris was cheaper…frankly I would’ve preferred Frankfurt…

[lunar ingot]

i would honestly love to go to germany i cant lie, it always seems like a pretty nice place

in my mind its the uk if it was interesting… so kinda like every european country

[pine lily]

ive heard the airport in Frankfurt is designed like a labyrinthian evil

[limber cliff]

Yes.

It is.

[stiff hornet]

Idk Charles De Gaulle Airport is a haven if you like brutalist looking garbage. Whole thing is just a big concrete dome with terrible lighting, and pompous Parisians everywhere. Should’ve just flown into Bern or Madrid instead.

[pine lily]

lmao

[pine lily]

ah so like my university library but less square and with french people

[stiff hornet]

Pretty much. The worst part was the French people frankly. Even the customs guys were just overly pompous and did that stupid laugh when they checked my passport.

Although I would like to get to Southern France one day, I hear they’re pretty Nice.

[limber cliff]

It has gates A through Z.
You know where you ALWAYS end up when you fly international? Z
You know where your dang connection is?? A

YOU KNOW HOW MUCH TIME YOU HAVE TO GET THERE? None

Every time I go there I'm giving myself and asthma attack trying to scamper from one end, through the border check/passport stamp thing, to the other end

Get to the gate and sit down just in time for them to go "teehee we now will begin boarding~"

[pine lily]

breh

thats evil

[limber cliff]

I mean it's nice but also, pray to whatever pantheon that you aren't delayed in any form

[real flame]

LOL

I specced out of bows so idk how good the Houyi will be now >.>

[pine lily]

railgun with arrows

for 700s and 540s at least

[real flame]

even without the bow perks??

[pine lily]

yeah just less-so

diet railgun

[lunar ingot]

i like how there was the name brutalist put to it as if it shouldnt just be called terrible. only cos i cant type the word i want in here

[limber cliff]

I need Scotland to be an epic roe map

And sika

The whole map. All of it needs to be epic.

[midnight valve]

Just dont be like my buddy and miss a roe we've tried too shoot 3 different times now 🤣

Gonna go see if I can catch up too him now.

I AM not handing the rifle over this time.

[limber cliff]

Lort... lmao

Good luck 🤣
I have faith you're the better shot

[midnight valve]

Was like a 180 shot off sticks so I decided hey buddy wanna shoot this? and he smacked the rock above it 🙄

Gonna stop handing him the rifle like the last two deer I've asked him too shoot he's missed 😬

[limber cliff]

Hand him reading glasses as a joke before handing him the rifle

[lament vault]

Lmao

[lone forge]

Germany is very nice just not Frankfurt

[midnight moon]

Visit the South and the West, not the East

[lone forge]

nah the east is great

very nice nature, sächsische schweiz, ostsee and also nice citys like dresden, berlin, potsdam and leipzig

[real flame]

ooof, though would you say lightning hands is a worthy trade off for the bow perks

[jovial jolt]

OST DEUTSCHLAND for life

I love the DDR

It’s my home

[manic cliff]

wtf bro

[jovial jolt]

What dude

I’m literally from east Germany

[manic cliff]

good for you

but what has your statement to do with the new scotland map

lookup rule number 4

[verbal peak]

Nobody talks about Scotland on here anyway

[jovial jolt]

Ohhhhhhhhtrue my bad king

[lone forge]

https://tenor.com/view/trabant-gang-car-gif-25636514

Trabbi isn't a car it's a lebensgefühl

[lament vault]

Frfr

[limber cliff]

Y'all probably should

[jovial jolt]

Scotland is in east Germany

Does that count

[limber cliff]

No not really 😭

When they make another Germany Map we can go ham on Germany 3.0 discussion

[lament vault]

🤔

[little verge]

[limber cliff]

https://tenor.com/view/theworldmayneverknow-idk-goodquestion-gif-5415227

[lament vault]

lol

[jade thicket]

[little verge]

[lunar ingot]

they have a LOT to answer for

[hollow tundra]

https://tenor.com/view/animal-funny-drinking-shower-cat-gif-12009072

[lunar ingot]

me lapping up every bit of content EW releases

[kind lava]

GO reveal today?

