[untold sluice]

The garden rocks are HUGE and all over my plot now, just full time mining stone haha.

However, still wish we could get biome painting or a way to flatten grass so the paths stick out more. The rocks just being inside of grass and obscured by them is meh.

Would be nice if there was a "patted down grass" object that can be placed to flatten areas of grass without placing a visible object.

[glossy sable]

oh interesting. I still want more maps lol. Surely this cant be it...

[lyric night]

earth is between tamalas house and proudhorn

[pallid ferry]

I didn’t know what else to call the rock edging and wood edging

[brisk spruce]

we've definitely seen references to a number of other location names, I think they're just trying to contain the "prologue" stuff to the kilima & bahari bay area

[gritty socket]

Honestly, when we get all the temples and corresponding bundles, I feel like we honestly would have enough content for someone just coming in to be happy until they start their post-1.0 updates

[untold sluice]

Curious if every map will have their own bundle set and temples

[old dirge]

We do still have that great big door in the outskirts and the little garden on the other side of the wall on our plot

[untold sluice]

Yeah, best to finish out these areas before pushing new maps when you haven't finished old ones.

Still want a Bahari home plot too. They also can modify the map edges to add anything they want. (would love map expansions too not just extra map areas but making places like Kilima larger, etc)

[old dirge]

I think we'll get the whole island province of bahari eventually

[pallid ferry]

There’s the valley north of our garden plot, the gate west in North Bahari. I feel like we’ll def get more.

[gritty socket]

There's also a bit that looks like a boarded up and collapsed tunnel at the edge of northern Bahari

[untold sluice]

I have a personal suspicion that the wall behind Mirror Pond in Kilima is blocking a path because the mountains break up into a thin fissure valley, break the wall and the path could be accessible, likely to Elderwood given it's North

[pearl kindle]

whoa we're getting 0.175 so soon :O

[celest maple]

yeah 😅

[old dirge]

Oh there is the mountain spot maji go to as a rite of passage

[untold sluice]

Im hoping they go back through on some of these new sets and add customization options. Can't change color of ornaments, can't change color of the Investigator set to not be purple and blue, etc.

[gritty socket]

TBH, it makes sense, since the 'every two weeks' release schedule would make the normal release date land around the holidays

[untold sluice]

I imagine that's the zone north of Elderwoods when we get that....or it's like Bahari Bay where half the zone is the woods and the other half is the mountains, but I don't expect that. I hope Elderwoods is entirely dense woodlands of varying types: the orange mushroom trees, dense spooky woods, and maybe something like a swamp or lake area theme'd around water

[pearl kindle]

i've been waiting for that bookworm outfit to come back 👀 cautiously excited for what's to come

did someone already mention the broken bridge that seems to stretch across kilima lake? i hope that's another place to explore in the future

[untold sluice]

I need books first, bookshelves with no books is just wrong

[indigo dust]

is palia premiering anything on tonight’s awards? 👀

[sudden bay]

I am hoping they fix the "request" menu so you can at least request things you don't have. Right now you have to have it in your backpack to request it.

[indigo dust]

i see u dulla man 👀 watching for u guys❤️ i luv s6

[old dirge]

plus moving it up means all the assets and actions around winterlights, subira, and temple of gales are in there which should help some

[outer atlas]

happy birthday!!!

[kind gazelle]

sup mud!

[indigo dust]

hello!! how are u this crispy evening or time zone

[warm python]

SOKEN SOKEN SOKEN SOKEN SOKEN

FF7R thing was amazing, but /sadly wipes off the FFIX remake announcement clown makeup

[warm python]

Thank you for the birthday wishes!!!

[south plaza]

There's lots of places where hints of more content are including that bridge. The two locations on our plots, even the boat dock, the door in the constellation temple, the library ruins by jina
In bahari bay: large ruins doors in the outskirts, several locations in mines, collapsed mine near thorny, the rest of the fortress...

[warm python]

I'mma be real DLC as ongoing game is strange.

[south plaza]

Huh?

[soft burrow]

is it going to be paid dlc or is it going to just be unlocks like in ffxiv?

[warm python]

Cyberpunk DLC won best ongoing game at game awards

[soft burrow]

nevermind i contradicted myself. ffxiv is pay. i havent played in a year so i got silly

[kind gazelle]

joining the commotion on the new channel

[warm python]

New Channel?

[kind gazelle]

https://discord.com/channels/809856101326913567/1033069003100393572

also haiii relika!

[brisk spruce]

hey look https://www.nintendo.com/us/store/products/palia-switch/

[warm python]

Hiii! Sorry I've been at my friend's house and didn't know there was a new channel lol

..... 14th??

[scarlet hazel]

i dont know why but that gives me a heavy impending doom vibe...

[celest maple]

so after all.. the jp store was correct.
https://web.archive.org/web/20231205234741/https://store-jp.nintendo.com/list/software/70010000070250.html

[outer atlas]

hbahbahabha i love that they didnt even get to announce it

[brisk spruce]

I imagine it's getting announced soon. they're all partying in #🐴│community-events

[fiery sphinx]

Yeah, I'm imagining this is why we're all watching The Game Awards...

