So it could be intentional

arctic pecan
#

yeahhh the winter piano the hot topic for usSkyLOL

#

Especially for those who's looking forward to get the piano or already own one

white garnet
#

is piano the same as regular piano or something?

arctic pecan
#

just the notes been higher in terms of pitch ( not musically knowledgable so I don't know the exact term for the higher notes )

kindred fossil
#

when was the complaints exactly? i recall them being way before seeing how it actually worked

#

when i saw the redesign i also though it was going to stay the same when pulling it out

white garnet
#

octaves?

shrewd plover
#

The octave is higher yes

arctic pecan
#

ahh so its octave, yeah yeah the winter piano is in octave, something like that

lusty light
#

People didn’t like how it was folded on their back

#

But I loved it sCry

arctic pecan
#

Same here

Some observation about #beta-feedback for people participating there:

  • If your post is about "agree/disagree with so-and-so," consider either having that conversation here, or giving your unique personal experience of the topic rather than naming others and framing it like a debate. Feedback is valuable, but debate makes it harder to read the messages and find their real value.
  • If you find yourself writing about what "lots of people" are saying or thinking or feeling, or how "lots of people" play or might play given some set of assumptions, reconsider. Feedback will be easier to parse and clearer if it's worded as your personal experience; how the changes have affected your play.
  • As always, kindly remember that feedback about how much you love something is always a welcome thing for our dear friends, the devs to read. pSkyHeart

I was laughing at that one picture

#

How that players perfectly timed it in that one Iceberg

late prawn
#

the sassy stance spirit has replaced the prairie emote one since last update , yes ? so no knowledge on any potential updates for the latters pricings yet ?

livid ice
#

Yes

#

And prices are lower for its items

#

@late prawn

arctic pecan
#

from 50 to 40 candles I think for the Sassy Spirit's mask

livid ice
#

And from 25-12 candles for the hair

late prawn
#

ah alright thank you ! i know the sassy stance had the mask and hat lowered to 40 / 12 from 50 / 25 but not sure about the prairie emote

livid ice
#

Is not here yet lol

#

We don’t know 🤷🏼‍♂️

atomic yoke
#

Baby

late prawn
#

i hav a lil spreadsheet keeping track of the prices to prepare so i wanted to know. guess ill have ta wait !

arctic pecan
#

hmm guess we have to find out when the Prairie one comes next

orchid nexus
#

@balmy rock #beta-feedback is generally for people who have experience in the beta to share their feedback, not a place to speculate or dump hostility. Please consider removing your message, or editing the wording with this thought in mind: The people who make this game actually respect and care about the players and are trying to solve difficult problems with some of their changes. When we don't understand their rationale it doesn't mean they are being malicious.

tawny prairie
#

@balmy rock the whale spirit is a placeholder btw. It won’t cost an extra 999 to get forest hair SkyCry

#

also I’m curious, let’s say someone outside of beta doesn’t like something or has an opinion on something they see; are they not allowed to mention feedback? Since stuff rarely changes once it gets to live

atomic yoke
#

Bruh

#

I don’t like this argument about the no cape

sage mulch
#

Feel like this argument will only gets worse when it goes to live.

#

Bat cape 2.0

arctic pecan
shrewd plover
#

Yeah...like I get the fuss over it and the price tag of it, which it's good that everyone has feedback on it, but it escalated a little further than need be

kindred fossil
#

feedback: not a fan of this new feature you recently added, ive got a couple of suggestions, etc
not feedback: my life has never known peace since the new feature, i woke up the next morning and snakes began physically manifesting in my house

late prawn
#

lmaoo

lusty light
#

Can I add in please don’t submit feedback unless you are a beta tester, hearing the new features from others is not the same as actually testing it, and writing feedback on things you don’t know about isn’t helping

tardy dove
#

like hearing from a friend about a cake who doesn’t like it and thinking it’s bad despite never eating said cake

lusty light
#

Granny it’s just the concept of the cake I don’t like :/ taste doesn’t matter

kindred fossil
#

i did comment on how i like the new redesigns despite not being a beta tester, oops, good to know though

sage mulch
#

My main gripe with it, is that I think it just goes against the philosophy that the game’s trying to push. I fear that it’ll possibly cause people to think of hearts as currency to grind for, rather than a gift.

tardy dove
late prawn
#

i think genial discussion and sharing opinions on beta stuff is fine, as long as you dont give official feedback in #beta-feedback without actually having beta and therefore not having experienced it firsthand yourself

tawny prairie
#

I don’t think I’ve even left feed back on the cape because I don’t see myself ever testing it in beta

#

plus 999 to remove something seems nuts

lusty light
#

Of course it’s ok to disagree with the price @sage mulch I also don’t agree with it, it’s really just how people have been wording their disagreement

white garnet
#

laughs in i'll never try it bc i love capes too much

late prawn
#

yaa. constructive feedback is the best feedback

tawny prairie
#

Ya

#

Like I may grind for a 200 heart cape

#

I like having a cape

lusty light
#

Ikr, flying around with no cape is funny but outside of hair, cape is the most important thing in a look imo

shrewd plover
#

Same!
I'd be like "oh this is worth a grind"
Plus capes seem pretty integral to a skykid's design anyhow

tawny prairie
#

I’d feel undressed lol

tardy dove
#

how absurd would would it be to have like 8 sky kids flying around with no cape

white garnet
#

i like when my hair clips through the cape because its weirdly cute

#

same

#

you look babyy

tawny prairie
#

Like removing the cape should just be free after doing eden once

white garnet
#

also i like having ghe diamonds to see how much im losing

lusty light
#

In order of most to least important thing in a look I think it’s hair > cape > mask > pants

sage mulch
#

Yeah. I fear that I may have been a bit harsh with some criticism in the past. (Trying to avoid doing that in the future.) I just don’t want this cosmetic to create an even larger angry mob, when it comes to live.

tawny prairie
#

Pant lovers are offended everywhere

shrewd plover
#

Yo corgi
Rather than that, what if it was a matter of unlocking all the Elders' cosmetics?

tardy dove
#

i like the idea of just straight up removing your cape, like it's off but you can't fly. But also have the invisible cape? idk

white garnet
#

i can see that happening

desert stratus
#

why does it appear in the sky store that I can buy dollar passes and packages? but without covering anything?

tawny prairie
#

I view it as just undressing lol

white garnet
#

what if ghere was a transparent cape

lusty light
#

!betacost

gilded parrotBOT
#

Everything in beta is free, so nothing in the in-game store costs actual money.

shrewd plover
#

Make it a ghost manta cape, that'd be fun ngl

white garnet
#

make it tainnn

#

rainn

#

that would be so nice

shrewd plover
#

Because it's translucent and aesthetically pleasing and is sort of invisible? lol

white garnet
#

become one w the matas

lusty light
#

My favorite cape in game rn is the belonging white cape, and it goes perfectly with the winter pants

