Basically add more content

#

Not even the most original ideas

#

Give more info on what would they look like

sick egret Nov 8, 2025, 3:55 PM

#

gimme a sec

#

ok it may be a bit more than a sec

sick egret Nov 8, 2025, 4:34 PM

#

#

first is this water area (which I'm surprised doesn't exist aready)

sick egret Nov 8, 2025, 4:49 PM

#

the evolution quest would to kill them with arrows with the buckshot dark divinity

sick egret Nov 8, 2025, 5:29 PM

#

fake special box miniboss

sick egret Nov 8, 2025, 10:01 PM

#

a bunch of mid-game minibosses would be really cool

#

I think if you kill a giant with only 1 sword strike (aka when you go straight through it) you should get a material guaranteed, and 2 if you were to already get 1 normally

#

I don't even know if there's a proper term for it

sick egret Nov 9, 2025, 3:01 PM

#

a dark divinity where when you're afk your minions automatically claim and start their missions would be pretty cool

sick egret Nov 10, 2025, 2:28 AM

#

ok nvm I just found out that there's an upgrade that takes away the cost of missions, that dd would be OP as heck

cursive basin Nov 10, 2025, 2:44 AM

#

oh
you're not at the point where the cost was meaningless adrian

sick egret Nov 10, 2025, 2:45 AM

#

I am, I was just thinking the drawback for the dd would be so that missions done afk would cost more

#

didn't know it would just like cease to exist

#

(about ten times more by the way)

cursive basin Nov 10, 2025, 3:23 AM

#

The Slayer points are irrelevant, it's all about the Divinity points. building up a mountain of them is integral to your progress. The more you have, the easier the game gets.

sick egret Nov 10, 2025, 3:29 AM

#

on that topic we need more bow modifiers like buckshot and dark projectiles

#

like a full auto where if you hold, the bow fires at 1.25 its fire speed

#

or one that increases its damage and gives it gravity

#

or even one that increases it from 3 arrows to 5

#

could be really fun to see

sick egret Nov 10, 2025, 12:10 PM

#

sick egret like a full auto where if you hold, the bow fires at 1.25 its fire speed

(this would lower its damage and attack radius by a tiny amount)

cursive basin Nov 10, 2025, 12:23 PM

#

the "auto" part is the important part, the part that especially isn't happening

chilly pebble Nov 10, 2025, 1:49 PM

#

tbh bow is not even that important for like 90% of the game

#

like... if you lose the ability to shoot a bow, its not gonna hurt your progression speed much

#

and making it relevant just require a level of buff that is just unrealistic imo

rustic forge Nov 10, 2025, 3:23 PM

#

It's fun to use tho

sick egret Nov 10, 2025, 11:01 PM

#

cursive basin the "auto" part is the important part, the part that especially isn't happening

I mean it keeps it going when you hold so your fingers don't wanna evaporate

#

as a bonus, if you hold it while you're in the air and keep it held when you land, you keep firing on the ground

cursive basin Nov 10, 2025, 11:11 PM

#

then don't do that

rustic forge Nov 10, 2025, 11:15 PM

#

I don't get what u mean, it's not auto if it's just hold lol

#

But yea, plab wouldn't add this probably

sick egret Nov 10, 2025, 11:21 PM

#

its auto if its automatic

rustic forge Nov 10, 2025, 11:22 PM

#

I was talking to cdj

#

The idea looks fun, ngl

sick egret Nov 10, 2025, 11:22 PM

#

but yeah I just want more bow modifiers that aren't like hyper mode game breaking style, just fun to have

rustic forge Nov 10, 2025, 11:23 PM

#

Yup, bow is so much fun to just fire, would be cool to have more effects n stuffs

sick egret Nov 10, 2025, 11:26 PM

#

also Tboi style homing shots would look really pretty as well

cursive basin Nov 10, 2025, 11:28 PM

#

As per the rules, the game is not meant to be automated. Thus, highly doubt auto-fire Bow will ever be added no matter how many times it's mentioned
#👋welcome

#

on that note
This is an idle game
Have you tried turning the game off?

sick egret Nov 10, 2025, 11:29 PM

#

I don't mean turret fire

#

I mean if you hold the button down, the bow automatically shoots at your current unlocked pace

#

you still have to aim, it's not just do nothing

#

besides, the bow does 1 whole damage, and I've seen that lategame enemies have more than 1 health

#

so it wouldn't even be that meta or apocalyptic to have the 1-damage item that barely does anything to be more fun to use

#

I don't want it to be the next big strat, I want it to be a fun "projectile do projectile thingies" thing

cursive basin Nov 11, 2025, 12:32 AM

#

sick egret besides, the bow does 1 whole damage, and I've seen that lategame enemies have m...

The bow does more than one damage long before that point

#

As enemy health increases, so does sword and bow damage

sick egret Nov 11, 2025, 12:50 AM

#

wait what

#

I have NEVER seen a way to upgrade bow damage

#

....