[brisk spruce]

we had talked about it when the page was still up, it was just hard to tell if it was a placeholder date or not because December is so frequently used for those

[thin panther]

My Bitdefender antivirus got triggered today

[gritty socket]

They are going to be crunching hard until release, I imagine

[warm python]

NO

[kind gazelle]

hello! you may consult our members in https://discord.com/channels/809856101326913567/1135680775698792488 for this error. you may also check the pinned message for a workaround on the issue.

[thick sundial]

NO PALIA SHOULD NOT BE ON THE GAME AWARDS NO. NO.

[celest maple]

lmao

[umbral marsh]

Bahahahaha it is the switch release

[brisk spruce]

called it

[warm python]

NONONO IT'S NOT READY

[halcyon pebble]

Let’s gooo palia!!!

[celest maple]

no way LOL OLOLOLOOL it's not ready, unless they do some crazy bug fixing tomorrow

[misty tiger]

Let's gooooo finnaly I'm gonna play on my bed haha

[thick sundial]

DO NOT DOWNLOAD THIS ON THE SWITCH PEOPLE PLS DO NOT. It’s not ready please.

[storm lintel]

unexpected palia mention

[thin panther]

Ok, thank you. I'll check it out

[celest maple]

it wasn't unexpected, they created a whole event
https://discord.gg/playpalia?event=1182457698516750516

[umbral marsh]

The devs probably: ALL NIGHTERS HERE WE COME

[warm sandal]

i just saw this and was like HUH

[hollow bramble]

here b4 the drama

[worthy hollow]

WOOOOOOOOO SWITCH TIME BAYBEEEEE

[gritty socket]

It's probably still not the end of beta though, I'd imagine

[warm python]

As someone who loves this game and wants it to succeed, this is not the news I wanted to see

[thick sundial]

It’s gonna be a mess. It’s gonna be worse than Disney Dreamlight was at Switch launch.

[umbral marsh]

Im cautiously happy. I do want this on the switch so I can play in bed, but …is the game really ready for a console release?😭

[fluid drum]

Does palia have controller support? I'm on an Oculus Quest2 and use a Xbox Series X controller.

[scarlet hazel]

same. it is NOT ready for the switch in anyway shape or form. the amount of backlash and even HARSHER dogpiling is going to be horrible. nintnendo fans are people you do not wanna mess with. not to mention the potential media coverage that will possibly ramp up

[hollow bramble]

well i haven't played the game recently so maybe i dont love it but i want to play it when it DOESNT have a ton of bugs and has more content

[worthy hollow]

how bout i do, anywaaaay

[celest maple]

nah they're hoping the new players fund the game, at least disney dreamlight valley has disney adults to keep it funded. Palia does not have that

[warm sandal]

i sort of wanna download it, just to see how it plays

[thick sundial]

I’m really curious

[fluid drum]

Alright, so Palia doesn't support controller yet

[indigo dust]

THE TRAILER WAS SO CUTE

[honest scarab]

Ninetendo has updated their Switch page

[fluid geyser]

GIMME

[halcyon pebble]

The devs are always non stop working on palia and haven’t stopped, surely they wouldn’t just release it for the switch and not be able to fix it, I’m really keen to play it in bed finally!

[warm python]

A ton of people can't even PLAY the game right now and it's coming out in a few days on switch????

[gritty socket]

We haven't seen how things are going to run with the new patch yet, so

[warm sandal]

well patch tomorrow....hopefully thatll fix things, right?

[honest scarab]

maybe we'll get a miracle patch tomorrow

[celest maple]

i don't think they have the money to pay ot 🤣

[thick sundial]

I can’t believe you think the Switch release won’t be a disaster after the 13 hour patch for a Christmas event 2 days ago.

[hollow bramble]

yall are so cute

[warm python]

Tomorrow's patch will literally need to me a miracle. Nothing short of a miracle.

[wooden anvil]

So is the game any good? Last I heard it had a lot of work needed

[idle zealot]

uhhh this isnt good haha

[warm sandal]

i will need the plush.....

[lusty light]

Free palcat!… plushies

[slender meteor]

Just came here for the same reason.

[scarlet hazel]

i dont know if the patch tomorrow will be good even honestly. we'll have to wait and see but... sigh.

also i bet the people downloading a free game will be HEAVILY dissappointed in whats available for F2P fashion wise if some manage to get to "end game" really quickly

[thin panther]

https://tenor.com/view/shocked-surprised-gasp-what-cat-shock-gif-635629308990545194

[celest maple]

it's okay i want this

[worthy hollow]

so excited honestly, i thought i was gonna get disappointing news like when gameloft announced DDLV wasn't gonna be f2p anymore

[jolly idol]

Y’all a lot of people saw that. Game is going to break even harder

[idle zealot]

check the singularity 6 linkedin page gives some insight into the mess

[scarlet hazel]

the game is going to break on switch release day

[lusty light]

Pink glider yay , the bucket its amazing i love it

[celest maple]

lololololol

[umbral marsh]

I mean, kinda understandable. Usually games like this have at least SOME unlockable fashion. But then again the game ain’t finished yet so maybe we’ll get something 😭 atleast I hope so…. There should be at least unlockable fashion for the professions.😓

[soft burrow]

so is it possible to log in on switch with our PC account to get the froggy bucket? or am i in no froggy zone forever

[worthy hollow]

f w o g g y

[honest scarab]

looking forward to the freebies

[hot charm]

Are we expecting there to be trading/Auction house coming?

