The cannon used "science"

violet sentinel
#

I think it’s just that the camera feels a bit closer to the character than in a lot of iso games.

tall sleet
#

The only other iso game (that i can think of rn) that i liked was baldurs gate dark alliance 1 &2

#

Im sure ive enjoyed more isos but i cant think of any lol

untold cove
#

Does Civ count as iso?

tall sleet
#

Havent played

untold cove
#

The newer ones are technically 3D, but I think they’re iso

tall sleet
#

But I think?

willow pasture
#

I'd say yes

#

Imagine what sgg could do with a 4x kind of game

tall sleet
#

If the view point is like that then its iso

#

Right?

untold cove
#

Yeah

tall sleet
#

Whats 4x?

untold cove
#

Civ-style games, where you control an empire or country or something

willow pasture
#

4x is games like civ, where the goals are roughly "explore, expand, exploit, exterminate"

untold cove
#

That’s what I was going to google

#

“Ex” = X

tall sleet
#

Oh ok

#

Eh

#

Never got into those. Well, i never played them but the idea never appealed to me rip

willow pasture
#

Well maybe you'll come around if sgg does a take on them

tall sleet
#

Tbh

#

I'd definitely try it

#

And sorry for veering from the topic

velvet tide
#

i wish my tablet worked on the computer i borrow to play pyre with tbh, id love to try a rite w pen and tablet

neon kayak
#

i dont have pyre on pc, otherwise i would try :<

minor path
unique sail
#

Playing Pyre with a pen and tablet...? How would that even work??! That sure would be interesting....

velvet tide
#

it can replace the mouse and click, and has buttons you can put commands to in theory

olive hull
#

ooh

#

i wanna try that now

dry shale
#

"In theory" are my favorite words before reality gets in the way

#

Especially when it comes to Magic the Gathering

thin cave
#

but consider

#

supergiant tarot

#

i think it could be done

velvet tide
#

OH DAMN

dry shale
#

There's Binding of Isaac tarot cards, Supergiant has enough characters to easily hit the major arcana

velvet tide
#

Idk anything abt tarot but xel if u ever organize a deck to be made hell yeah will i be in it

thin cave
#

i think the individual casts are too small but all three...

velvet tide
#

theres a wheel of fortune card right, thats def like.....soliam/the rites/aj and (uhhh sunny weight...?)

#

the sun/moon, obvious

#

what other are there. The lovers? redboxer?

tall sleet
#

The Fool as the Kid

dry shale
#

The Magician, The Heirophant

#

The Emperior, The Empress, High Priestess

tall sleet
#

Rucks as the Hierophant

dry shale
#

The Stars

velvet tide
#

the stars=the stars

dry shale
#

The Hanged Man, The Tower

velvet tide
#

reader as magician maybe?

tall sleet
#

Um, i actually know stuff about tarot but this is requiring me to think about what characters would best represent the major arcana

#

The Tower - the calamity

velvet tide
#

oooh u kno abt tarot!! Nice

dry shale
#

I'm working off Isaac and I think I got all the major arcana?

#

Justice!

velvet tide
#

ahh pls dont talk abt endings in here tho

dry shale
#

The World

tall sleet
#

Sorry, kamila

velvet tide
#

this is difficult bc were talking across all 3 games...np weve just gotten complaints before

tall sleet
#

But one of the bastion endings really does match death

velvet tide
#

Yeah!!

tall sleet
#

Give me a min and i'll send in order all the major arcana

#

0 - the fool

dry shale
#

Balls, I forgot that one

tall sleet
#

1 - the magician

#

2 the high priestess

#

3 the empress

#

4 the emperor

#

5 the hierophant

#

6 the lovers

#

7 the chariot

#

8 strength

#

9 the hermit

#

10 wheel of fortune

#

11 justice

#

12 the hanged man

#

13 death

#

14 temperance

#

15 the devil

#

16 the tower

#

17 the star

#

18 the moon

#

19 the sun

#

20 judgement

#

21 the world

thin cave
#

i'm not an expert!!! but i can tell u that i think royce is the chariot

tall sleet
#

The chariot means finding your direction/goal in life

#

So that could work since he's driven about the process

willow pasture
#

Celeste for stars?

tall sleet
#

Zia as the high priestess

#

Well, celeste's design certainly does suggest stars. But the star means hope and faith

#

So hedwyn could fit. Or all of the nightwings

#

Um, do you guys want all the cards to be imdividualized?