#

its in armory isnt it

#

im gonna be real, I don't think I'll be able to unlock it THIS UA and it's my second one

cursive basin Nov 11, 2025, 12:51 AM

#

(Bow also can reach higher than 200x souls, around the same as Rage in late-game)

sick egret Nov 11, 2025, 12:52 AM

#

huh

#

ok I did not know how wack the bow was

#

I feel like the auto fire thing should only just be an easy way to not ruin the screen then

#

because I did NOT know the bow got that crazy

chilly pebble Nov 11, 2025, 12:56 AM

#

something something players too new to the game dont know existence of features later in the game and made feedbacks anyways

sick egret Nov 11, 2025, 12:57 AM

#

well the stuff I'm proposing is for midgame

#

so there isn't like this negative parabola of activity

chilly pebble Nov 11, 2025, 12:58 AM

#

cursive basin (Bow also can reach higher than 200x souls, around the same as Rage in late-game...

tbf, you will still be travelling slower and rage is mostly used for coins... plus bows struggle with killing giants still till super late game and some other stuff that make it still not too relevant imo

sick egret Nov 11, 2025, 12:58 AM

#

except that also means you don't really know when something is gonna end up being like crack shack sicko mode after like one upgrade

chilly pebble Nov 11, 2025, 1:00 AM

#

sick egret well the stuff I'm proposing is for midgame

well even if it was added, i doubt it will be midgame... id say ure just getting out of the tutorial stage. the game is like any incremental game in that there are parts where it is just slow and probably intentional

sick egret Nov 11, 2025, 1:00 AM

#

I'm just post-Victor

chilly pebble Nov 11, 2025, 1:00 AM

#

i think adding complexity will alienate a lot of players who value the simplicity of the game anyways

sick egret Nov 11, 2025, 1:01 AM

#

is that like early midgame or late early game

chilly pebble Nov 11, 2025, 1:01 AM

#

just for a reference of game mechanics that already exist, you get some more bow related upgrade at a quadrillion sp

#

and its quite meh

sick egret Nov 11, 2025, 1:02 AM

#

ok I am NOT getting there any time soon

chilly pebble Nov 11, 2025, 1:02 AM

#

if things were to be added, they will probably be even more expensive that that

sick egret Nov 11, 2025, 1:02 AM

#

I'll reach that in July

#

but still I feel like more midgame stuff should be added that isn't like the most insane or complex thing ever, but also not completely irrevelant, just to keep things from feeling stagnant

#

like areas for example

#

you get Hot Desert at about late early game

#

just getting into midgame

chilly pebble Nov 11, 2025, 1:04 AM

#

tbh you can fly past most of the game if u know what ure doing and mid game is already the golden spot for content

sick egret Nov 11, 2025, 1:04 AM

#

and then the next and final area is LITERALLY AT PAST LATEGAME

chilly pebble Nov 11, 2025, 1:04 AM

#

if the game doesnt add endgame content soon, i think it will just continue to push its more loyal players away

sick egret Nov 11, 2025, 1:05 AM

#

honestly, just both mid and late stuff should be added

#

#

from what I see, midgame has a bunch of upgrades, but after your first UA, you've seen all the sights until the next big ramp

#

and at endgame, the soul tree is just basically a png, since after astral you're only ever gonna see tiny things added to it

#

I feel like more areas and quests should be added to midgame to keep you satiated until the next progress ramp, and in endgame should be where all the hyper insano-style upgrades should be where you're just like "so worth it"

chilly pebble Nov 11, 2025, 1:17 AM

#

sick egret from what I see, midgame has a bunch of upgrades, but after your first UA, you'v...

no you havent

sick egret Nov 11, 2025, 1:18 AM

#

I mean like it gets REALLY slow until you do something big, then slow again

#

also the fact that quests reset every UA does NOT help

#

is there a lategame upgrade that prevents that or no

#

if not that really should exist

cursive basin Nov 11, 2025, 1:36 AM

#

answer to that is still no, except for the quests that unlock new Equipment

sick egret Nov 11, 2025, 1:38 AM

#

yeah I feel like that should be a thing because on the first and second UA it does give the feeling of truly starting over but stronger but after that it's just really annoying

#

there should just be more all around upgrades that increase your ability to come back after a UA, because since you don't get anything but achievements for a second UA for over half of a 100% playthrough, if someone didn't know how wack the stones were, I could totally see them just going raw with no UA for a majority of the progression

#

because having to redo the entire quest progression line sounds REALLY brutal, especially the further you get

#

so naturally, when you get far enough down the quest line, you won't want to UA

#

because you've spent literal weeks getting to that point

#

but then you HAVE to UA, and it feels like a brutal sucker punch

#

it's just all around a flawed idea

cursive basin Nov 11, 2025, 1:48 AM

#

It's almost like there are a lot of upgrades for that, some of which you already unlocked

sick egret Nov 11, 2025, 1:49 AM

#

the only one I've seen is Silk Master, and that still costs so many SP

#

WAIT THAT PROVES MY EXACT POINT BECAUSE I LITERALLY DON'T KNOW ABOUT ANY OF THE OTHER UPGRADES FOR PROGRESSION PRESERVATION

#

yeah I really don't like the quest reset

cursive basin Nov 11, 2025, 2:06 AM

#

the point is that someone who has only recently beaten the first boss isn't going to know what endgame or even mid-game is like BrunHehe