[outer atlas]

yes you can use your account on the switch 😄

[celest maple]

the freebies are cute tbh

[scarlet hazel]

yeah. theyre ridiculously stubborn on not giving f2p any outfits except the basic stuff. but i bet if some of the f2p nintendo crowd yells they may finally stop being stubborn and make some stuff

[thick sundial]

Guys are those free cosmetics?!?! Dang. That’s tea.

[lusty light]

That’s slay

[idle zealot]

expect more cash shop outfits before trading

[crude star]

the mess?

[honest scarab]

but it's like the free cosmetics we got through referrels

[idle zealot]

management issues

[surreal ermine]

omg im gonna download on switch just to get the freebies they are TOO cute

[warm sandal]

now to wait until the 14th to see what happens :3

[crude star]

not 100% sure what you mean, i'm not partictularly smart w/ how to read that website

[celest maple]

let's stay playful together

[gritty socket]

Honestly, Froggy Bucket is a good gift

[old dirge]

need the froggy bucket (just gotta figure out the account linking, probably at launch. oh and update the switch)

[idle zealot]

the focus for management is on reactive updating which puts a strain on the engineering team

[umbral marsh]

They are! I love anything mushroom when it comes to customization 😭 and the froggy hat is adorbs

[idle zealot]

i.e. more bugs less fixes

[crude star]

idk where you see that stuff, cuz i just found some stuff talking about the soundtrack and all that? but i admittedly don't know how to get that info

[thick sundial]

Is the game gonna be crossplay or is that too much to hope for? I am not downloading on the switch unless I get free drip

[lusty light]

Its mushrooms cuz nintendo has mario as mascot 🍄

[dense ermine]

Glad I got my chapaa plushie. I do not see this ending well.

[quiet maple]

I now need to decide if I do Pokemon or Palia on the 14...

[kind gazelle]

Yep #💬│palia-general message

[thick sundial]

Hug it when this all goes downhill

[celest maple]

screams cottage core. I love it, at least i'm free 2 play so i'm able to enjoy this outfit to the fullest

[atomic jungle]

For the switch, can u like log out on pc, get ur switch and continue. Or will I need a new character

[lusty light]

Nai’o get ready, daddy its coming back (for 1 day)

[misty tiger]

The green sweater 😍

[crude star]

honestly the servers are gonna be cracking under the pressure i'd bet, you may not actually get a shot at doing palia if they go down lol choice may get made for you. happens plenty on big patches in mmos, after all

[brisk spruce]

I'll rep NS hype if the patch tomorrow goes better than I currently expect. I'm still nervous until then

[worthy hollow]

Hodari my beloved I'm coming to see you next week

[umbral marsh]

I love cottagecore so this is right up my alley

[celest maple]

Is Palia cross-play and cross-progression?
To date, Palia is cross-play and cross-progression between Palia on PC and Nintendo Switch. This means that players can log-in and play on their same account on both PC and Nintendo Switch (but not at the same time). Players can also join servers and play with others on either platform.

from this page https://palia.com/news/ns-launch-reveal

[atomic jungle]

Ty ty

[ashen lantern]

Palia Switch graphism leak

[umbral marsh]

Y’all think it would be possible to get my friends that don’t own a switch to get the outfits?🤔

[celest maple]

just make a nintendo account

maybe it'll work?
https://palia.com/news/nintendo-switch-rewards

[ocean stone]

Alejandro! I've missed you

[umbral marsh]

Idk why, but why does this sound so complicated bahaha😭

[lusty light]

Aww you are so nice i have missed everyone, there is so much new people now in the channel

[gritty socket]

And the little froggy bucket... hat... hey wait a minute

[wispy oak]

Im just reaching out again for help from the community. We are down to only needing 2 more Shepp letters from Nai'o and Hassian. We have found that every letter is different in slight ways and to think no one would have seen the effort that was put into it if not shared. It is really the little things that make this game great. I look forward to when the game is more confident in itself and stable for it to grow to what we all know it is capable of. If you are wanting to read the letters though you can find them here https://discord.com/channels/809856101326913567/1182086951172579489 Again thanks for the help

[wispy oak]

What if we play PC but still link with Switch. Can we still get these?

[violet egret]

Palia on Switch? That takes courage. Meanwhile we can't even set the graphics and play.

[outer atlas]

It says login... so I believe you have to login on the switch so if you dont have a switch you can't get them
FOMO unfortunately

[old dirge]

the post lays out how to get each reward (froggy bucket is both pc and switch if you log in before march 14th) https://palia.com/news/nintendo-switch-rewards

[outer atlas]

Palia should of won the ongoing award
With all these ongoing bugs

[wispy oak]

I have a switch so it wouldnt be to hard to link account it is the logging in thing that would be an issue. I have no space on switch LOL

[hexed lintel]

can I use my ||Switch Emulator|| for that?

