Imagine if people bet on the outcome of our Rites and I was at the center of a massive match-fixing scandal

the imps bet on everyone at the same time
How well does the game run on steam link? I’m thinking it might be a good bedside tablet game but idk how much controls are required
Played enough to see that controls needs a bit of a learn
Thanks NX ☺️ I prefer more relaxed couch type games which is why I’d love Pyre on the switch but I know they didn’t port it cuz it was difficult :p
No prob. just started playing it (and currently at 2.5 hours of play time!)
been wondering, i just bought pyre, can i play multi?
There is a single-player campaign mode that alternates story-heavy visual novel-style segments with sports segments and there is a separate multiplayer mode to play the sports matches against the AI or a human opponent.
I think everything's unlocked from the get-go in the multiplayer mode so I would recommend playing the story mode first to avoid big spoilers.
cool thanks ^^
There is a server called rite club where you can play multiplayer over steam remote play if your interested
Oh yeah sure
I can put the invite in self promo just a sec
I put the link in #self-promotion if you wanna check it out
Thanks
It's also pinned in this channel
Woah, Volfred talking caught me wayy off guard
SAME
hey guys
im having fps issues in pyre
my pc ran hades at a near constant 60 fps but pyre is always in 20-30 range
did that
hmm,strange
Do you have a multi GPU setup or at least an integrated GPU in your CPU and a Graphics card?
also turn off the apps that use the GPU intensively such as Wallpaper engine and etc..
i have an integrated gpu and a dedicated one, and i checked which pyre was using. and sure enough it was my dedicated being used
i have wallpaper engine running
ill try quitting it
Exit then try again
No probs, LMK if you run into issues again
thank you!
volfred being like "i too can read" was just like oh snap
More like oh hello
man i really need to replay pyre
Me tooooo I need to go back to my TN playthrough...
Don't we all?
I heard there were talks of a TTRPG adaptation
If anyone knows about this lmk, I’d love to help out or just be able to play it
Its being run by a streamer named lidsvids, i can put his server link in #self-promotion @vast solstice
Its adapted from the game ghost lines
Its still being fiddeled with but there are (I think) weekly playtest of them
Is there a pdf or anything or still unreleased? And thanks I’ll check him out tomorrow.
They have a pdf on the server, but its not really "released"
I really need this game on Switch 😩
Same!
SGG keeps saying it's impossible for Pyre to go to Switch but I still want to believe
Maybe it'll be a Christmas miracle...
idk how the switch controll are - would they be compatible with the gameplay?
I've worked it out, and there are enough buttons for it
I don't have one, so I can't really say
I just think it'd be super cool to just hand someone the other Joycon and play Versus right there
It would be virtually the same as on a xbox or steam controller as only 4 buttons, a trigger, and an analog stick are used
Which can work for half a joycon
it's not a matter of control scheme, each time it's been answered it was a question of engine/technical stuff compatibility iirc
though it would be awesome
just bought the game
You're in for a treat. c:
Okay guys
I finished the game
And now I played every game by SGG
AND I LOVED IT
IMO it has the best story and visuals
But I bought Transistor on switch and have to replay it to decide where on top list will it be
But needless to say
I chose || full plan version of the story || and I have few questions
What if || you liberate Tamitha and Pamitha || and || is it possible that plan won't be executed || ?
Also I'm curious what were your orders in liberating
Mine was || Headwyn, Sir Giliam, Fae, Rokey, Pamitha, Jordalier and Ti'zo at last||
So, the part of each character's ending that's tied to another character has different details whether they're up or down, but it usually follows the same gist: the big difference is whether they end up together or they end up separated. For the sisters,
ending up together (regardless of whether they're up or down) ||means that Pamitha tries to reconcile, Tamitha assaults her and cripples her wing. After THAT, they remain extremely cold but, like, 'at least' on speaking terms. It sort of gives Pam what she wanted but at the cost of being able to fly.||
Bitter sweet. I like it
The plan ||is always executed, but the number of liberated exiles determines how peaceful it is. There's the peaceful ending, the riot ending if you get less than six Nightwings up and the bloodshed ending if you barely send anyone up.||
So you ended ||chilling with Bertrude and Volfred (and hopefully Sandra)? Hah, if Oralech's alive, that'd be pretty much my Reader's ideal outcome... NICE||
Okay, then pacifist part myself is super happy
Yea I was super happy with ending too. But I wondered for a long time which one I should || liberate at last Volfred or Ti'zo but after liberating Fae I had to let Ti'zo go ||
What if you || let Oralech go||?