#

But it could also go for the calamity in bastion

velvet tide
#

oooooh hanged man reader...

tall sleet
#

Reader as hanged man is good

thin cave
#

actually scratch that, if we're talking trna only i think royce should be the moon

#

otherwise i can think of a lot of other supergiants who are a better fit

tall sleet
#

Judgement could be the true nightwings together

velvet tide
#

ae as high priestess...

#

OOOH

tall sleet
#

Multiple characters fit into same roles lol

thin cave
#

and oops hey maybe we should continue these convos on their respective channels, i am seeing some forbidden names mentioned in here...

velvet tide
#

yeah
Oh, youre right!

tall sleet
#

Ahh yeah

#

Its better if you do one series for each tarot

#

Or else spoilers

thin cave
#

yeah actually

Is SGG still gonna be there on Monday? I live up here and a coworker hooked me up with a ticket

(Also how are they not part of the Video Game Music Theory panel, that seems like a no-brainer)

river urchin
#

The transistor t-shirt sorta gives off a vaporwave aesthetic. I like it

violet sentinel
#

Can we please get physical releases of bastion and transistor for the switch?

#

I really want those on my shelf. I can’t tell you how many copies I’ve bought for friends when it comes to bastion.

minor path
#

it's been asked several times before

olive hull
#

haha yeah i feel like it would be a good addition to the faq

#

its frequently asked enough

unique sail
#

I'd love for physical copies through Limited Run Games, like they just did for Bastion, because I don't have a Switch lol 😛

olive hull
#

i hope eventually the other games will be on lrg too but i know there are no plans rn

which is good bc i do need to save my money for now 😅

I'd like to attend PAX East as the Blackwagon

But lack of materials and funds

velvet tide

well theres your transportation costs cut, anyway

faint tusk

if you do somehow make it to pax east as the blackwagon then we gotta have a pyre cosplay meetup

Oh of course

I just don't know if I would want to do actual wheels or fake wheels to cover walking around like a Flintstones car

i want to go as the transistor

#

not red or boxer

#

the transistor is my one true love

velvet tide
#

I cant find it but a friend of mine made a transistor pattern dress a while ago!!

fleet bolt
#

I absolutely think it's doable

#

Use the handle pattern for the wrap on a high ponytail, some kind of visor with a single red eye

velvet tide
#

hey everyone someone wished me a good upcoming rosh hashana and that i should be "inscribed in the book of-" and i kinda "oh i kno this one" mouthed "of rites!" and they finished with "of life" and i have a seasonal problem on my hands now

oh no

sturdy oasis

Someone told me the Ti'zo pin on my bag was cute today 🙌

velvet tide
#

aaaa nice!!

neon kayak
#

That’s success

neon kayak
#

I was wondering cause I’ve been trying to get people I know into Supergiant games, have any of you tried spreading the good word about the games, how many people did you manage to “invite” to the games?

eager lava
neon kayak
#

That’s a amazing

grave island
#

i've brought most of my friends over to supergiant's stuff...

#

i'd ballpark like 10-12 people?

#

3 since coming to japan last year

eager lava
#

I wonder if the games are known in Japan. Is there even a japanese translation?

neon kayak
#

Impressive numbers! I think I got one acquaintance to get into the games a bit, idk if they still play and stuff..

grave island
#

There is an (iffy) Japanese translation

#

of Transistor, anyways

#

idk about Bastion or Pyre

neon kayak
#

Oooh..

eager lava
#

I was introduced to the games by my boyfriend. Well, we were only friends when he told me about Transistor. Nowadays I jokingly hold against him the fact that he got me into something with such a small fandom

grave island
#

@restive stream could tell you more about the japanese transistor translation haha

#

we had a handful of conversations about it

neon kayak
#

Is studying English widespread in Japan?