[old dirge]

for the other rewards

Important: To receive this reward, you have to link your account at the first prompt. Once you skip through these steps and decide not to link before playing Palia, you cannot link your account again and will miss out on the rewards.

Don’t wait! The Leapfroggy outfit is a limited time promo and will only be available until January 14, 2024 11:59pm PT - so make sure to grab it before it's gone! But don’t worry - you can still get the Mushroom Glider if you missed the Leapfroggy outfit.

[brisk spruce]

honestly I can live without the other stuff on my second account. the froggy bucket though, that would have been devastating to live without for one second longer than necessary
thanks for pointing it out

[celest maple]

Can I get these specific items in different ways?

They might be available in the future but there are currently no plans for now.

[violet egret]

crossplay yeah. Soon the cakeparty tags are gonna be [NA] [EU] and [NS] LOL LOL LOL

[wispy oak]

OMG agree I need that froggy bucket

[scarlet hazel]

i hope this is them getting comfy making f2p outfits that actually look good

[sudden bay]

I actually think the f2p are better than the paid ones

[violet egret]

They are!

[south plaza]

are they really giving us the froggy bucket???

[mighty locust]

"Twitch Drops: In the two weeks following Palia’s launch on Nintendo Switch, Palians will also have the opportunity to collect up to five unique purple Twitch Drop in-game items, such as a Nox the Palcat Plush, Palcat Party Small Rug, Palcat Party Large Rug, Palcat Party Sunglasses, and Palcat Party Wallpaper."
Gonna set my alarm so i dont miss these drops!

[soft burrow]

What is a twitch drop?

[idle brook]

my question exactly

[glacial drift]

You link your twitch account to your Palia account and watch people play Palia. At so many watched minutes you unlock prizes (drops)

[scarlet hazel]

only for those that have a switch account it seems

[honest scarab]

Yes I agree. I was replying to someone who thought it was interesting we were getting more f2p cosmetics since we were told we wouldn't be. I was only pointing out the referrels gifts would also be considered f2p and so these Switch gifts were not a break from the previous stance.

[south plaza]

signs up for Switch account

[soft burrow]

Where did you find the date/time for this? I wouldn't mind trying that out for some cute items

[scarlet hazel]

i honestly might do the same and hope i can do it from pc. ill cheese the system if needed

[mighty locust]

No details posted yet but most likely different Palia streamers will have drops enabled. Usually you watch for a certain amount of time (say 30min-1hr) and item is linked to Twitch account which you then link to game account
https://www.twitch.tv/directory/category/palia

[celest maple]

Nice thank you for the explanation!

[lusty light]

Is palia down?

[glacial drift]

When the event goes live you can normally find streams that will have ‘drops on’ in their title while playing the desired game. You don’t have to actively watch, you can just have it on in another tab if you want, even muted.

[old dirge]

👀 ooo i wonder how (palia is downloading on my switch rn)

[soft burrow]

Thank you, Aurorus and Faewolf for answering my question. ❤️

[mighty locust]

This - i usually have Twicth vids muted in another tab for whatever game drops im going for 😅

[old dirge]

first time following a category on twitch (i only watch 1 streamer really)

[soft burrow]

I don't really watch streamers haha. I prefer to just have random youtube videos in the background

[glacial drift]

They have partnered streamers so finding a stream shouldn’t be hard come the day of the release

[lusty light]

I cant login ahhhh

[honest scarab]

I just got in now

[celest maple]

you may have to reinstall, i had to earlier

[brisk spruce]

not for the froggy bucket, celosia luna just pasted the quote from the page above but here it is again. for the froggy bucket specifically not the other stuff

This reward is available to both PC and Nintendo Switch players.

[mighty locust]

Yeah I'm sure they'll promote their content creators

[lusty light]

I just updated the game

[umbral marsh]

Im a Bit scared of the release day lol. 5832 Palians before you. Server connection lost. 😭😂

[glacial drift]

Ha, I just realized the groggy bucket is switch colors

[soft burrow]

that reminds me of the times i've been in ff14 and it had a whole server crash where it launched me into a thousands long queue haha

[lusty light]

Ohh i was writing the wrong password

[mighty locust]

yeah i might wait until the next day to start playing on my switch lol

[south plaza]

So, since I play Palia everyday I will def get it?

Yay!

[umbral marsh]

Imma download it tmr. It’s 5am so I should sleep good night y’all

[gritty socket]

I just hope we get the Froggy Bucket in green, too

[glacial drift]

Rainbow of froggy buckets, just like the chappa pillows

[worn snow]

didnt they say they weren't gonna do fomo sales tactics? or kinda imply it

[ocean stone]

I guess if hte game is free to play it's not a sales tactic

[brisk spruce]

yeah I really want a green one lol

[scarlet hazel]

guess they went back on that lol

[mighty locust]

"Freshly Painted Froggy Bucket Log-in Reward: Log-in and play Palia starting on launch day to claim this time-limited crimson variant of the fan-favorite Froggy Bucket before the reward window croaks in March."
As long as you play anytime in those 3 months (Dec 14-Mar. 14) we should get the bucket

[wooden iris]

WIth the cost of ingame cosmetics, cost of a switch isn't that bad right? right?