[lunar ingot]

it will obv be tomorrow

as if they would treat us a day early

[shrewd finch]

I don't think so

[near dune]

The worst part is it'll be at least a week once they announce the release date. I don't want to wait. Release it now.

[paper locust]

That's marketing for you. Blame the attention span of people lol

[limber cliff]

I thought we already knew the release date though

[paper locust]

We do. Tomorrow will be the 1 week mark

[fierce bay]

Just realized

Early Access vids are comming this friday

[fierce bay]

Next week on tiesday is the Release date. 9th of december

[runic ether]

I cant wait!

[fierce bay]

Only four days to wait for the early Access Videos too

[runic ether]

That's what I'm pumped about

Aswell as the map ofc

I wonder if its visuals in game will be as good as in the trailers

[fierce bay]

I Sure hope so

[runic ether]

Wait I thought they got it 1 week in advance? So they should get access tommorow if I'm not mistaken

[fierce bay]

I still have hope foxes will get burrows too with this update

[paper locust]

They probably get it tomorrow but can't post anything for a few more days

[runic ether]

That would be cool but I dont think they will.

[runic ether]

That makes more sense

[paper locust]

Embargos are fun

[runic ether]

Lowk lucky sods

[fierce bay]

Depends on which day theyre getting it, but they are allowed to Release it some time on friday

[runic ether]

Would love to get early access

[runic ether]

Ah alr

[paper locust]

I applied to their general thing on lurkit but its been a hot minute since I've made anything so I'm not holding my breath 😅

[runic ether]

I would make vids on it but I dont have any equipment 😭

And I'm on ps4 so it would be difficult

[paper locust]

Yeah console recording is a whole process. Been there done that

[near dune]

Lmao, called it.

[radiant wren]

Wait what
What are we “calling”

[paper locust]

Good question

[near dune]

That when they announced the dlc date it'd be the next week.

At least its not end of december

[paper locust]

I admit I'm still confused lol

[radiant wren]

Oh. They actually released it a couple weeks ago

We’ve known for a while it’s the 9th

[long spade]

We've known for like 2 weeks already dude

They announced the date in the teaser trailer

[paper locust]

Yeah the official date reveal was last Tuesday but we knew for like a week before that lol

[radiant wren]

Gotta love leaks lol /jk

[paper locust]

Some unfortunate choices were made lol

[worldly shard]

day 10 of hoping for demoman referense

[runic ether]

Keep dreaming 🥀

[long spade]

Leaks yeah stuff happens but its always gonna be Tuesdays. Any realeses or updates ar gonna be Tuesdays. Its just how they operate,

[paper locust]

I mean we've had non Tuesday content for reveals

There's a whole "marketing math" behind the reveal date decision making

[worldly shard]

ceep movin lads

[long spade]

Reveals yeah but its generally a Tuesdays for most anything

[runic ether]

Freedoooommmm

[radiant wren]

So it’s more like Tuesdays but also maybe any other day lol

[paper locust]

Yes exactly

As for the update/patch day being Tuesday there's a set logic behind that as well. Monday is the final confirm everything is ready to fly. Tuesday release. Wednesday is gathering reports and tackling emergency fixes if needed. Thursday/Friday covering any follow up necessary fixes before the weekend.

That's why a lot of games choose to only update Mon-Wed and avoid Thurs-Fri

[radiant wren]

For sure. I love Tuesday updates lol there’s a reason they’re the norm for most

[worldly shard]

demomans botle in like an outpost or cabin would be SOOO COOL

[paper locust]

Cause... bugs over the weekend are no good

[long spade]

Anyone like the blinds in game? I mean are they something you use.

[radiant wren]

Bro I don’t think demoman is coming to the game lol

Yes I love the blinds. Waterfowl especially

[worldly shard]

[paper locust]

I like the treestands more if I've got cover

[near dune]

Turns out I am unobservant, my bad lol

[radiant wren]

There were a few games I had played that updated on Thursdays.