Yesssss me too! I have spent quite some time thinking about my ideal ending conditions and the one constant is that they have to result in peace...
||He's stunned for a moment as he sees his dream fulfilled and starts either chanting and marching (peaceful) or tending to the wounded (riot or bloodshed), generally becomes chief physician in the Union. Has endings with Ti'zo and/or Volfred!||
I had also one moment of wonder. ||When Pam asked me to let Tam go while she was fighting in the liberation rites. I had "wait a minute" face ||
That's so charged, I love it
That's deffinetly nicer than ||suicide||
||There's a third option! Under some conditions, he can just get a Downside ending like all other remainers. Still has endings with Ti'zo and Volfred||
Oh wow. Really? That would be the best option there
Mere distance cannot separate our spirits!
Alright , three hours later
Sure I expected it to be a little bit Bittersweet, BUT NOT LIKE THIS
Ending, ||only Pamita ,
, and the moon-touched girl (I named her Fae) remained ,I choose myself because that Voice was annoying af||
Blanket*
I'm continuing getting SGGames
I'm coming for 
Good game. Feels slow after all these years and there innovations in other games
The game was a bit repetitive thru the stars but hey, other aspects covered this issue
Kudos to whoever said that the Pyre OSTs are better
they are, especially the Liberation Rite duet
annnd, clocked in at 14 hours....
Game feels waaay longer than 
like I can finish
in under 5 hours or so
anyway
GG to SGG for yet another spectacular game
and remember

don't wake him up
Unless there's fish 
I’m here!
What are you looking for?
Gimme what’d you want
Okay say long story short I'm searching for the optimal setting to run Pyre on mac, My laptop is higher than the minimu requirements but I can't get the game to stop quitting randomly
Hmmm, are you sure you updated your mac and the game to the latest update ?
Also toning down will not harm neither the game nor the laptop
I have updated to the latest and turned down the graphic as much as possible
I've also closed every other application running while I play, to no avail
Does it crash the moment you run the app?
If that’s so, I’d suggest you create a new user account specifically made for the game then check
No, it crashes during gameplay, in the middle of a Rite it'll suddenly close or during Sandra's trails or even a practice Rite
There's no problem with start up
Hmmm
Create another campaign
is there no way for us to stream in this discord server? theres no voice channel?
Unfortunately
aww, okay, thx for the info man
I'm really far in but alright at least I get to see Hedwyn again
@sleek star Started and new campaign, still crashed
Strange...
Oh well, talk this through with the Tech supports and I hope they'll resolve it for you
Thank you
No prob.
It's a really good game, I'm enjoying it a lot, despite the issues
Shame that It doesn't run well
Let's hope for the best

I can't wait
I'm here if you need any help!
along with others
I almost have all the Supergianr games
this one is gonna be different
your play it through at your pace
and again if you need any help, ask it in #transistor
You're welcome!
good
Now go on fourth with the "magic usb sword' or reading books/seeing stars for the boys
What if the commonwealth is cloudbank?
Lol will do @sleek star
How cloudbank will include the exiled into the downside part
one thing for sure

these two must exist if the universes intertwined
True
now I must wait for an artist to draw tariq and red together singing
Ooo
kristin² you're saying?
didnt?
the ^2
squared?
Alt Gr and 2
idk how that button is called on other keyboards
the one you use to do @
I have a ten key-less keyboard 
shift two
Same
Thinking about it more
Kristin but one is singing with a guitar
and the other sings with a mic and sound robot-y
That would be cool
Oh wait i just found out
Ashley was the singer for Celeste, but Kristin was the speaking(much like Red)
yeah, unicode characters
i dont know, but they do
yeah, they do apparently
for the unicode geeks out there who uses Word processing apps often than the most of us
i cant really imagine who would make much use of it
i guess for like math notation and stuff
but there are easier ways to type them
one usage I found it really neat is for cOoL usernames
ooo
and have an accent on the letters themselves
like é?
but... thats what the accent button is for.......
you press it and then the vowel.........
my keyboard doens't have it
;_;
yeah
neither do I
U.S keyboards don't default have it
so you'd add your own
or use these weird combination of Alt+4letters to get what you want
ye
so confusing
what is on the US keyboard that i dont have then?
since they should both take the same amount of keys
I think MacOS allows you to type these without adding another layout
which is neat, but I don't understand any Left-to-right language except for english
left-to-right huh
yes
which languages were right to left again? arabic, japanese kinda and hindu right?
well, a lot are, do you mean scripts?
scripts?