[glacial drift]

It’s not really sales when everything is free from their stand point I guess.

[gritty socket]

I mean, pretty sure they mentioned these items may (and probably will) be obtainable in the future in the fine print

[worn snow]

before anyone says "that's not what they said that everything would be available all the time" they VERY heavily implied in their monetization blog that things like this wouldnt happen

[scarlet hazel]

only the froggy bucket for free. the outfit and glider will cost money i bet and thats the opposite of getting it for free. either they put something out for free or make everything paid. they need to pick a lane to stick in

[brisk spruce]

I hope they reconsider what to do with these exclusives after the time window is over... even if they just add them to the referral system and tack it on past the original 5 👀 something, anything.

@gritty socket

They might be available in the future but there are currently no plans for now.
that's the same thing they said about free pets, which sounds more like the opposite to me (most likely wont, but might reconsider in the future)

[lusty light]

I cant find my Nai’o letter ahhh

[worn snow]

they said they wouldnt have a rotating store like this though, and that's kind of the definition of rotating stock at least, even if it's technically not a "paid item"

[sinful spruce]

This is about their store, not items they choose to give away for free.
So they won't sell stuff like limited time battle passes with costumes you can only get if you buy it within that window or else, etc.

[mighty locust]

I mean most liiiiikely they'll come back? or maybe in different form like future Twitch drops or other type of giveaway prize. But its one of those "exclusive for now" things

[ocean stone]

I mean like the "Referral reward" of the fruit basket is acquirable in game, and I belive some of hte maji market items are showing up with the wintry chapaa nest things. So things may come around in a different way later

[worn snow]

but if you want the froggy outfit and dont have a switch you would have to buy a switch.

it's still a scummy deal with nintendo imo, and a loophole that doesnt feel like it respects my trust very much.

[mighty locust]

yeah i dont see them never reusing the items for future promo

[sinful spruce]

You don't have to buy a Switch for it but if someone chooses to do that then okay? Again, the quote you shared was referring to items sold in their shop for real money - not items they choose to give away for free for whatever reason.

[ocean stone]

Palia is now on steeeam for wishlisting

[worn snow]

again: loophole. ever heard the phrase spirit of the law not the letter?

[indigo sluice]

is the game going to have cross progression?

[celest maple]

Yes

[scarlet hazel]

yeah you do have to buy a switch cause you cant access the shop without one. and not everyone knows how to emulate a switch or other things. with how theyve kept all the cosmetics locked behind a paywall, i bet theyll do the same to this frog outfit cause of how theyve treated cosmetics so far

[sharp wasp]

It's really coming to switch huh...

[wooden iris]

AND SOON STEAM
https://store.steampowered.com/app/2707930/Palia/

[ocean stone]

Meanwhile people are complaining that the nintendo switch has been out for 6 years and others are complaining that they now feel compelled to buy a switch going to bedddd now gn

[worn snow]

right, which again is rotating the items in the store

[scarlet hazel]

yeah. i do not trust the game to keep any supposed f2p stuff free entirely. theyve ruined my trust so far and they have to show effor to get it back

[worn snow]

i'm not saying that i'm saying it's still a monetized item bcos if you dont have a switch you have to buy a switch to get the outfit. i own a switch personally and will not be installing palia

[sinful spruce]

Yes, I know what a loop hole is, but you edited your post and I responded to the version that didn't include the loophole comment.

Anyway, I get what you're trying to say and I get how not being able to get something you want can suck and all, but I don't see this as some scummy deal they made with Nintendo so people buy more Switches....I feel that's reaching, honestly.

[worn snow]

they said they wouldnt do fomo tactics like this and they are doing fomo tactics like this.

if you wanna know where this is from: https://palia.com/news/palia-business-model

[sinful spruce]

Again, this is about their MONETIZED shop...not free items they give away to whomever such as beta rewards, promo things they want to do to give out to people, etc.

[worn snow]

this is about monetization as a whole, which includes partnerships w people like nintendo.

the blogpost is titled "palia's business model," so it includes the whole thinf

[sinful spruce]

So are there items in the store that you can only buy with real money and if you own a Nintendo?

I've read it several times already.

[scarlet hazel]

at the end of the day, FOMO sucks. and right now, yes the items are only available if you have a switch aside from the froggy bucket. so technically it IS a locked thing and all

[sinful spruce]

I agree completely. Hopefully maybe in the future there will be new or other ways to get these items. We can only hope for now though.

[worn snow]

what? no, but if they're partnered with nintendo to sell more switches that would be included in their business model bcos they're both making money off of them.

[hexed lintel]

[lusty light]

maybe they put the outfit in the store, but nintendo user get it for free :v

[scarlet hazel]

i highly doubt it honestly

[celest maple]

Don't worry team give me your Palia password and make a Nintendo account I'll get you the outfits

[grand reef]

i wont buy a switch for a crappy lookin frog outfit

[lusty light]

but its a crappy mushroom outfit

[sinful spruce]

I only feel that may be an option based on how they handled the items we could earn in events like Maji Market, for example. We could only get them there when it was around and now they're gone but they do plan on bringing them back somehow, so I won't let go of that hope or possibility just yet since this was just announced and only time will tell. Not that I am holding my breath or anything but I'm not closing the door on the thought either, if that makes sense?