#

So I’m excited for that

slate laurel
#

im quite excited for Thursday

tawny prairie
#

yes that’s a pretty cape

lusty light
#

I hope it comes early...

white garnet
#

i love thet one

shrewd plover
#

Belonging white cape is so good with the winter clothing yes, agreed

tawny prairie
#

my fav is the white gratitude fluffy cape and the light blue from winter

white garnet
#

i like the old capes with diamond patters on the bottom

#

fluffyyy

sage mulch
#

Same, Seraph! Although it seems that TGC’s in a bit of a pickle when it comes to the ultimate reward.

lusty light
#

The old capes were expensive performance wise so they got removed

#

But I still miss the diamonds

white garnet
#

ohh gotcha

#

that sucks :(

tawny prairie
#

honestly it should unlock like a galaxy manta spirit

lusty light
#

I wish we could have kept the diamonds but removed the patterns still

tawny prairie
#

With rewards

#

and base it on how friendly you’ve been

#

How many moths you’ve helped

white garnet
#

hearts are hard to get too since moths like me were getting light w no idea how to give light

tawny prairie
#

that’s the essence of the game

lusty light
#

I wonder if the friendliness ranking will ever see the light of day

white garnet
#

i hope so

tawny prairie
#

me too

sage mulch
#

I’d love to see some version of it come to Live. I like the concept of it.

tawny prairie
#

I also have no idea if my bar is filled or not

white garnet
#

is that the badge thing you mean?

shrewd plover
#

Mm, the game isn't as clear on what to do and I had to learn mostly from unlocking chat with more seasoned players

white garnet
#

the uh roles thing

sage mulch
#

Ye

lusty light
#

I can say that after finishing the constellations, the rate I’ve gotten hearts has slowed down significantly

white garnet
#

ohh

lusty light
#

So the invisible cape worries me

tawny prairie
#

my bar is full and hasn’t changed in weeks?

lunar zealot
#

Oh yeah, that system has been beta exclusive forever

empty river
#

the badge was redesigned recently so I hope so

white garnet
#

how do you do that?

#

the badge*

#

oops

lunar zealot
#

I wonder if it’ll have any purpose outside being friendly

lusty light
#

No one knows exactly how the ranking works, but people have been speculating it goes up by helping new players by opening doors and such

tardy dove
#

I kinda forgot about the ranking

empty river
#

I still wonder what they plan for it

shrewd plover
#

like, what if there really was exclusive cosmetics for said ranking?

white garnet
#

ohhh, so its just a thing that happens and appears whenever?

tawny prairie
#

does it say your a shepherd when it’s full or?

lusty light
#

Yeah

tawny prairie
#

lol guess I haven’t done anything in a while then

white garnet
#

ohhh ive nrver seen it

lusty light
#

Before you could see the shepherd badge over any shepherd player

#

And the newbie badge over every newbie player

#

But I think it was adjusted so only newbies can see shepherds and vise versa

white garnet
#

oh ok

tawny prairie
#

I haven’t seen any newbies in a while in beta so

#

Maybe that’s why it hasn’t gone up SkyThink

lusty light
#

Tfw beta is closed

#

It told me I was a shepherd when the feature came out

#

So I really have no clue how it works

#

A few days ago it went down a little bit but now I’m back to shepherd

tawny prairie
#

Oh it goes down hmm

empty river
#

I haven't seen mine move in a loong time

lunar zealot
#

Hmm seems like a feature to encourage people to be active / help more than they might already

tawny prairie
#

Ya I thought my bar was full since it’s doesn’t move but it hasn’t gone up sooo

white garnet
#

how do you see the bar?

tawny prairie
#

enter your friend screen and hit the mini badge

#

In the corner

white garnet
#

as a newbie in beta i never saw anyone so i never saw any sheperds

#

oh!!!

#

thank you corgi <3333

pallid badger
#

Yeah mine does go down if I don’t play with people for a while. Comes back up within a short time of actually holding hands with and interacting with people.

tawny prairie
#

This feature and candle hoarding for travellers won’t work together haha

worn field
#

it’d be nice to have a general channel where we can just give appreciation for things about sky. #beta-feedback doesn’t seem like the right place, since it’s for specific feedback on things currently being tested...

hybrid wedge
#

You can still give appreciations in the feedback channels. TGC staff read it, so it will still reach them!

woeful lodge
#

@balmy rock the current position of the capeless cape is a placeholder

#

It won’t be in the forest constellation in live

potent hemlock
white garnet
#

does anyone know if the tutorial ui not appearing is a bug in isle? everythings working as usual except for the part where you'd honk to get off the ledge with the first winged light you see/the part where you honk to get launched towards the temple
i'm not sure whether or not to submit a bug report

shrewd plover
#

I'll test it out soon, but I think it hasn't been doing it for me either

white garnet
#

ohh

balmy rock
#

@orchid nexus Sorry for all that - I’d seen other non-beta members in there once or twice, so I was under the impression it was ok. I’ve deleted the message. Also sorry for the way I worded it, I’ll be more constructive next time.

#

I saw someone on FB say that they now did get wing buffs from the travelling spirit, all of 118! Can anyone else confirm?

kindred fossil
hollow compass
#

Oh, lol! It’s the same person.

tardy dove
#

while i don't have all the buffs i definitely got 3 extra stars!

hollow compass
#

Interesting!

kindred fossil
#

but also yes, traveling spirits give wing buffs, for now

hollow compass
#

But won’t that give some players an “unfair” advantage? Hm...something to ponder.

tardy dove
#

hmm

#

but the travelling spirits would be accessible to everyone so eventually everyone would hit that 10th wedge right?

icy falcon
#

do we get a wing buff from the travelling spirits? I thought it was confirmed that they didn't give wing buffs but then how is there someone with 118?

hollow compass
#

It seems to have been introduced with the latest patch.

lusty light
#

Yeah we get wing buffs from them now!

If i bought a season pass the cosmetics on the side are given if i get the one next to it on the straight line or do i just get everything on the side once i buy the pass?