grave island
#

It's mandatory starting in elementary school but a lot of people's english is still very poor

eager lava
#

The bad part about translations is that you miss on the amazing voice acting. I mean for some people english does sound like sahrian

neon kayak
#

That’s fair enough, I think it’s like that in many countries who put English as mandatory in school to try get people into it

eager lava
#

In Spain english is mandatory but the english levels in general are... very bad. I saw some streamers and youtubers play Pyre's spanish translation and to put it nicely... it's not very good.

grave island
#

Most of the translations are pretty iffy, the Russian one I know was pretty wild lol

#

according to savi anyways

eager lava
#

Or maybe it's because I'm so used to english that I usually dislike spanish translations of all media despite it being my native language

grave island
#

Nah it's probably an iffy translation haha

#

The Japanese one...let's see, there was something about Red's personal pronoun choice

neon kayak
#

The rus one was very weird. I didn’t look much into it myself, but it felt off quite a bit, but got the point across I guess

eager lava
#

I still wonder how they made the neutral pronoun thing work in spanish seeing how we don't officially have one and all words are either male or female, if that makes sense

grave island
#

At any rate if anyone wanted to offer opinions or re-translations the team would probably welcome them! Ask first and in DMs of course, lol

#

sparrow and I spent uhhhhhhh a while finding typos in the English version soooo

eager lava
#

I don't know if I would be up for making a re-translation of the game. I could only help with typos mostly.

grave island
#

Oh yeah no I'm not suggesting a full re-translation!! More like, if something was bothering you you could always report it

#

I'm not asking you to do a bunch of work for free 😂

#

More like "If you have concerns/comments you can always share them"

eager lava
#

I played the english version though I'm tempted to re-play it in spanish out of curiosity 😆

#

Only watched some streamers playing it in spanish for the first time and saying that the translation wasn't very good

#

I did peek into the game files and noticed that some character names and triumvirate names are translated, which makes sense but still sounds sooooo weird to me

#

Triumvirates I understand but I'm not sure about my stance regarding name or especially surname translation.

grave island
#

I know for the German version (i think?) they changed Volfred's name because it wouldn't sound right so, honestly I don't mind if changes have to be made to keep the sound consistent and/or avoid something that sounds unintentionally silly or dumb 😂

eager lava
#

Ahhh yeah, definitely. Some names can sound quite unfortunate in other languages 😆

#

Thinking more about it, I always saw translations as literal translations, which sometimes might feel even a bit disrespectful when you change someone's surname just because, since in the real world doing that would be very disrespectful. However, I suppose that the idea behind that is that every language is not a translation but as if the world was meant to be in "that language" which explains why the characters would be named according to something that would make sense for that language.

#

I suppose in Pyre's case is a bit weird because the voice acting is still in english regardless of the language.

grave island
#

yeah! good translations are ALWAYS about meaning more than the specific words

#

sometimes to preserve meaning you have to change up words, sentences, or even large portions of a work, and there's a lot of thinking and collaboration that goes into what the intended meaning is, what the connotations of words are, etc

#

that's why you can have 500 different translations of something like the odyssey

eager lava
#

Ahh yes, like sometimes you have to change the exact translation for something that still carries a similar meaning but flows better

toxic fog
#

The Russian official translation is... Iffy.

#

It has good moments and the translator's have found some good alternatives to the English phrases and words.

#

But they are "compensated" by very not amazing feats of translation and writing.

#

The Jomuer Valley was made into something that is read wrong immediately (Джомуэ; close to Jomue), the bog-crones are translated literally (which sounds weird, and short version made the race be named, literally, "old women"), and Pyrehearts are turned into more of a Fiery or something.

#

Also, "triumvirate" is replaced by "triad", which is a close choice, if not for one thing. "Triumvirate" works good in Russian as well.

#

And the word used for "Scribes" has more immediate meaning as "people who like books and read them a lot", not "people who write books and chronicle the history".

clever helm
#

IMO when you know the language playing in original trumps any sort of localisation

#

So uh
We lucky few, eh

toxic fog
#

Still, I appreciate them making an effort and handling several moments well.