[glacial drift]

I expect that if we see Palia come to any other console their will be another limited time window to earn the mushroom outfit via linking your account

[scarlet hazel]

yeah i get that. i just dont have hope with how theyve treated all new cosmetics so far. unless they outright say and show they will make more f2p clothing options, im going to assume that they make any promotional thing or else, paid in the future once it goes away

[hardy tree]

More than likely especially since it looks like it’ll be coming to steam within 2024 at some point. Unless they do separate rewards for every console which I also wouldn’t be surprised about

[sinful spruce]

Now THAT would be a breach of their promise.
They stated anything earnable one way will not be sold and vice versa. Meaning anything you can buy in the game with game currency cannot be bought with real money and anything sold for real money cannot be bought with in game money.

[grand reef]

i dont care about these switch rewards, i need my fishing and accomplishments fixed. after switch launch the devs have no other excuse as to whats taking them so long to get these fixed

[glacial drift]

Sure they have an excuse, they literally don’t know how to fix what is broken.

[worn snow]

this is... another thing. i'm worried switch will be a glitchg mess

[lusty light]

you dont have to worry, after the glitching mess of pokemon, palia surely will be also a glitching mess

[sharp wasp]

I hope the launch goes well for them. Maybe a christmas miracle will happen and next patch fixes everything /jk

[glacial drift]

Switch ports don’t have a stellar track record given the systems power so… that really won’t be anything new.

[grand reef]

if this 175 patch goes well, maybe there is hope, maybe fix like 10 bugs and add 3 more that will be a win for me

[glacial drift]

I honestly feel like 1.74 was a mistake to split in half and it caused issue by cutting content for a later update because they ran out of time. So I do hope adding the rest really will fix things.

[worn snow]

i just feel like an mmo w microtransactions that isn't already an established brand ... like it might not go quite as well for them ???? 😭 like pokemon had outrage but also ppl Bought The Game and pokemon stans will stan

an mmo w microtransactions requires people liking the game for long enough to buy stuff .. nd with achievement being bugged among other things it kinda cuts that time short

[gloomy sun]

Anyone think the obstacle course will be easier on Switch? I feel like I would be more successful w those controls that my pc lol (but also maybe bc that’s more like a Mario game or something haha)

[old dirge]

yeah it felt like references broke because bits were missing

[outer dawn]

Anyone has issues with fishing?

[gloomy sun]

Yeah it’s broken 😭 hopefully tomorrow will be fixed

[mighty locust]

Cosmetic Microtransactions is their whole business model - its why you dont pay $60 for the game like you do Pokemon. You never have to pay to enjoy the game but cute outfits are gonna cost ya

[outer dawn]

I like the game~ so i wont mind paying for cosmetic~

[glacial drift]

Have you tried changing your camera sensitivity? That worked for me.

[obtuse lodge]

I can't open the game or reinstall

[mighty locust]

same - i love my fairy wings and druid outfit ^^

[outer dawn]

Okay ill check on it

[scarlet hazel]

#💻│tech-help should be able to help find out whats wrong

[gritty socket]

Honestly, I really wish we had a fishing outfit to go with that Froggy hat... Though, it should go great already with Lilypad Leaper from the Plushie Pals set

[sinful spruce]

Awhhh! Yeah! That would be cute

[outer atlas]

it says "now" but when does it actually start i only want the froggy bucket lol

[brisk spruce]

I think the 14th, it says now in that screenshot but above that on the page it says 14th. I think the "now" was an accident

[ocean stone]

Are you here to see the froggy bucket?

[mighty locust]

blog person too excited too lol

[outer atlas]

okies yeah i thought that too.. guess ill try on the 15th 😄

[brisk spruce]

oh right yeah, 15th for you

[gritty socket]

I just wish we had more editing space on the home plot... want to put that Froggy Bucket right next to the pond

[outer atlas]

cant wait for all the steam reviews

[gritty socket]

Honestly, steam reviews are a cesspit regardless, or at least Steam Discussions tend to be

[celest maple]

My husband and I were just talking about that lol 😆 they can't hide those reviews 😭

They're ambitious I'll give them that!

[ocean stone]

I love when someone has 6000 hours in game on steam and they review the game like sucks waste of time don't play

I meant to type 600 hours but my thumbs couldn't do the math

[bold yarrow]

I wonder if the switch will be cross platform with the pc players or no

[celest maple]

Yes, it's cross platform and cross progression

[spark pawn]

Also feel that the twitch drops are maybe a bit of a bad idea.. half the stream will be disconnects and dealing with bugs. I just don’t know if that’s what they want to show off right now

[outer atlas]

Me with 5k+ hours on OW and ark 😂

[ocean stone]

But do you leave neg reviews for them

[rapid nest]

the funny thing here is the sentiment will be the same for 6000 hours anyway

[hexed lintel]

If the person with 6k hours is saying that it is a waste of time, I will probably believe in their word

[gritty socket]

Honestly, just having a date of "2024" gives them much more time to polish before release than "Holidays 2023" did