You have to work your way up the line

It won’t be there on live ,Lightseekers season had the umbrella on the fish call also

And they moved it

kindred fossil
#

when they need more testers, that is

bold tree
#

ah

#

well either way the new season is next week so I don’t* mind waiting

orchid nexus
#

@balmy rock there isn't a hard-and-fast rule that "you may not speak in beta-feedback if you're not in beta." The potential problem is that non-beta players hear complaints from beta players that may be partially or even fully fueled by speculation, and then amplify those complaints without the experience to offer a complete evaluation of their own. I'm sure the vast majority of beta players haven't experienced the invisible cape yet, so most people's experience will be approximately equal, which is why I can't say that your opinion doesn't carry equal weight. But I'm almost entirely certain that any high-priced item like that would not block progression on regular constellations.

sage mulch
#

Yeah, Ktjn said that the whale call spirit is only a temporary place for it, and it will be moved at a later date. (Before it’s released out to Live)

Eh, the invisible cape is not the solution to the finite use of hearts, if anything it just makes the heart currency even more divisive because only a select few popular people (and by that, I mean people with thousands of friends and followers) will ever even make any significant progress toward the invisible cape, and once that's achieved, they have nowhere to spend hearts again

sudden leaf
#

Is there any difference between the first two levels of the winter dance emote and the last two? As I see it, they’re exactly the same

tough quest
#

There needs to be a smaller recurring use

orchid nexus
#

or we just play normally, slowly accumulate more hearts than we need, and without grinding specifically with the intention of getting invisicape, eventually get there in like a year.

tough quest
#

for hearts

#

also definitely for ascended candles too

lusty light
#

@sudden leaf levels 3 and 4 pull up an instrument ui and lets you choose from 15 dance poses

sudden leaf
#

Aah, alrighty. Thanks!

blazing sail
#

I just don’t think it’s a healthy thing for the game to encourage. You can say you’re not meant to grind daily to get that 999 hearts, but you know that’s what people will do. I don’t even want to go capeless but a tiny voice in my head is telling me not to be too generous with hearts now bc I may need them again for either that or something I want more that may come along and be super expensive.

#

Like figaro, I find grinding to be a burden and I’m so thrilled to be almost done

#

I was looking forward to just giving hearts to friends and telling them all not to worry about sending back

kindred bluff
#

yeah!

blazing sail
#

But something costing 999 hearts... that changes the whole dynamic

tough quest
#

I just think it was a heavy handed solution to a problem that could have been solved better, by making a recurring, smaller, non cosmetic thing. So that it is less about collecting and maybe more about being able to endlessly play with spells once you have extra hearts

kindred bluff
#

and i'm over here celebrating if i get 30 hearts over a long period of time

#

usually by gifts of light

#

basically it's like

#

spend 999 hearts and you get nothing!

#

but it's cool because you get nothing!

kindred fossil
#

no ones forcing you to spend 999 hearts on "nothing"

narrow valley
#

And you know that the most popular players are going for that 999 heart cost and get it in about a month

#

Meanwhile it takes 1-2 months for the average daily player to grind up to a black or white cape

kindred fossil
#

didnt someone earlier post a screenshot that they had 1000 hearts 😶

tardy dove
#

yea

narrow valley
#

Imagine, the day it goes live, there will already be people who've bought the 999 heart invisible cape

blazing sail
#

Yup

kindred bluff
#

@kindred fossil yeah but it seems really silly if you do end up wanting to be capeless

kindred fossil
#

its an invisible cape, you can fly with it

kindred bluff
#

i personally don't since i have a glitch that makes me capeless but damn

#

oh

Tbh, the invisible cape look is slowly growing on me solely from the preview in closet SkyLOL

I wouldn’t accept hearts from moths if I had 1000 hearts

I just got it in consideration and I’ve never talked about it since I don’t like the idea of being capeless ? But if someone wants it work for it ,and If they don’t wanna work for it then just don’t 🤷🏼‍♂️ ,it wasn’t here before ,now is there for one day

i would help moths around if they didnt die within the first 30 minutes of guiding them

Oof

really though, not that im upset at them, just a bit sad, i hope they come back one day so we can continue

I love helping moths even tho when I was a moth I thought everyone else was an npc

I’m so glad to know I wasnt the only one

#

on my first run in eden i tried to friend people to help me because i was really scared and most of the time they just did the no emote and skadaddled and i had to do eden alone

timber elk
#

Oh man that sucks, first time??

shrewd plover
#

Yeah one of my friends ingame thought everyone was NPCs until I began talking to them

#

oh no D:

timber elk
#

Im so thankful I had a friend to help me and I help as many first timer friends as I can

yeah D:

i had to follow someone around at a distance and i was really confused on where to go on that krill tower lookin thing

Same too, my girlfriend helped me through there for the first time last week
So once I get the layout down more, I'll try to help out more bebes

the first player that ever helped me is barely online anymore pCry though, getting a little offtopic

looks like Sky to me 😉

kindred bluff

but nowadays i mess around in eden and me and my buds do "ultimate skiing" in eden where we fly down the areas where rocks usually fling you down if you fly

Oh that sounds fun

it is! haha

especially with friends

you go so fast

That sounds like a thrill lol

timber elk
#

I dont have all of the stars yet (in live) but I dont really go to eden at all anymore. its fun to bring people tho

kindred bluff
#

i don't really like to do eden when i get all my stars but if it resets me and my friends can do the full run and then go back in just for a "goof off" run

timber elk
#

I should do that

kindred bluff
#

since we have over 20 wing buffs

timber elk
#

one of my friend knows an eden oob, they havent had the chance to bring me yet tho

blazing sail
#

Did my comment scare him from the server?

timber elk
#

Im not sure if its even an oob or just a far off place

#

Lol I think so

livid ice
#

@blazing sail no ,maybe he got kicked out from a mod

Why would he be scared? :”v

#

Well that really killed the convo...lol. Why put a 999 heart item in the game if your not supposed to do what you need to or talk about what it takes to get that many? Hope the ban Bot won’t get me for that. You supposed to get those 999 from people just randomly sending you hearts? Please.

lusty light
#

I don’t trade hearts and I was able to get all 605 hearts to finish all constellations, now I don’t agree with the price being 999 hearts it’s not impossible to do so

#

You absolutely can talk about heart trading in this server. There has been plenty of conversation regarding the capeless item and how it affects the community. Our rules stands for not arranging exchanges in this server. You may do as you please privately outside of the server

orchid nexus

The bot did not ban anyone, and you can talk about what it takes to get, as long as you don't violate server rules.

not exactly. the newly revived seasonal spirits will each sell one. and message candles and light gifts can also add up to hearts. that relies on friends, but not in the same direct way

valid hull
#

Might be sometime next week

#

Oh ok

tawny prairie
#

message candles are pretty much impossible though lol

prime belfry
#

Where would I locate the patch notes please SkyBow

valid hull
#

Are there gonna be wandering spirits for each weekend starting from beginning of season of rhythm

orchid nexus
#

nah, you can work with friends to make message candles work. I've tried coordinating that and it works, but I think it's too much effort 😄

tawny prairie
livid ice
#

At the end you need to ask to friends to like your candle because it doesn’t always appear

tawny prairie
#

Yes I’ve tried too, I spent 30 minutes looking for my friend at the shrine

prime belfry
#

Thank you @tawny prairie

orchid nexus
#

that's the part that's most difficult, corgi, I agree!

tawny prairie
#

And you may not even get a heart since they refresh in 24 or 48 hours so

blazing sail
#

Message candles are very unreliable. Even when I’m actively trying to like friends’ messages, I have to delete like 50 random messages I can’t even read just to see one friend message