I don’t play them anymore. Lol

[long spade]

I just ordered 2 blinds and im wondering if they'd be good in game

[paper locust]

I was excited to discover that leaving the treestand does not spook animals within a close radius

[radiant wren]

Oh hell yeah lol

Yeah I use em all the time, they’re dope

[paper locust]

It's how I got my fox bow kill on Hirsh lol. Climbed down basically right on top of it at the water lol

[long spade]

Elevated blinds, five feet off the ground to clear ground cover but hide you better than a tripod. Im setting them up on an elk wallow

[radiant wren]

Oh nice
Yeah there’s some structures like that in game ya can use

There’s also covered blinds that look almost exactly like that except they aren’t elevated

[dusky wolf]

And tuesdays are my last day of the work week for me fortunately so that’s a bonus

[radiant wren]

Woot woot

[long spade]

They're permanently placed and almost entirely useless in almost every spot they happen to be in unless you use the feeders. These would be mobile

[radiant wren]

I’ve personally used them with much success before feeders ever came out 😅 because I didn’t have the dlc
Some of them are placed in not so ideal areas but most are placed in wider open areas where animals do travel a lot between zones

Just gotta find the good spots like with anything

Either way yes there’s dlc lol

[paper locust]

Yeah and the placement benefits vary a lot per person. My husbands map has some beautiful blind placements with where his animals travel while mine are dead lol. But I've got good spots elsewhere he doesn't have

[radiant wren]

My god. Yeah. My friend has some areas on his map that are FULL of animals, meanwhile mine is DEVOID lol 😅

[long spade]

I have literally one permanent blind in Hirschfelden that has a feedzone within 300 yards. The rest have no zones in sight

[radiant wren]

Dang that’s haaaarsh bahahaha

Or that’s… hirsch 😏

[limber cliff]

Debating on closing the window, it's chilly up in here

[dusky wolf]

I’m hoping the new GO won’t have awful furs like the mule deer

[pine lily]

so ima kindly warn you to stop trolling lmao

singular warning

[paper locust]

I'm just excited to see what the G1 will be honestly

[limber cliff]

"awful" 😭

[worthy shell]

i congratulated her "joke"

[pine lily]

i aint doing it a second time 💀

[worthy shell]

how is that trolling

🥀

[pine lily]

dont play dumb with me im fully aware of the tone you're pulling 💀

[radiant wren]

😒Hasn’t anyone ever heard of closing the gosh darn window (to the tune, you know which)
Jk I fully support

[worthy shell]

yea wtv thats means twin

✌️

[dusky wolf]

I feel like ever since we got the GO mule deer furs we’ve gotten these random furs that make no sense

Acromelanistic and mosaic moose

The stripes on the razor wind GO wolf

And the mosaic desert bighorn (albeit I’m more lenient given the black spots is present in the ovis genus and there was a guy a while back who got into trouble for breeding hybrid bighorn sheep with domestic sheep)

[radiant wren]

Why is littlun arguing with a mod

[limber cliff]

😂 I leave it open cos the apartment feels stuffy all day

[radiant wren]

Why do they think this is ever a good idea lol

[pine lily]

eh, beats me

[limber cliff]

but also it got full dark at 4pm, so .. Now its cold, the sun is gone

[worthy shell]

how am i arguing twin

[radiant wren]

Oh god. That’s been the case here too. And I feel it on the window open 😂 ya need the crisp air dang it

[dusky wolf]

Imo mosaic should have just been mocha and acromelanistic should have just been leusistic

[limber cliff]

• mosiacism happens, iirc its something to do with chimaera genes?
  • Can't speak for acromelanism
• literally just an aardwolf in greywolf form. It's not an unnatural pattern - just some fun being had by the art team

[radiant wren]

Ya know, the only reason I’m fine with the weird ones is because well… they’re fabled. They’re not all meant to be realistic. Some are, but they’ve been releasing realistic furs alongside the weird ones. Kinda feels like there’s options for everyone in that way
I’m not too mad about it

Someone could get their drip drizzle and a petal puff if they want bahaha

[dusky wolf]

I prefer when they make more subdued and subtle GOs

[radiant wren]

Yes!! I wasn’t aware mosaicism was essentially what calicos and tortoiseshells have. Quite cool