I'm just interested to se how Beta's going to work out with Switch in the picture, but we shall see

[outer atlas]

What's the drops? And when... just want to know if it's worth putting on a stream to get the drops😂

[ocean stone]

streams game to my smart TV does this count

[gritty socket]

Also... will we see Palia on other consoles? Because if I'm honest... I'd play it on PS5

[hexed lintel]

Idk, but probably yes

[rapid nest]

Honestly props to the players who want the full Palia experience on Switch, I’m mainly using it to afk farm/garden when I don’t have PC access

[outer atlas]

Isn't that what we are suppose to do

[old dirge]

Okay palia is downloaded on my switch, now it's gotta just wait there for a week

[spark pawn]

This is all I’ve seen but I think they are referring to this plush:

#💬│palia-discussions message

"Twitch Drops: In the two weeks following Palia’s launch on Nintendo Switch, Palians will also have the opportunity to collect up to five unique purple Twitch Drop in-game items, such as a Nox the Palcat Plush, Palcat Party Small Rug, Palcat Party Large Rug, Palcat Party Sunglasses, and Palcat Party Wallpaper."

[warm python]

[reef venture]

Is the Switch preorder only for US accounts? Can’t seem to download it in Germany

[outer atlas]

Must be... in Australia we can't either
Then again we can't even get it on epic games lol

[reef venture]

Okay, too bad :/

[hoary coyote]

Same! The game disappeared from my computer, it won't reinstall, and now I can't even download from the website.

[sinful spruce]

I'm not sure if this is the same case as other Switch games I play but sometimes some areas are able to have access to things in shop or whatever before the rest of the world, so maybe that's what's going on? This happens with Splatoon stuff for me where Japan gets first then NA, then SEA, etc.
Maybe try checking it again in 24 hours and see if it's still unavailable for you.

[worn snow]

thats exactly what i meant

[reef venture]

Yeah, I’ll try that, thanks 🙂

[sinful spruce]

No problem! I mean, it's a shot in the dark so idk if it's the same type of situation I'm familiar with seeing/hearing about in other switch games but thought I'd mention it just in case it may help. :)

[reef venture]

Checked the Japanese store but there isn’t even a store page… likely that the US store is the first

[warm python]

I think. i will come back tomorrow. lol. as someone who adores this game and wants it to succeed, i'm really sad right now

[sinful spruce]

Yeah that's what I was going to guess. I'm used to it being Japan first bc the game I see it happen with is Splatoon and that's where it's based from, so maybe that's the case here where it's US first and everyone else over time

[reef venture]

Let’s hope S6 does have plans to enable preordering worldwide then 🙂

[sly mortar]

Hassian made me dinner 🥺 I'm

[sinful spruce]

Yes! Fingers crossed 🤞

And, if not, then hopefully they'll get it sorted before the 14th

[warm python]

Will I be able to log on before the switch release..?

[worn snow]

like, on the computer? who knows.

[warm python]

just. please. someone tell me a miracle happens. I want it to

[worn snow]

god knows 🧎‍♀️

[trail cloud]

Patch 0.175 will solve all the problems the game has

And surely deploying on a Friday won't ruin the weekend of the devs

[sharp wasp]

Gonna have a 72 hour shift...

[warm python]

Again, as someone who (despite, yes, being a critical person here) desperately wants this game to suceeed, this is their last big chance to bring in a new audience. The game has to be working right. Did the trailer say it was beta and not ready for release? or?

[outer atlas]

Deploy it on a weekend so they don't have to worry about it for 2 days🥲

[warm python]

I was a bit too busy rambling to my friend about the game to see if they were very clear in the trailer that it's an unfinished beta game. I assume they did, right???

[outer atlas]

It doesnt say beta anywhere so I mean... full release... can't use beta as an excuse anymore

[worn snow]

yeah again i said this before, like people are bringing up the fact that a lot of switch games are buggy, and like sure it's true but this isnt pokemon or mario or persona or whatever that already has a big fanbase and can survive a buggy switch launch, s6 already seems to be scrambling this has to go well for them

[warm python]

....it didn't say beta? it didn't say the game wasn't a full release?

because if so, I'm done with the beta excuse from people, I really am.

[outer atlas]

Releasing it on switch yet I can't press esc without it freezing 😂😭

[trail cloud]

Ah you see, there is no ESC key on the switch so that doesn't matter

[gritty socket]

I mean, that's not going to be fixed without a client update, so see if it's still an issue next patch

[outer atlas]

I just want the froggy bucket🥲

[warm python]

I just rewatched the trailer. There is no mention of a beta. There is no information about the game not being pre-release.

[gritty socket]

Meee toooo.

[spark pawn]

I’m really going to have to buy more popcorn for the switch release. I ran out during last patch chaos

[worn snow]

i think zooming out would be helpful, it's more the principal of the thing. we're a week away from a switch release (not a beta release!) and we're in shambles

[warm python]

As far as they've advertised, the game is now in a format they consider released.