#

And if you don’t have a lot of friends, you don’t stand a chance with that since you need 3 likes for others to even see it

#

Been playing since launch and I think I got a heart from messages.... 3 times?

orchid nexus
#

if the display mechanism could be tweaked to show friends with higher frequency, I might go back to them. as it is, I almost never even stop at those anymore

fresh quiver
prime belfry
#

I’ve had one message heart in beta never in live

blazing sail
#

Yeah same. I occasionally put some effort into it when it’s a quest, but it’s too time consuming.

orchid nexus
#

oh, thanks for pointing that out Crystal! I'll kick the bot. meanwhile, you can tap the reaction in any bug channel and it will work the same

blazing sail
#

Takes too long to refresh them

fresh quiver
#

Alright, thank you!

blazing sail
#

Also seems silly to prioritize messages that already have 200 likes

prime belfry
#

Ironically I think I got the heart because there are less people in beta so friends see my message

blazing sail
#

Not really sure how their algorithm works, but that seems counterintuitive

orchid nexus
#

I've gotten several in live, but not recently because it was too much work and I stopped reading them. I love the idea that we see global messages, but in practice it means a lot that I can't read and feels alienating.

prime belfry
#

I heart them anyway

#

Do you get a heart for every ten likes ? Or just for the first 10

spark lance
#

I like messages written with emojis and I tend to heart those the most

white garnet
#

the only time i saw a message below 30 hearts was from my friend and it was in beta :')

blazing sail
#

Yup. And it would be fine if it’s the occasional, but to have all 6 candles at once be strangers and/or a language I can’t read makes it hard to justify standing there refreshing

spark lance
#

Just for the first 10 likes

blazing sail
#

It’s only the first 10

white garnet
prime belfry
#

Could you imagine if you got ♥️ every 10 and got 200 likes wow

blazing sail
#

So like, 200 likes just means someone who’s already getting a heart is taking up space for someone else that might have if their message was shown to people

orchid nexus
#

then my 2000+ likes on a candle would have been a big payday

livid ice
#

Famous people be like

#

XD

prime belfry
#

Omg @orchid nexus epic message

blazing sail
#

Whoa

jagged rune
#

👀

orchid nexus
#

that was back when each like also sent a push notification. sScared

livid ice
#

Messages aren’t only for hearts ,they’re suppose to express something for players ,so that’s why they stay for at least two days

white garnet
#

omg

radiant drum
#

A friend ♥️ your note!

orchid nexus
#

x2000

#

yikes

livid ice
#

I also saw a video about the old beta that you could actually post candles everywhere around the worlds?

orchid nexus
#

it was amusing at first and then... ouch. notifications off.

white garnet
#

people would be wondering why your phone was going ham

orchid nexus
#

yes daesparks, that had some ups and some downs

livid ice
#

I like that :/

white garnet
#

its like a hoco group of 10 people arguing about where dinners gonna be

prime belfry
#

You could fry an egg on your phone with 2000 push notifications

radiant drum
#

I used to get a heart from message candles every other day in live. Not sure if it was because we had less active players back then, or I just spent a lot more time leaving notes and looking for friends, but I don’t really bother anymore

kindred fossil
#

i stopped leaving messages after i realized friends can find and read them, no thanks, theyre too weird

blazing sail
#

I have notifications turned off for the game

livid ice
#

I also like then a player got first time there was a bot - sky children waiting there to explain stuff ... now u just get in and u don’t know what ur doing at first

blazing sail
#

I don’t wanna know when every friend lights my candle lol

#

Or star rather

orchid nexus
#

I liked free placement of messages. some people truly hated it tho

radiant drum
#

When I pass by a shrine I heart messages from friends if they’re there, if not, sFly

livid ice
#

I think it was a good idea

#

Why would u hate it ...

#

:”0

radiant drum
#

I mostly liked it, but it would really clutter the environment sometimes

orchid nexus
#

meh... it was sort of littering places, and low-effort messages going in high-traffic areas were annoying

radiant drum
#

I think with the filter we have now and a toggle option to disable them if you wanted it could be a good idea again

blazing sail
#

That sounds kind of messy

#

Unless they give light orbs. Then put as many as you want 😛

orchid nexus
#

I mostly tried to hide my candles where few or no players would ever find them

radiant drum
#

I kinda like having message candle shrines more tho. Just wish friends messages got more priority SkyCry

orchid nexus
#

except the one I put right in the doorway just past the level trigger, so you could always see it and never read it

radiant drum
#

Yes, going oob and finding Alex’s candle was always a delight. It was like a race to see who would place a message oob first sLUL

kindred fossil
#

enjoying the beautiful scenery until you suddenly encounter a message candle that only says "bepis", you close the app and never look back

radiant drum
#

Yeah, sometimes it would really break the experience especially with weird ones, or when several candles were placed in the same spot with no message at all blobpain

prime belfry
#

I just looked up that meme again

radiant drum
#

It was conflicting enough that I’m glad they decided to remove it

timber elk
#

where is this weekends spirit? prairie?

kindred fossil
#

used to be

timber elk
#

wheres it at now

livid ice
#

There’s no new weekend spirit @timber elk

#

Is the same one from first week

kindred fossil
#

it got replaced by the spirit from isle, you cant claim it

#

the furry cape one is gone??

yes, thats what im trying to say

timber elk
#

oh

Next week may come back

Sad emoji

#

It's kinda fun to see weird message candles like the panicky ones in wasteland, ones that nod at a nearby glitch, or meditation candles that are like "wait what was the question, could you please repeat that"

tawny prairie
#

I saw a lot of IM ALL ALONEEE when that server glitch was happening

Lol

#

from now on im going to leave git gud at every candle shrine in wasteland

tawny prairie
#

you’ve been krilled !!

and you’ve been krilled

sand dawn

I used to try so hard making messages the first 2 months or so.
Now I don’t write anything anymore, mostly because it’s too much effort to like everyone else’s.

I got a good 20~30 hearts with them though..!

How do some people have 118 stars? Are there new star locations

blazing sail
#

Traveling spirits

#

But no one knows yet if they’ll give wing buffs in live

#

@bronze ivy Agree completely with your feedback. Well said! I want the game to step back from pushing the grind and get us coming back because we just want to spend time in the game, not just to earn stuff.

bronze ivy
#

Thanks. I really hope they consider it, and the feedback of others on this problem. I really love this game, and want it to thrive.

blazing sail
#

Things like the home ice rink are exactly what we need. Not new things to grind for.

bronze ivy
#

Exactly!

deft crest
#

Hey guys! Just to notice, how long the previous season spirit stays in the home?

empty river
#

3 days, every weekend

deft crest
#

And will be possible to see it in another moment???

empty river
#

It says after a spirit shows up we won’t see them again for a long time

deft crest
#

Ohhh

#

Thx for information

sand dawn
#

With the current pace of 1 a week and amount of pass season spirits that long time is 4.5 months

#

But as during those 4.5 months, likely 2 more seasons are added, that will increase it more.

rigid socket
#

Where can I find today's seasonal candles?

white garnet
#

valley ice rink 👍

rigid socket
#

!