In a right-to-left, top-to-bottom script (commonly shortened to right to left or abbreviated RTL), writing starts from the right of the page and continues to the left, proceeding from top to bottom for new lines. This can be contrasted against left-to-right writing systems, where writing starts from the left of the page and continues to the righ...
this is so outside of anything i know i am confused ;-;
like alphabets
now you have a little bit of extra knowledge about how other languages work in computer
Like, french is a left to right laguage, but it has the same roman/latin alphabet
yes
i know that far
i know that chinese and arabic get written right to left because i used to learn those languages
but else i am just confused
wait, used to?
yes

i have an arabic ex who tried teaching me arabic and learned chinese in school
this is getting kind of off topic, please move to #off-topic-discussion to continue this conversation
sry alma
got it
sorry
Is uuh... Is everyone hot in pyre?
we have a few disney princess candidates on our hands
and chris saphire voiced somebody
Cyrus Nemati also voices a few people
I think there's some more variety and also plenty of very inhuman-looking characters, from very mild monster girls to furry-tier to "a worm with a big eye" (although I'm sure Sir Gilman is very hot for a wyrm!)
Plenty of hot people all across the board though, I'd say.
i'm just saying: orb wife is life
Yeah yeah yeah
“Very hot for a wyrm” 🤭 that’s a funny way to say it
who wouldnt love that passion filled lad
he's got some charming scars too XD
So I just finished Pyre and all I can say is wow. I cried a little
Haha thanks
erumi321 be like "Congratulations on being sensitive!" and that's ok 
I mean, I cried at the end too and I think that can be celebrated
Oh, Wight 
is pyre any good?
Finish the collection
you can do it
this game maybe the farthest in terms of the 3 other games
if you like a visual novel fantasy basketball game, yes
if not: still yes
i sea
Pyre is very good.
It's super niche, but like all of SGG's games the amount of polish put into the game shines through no matter what.
If nothing else, it's just as absurdly pretty as their other games.
Yeah. The environment design is on point
ngl, the basketball part make me a bit frustrated
when the wyrms becomes so fast after you enable a titan star or two
but the Liberation rite music is so calm yet so good
Pyre Community Rite Nite (multiplayer Pyre) starts in 1 hour!
Watch at https://www.twitch.tv/lidsvids and/or join the Rite Club server (https://discord.gg/XHTtNGe) to get involved!
The thing about Pyre is that you can lose every single Rite and still finish the game and have a unique and fulfilling experience
(I know people who have deliberately done a run where they threw every Rite, just to see how the plot and characters would adjust and respond to it 🤣 )
So, basically, it's okay if you're bad at Wizard Basketball? It's genuinely about the journey and The Friends You Make Along The Way(tm)
(Full disclosure, I've played all four SGG and it's my favorite. But I'm a sucker for Found Family tropes so it's chock-a-block with the good stuff afaic.)
Remember kids: always use Shooting star on Jodariel!
Doesn't matter is she's fast or not, yeeting that ball will delete them faster than Ti'zo
Jodi is a whole entire queen though 🤩
She's waay out of her league
The Most Wonderful
I'm still sad that I only got to cosplay her the one time before conventions uhhhh stopped being a thing
They'll become a thing again!
Vaccines are rolling out.
We're gonna have SO MANY Witcher and Hades characters next year.
True, it's not like I'm going to age out of that costume anytime soon
One more reason to love the increase in middle-aged female sci fi and fantasy characters in the last decade
"Oh, you mean we're moving away from middle age white guys and barely-out-of-high-school white chicks as our primary romance pairing?"
When I get old I'm so doing the Vuvalini from Mad Max Fury Road, I don't care how obscure and old that movie is by then
And maybe Bertrude while I'm at it
Mark my words, Fury Road will be more relevant in 50 years than the original movies.
Deep cuts for the young 'uns of 2055
the same way we've stopped caring about the Beatles after they were outdone by yet another band Okay, maybe we'll still be dealing with Mel Gibson fans in 2070.
Man, we're getting off-topic, but if you ever want to feel grim just look at a chart of the comparative ages of famous Hollywood actors and the actresses who play their love interests
I mean, yikes, friend 😰
One of the things I love about Pyre is that it does have such a variety of age and body type in its female characters compared to most games
Fingers crossed for the next SGG title to follow suit!
Sandra and Pamita are two awesome characters I loved
(and that one time when you spam the potion provided by pamita that she starts talking in a weird.... way
Unless the next game is also steeped in a mythology with, largely speaking, two body types, I bet we'll see a return to more diverse body types.
Yeah, I haven't met all the Olympians yet, but I've been kind of disappointed with the goddesses all being built like magazine models
That's Greek mythology.
I mean, is it though? Aphrodite certainly isn't shaped like that on any of the vases and statuary I've seen.
Ornstein and Smough from dark souls must have an appearance in the next game
Not that that build's automatically a problem, just saying, if Jen can make adjustments in one direction...
A lot of Greek artwork isn't terribly representative of actual humans, though. It's symbolic.
I'd love a really glamorously voluptuous Aphrodite or Demeter, get that fertility/harvest symbolism in there
Getting off-topic again though, I'd better hop this one to the Hades channel
Pyre Community Rite Nite (multiplayer Pyre) is live!