#

Like translating "Saps" and making Fae's name rhyme exist.

clever helm
#

Ye, work of translators is still appreciated.

restive stream
#

Oh I've been tagged! Hello! Like @grave island said there were really interesting choices made on Red's first person pronoun--she uses one that's tomboyish (along with a more forceful, masculine register in general) in the terminal conversation where she's telling Boxer how she's gonna destroy the Spine, but in every other situation she uses a more neutral first person pronoun and a feminine register, including in the conversation with Boxer on the obituary terminal. Honestly I'm not entirely sure what the translation was aiming for with that--I'm not a native speaker and while it's common to change pronouns/registers based on the audience you're speaking to, I've never really encountered someone switching registers when speaking to the same audience under different situations.

toxic fog
#

@clever helm
I mean, even while knowing the language of origin, it is easier to read text in you native tongue.

clever helm
#

Not necessarily
I love my native Russian language, but I'm accustomed enough to reading English

toxic fog
#

In some cases it is better to use English (like in Darkest Dungeon, where no translation can replace Wayne June and the wording).

#

But sometimes you don't want to do extra translation work.

clever helm
#

Ye, I can respect that

toxic fog
#

And not all know English as good as us.

clever helm
#

Like, in some kind of Paradox Games strategy, say, Stellaris, where there is an awful lot of text

toxic fog
#

So striving for the best translation is still important.

clever helm
#

Or an unnarrated indie, like FTL

toxic fog
#

@clever helm
Yes. Or in Shadowrun games.

clever helm
#

Watching a guy I know stream some Darkest Dungeon right now, funny you should mention it 😃

#

Okay, we're getting off-topic.

#

BTW as far as beautifully narrated games go, Supergiant's very own Bastion and Transistor probably wouldn't benefit from a localisation with some voice actor.

#

bless. I love good VA's tbh

they make me love whatever game i'm playing, 'tis such a huge addition

i am kind of glad pyre didn't use VA's like transistor and bastion tho

Off-topic

Might have done.

velvet tide
#

oh.... i never noticed omg

#

i dont think mods have that power so it may have been an sgg person

#

(or maybe its always been this way and youre just from an alt universe, spoooookyyyy ~)

It wasn't always this way.

What Garr said, but in Rucks' voice

#

When everything changes, nothing changes.

#

I was very moved by Literary Analysis of Transistor. Finally understood what the game was telling.

velvet tide
#

theres three things ill always miss, though. one, not havin to watch my step all the time. two...when the channels were pyre/transistor/bastion.

willow pasture
#

when i look up, at where the channels should be, i see transistor at the bottom, and i know you can hear me

real eagle
#

I have moved it back! It was a mislick and not representative of anything. anything

willow pasture
#

on one hand, ive messed around in servers i had channel rights to, and it's really easy to make that mistake

#

on the other hand... BASTION 2 CONFIRMED

plucky goblet
#

man bastion 2 would be such a short game

#

nevermind that joke i was gonna make is stupid. Bastion 2 wouldnt be a bad idea if it's done differently than bastion

#

Just in the same universe per se

willow pasture
#

of the 3 games, bastion is narratively the least possible to make a direct sequel to, though

#

it would be silly in all the games, for sure

plucky goblet
#

I thought that yes, but then it's like

#

The only way you could do that is telling it from some other perspective

velvet tide
#

bastion 2? you mean, playing bastion again?

plucky goblet
#

Someone else that we didn't see

#

Yes, bastion 2, also known as hitting yourself over the head to the point of amnesia and playing bastion again

velvet tide
#

perfect

plucky goblet
#

I wonder how it'd feel

velvet tide
#

idk.....i forget ron

willow pasture
#

bastion 0, you play as zia, and you just sing for a while until some guy finds you

plucky goblet
#

You're suddenly in your room, you don't remember anything from your life. The only thing you see is a locked door, a dented wall, a keyboard, mouse, and a monitor that's a title screen. "Bastion" with a sticky note right next to it that says "2"

#

Pfff

#

A monitor that shows a title screen rather

willow pasture
#

the sticky note is there during the whole game, obscuring the screen

plucky goblet
#

obviously

#

it's actually glued in the middle of one of the LCD layers

#

so it's inside the monitor

willow pasture
#

but the glue isn't very good, so it very slowly slides downwards, leaving a trail of glue residue

plucky goblet
#

and dead pixels

#

haven't played Bastion in forever, never tried Transistor besides the soundtrack. Have been on an indie game jam on the Switch, and am looking forward to the release. Do we know if there are any plans to get Pyre into it as well? I would assume it's been asked a million times

#

I have this small hope that it not being announced yet means they are spending time enabling same-console multiplayer

But yeah, not likely

Accidentally moving a channel is valid and understandable, it can happen to anyone

Yup, custom engine, as per the “Is Pyre coming to the Switch?” answer.