#

Thank u!

#

I was looking in wasteland and was confused

white garnet
#

yeah i was doing that for a bit too :')

dire escarp
#

@blazing sail totally agree with the stuff to fly through for messing around...
I can't go into the wasteland temple now without wanting to fly slalom around the pillars or fly through the little holes in the grating.

sand dawn
#

I also agree with you @blazing sail
Even though I am more the type of player that plays for long stretches of time, I do agree we should have more quick to access playgrounds (and really just more playgrounds in general)

Flying in sky is a great joy that never seems to get boring (it’s one of the biggest factors why the daily grind is still somewhat enjoyable to me..!

Personally I would very much like to see more really challenging aerial activities.
That one spirit at the citadel where you have to catch the SkyCall things is my favorite!
to bad I can only do it if I drag a moth all the way there..😓

prime vale
#

Something I probably should have checked before buuuttt with the traveling spirits are you able to get the items that required the seasonal pass

#

For a previous season

sand dawn
#

Yes you are able to

prime vale
#

:D ok

valid hull
#

So far ur able to get fox and orange cape

#

*fox mask

sand dawn
#

Not sure how or if that includes the ultimate gift though, really curious about how they will price that one.. if they add it (I feel like they really should, but it will likely be at a significant cost..)

tawny prairie
#

well they did put the piano in a pack which ‘’was’’ winters old reward item SkyThink

radiant drum
#

winter didn't have a reward item

tawny prairie
#

well old as in last week

radiant drum
#

oh SkyLOL

#

yeah, i guess we'll see in live 👀

tawny prairie
#

well more like 4 days ago haha

late prawn
#

are the travelling spirits rhythm-exclusive, seasonal, or will they be a permanent addition when the update comes round ? or is it still up for debate ?

radiant drum
#

they're a permanent addition

#

separate from seasons

late prawn
#

ohh sweet thank u

radiant drum
#

ktjn confirmed it here a while ago

vast bayBOT
#
Ktjn

Visiting spirits is a permanent fixture not tied to the season.

radiant drum
tawny prairie
#

I’m curious when spirits get added to the the rotation

late prawn
tawny prairie
#

like if belonging is added already

#

or if rhythm will be added right after it ends or after some time SkyThink

#

So I unlocked the 2 lost spirits and they gave me stars at the end of eden like all the other permanent spirits I unlocked so awesome. So I was reborn with 42 stars ⭐️

4 weeks of wandering spirits

Now every spirit on oob is gonna be shiney

Does anyone know what it means when you talk to the fox mask spirit

What am I supposed to do??

Relive it's memories and befriend it is what it says
I've found all the other seasonal spirits
Am I supposed to find the fox lady somewhere???

radiant drum
#

yes! the travelling spirits will return to their original location, when they first visited

#

try searching for her somewhere in isle SkyLook

#

Ty

deft crest
#

So if I unlock the previous season spirit and couldn't unlock all features I need to wait till it respawn again?

woeful lodge
#

@deft crest are you referring to the previous traveling spirit?

deft crest
#

Yea

woeful lodge
#

Yeah it looks like you’ll have to wait til it shows up again, in 24 weeks or so...
this is just speculation of course

#

We don’t know when or whether traveling spirits will come back

#

But I assume that they willl all rotate 1 per week through every spirit from seasons past

deft crest
#

Ohhh

woeful lodge
#

So it will take 6 weeks per season

deft crest
#

Well thx for info

woeful lodge
#

Rhythm ends in April so it will be past before the rotation ends too

#

So gratitude, lightseekers, belonging, rhythm is 24 weeks.

#

Rhythm is only 10 weeks (I think they said 10 weeks, so if the Season of Lucha Libre (jk) also lasts 10 weeks and then Season of Apocalypse (also jk) starts 2 weeks after that, then we will likely have 30 weeks before Gratitude spirits come again.

#

In case anyone is confused, I just made up the names for the seasons that will come after Rhythm.

#

Though a “Season of Darkness/Apocalypse” has some really cool potential!!!

atomic yoke
#

April, oh no....

worthy barn

//softly flops over
Imo the seasonal hair looks really cool

#

And also I want a season based off of the wasteland!!
I love it so much

#

Okay so.... they swapped out the bonus spirit again for the fox-face one, instead of the guy with the red cape. I spent a lot of candles/hearts to grab that cape and was aaalllmooosstt there and..... bam. Cape guy is gone and foxy lady is back, and all of my candles were for nothing. Is this a normal thing in beta? You spend and the switch? Only been playing beta for a month or so now.

It's a new feature. Last week was the first time one was introduced

I like qpirs feedback

Other than complaining about the no cape because it’s too much drama

I want elder trees
It’d be a better incentive than the stupid capeless

Yes I love that :0

Lol

worn field
#

a perspective I’m not seeing much on the no-cape is that it’s not really an ‘endgame’/‘incentive’ item, so much as a funny joke item.

atomic yoke
#

Yeah but I don’t like the drama about it

#

Too much

worn field
#

i don’t like the drama either

atomic yoke
#

Good

woeful lodge
#

Agreed

#

And it’s only going to get bigger in live

#

@woeful lodge Your idea to have the cape cost hearts sent to others is genius. Hats off to you!

woeful lodge
#

Thanks

#

Beat the bots and skimmers!

#

And incentivize giving

sage mulch
#

Yeah, prepare for this to escalate when it hits live. 👀💦

atomic yoke
#

Need a tissue?

woeful lodge
#

Lol

#

Im@worried about the new portal / checkpoint system

#

Especially with how frequently friends get separated

atomic yoke
#

Ngl Looney your feedback was better than the others

#

They are just too much for the past few days by now

woeful lodge
#

/blushes/

atomic yoke
#

Makes me sick

sage mulch
#

Haha, altho I read how I think they at least made it harder to get separate from friends.

woeful lodge
#

I hope so

sage mulch
#

Or I think I read that..

atomic yoke
#

Errreeee

woeful lodge
#

I don’t remember seeing that but certainly it’s likely that I missed stuff

atomic yoke
#

XD

worn field
#

I thought the new system was implemented partially because it fixes the seperation problem

sage mulch
#

It’ll be stress tested in live, tho. If true.
My memory’s bad.

woeful lodge
#

The other thing that I need to test now that they finished the new checkpoint system is whether 2 friends kneel at home at the sameish time will we join the level together

atomic yoke
#

Don’t we all?