Update on my pyre progress: the wyrm knight ain't hot but hes so cute it makes up for it
Gilman is tied with Fae for the most pure character in the game.
Hes so pure... So cute
I think I shoved him to the front of my Liberation queue when I found out just how he was exiled.
Oooh no spoilers yet pls i just met him 
gilman is the real hero
I really liked Hades and enjoyed Bastion and Transistor, but have had a tough time getting into Pyre--unless I'm missing something, the roleplay elements are quite light. I don't mind the sports-based gameplay but it hasn't engaged me as rapidly as Supergiant's other games. Someone tell me what I'm missing
yeah it's a very unusual genre mix up
And the roleplaying is definitely light as you dont play as any main characters, your just on the side helping them
You're missing the opportunity to get to know a colorful cast of characters, which is the main appeal of the game - unlocking chunks of backstory and figuring out what makes these people tick.
It's got very strong visual novel elements and much of the same appeal. If that's not your thing - fair call. 🤣
I don't think that was quite what they meant when they said "tell me what I'm missing."
Ah - my bad, then. What do you think they meant?
You know, on a second read, I think you had it.
I may have come on a bit strong with it. 😅 I'll rephrase - in my experience, most (though certainly not all!) people who love Pyre, love it for its cast of NPCs and the VN-type interaction with them, rather than the Rites gameplay.
It makes sense that players who've come to SGG through Hades, which centered and refined its combat mechanics, might not gel well with Pyre, in which the main point is talking to everyone a bunch, and you can throw every match and still progress unimpeded to the finale.
There are players who love the Rites and have a lot of fun playing them! But when people rave about Pyre, they usually seem to do so about the writing, not the combat.
I don't think that's a dig on either game, they just cater respectively to different sets of player preferences.
I came from Transistor(it’s apparent, lol), SGG threw everything out the window with Pyre.
It’s cool to have more than one character speaking.
But it’s always a good thing when you learn that it’s similar to something like Rocket league or Overwatch’s Lucio Ball gamemode
Oh wow same, I'm wondering if i should get Hades too, i have all the others at this point
does anyone here know how long pyre is? im just past the part where ||you meet oralech and start to talk to sandalwood more about the older nightwings, and i believe im about to start my 4th liberation rite||, im not in a rush to finish the game, just curious
its definitely taken me longer than bastion or transistor but to be fair sports games arent usually a preferred genre of mine so ive had to go a lot of practice rites
you're far, but not far far yet
this gives me the same funny yet almost ominous vibes as someone who once commented "oh honey youve got a big storm coming" when i said pyre's music was good but hadnt made me cry like paper boats did
ayy, one of us too
it took me about 15 hours to beat it the first time, but it might be a little longer or shorter depending on your reading speed, how much of the book you read, how many practice rites you do and how much you take your time in general with stuff, etc
took me 13 hours , so it's waay longer
like with this many hours , I could play transistor both normal and NG+
(if you ever felt that the rites are difficult, reduce it)
im abt 16 hours in but i have spent a lot of time doing practice rites and just listening to the music in the wagon
the playstyles are so diverse its an adjustment for me for a lot of them
i usually stick to the faster characters like gilman, vagabond girl, and hedwyn and rukey
yeah!! i named her mae in my run
I named her fae
its so funny to me that like the fandom can be so split on what to call her bc the game lets you decide her name and you run with it for the entire game
thats so unique and creative yet so funny too
Dialogue-driven games!
^a game after my own heart
pyre plays so different from hades, bastion, and transistor but i love it sm
every game has captured my heart
I didn't expect to enjoy looking at sky or even at the ground since destiny 2
I love a cyberpunk or neon artstyles (hence the love for Transistor,
is always a bae)
but Pyre was so beautiful too
^^SAMEE i saw art of transistor before i knew abt the game and i instantly fell in love with it
thats part of why it has a very special spot in my heart
also the main character is a singer and i love music characters
for real, Paper boats is what caught me in
How can this Darren dude make different musics in different genres yet each is equally beautiful
seriously
his mind is on another plane of existence
it has to be bc the music just goes so hard in every game yet its all so different
LOL
its amazing
ive seen several of the "can we listen to something other than transistor OST" memes in the car and the person asking to switch the music gets thrown out the shotgun seat
I've seen that "I say we're winning" after playing a banger
also, here's another mediocre image for pyre
#fan-works message
LMAOOO
Jodariel can throw that like there's no tomorrow
I'll be sure to make one for the other games when I finish
you must
god that make me think of this https://starafire.tumblr.com/post/167591503243
i saw this for the first time the day i got ti'zo and my life just hasnt been the same
does it for the future of the nightwings
he's so adorable
ti'zo is undeniably a character you see and just want to protect 100%
Agreed
the entire pyre cast has that strong found family vibe to them and im not emotionally prepared to liberate them
i;m pretty sure there were a ton of onions when I saw ||hedwyn liberated||
that was the first person i sent up and i wasnt sad at first but the moment we returned to the wagon and it was notably more quiet i definitely cried
Tariq and Celeste makes the rite look like a fateful choice
then you found out that theres ||more than one liberation rite||
^^yeah
i love tariq and celeste sm tho
the ||liberation rites|| make me sad but seeing them side by side is smth i look forward to
yesssss theyre the best ;w;
ooooh do it
I need to see it
doooo iiiiit
Plans over here are still "Reader with Gilman prop" for me and (unlikely but it'd be neat) Tariq for my partner... 