Hey, late response from me re: Q&As! Them taking a week off isn't PAX related, we just didn't plan for more than the initial four. We'll be talking about it this week.

#

If it's something you'd like to see us keep doing or have any other feedback on the format and so on it'd be a good time to share that, probably in #server-suggestions! We'd like to keep trying different stuff in here as we haven't been using Discord for very long as a team and it has a lot of potential.

i wear my pyre shirt all the time tbh

sartorial, every day you learn something new

#

TBH if international shipping wasn't $35, I'd order more merch.

#

Like, the new Transistor Beach T-shirt is really great, but the shipping is almost twice the cost of the thing

frigid agate
#

You might be able to split the shipping cost with friends?

light violet
#

Wait they added another shirt?

#

ohno

#

That's what I did the last time when I got my Pyre t-shirt. Just can't find a friend interested in that new shirt this time.

#

Splitting cost with friends oh that's a good one 😞

#

I'd be willing to order shirts for someone then ship it to them, long as I got paid for the shirt

#

@dry shale Uhh I'm not entirely sure how you mean it, but it doesn't make too much sense.

#

I bought a shirt three sizes too small entirely to dismantle and attach to the back of a vest and I do not regret it

I suppose that's one way to produce your own SGG merch without breaking copyright

Well I was making a metal style battle vest, what with the patches and whatnot, but for video games

So Transistor has less in-your-face lore than Bastion does yes.

#

But I still feel like there’s plot gaps.

willow pasture
#

in transistor or in bastion?

#

seems like a trademark of supergiant that the lore isn't complete, with loose ends left untied

#

once you stop trying to understand the lore, you can begin enjoying it

velvet tide
#

psspssst just reminder that if ur gonna get into spoilers move to transistor channrl pls!

#

ok carry on

tawny oasis
#

I like that some of the lore and background isn't told

#

Because Red or Rucks wouldn't know everything about the place or time

#

It makes it feel like you're being told a story by someone who was there

#

I mean... Rucks is literally telling you the story of what happened

tall sleet
#

yeah but he's an unreliable narrator. he's not omniscient or anything like that

I trust him to tell it like it was

#

What things does he say that you think weren't quite true?

its not anything that he said, its just that everything that he says comes from his pov

John, after another long day at work, came to the bar. He ordered a strong drink, as usual. He needed something to flush the tears with. He took a photo out of his pocket and gazed into it. Other people ignored him – they were used to him sitting there like that for hours.
After a few minutes John suddenly heard a familiar voice. 'Everything alright?' asked Michael, John's coworker, 'What are you looking at?' Michael gently pulled the photo out of John's hands and looked at it. It was an old family photograph, at least twenty years old. He looked at the father and recognized John, though at the time he must have been much younger. 'Is that your family? What happened to them?' asked Michael in surprise. He had never heard of John's family. 'Nothing. I just haven't seen them ever since I moved to the U.S. I think my wife doesn't want to see me anymore,' replied John. 'Why?' wondered Michael. 'It was a long time ago. She wasn't happy that I decided to abandon her and the kids.' John's eyes started to fill with tears. 'But why did you do that? It must have been something serious,' asked Michael. He couldn't stop his curiosity.
'You know, I just wanted to win that sweet hammer.'

If the next SG game ends up having a green-oriented design we would just wonder if it really was planned beforehand or if it was because of the community's observation volfredthink

I predict a gray-oriented design

It'll be noirer than Transistor

#

ooooh....black abd white contrast

#

I remember actually looking at some concept sketches on Jen's twitter which were black-and-white. Looked pretty cool

Though maybe that's less because of black & white, and more because it's Jen

Hey, just found out about this server. Long time fan of Supergiant, never actually beat a game before, because the thematic resonance in your interactive narratives was so strong that it made me realize I had issues to sort out. Six years later, I have, and I'm finally finishing things up, starting with Transistor!

velvet tide
#

shax six selfie .....

trim vortex
#

So THANK YOU

#

You're doing with video games what I've always told people that they could.