#

I remember joining my friend after 10 seconds it kicked me to another server :/

#

Like what?!

woeful lodge
#

Anyone want to test checkpoints with me?

sage mulch
#

Either way, expect some confusion with the new shrine system. Especially with those who don’t have easy access to patch notes.

woeful lodge
#

Definitely!

#

“Help I keep starting at the beginning of the level whener I run through the portal”

#

🤦🏻‍♂️

sage mulch
#

I really wish there was some way to easily access the notes in-game. So that everyone’s on the same page.

worn field
#

there is though

woeful lodge
#

That wouldn’t completely fix it

#

People doesn’t reeees

#

Reeed

arctic pecan
#

Hmm best to tell everyone about the patch as soon the season comes out for Live

atomic yoke
#

Read

woeful lodge
#

Lol I not spells gud

sage mulch
#

At least obvious to the player...

woeful lodge
#

(I did it on purpose)

#

I’m gonna go test checkpoints with a friend. If anyone wants to join me, tag me and I’ll send an invite.

worn field
#

it’s not obvious, but patch notes are available by tapping support in the settings menu

woeful lodge
#

OOH there’s another update

sage mulch
#

Like what if there was some sort of bulletin board (outside of the daily message.) where players can check for news at any time. (Without resetting your game.)

woeful lodge
#

REALLY?!?! I had no idea @worn field Seriously checking that out now

sage mulch
#

Yes, but not every player is going to think on doing that.

woeful lodge
#

I didn’t even know about it. Lol!

sage mulch
#

Haha, exactly.

worn field
#

yeah it’s a little hidden

sage mulch
#

Prime example. And not every player is going to have the guidance to tell them where to check.

worn field
#

even if they did know they were there, most players probably wouldn’t read them anyway

woeful lodge
#

Well I feel silly

#

They’re right there

#

That’s actually really nice!

worn field
#

i only found it last week

#

yeah it’s neat

woeful lodge
#

Hey @arctic pecan who do we need to poke to get awareness up about being able to see the patch notes from the support menu?

#

At the very least we could plaster that info all over the discord, insta, FB, and twitter

sage mulch
#

Patch notes are posted to social medias, pretty sure.

woeful lodge
#

This is not entirely Beta relevant tho

#

We maybe should move this specific convo

exotic atlas
#

a newsboard in game would be really nice

sage mulch
#

But again, not everyone has a social media.
I guess? Although it did stem from possible confusion with the new meditation method...

arctic pecan
#

Yeah news board would be lovely tbh

exotic atlas
#

During lightseekers a lot of people didn't know about the mask not being the ultimate reward

#

I feel like some sort of way to access that info and have it out clearly for players inside the app would be nice

#

Are you guys on Android? I'm not seeing a new download on TestFlight.

Yee! mintyfrog

#

Thanks for telling me about the patch notes location. The latest patch notes I see are for January 10th?

worn field
#

that’s right

#

they don’t release notes for every build

atomic yoke
#

I don’t kno

worn field
#

don’t know what?

atomic yoke
#

I’m not sure about the date

worn field
#

jan 10th update was a major update, with the rhythm season and the visiting spirits. subsequent updates have been smaller, generally jusy making changes here and there, not adding a lot.

atomic yoke
#

Eh ok

woeful lodge
#

Ok so checkpoint stuff: in beta, with the new checkpoint, if me and a friend are at home and we both resume the same checkpoint at the same time we both show up in the level together in the same session

#

And I am able to join a friend who is in a locked area

#

Ooh but I didn’t check whether it matters that my savepoint is in that same locked area

#

Brb

spark lance
#

There's another update?

#

I have downloaded 145372 hours ago

woeful lodge
#

Yep that’s it

#

I’m just late

spark lance
#

Ah ok

#

clarify next time XD

pulsar edge
#

Wait, why is the fox spirit back?

#

And where’d the orange cape one go?

exotic atlas
#

think they bought it back since they changed the prices and wanted to see our reactions

pulsar edge
#

I didn’t get to see any new prices

hybrid wedge
#

The answer to any “Why” question in beta: to see if it works better

pulsar edge
#

It was all bought out. Except for some reason the blessings were back unbought

#

@hybrid wedge that’s vague tho. I was asking what they were testing to make better

hybrid wedge
#

If they spent time writing out all the details and decision making process, they’d never have time to finish updating anything in the game ^^

pulsar edge
#

Mind telling me the new pricing?

woeful lodge
#

5 for spell

#

12 for hat

#

2 ascended

pulsar edge
#

Ooh much cheaper

woeful lodge
#

Something in the middle

prime vale
#

THEY

hybrid wedge
#

Plus, there are many times where telling a person the goal of your experiment taints the experiment. There are a number of reasons for not spelling everything out.

woeful lodge
#

I just posted a screenshot of everything under the ascended candle

#

Ok Id like to ask everyone else to mess with checkpoints with friends

#

I’m getting really mixed results

#

Especially as regards “locked” areas

#

If my friend and I have the same checkpoint we port into the same session

#

I can join my friend in a locked area

#

Sometimes

pulsar edge
#

@hybrid wedge think of what I saw tho. The current spirit was gone, replaced by an old one with the two blessings unbought, but no price change that I could see. My immediate reaction was to assume a bug. I even made a bug report.

radiant drum
#

It’s the same as entering a portal before if you had the same checkpoint, for Eden and ||the office|| for example

woeful lodge
#

If I port home from a locked area, I can then join my friend in that same locked area

#

I don’t believe I could do that in live @radiant drum

#

I’m testing with the prarie cave atm

radiant drum
#

You definitely can continue eden and ||the office|| with friends from home if you both have the checkpoint there

#

Just cross the eden or vault portal together

#

In live I mean

woeful lodge
#

Sorry I’ll clarify

#

So I go home and my friend stays in prarie cave

prime vale
#

I was gonna be slightly mad they made the mask cheaper because I already had 121 candles prepared for the mask and was preparing for the cape but then I realized

Cheaper

woeful lodge
#

I can then find my friend in the constellation and join my friend in the prarie cave

prime vale
#

I might be able to get more stuff now

radiant drum
#

Beta is always subject to change

#

@woeful lodge I’m not sure I follow. Can you explain with more steps 😄

woeful lodge
#

@spark lance im sorry that’s just what I saw someone else post. I may be wrong.

#

Sure @radiant drum

#

Would DM be easier?

prime vale
#

And there goes my wifi

radiant drum
#

I think here is fine because this might be a good experiment for others to try as well

#

The feature is new so is nice that we’re testing it out

#

I’m just not sure what the goal or new thing is

woeful lodge
#

Ok

#

Odd checkpoint behavior for verification re: locked areas.

  • I enter prarie WITH FRIEND
  • Friend and I enter prarie cave (locked area)
  • I teleport home FRIEND STAYS IN LOCKED AREA
  • from home, I find my friend’s Star then JOIN friend
  • I am taken to my friend in prarie cave

This only seems to work if my checkpoint was in the same session as my friend.