do ittt
If anyone happen to do a cosplay or an artwork
never forget to mention me
My thirst for Transistor and Pyre artwork/cosplay will never be quenched
Link coming up in #fan-works then! c: oh and check @jodaaariel on Tumblr if you haven't already for a chonky archive of Pyre fanworks!
aw nice
also same here
I'm waiting on a lazy friend to draw a
for me
but he's too lazy
I told him to do it by his pace , and not to rush it
pyre

Pyre

Transistor
Transistor
pyre is stupid
I got yo flower, Ti'zo

Skreeeeeee
(hovering over the text reveals that: Ti'zo is excited for the flowers and he would love to take them)
Wait until true nightwing all titan stars
No thanks
I ve had about enough after the snake witches
Im still struggling with the controls honestly
Have you played on normal?
I just switched it, so i havent yet
Oh ok. Yeah, normal feels too easy, but lightened is too hard unless you've played enough, at least that's what it seems like to me
It gets harder, but after like 13 rites you can start to use titan stars which makes it a bunch harder
So like this games limiter and pop
basically
Unlike those ,i dont feel like i wanna touch that anytime soon
You can activate multiple stars at once iirc and it's just hell
You can do all at once, and in practice against lvl5 ai, you can just throw your computer out the window and hope you win
Oh no bruh I played this on the PS4
Oh. Throw that out the window too
I need to nuke my old save and start over on easy mode
I actually prefer PS4 controls for most games! My main problem was that I'm not super coordinated so even though I understood the mechanics, I couldn't execute what I wanted to do super well
you can change difficulty freely unless it’s true nightwing mode
Yeah. Pyre takes a while to be able to learn, and then it requires a lot of muscle memory as well as quick reflexes. I prefer controller on PC as mouse required me thinking about 2 things at once
I can't imagine trying to play on a PC. The control scheme for a controller is so natural and tbh mouse and keyboard tends to eff me up anyway
Yeah. Mouse and Keyboard is good as it offers a lot more precision.
I've found it also depends on the game. There's a handful where the minute I switch to a controller it just clicks and vice versa lol
Regardless, I'm gonna have the hardest choice to make on my next run: do I make Rukey shave or no
It's genuinely unsettling when i see him without it and the question comes so early on that I didn't feel like telling this poor dog man what do to lol
What does he even look like without it. I've never said he should shave it
I'm tryna find a picture
It works perfectly well with a controller on PC 👍 in fact I've been going through my Steam library with my trusted PS4 controller!
I prefer a xbox 360 controller. It's a lot easier to hold then the ps4 controlelr
To each their own. Xbox controllers sit awkwardly in my hands and I've never really like them
They're like just too big to be comfortable
I can see that
Took me like 6 years to find it, but mustacheless Rukey:

cursed
Oh god
oh no there's no hair on his hair
That’s the thing—I didn’t get that roleplaying aspect from Pyre so far. Maybe I just haven’t advanced far enough into the storyline yet. But it’s a big difference from say Hades where the backstory chatter comes up quite early and prominently
I actually don’t mind the Rites gameplay, I just feel like it’s a misnomer to consider it an RPG so far.
For what it's worth, at least Greg prefers to think of it as a party-based ARPG, and not a hybrid VN/NBA Street game.
Exchange monetary units with your PC platform of choice
And PS4!
Really should be saying "launcher" since PC is the platform.