#

Now if only I could get other people to figure that out....aside from the therapists that stopped making appointments ahahahahaha

#

when video games replace therapy

(p.s. I'm an illustrator and a college student and a lurker by nature so my apologies if I'm not too chatty at first. New servers can be overwhelming, but feel free to DM me or @ me!)
(p.p.s. beware of bad dad jokes)

untold cove
#

If you're an illustrator, you'll be interested in #fan-works !

#

And get cracking on beating those games! They're all so worth it to see through to the end!

trim vortex
#

I'm seriously hoping that Transistor has multiple playthroughs integrated into the metanarrative, but nospoils

#

Because honestly I have an inkling all of said games do

#

but iterative playthroughs unlocking extra story secrets is something I've been a huge fan of since Boktai on the GBA

#

which, by the way, The Kid and Django REALLY look like they have similar aesthetic influences.

#

that's what initially drew me to Bastion

willow pasture
#

if you're looking to avoid spoilers, don't go into a game's channel until you've beaten it

trim vortex
#

#

Oh, and I'd love to pick the brain of the Illustrator and Sound Engineers someday.

This is going to be at least 5 years from now, but I'm slow-cooking my own stories to eventually make into games once I have the capital and the time.

#

Ha. I say I'm not chatty and then I go full extrovert.

#

there's q&a's here and there

If you're going to go back over the #ask-supergiant stuff, beware of spoilers

All in due time. Thanks for the warnings. I think this has been a lovely introductory conversation, haha

and here I thought those stupid Nier 🅱ideos would never be useful as anything other than journaling

velvet tide
#

stupid videos are always incredibly important

trim vortex
#

the only reason I started was because a buddy of mine was trying to get me work in Image Compositing using a software called NUKE

#

over the course of about....ehhh......i dunno, 8 months, I used all my Nier:A gametime to make stock footage to then edit

#

I tried to have every "episode" focus on increasing my skillcap in using premiere

#

and some of the footage was actually composited together using NUKE, which according to my friend in Image Comp, was "Ian how did you do that in NUKE, I didn't know it could even export video...wait, WHY did you do that in Nuke?!" answer: to see if I could

reading the legalese, I have no idea how sgg plans to determine whether someone is in the US or not

they probably ask for an address when drawing a winner, and if the winner is outside of the US they just do a re-draw

willow pasture

(if you know someone in the US you trust, give sgg their address instead, and arrange for the rest of the hammer journey)

that... actually would work

I took the 3 release dates and drew a line of best fit

worn rampart
#

It depends on many things, but if we simplify things, maybe it would be best to look at the periods inbetween release dates

#

1035 days between Bastion and Transistor, 1162 days between Transistor and Pyre

#

If we assume a linear pattern, the next interval would be 1289 days, which places the next release date on the 3rd of February 2021

#

But then again, that's a lot of assumptions

willow pasture
#

I wonder how we got different numbers

#

Anyway, now you have to make a game on the 3rd of Feb 2021

worn rampart
#

Valid

willow pasture
#

Oh wait I misread your explanation. Yeah that makes sense

worn rampart
#

To be honest, I wouldn't assume a linear pattern of the intervals between games because 1. SGG as a team keep growing at an irregular rate 2. They often like trying new things, and they clearly planned Pyre to be more massive than their previous games

willow pasture
#

I like my numbers better because they seem to try to release midyear

#

If we had the exact date sgg was founded (sometime in 2009) we could have an extra data point

worn rampart
#

Given what we know, my best guess would probably be an average between the two intervals we have

#

So uhhh, that would make the 27th July 2020

#

which is quite close to yours

willow pasture
#

Yeah that's roughly how I got my number, I don't remember

#

And also it's a July release like 2 other sgg games

#

The struggle is real waiting for the next game

#

I could wait a hundred years when it comes to SG games

#

#

worn rampart
#

yeah same, I guess I should phrase it like: I would pass away from old age before my patience for SGG's following game release runs out

Maybe during the next qa I'll ask how they came up with the frankly silly name "supergiant"

#

The games aren't even that big