[limber cliff]

And frankly, we get all the normal furs with regular critters
lame af imo if we ONLY have boring bog standard 'same dog different day' level furs

[radiant wren]

Valid. Hopefully they keep the trend of adding a few weird looking ones and a few more mellow designs

[paper locust]

I hope the boar designs are wild tbh

[limber cliff]

Personally, I guess it just doesn't bother me. The GOs are so out of my league in chances of acquiring that I dont really care what the art team decides to do for fun and funky stuff

[radiant wren]

I’m intrigued what they cook up for boar, for sure

[dusky wolf]

Would one say hog wild?

[limber cliff]

We need a chungus

[dusky wolf]

As long as it’s not too crazy cus there is such a thing as too much

I was trying to find a boar gif and found this. Can we do this with the g1

[viscid jolt]

Please PLEASE

[radiant wren]

My strong steed

[paper locust]

nevah

[viscid jolt]

Look .. I really rock with roe deer but the amount of absolutely wild things you can do with boars if the art team wishes would be awesome

[dusky wolf]

I want a fur based off of a Berkshire boar or British saddleback as a reference to animal farm

For GO boar

With the GO boar they could have a lot of furs that don’t look too outlandish ngl

[paper locust]

But I want outlandish

I want G1 wolf style wild with that boar pizazz

[dusky wolf]

Would be cool to see a GO boar with white spots as an example

I can see one being based off of a red river hog

If it is boar being the GO

or hell give it stripes

Or a big Mohawk on the back

I’m wondering if boars will get TRUtusks now

[radiant wren]

I sure freakin hope so

Would love them to be more aggressive too. I beg of it

[limber cliff]

send photo please

[dusky wolf]

Napoleon is a saddleback in the animated film

However he’s a Berkshire in the live action and novel

[limber cliff]

ohh okay

[dusky wolf]

Berkshire

[lament vault]

Bush pig❤️

[dusky wolf]

Hell maybe we can see a mangalizta pig inspired GO

[lament vault]

Best wild bacon

[lament vault]

I’ve seen some guys butcher some and it’s very interesting

[dusky wolf]

Or have one with its baby markings like the GO red deer

[limber cliff]

stripey boar would go so hard

[paper locust]

Oh like this?
-# which i was already about to share as something id love to see in a g1 boar

[dusky wolf]

Could have a silver colored pig

[dusky wolf]

That’s not bad

For a fur

[lament vault]

The babies perfect roast size

[dusky wolf]

I also kind of wish the feral pigs/wild hogs also got a rework given their essentially the same animal

Hell sometimes it’s hard to tell which is which irl if you don’t look carefully outside of coat color

[lament vault]

Frfr

[dusky wolf]

They’re even listed as the same species Ingame in the codex

[lament vault]

🤔

@neat flint how you doing?

[dusky wolf]

Also hoping blacktail gets a GO

[lament vault]

They just need some rework love

[dusky wolf]

And I kind of wish the antlered GOs could have GOs with common furs ngl

[neat flint]

All good Jerry, Just on a mad Turkey hunt atm - Trying to find the albino I have..

[dusky wolf]

Warthogs and peccaries need reworks aswell

[lament vault]

Nice

[lament vault]

Ye

[dusky wolf]

Actually geese need reworks aswell

Their models and animations are off

The greylags and bean geese have too long and slender necks

[finite wagon]

They are the same animal, just different names across the maps, like puma in parque and mtn lion in srp

[dusky wolf]

I meant they got a rework along side the boars

[dusky wolf]

I think the last base game species that need reworks are

Euro bison, jackrabbits, blacktail, Roosevelt elk and coyote I think

The coyotes still look off

And the merriam turkeys need a remaster

Fox could do with another rework ngl

They still look fake

As in not convincing looking

[radiant wren]

Is it… is it wrong to say I think the red fox also has the sort of… yass-ified effect

[dusky wolf]

No your right

[radiant wren]

Some of it looks realistic and the rest just looks too… good?

[paper locust]

Listen. The fluff is fluffing

[radiant wren]

Like too perfect