Eh, I guess
If you have a controller, I strongly recommend trying out both control schemes to see which fits better, especially since I feel like Pyre is more optimized for a controller versus mouse and keyboard
You can redo parts of the game too so there's little risk if you decide you don't like something early on or just wanna give it another go
I got it in itch. I makes it hard to host games over steam remote play though
i just tried it out with a controller and it feels way better
cant believe i was using keyboard all this time
all i had to do is switch the keybind for pass and throw and its good
Have fun! I prefer controller, but trying to learn Keyboard and Mouse as it seems much more precise.
wasd or move to cursor?
i was using that, took a while to get used to but its definitely doable
It is mixed as you can click where you wanna go and then just focus on jumping and rerouting every once in a while
wasd is great to me but I'm way worse with controller on many games
alright officially starting up Pyre :D
omg I now know who Ti'zo is
TiZo is an 11/10 cutie :3
oop
alright done for today, that was a ton of fun though
made it past picking up || the minstrel again ||
is pyre good?
hMM
definitely gonna play more tomorrow
I looked through the pins for all of half a second before hurriedly closing them, that looks like spoiler haven
I'm excited for you, Swan! Pyre is such a fun time
alright, back up for a bit more pyre
hello Nyoom :D
Hiyaa
I'm about to reach my 3rd rite in the campaign
Yay I haven't played Pyre in a while but I had over 6 runs, 2 of them in True Nightwing mode
okay definitely starting to get harder with this one, took a few hits
Which triumvirate?
Dissidents
Ah yeah they're pretty fast. Do you have titan stars on?
Ok ok. So only 5 out of them
So, how's the game so far?
recently finished the 3rd rite
Good , good
GO DISSIDENTS
lol
I saw you mention the awesome dissidents theme
really made me CatJam during the convo and the rite
remember : use the shooting star for that "whats a yeet?, yeet!"
withdrawn's theme is a banger
Essences version of never to return is jazzy
I loved the Accusers variant
gives that
-y feel to it
I love how (in the same fight) the beat changes by whether the nightwings or the accusers winning
It's so dear ❤️ such lively animations!
y e s
any game that has a boat that can jump instantly gets a +1 for me
Congrats on making it to sea!
Is it me or some sound effects are shared between the games
yeah
similar, at least
certain sounds from Pyre are reminding me a lot of the boon sounds from Hades
in instance, Transistor's Press any key sound is the same SFX when something surprising happens in Pyre
also , make sure you pet the imp at the bottom left for good luck
you aren't going to lose any rite ,believe me
such a classic name
jeez "Sir" Deluge has some issues
What are you talking about. He precious
wyrms 
Sir Deluge is really concerned for his knights wdym?
naahh, you trippin'
uh-huh
(/s)

oh my god thats gilman's face
right?!
I THOUGHT THAT WAS LIKE A COIN OR SMTH WITH A HEART ON IT
misread that emoji for like 5 years BUT GILMAN IS ADORABLE yes
him and ti'zo and vagabond girl, i have sworn to protect them all
did Tariq sang for your exiles?
^?
Middle of the sea
aww i remember that part yeah
Not touching anything until he finishes
He does it when Rukey asks him
I DID THAT TOO LOL
Same thing as when I first met Eurydice
When I first met Zia
When I realized Red could hum
^^
i realize the vocals are coming in and all my priorities are rearranged
it is music time
supergiant has the music that really do make the whole world stop so you can take in its glory
its just that good
Jodi really hates being wrong, -4 hope?!
Jodi is a bit prideful and water is slightly wet 💕
Jodi really is
hmm, question
just found some "unknown areas"--I'm guessing the path I choose affects which of those are revealed?
you mean the different paths?
wait for their time
without saying what is what, does choosing between Needlfield and Graymoor affect the ones I can go to?
that's the part that isn't super clear
well, it depends
Nah you can choose any
but it doesn't shift the story around
You will eventually find Volfred
you mean the name that no one has mentioned in-game yet? :3
They mentioned someone named Sandalwood
Yep, Sandalwood
I played Pyre so much I knew it by heart. I still remember many little things
I want to replay pyre so much
Yes! I have an unfinished True Nightwing run
i need to finish my first run through it
I need to make it wait in my yet-to-be played games queue
alright well back to my run before I accidentally learn someone else's name :3
Sowwie
you're good, I'd learn it momentarily I'm sure
yeah , I'd say thats better
It was a bit of a spoiler
It's inevitable, regardless
true
ah, I see how those areas work
the design shift from area to area is really 
I keep saying "this Darren dude never miss" and I guess I was right 100%
doing Jodi's trial rn
The Book of Rites is so beautiful that I wanted to make my own real life version of it
luminous idol 👌
nicee
yeah!! its gorgeous
Happy New Year!