#

If I move my checkpoint then move it back to the cave then go home and try to join my friend I get the normal message: “your friend is in a place...”

#

@radiant drum

#

I did this in the valley citadel also

#

I haven’t tried it in eden yet and I can’t get to ||the office|| in beta yet

radiant drum
#

SkyThink but prairie cave isn’t a locked area

woeful lodge
#

Um... it always has been for me...?

#

Maybe “locked” is a wrong word?

#

You can’t join friends in prarie cave

radiant drum
#

Sometimes there’s errors where you can’t join your friend (even tho you should be able to). Maybe you’ve always got the error when trying to join there 😄

#

I’m pretty sure I’ve joined friends there before, but will test on live and beta just in case 👀

woeful lodge
#

... every time... 🤦🏻‍♂️

#

Hehe

#

I’ll go try it in the forest clearing next

#

Cuz I know for sure that’s locked

#

Same thing definitely didn’t work in Eden

#

The only way to make sure I’m in the same session as my friend there is to teleport in at the same time

#

In any case that alleviates my concern with the new resume checkpoint system

#

It’s a little more finicky than holding hands and running through a portal, but at least we still end up together at our destination if we had our checkpoints in the same room

atomic yoke
#

Wait wait...

#

They changed the price to 25??

woeful lodge
#

No

#

I was wrong apparently

atomic yoke
#

Ah ok

woeful lodge
#

You’re not the first person I confused

#

I deleted that message

Lighting is definitely acting up: I entered the game now and it was daylight, double-checked the travelling spirit and it turned night time

kindred bluff
#

ohhh

stoic badger
#

The one with the cat mask returned and the items she has were half the price they were originally

kindred bluff
#

the traveler’s pr

#

oh

stoic badger
#

Looks like they quickly adjusted based on feedback, nice

kindred bluff
#

well diggy darn i actually hope some of the more detailed things keep their price because

#

i have almost 200 candles

stoic badger
#

Hehehe, nice B)#

kindred bluff
#

and i prepped for a very long time D:

stoic badger
#

Looks like you'll get a bunch of them then

kindred bluff
#

haha yeah!

stoic badger
kindred bluff
#

i actually kinda hope the cape keeps its price though, its very dear to my heart D:

stoic badger
#

Ive grown to like the red cape a lot, but my joy from it doesn't come from denying others the ability to get it. I want people to find and get the customization items they enjoy and to enjoy the game at the same time.

kindred bluff
#

its not that, its more of that thats a pretty good price for something that people payed for before this season even happened

#

the fox mask is understandable because i think it was the cheapest mask? but im not sure if it was payed for or not

stoic badger
#

I dont know where it was on the cosmetics tree

radiant drum
#

The isle mask was free, but pass exclusive

kindred bluff
#

same

#

ohh

#

i think it was 15 candles for the free node

radiant drum
#

Orange cape was 5 hearts, pass exclusive as well

kindred bluff
#

hhmm

stoic badger
#

If people were to buy the cat mask using IAPs it would still cost them $7, which is a lot but since the price can be offset with in-game candles it becomes manageable

#

Oh god I totally forgot they made the last cosmetics require hearts, that was a nightmare o _ o'

blissful lintel
#

Hi guys

radiant drum
#

Yeah I think the reduced price is still expensive, but more manageable

blissful lintel
#

Is the new season tomorow or next week? 😭

stoic badger
#

Their old prices were... not... that...

kindred bluff
#

im alright with the cape being reduced to maybbee 50? 40? but 30? D:

stoic badger
#

Next week @blissful lintel

blissful lintel
#

Awww 😦

stoic badger
#

@kindred bluff Its a price thats attainable, means that other people get to enjoy the warm, fuzzy, ascot-infused cape

blissful lintel
#

23rd?

stoic badger
#

It's not like we're playing an MMO with a free market where everything becomes an investment, its just a clothing item

kindred bluff
#

i know its just

#

h

#

its so detailed and

#

:((

radiant drum
#

You can always submit feedback on the new prices as well. I’m sure they will listen, but it must be tough balancing the prices so it’s fair to both players that got it during the season and to new players

kindred bluff
#

i feel like it could gradually increase in price thr more people get the swing of things

stoic badger
#

That assumes there will be a cut-off point for new players though

kindred bluff
#

hmmm

stoic badger
#

Also, this game aint built for grinding. The concept of grinding this game is essentially speedrunning the game on a regular basis. At least for me that has really eroded the experience of the levels themselves @ _ @

#

I dont want to subject any new players to that

kindred bluff
#

am i under estimating the halved price of the fox mask?

#

is it like 30? cause thats totally fine

stoic badger
#

It was halved, from 50 to 25

kindred bluff
#

ah

stoic badger
#

Same for the Candy Corn Cap, 25 rounded down to 12

kindred bluff
#

oo

#

alrighty uhhh

#

i guess thats alright

stoic badger
#

You dont have to like it XD

kindred bluff
#

the sky squad fan disc was very shook by this whole thing

#

me and a friend were just kinda upset because we spent a lot of time really intensely grinding for this stuff

radiant drum
#

Maybe take this as a lesson for the future. This is beta, and all things are subject to change. Understanding things are not set in stone and might change completely will save you some frustration ^^

kindred bluff
#

ahh but its still good to come prepared

stoic badger
#

I feel you, I spent a lot of time getting these items too. Id argue theres a better lens to look through this however...

  • TGC ultimately set the experience for the season pass. It's not on new players to bear the burden for our season pass experience but TGC for not making the experience a diverse and interesting one.
  • This game is supposed to be about friendship and altruism. It's not very altruistic to expect other people to pay a lot for an item just because of the experience you had getting it.
radiant drum
#

But hey, at least it changed to a lower price not higher SkyLOL

stoic badger
#

Oh boy if they did...

kindred bluff
#

but a lot of the cool things that are free outweigh the pass stuff for me and makes me nit really want to get it in the first place

#

xylophone hawk mask pants and 3 hair

#

and the gratitude items outbalance it even more

#

by 9 to 7

stoic badger
#

Hmm? Im not sure I understand the point you're trying to make

kindred bluff
#

basically theres significantly more things on the free spectrum of the season thats actually pretty rad compared to pants, capes, and a piano people already bought in previous packs

#

and gratitude spirits puts more rad items on the free spectrum as well

stoic badger
#

Well I guess you dont have to buy it if you want, although few people were involved in the Limited Live version of the game compared to the size of the player base

#

Very few people have those capes and pants owo

kindred bluff
#

ill definitely regret ranting about this later since my hype and adrenaline will calm down and ill realize okay its just a season but i need to get this off my chest or i might spontaneously combust

stoic badger
#

Hahahahahaha

#

Ive felt that way about some of my experiences in Sky, its a game i regularly feel conflicted about

kindred bluff
#

i always want to feel special in games and i love rare items in real life D: but then realize they are pretty useless