(that green orb)|| I love how every exile has that weird and confused "why are you looking at me like this? " when they're sent to sandra's trial||
all but tizo i believe
I ain't clicking on that
its so funny to me ||they walk in like children called to the principals office||
its not that big of a spoiler
Idk if it was or not, better be safe than sorry
i was in such a hades mood today and now my brain is split between hades and pyre
cannot decide which to do first bc i love both sm
lowkey me wants transistor again
I never stop having fun with Transistor (ironically it's the most linear game out of all the others)
TRUE
just got my sister to start it for the first time
transistor was my first game in months that i finished and that made me cry
i bought transistor and hades for my siblings on the family switch for Christmas but i got my own copies on my personal laptop
however since pyre isn't on switch my lil sis asked me to play and let her watch sometime lol
I let my friends experience it first hand
If you wanna explore more on
make sure to @ me in #transistor so the topic don't... Jaunt() too far from Pyre
I'm so sorry
LOL
ITS ALRIGHT
also yeah i gotta keep that in mind bc when transistor is mentioned floodgates open in my head and then i just don't stop talking
wow Gilman is fast
BUT GETTING BACK TO PYRE i truly need to finish this gem soon
oh yeah he's quick af
thats why i enjoy playing him
I just trounced the Chastity
nice
as it should be
who are your favorite characters to use for rites
ti'zo for sure
gilman is fun
vagabond (I went with Fae) is also really good
I definitely go for speed
me too!
current strat is ti'zo runs in and bomb them, then either gilman or fae take the star
i getcha
i play for speed too tbh
jodi be killing me 😭 sis does not go fast enough for me
if you have both rings give one to jodi and someone else and she go zoom cuz infinite stamina
rings?
not that far yet :3
these ones ||https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/557020521309405253/794352943767486485/unknown.png||
they give ||infinite stamina for the beginning of the round if both characters are on the field and has the rings on||
OHH
tysm!!
i need to get those soon ||I keep liberating all my fast people and its killing me||
equiv of shooting yourself in the leg
HONESTLY
experiencing it firsthand felt amazing too
the star sign with tizo also gives you infinite stamina if you go through the portal
You will have to play all of them at some point. Won't tell why because spoilers
I like the huge explosion for Ti'zo
||I do all their trials because I want the most out of the game but the faster characters definitely are easier for me||
throned knot basically takes out the entire arena if you max it
Anyone slower than ||pamitha|| is where I start to trip over myself
Ha'ub's Wing is actually a great talisman
Love making Ti'zo zap around the whole map
y'all talking about different tailsmans
just get yourself shooting star and thats it
I don't like flinging
its really good tho
But to each their own
putting it on a demon with the yeet banishment talent is great
I just happen to make a "meme" about it in #fan-works
I've used Shooting Star in versus mode but I prefer it for the stowaway
#fan-works message
i never use the fling mechanic and I probably should
im very bad at reactive and fast paced gameplay
WHICH IS EVERY GAME EVER but you know it is harder with sports
no thoughts only score the goal
waaaaaay harder in pyre
thats the spirit
Yea I'm pretty bad at flinging too. Got some practice in versus mode but since I haven't played in ages I probably lost my dexterity
now that you're mentioned it
when i first began pyre i did the first rite and then took like
a fully upgraded star splinter makes the yeet very fast
a 3 week break because i was scared of losing the next one ||and I learned there isn't a game over, it just continues with that loss||
||my fear of a bad ending is enough to stop me from playing a game||
also nice
I know. I was pretty stressed out in the first playthrough
Then on my third I gained more courage and tried my first True Nightwing run
Somehow I managed to beat Oralech with all titan stars on in the first try
@earnest roost https://imgur.com/a/JhGsFdA
Haha yes
LMAO
NICE
My pyre was one hit away from being extinguished. It was a tough match
the stress omg
when my pyre takes 3-4 hits i panic restart
i see my pyre health drop below 20 and my heart drops into my feet
I restarted when I didn't want the other team to win because they were douchebags like the Chastity or it was a liberation rite and I refused to lose lol
wow, Fae's trial was the easiest so far by a lot
I feel like Jodi's was the hardest
^^
tizo and ||manley's|| was the hardest for me
||oh yeah liberation rites is when my real game face comes on i will restart it as many times as i need to bc losing simply isn't an option||
||pamitha's|| took me a few tries
The hardest liberation rite was probably against the Essence
i refuse to lose to the withdrawn and the accusers but other than that i accept my lost
idk which group has ||the dog and his human son who mae really likes talking to|| but i love them
the fate
ty
Oh yea Lendel doesn't deserve a win. He gives me a hard time in TN mode when his team has 2 demons
But I kept trying and trying until I won. It was hard though
i will lose to the fate during ||liberation rites cuz they deserve it||
True
i want my first run to be perfect but my next run i will def do that
and since i'm kinda in a good mood today
I happen to have another too for the lads and lasses here
oh wait i have a good gif for this
they're beautiful
thanks
HAHAHAHA
i love this gif so much
alright, that made me outright laugh
it isn't loading for me 😭 imma hop on pc rq to see it
mods here should pin it
its a masterpiece
THANK YOU
YES
thank you
I'd really be honored to have one of my beautiful images pinned there alongside the masterpieces
the trasistor pins are good too
unfortunately we only get one pin per century come back in 2101
i love the voice in the game
i know his name now i just have goldfish memory
hes so mean to me but i love him
aj, voice
tyvm
or as we can all agree , the amazing logan cunningham
His voice is memorable throughout the different games
its so fun to piss AJ off
all you need to do is just exist and he HATES it
to be fair
I just enjoy pissing off any authority figure off
dude's can range from sexy-sassy voice to outright out of God Of War
but AJ especially
i love how AJ rolls his r's
AJ is really really mean
Aj is the type of person to say "if only there was someone out there who loved you." in response to i love you
and now you gave me flashbacks to Solaire of astora from Dark souls
idk who that is but if they roll their r's theyre amazing
i struggle sm trying to
ive studied spanish for 5 years and i have never once been able to roll my tounge 😭
glowing red eyes but what if you know arabic and your whole life is about rolling your tongue?