#

or not as cool as they seemed

stoic badger
#

Id say thats kind of the point when it comes to manufactured scarcity

#

Its not about how you actually feel

#

It helps drive sales, but its more important to think about what you actually like or want to do, and to try and set aside the FOMO that's being intentionally generated

kindred bluff
#

i would prob give my liver for the red/orange cape

#

and a piece of my spine for the dragon mask

stoic badger
#

After the third season finished I felt like I could look at the clothing items I actually wanted to wear

#

Atm im just rocking a banana cape and pan flute, keeping it simple

kindred bluff
#

i only havve 3 normal in-game capes and 3 season capes

stoic badger
#

Ah, so you're waiting on the red seasonal cape?

kindred bluff
#

the fluffy gratitude one yeah! :0

stoic badger
#

kindred bluff
#

H O N K

#

The pants this season look like they fell out of a late 80s wardrobe though, so much purple

kindred bluff
#

imagine if the bell from gratitude came out

#

du- goose mask + bell

stoic badger

shadow minnow
#

will the red cape elf hat gratitude traveling spirit come back since, after the update, the cat mask spirit came back?

stoic badger
#

Not sure with the beta, although keep in mind everything you collect in the beta wont be permanent

shadow minnow
#

was just a little confused about the order in which the traveling spirits appear thanks @stoic badger 👍

kindred bluff
#

it could be randomized in live @shadow minnow
but in beta it's cat/fox/weasel mask and then red/orange cape!

shadow minnow
#

@kindred bluff thanks dude! now i’ll know what to save up for lol

kindred bluff
#

the fox mask's prices got reduced in half to 25 candles and the hat's price with the spirit also got cut in half though so! pEyes

#

no problem!

shadow minnow
#

Ö

#

interestingpSquint

worn field
#

fox mask is 40 candles for me

#

i just checked

kindred fossil
#

fox weasel mask was reduced to 40

#

not 25

kindred bluff
#

ohh

#

hmm!

#

i'm not in beta so i'm just going off speculation!

#

@shadow minnow nevermind! it's 40 haha

atomic yoke
#

40?!?

kindred bluff

it was reduced by 10!

final lance

guys how much total price of ball trick spirit's constellation? (seasonal)

pulsar edge
#

@atomic yoke Keep in mind that they have to appease the annoying people with IAP privilege attitude

shadow minnow
#

what’s iap @pulsar edge ?

pulsar edge
#

In app purchase

shadow minnow
#

ohhhh

kindred bluff
#

i didn't have gratitude but

atomic yoke
#

Bruh

pulsar edge
#

“IAP privilege attitude” is “I paid for it, so it’s not fair to me that others can get it without paying”

kindred bluff
#

i now have a screwed sleep cycle because of grinding until 5 am

#

i have 200 candles from grinding

atomic yoke
#

I’m not even...

#

XD

#

irl

#

Uhm I’m not in beta

kindred bluff
#

same

#

we're both in this bud hehe

atomic yoke
#

Yaaa

kindred bluff
#

i try to do as much research as i can

kindred fossil
#

people are going to spend money either way, dont see the issue

kindred bluff
#

well, for pass yeah haha

pulsar edge
#

For the record, I bought gratitude pass, and I’m happy they’re bringing these spirits back

#

Even though I already have it all

kindred bluff
#

i don't have gratitude but yeah it doesn't seem fair to just give something away for something you can get straight up so i'm glad that they're the price that they are

slate oar
#

I’m just chiming in. I need to know. Why aren’t the people complaining about the gratitude traveler things being free also complaining about office glitches?

#

It’s confusing

pulsar edge
#

Because these people are the office glitchers

kindred bluff
#

aw nuts

#

foiled again

#

listen i was gonna buy it bu-but

slate oar
#

I personally don’t care about the office glitches

shadow minnow
#

what office glitches?

slate oar
#

But if you’re gonna complain about people getting free content that you paid for

pulsar edge
#

They patched almost all of them out anyway

kindred bluff
#

i know two office glitches

pulsar edge
#

There are only 3 ways to glitch in now

kindred bluff
#

oh

shadow minnow
#

ohhh i see

pulsar edge
#

There used to be over 10

kindred bluff
#

they did some mighty fine work

slate oar
#

Why complain about the gratitude stuff that maybe costed you $15 at most? But then you don’t complain about those who glitch past a barrier that people pay $30 to get past officially?

#

I’ve seen literally no complaints about that

atomic yoke
#

._.

shadow minnow
#

because the people who bought the $30 cape used the glitches before they purchased

pulsar edge
#

Well for one, office isn’t a item, it’s just a place, and you can get in just by having a friend

kindred bluff
#

i don't even go there that often, people are too noisy and i only get candles and chat with friends

#

but it has connection issues now so not even chatting with people

atomic yoke
#

Yami the price for the Founders cape in AED is 109.99

#

:)

slate oar
#

Doesn’t matter if they glitched in or not. It still kind of insults others who maybe didn’t glitch in before paying

atomic yoke
#

For me

kindred bluff
#

i thought it was 25 dollars

atomic yoke
#

And I’m suffering from the Excluded Vat that they added

kindred bluff
#

which is too much for me to ask for seeing that that's literally over our daily budget that our dad gives us

pulsar edge
#

Also, these people are afraid that if the so-called “noobs” have all the old cosmetics, they won’t be special anymore.

kindred bluff
#

and my mom

atomic yoke
#

Eee

kindred bluff
#

i mean i'm a 4 month noob and i say yeah it's kinda removing the quality

slate oar
#

It’s still strange that the main argument of many of these complaints are extremely hypocritical. Some of the complaints I’ve seen...if you don’t want anyone else to get the gratitude items just say so. Don’t beat around the bush

kindred bluff
#

sorry to argue

worn field
#

part of it might be that people will often take you in to the office anyway

pulsar edge
#

@slate oar yep

atomic yoke
#

Your a not a noob lost

You’re a beautiful moth

kindred bluff

yess

i've only participated in belonging and a small fraction of lightseekers

each new season is special and crafted with care

I just don’t like people arguing over something dumb that’s all :/

I’m staring at Ktjn’s status and I should probably listen to it

kindred bluff
#

it's kinda like real world scenarios where the old are artifacts and the new are to be

kindred fossil
#

everyone has their reasons, id rather not jump to conclusions, but by the time a wandering spirits comes by, the items youve paid for are probably 4-6 months old by now, it has worn out

arctic pecan
#

sneepy town you guys go~

kindred bluff
#

i don't think seasons should be brought back and i don't mind admiring the old seasons i cant get

#

even though yeah it'll make me sad

pulsar edge
#

Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery, today is a gift, that is why they call it the present.

atomic yoke
#

Yes

I like this one

i mean 4 days from now isn't really a mystery haha

It’s not in reference to sky tho