you are the best human to ever exist
aw
you know society is really only put into two groups--those who can roll their tongue and those who cannot
and the former is simply built different

I can roll my tongue :3
but I can also make a variety of other noises so I don't know how special that is
the thing is: some languages take advantage of the whole vocal cords and the tongue (and it's positioning too)
English (especially the North american accent) is so light compared to something like Spanish (where the words come out a bit heavy than usual)
and I see some struggle with speaking with a heavy accent, because they weren't learnt how to do it
spanish pronunciation was always the one thing that got me and i felt terrible speaking it bc i knew i sounded like a tourist reading off of google translate for the first time
reading and writing came so easily to me but saying the words just didnt connect
learning other languages is fun tho
might play around and teach myself to speak the pyre language
^
GL!!
GL HF
yo this means you saw ||celeste|| my wife
||who may also be tariq's wife but who is keeping track of that||
The Plan's current probability of success: 19% I'm dying
what liberation rite is this for you
(What's he doing?)
(He's going to hear
again)
also (idk if this is true) , but each speaker has it's own singer, if you put the left side away you can only hear Celeste
and vice versa
kinda cool sound design
that is so cool wtf
i NEED to make a friend of mine cosplay tariq bc i simply cannot live knowing i am a tariq-less celeste
we make music together or we do not make music at all
at the last ||liberation rite i did, tariq was like "if the will of the scribes is to keep us apart any longer... then i no longer accept their will.|| and i felt that
and celeste was like ||"YOU CANT??? SAY THAT AT THE SCRIBESGATE??? DUDE"||
||me and the homies going against the will of the gods||
Iconic, really
goodbye mama jodi
so long, jodi!
she also hard-carried that, Jodi + luminous idol is bonkers
I love when you go to the rites you see both Tariq and Celeste like:
"The Pyres burn , and each of the triumvirates is present and prepared"
"I concur, The Pyres burn , and each of the triumvirates is present and prepared"
like they're in harmony
oh my god you just reminded me
i meant to make a tweet that was smth along the lines of "so who wants to be the one to concur with me that the pyres burn and each of the trimvirates is present and prepared"
thank you so much
You're welcome
theyre my favorite part of the liberation rites
like yeah im sending someone home but my favorite musicians are here how amazing is that
^^ when she said she saw the spine of the world, i really felt that
LOL
(I hope you really understood the reference)
I DO I DO DW
ur too kind 🥺
gonna yeet it back and say: no u
Pyre's fire: 0
You win
everything i do in life i do for the nightwings
||and the fates||
||and celeste is a nightwing by association||
idk why i censored that last one actually
keeping it safe for Swan

<3
YESSSS
Yes
omg
about time you know that too!
....is that safe?
probably not
lmao
perhaps
I'll read back through here later
Sir Gilman may feel sick a bit
|| omg I get to control it ||
It gets better
yeah I already bumped a couple
Now you know you have the upper advantage
i go out of my way to crash into them tbh
i know they start panicking when they see my wagon in the distance
(good thing that this can be taken out of context and be mistaken for something that is un- relateable to the mid game)
i like to think my reader would need a more mature member of the nightwings to take over driving because i wouldnt stop ramming other wagons
jodi is watching me purposely crash into people from her seat and simply decides enough is enough
she moves you to the side of the wagon and say "my turn"
No need for arts
I like how they included the reader|| without a look or a face||
||and even at the end, the reader is just a star||
||SAME it helps to let you really just imagine them for yourself (also very friendly to non-binary readers out there)||
||WAIT THE READER IS A STAR??? I JOKINGLY CALL THE READER THE STAR TO CELESTE'S SUN AND TARIQ'S MOON||
||and also allowing artists to self-insert/draw someone freely and not stick to something||
||I said f it, mine and mine alone and left Pam, Fae, and Ti'zo||
||i have to option to liberate ti'zo in my next rite but honestly i just||
||i dont know if im emotionally ready||
||if my heart can take it||
||ti'zo is my sunshine||
||Hearing "Godspeed (whoever was liberated)" is really goosebumps all the way||