[outer atlas]

4 months and the achievement bug is slightly fixed 🥲 gosh bless them ex riot and blizzard devs❤️

[warm python]

I never want to hear the beta explanation for a single thing again lol

[zealous pike]

i'm wondering if the update is supposed to stabilize the stuff that went chaotic XD

[outer atlas]

Guys we have it all wrong
Its beta on PC and not beta on the switch

[gritty socket]

More than likely

[wispy oak]

So I am curious this is spoilers so dont look if you not done the candle quest. But did Hodari say this to everyone?

[zealous pike]

aw yeah, all the romancers

[warm python]

Either it's beta on both or beta on none. (I know you're joking tho aylee <3)

[thick sundial]

Laughing

[half lance]

I'm currently thinking about whether there's really more bonus content coming or whether it's just what's announced. when I think about how little space you have as a player, only 10,000 and you have no community features. A questionable option especially for the Switch release.

[zealous pike]

this is a community feature >.>
hello palia community XD

[worn snow]

literally never ever. we have monetization and an ad that doesn't state beta, if i hear another person say "it's in beta bugs are to be expected" i'm telling them to count their days until switch is released, they wont be able to say it anymore

[waxen basin]

Is there a magic system in the game yet?

[outer atlas]

So since its coming to switch and steam... can we get some more linked roles 👀

[zealous pike]

i think the holiday shop is where some of the new content is going >.> and the new outfits for real money

[thick sundial]

No. Epic Games only.

[outer atlas]

Lowkey forget about epic games since it isn't available in my country

[warm python]

Next time I hear "beta tho" I'm liking them to the TGA trailer and that'll be that lol

[thick sundial]

This is gonna be an epic disaster. I’m getting my popcorn READY for tomorrow’s patch. Me and @gritty socket are gonna go head to head. Final battle.

[warm python]

🎵 this is the ultimate showdown, of ultimate destiny 🎵

[modest merlin]

Palia being a hot mess

S6: "We're coming to the Switch!"

[thick sundial]

Is it on YT? If so… maybe the description?

[turbid lion]

I have over 2,000 hours in the old game RIFT, and I 100% do not recommend anyone play it, or waste their time on it, OR give them money. Because the original owner, Trion sold it off to a firm called Gamigo which is owned by a real estate company in Germany and has done it's level best to be negligent landlords for the game. They have not updated or patched the game once in over four years, and it's getting worse and worse, with events failing, seasonal missions not happening anymore, rampant PvP hacking, etc. No devs, no updates, no patches, etc. Real Abandon All Hope kinda vibes. So yeah, I can see reviews like that happening.

[warm python]

I just rewatched the trailer itself, there is no mention of beta, or pre-release, or anything. maybe i'm going insane, let me watch it yet again

[serene barn]

Please S6 I beg of you do not let players be able to get junk from the rummage pile cause if I dont get all the Winterlight recipes I will cry, I will be very sad

[modest merlin]

For half a second, I thought this was going to be the navy seal copypasta

[warm python]

Watched it for a fourth time (and laughed because the main character shown is wearing my exact outfit with my exact new hairstyle as F2P of course, to make it even funnier to me). There is no beta, no prerelease, no anything. It's advertised as a release.

[thick sundial]

Dang FOMO for paid content AND also the quest content. The cracks showing

[thick sundial]

WE ARE FREE OF THE BETA ARGUMENT. WE WON. We were right the whole time.

[solid sonnet]

So i cant get The "New villager" to spawn, and I think its because i havent completed the inveatigstor quest yet... So i cant get The last Bell for My xmas tree

[olive shoal]

Is there a suggestion board somewhere?

[west marlin]

Rip

[sudden bay]

Beta or not it doesn't change the state of the game which right now is awful.

[worn snow]

i'm still surprised that they never rolled back

[proud sierra]

you dont need her for the 24 people, you should be fine xD

[warm python]

At least "beta" technically can't be used anymore. not that people aren't still gonna but

[thick sundial]

If you hit alt F4 then everything straightens out

[solid sonnet]

But I want to

[modest merlin]

I got the same furniture items from the pile today that I got yesterday

[limber dune]

how's the game friends? we all well adjusted and grateful?

[wispy oak]

last thing I remember was hearing Hekla behind me... and now I am here.... I think she killed me...

[warm python]

The game's being officially released, non-beta, on switch on the 14th, so I'm mostly curious right now!

[proud sierra]

i have no strong feelings as I have no switch xD But im enjoying the conversations lol

[limber dune]

i think i read that fairy farm or whatever was a glitchy mess so maybe people will feel at home with palia

[wooden iris]

Palia is actually the Matrix, she's freed you.

[warm python]

honestly I've been so busy with other games I haven't gotten a chance to try others of the genre recently LOL

@wooden iris Hekla was doing her best ok

[wooden iris]

I can only play 1 open ended grindy cozy life sim house building game at a time

[limber dune]

i see your cheery demeanor hasn't changed

[warm python]

honestly now that I can't even log in without getting frozen after 15 seconds, I'm taking a break from the genre I think until the next stardew patch comes out.

[thick sundial]

https://tenor.com/view/dancing-the-brummies-sunshine-sun-costume-shake-it-gif-18271667

[warm python]

game hasn't soooooo

[wooden iris]

Sorry to hear 😦 have a switch to try it out there?

[narrow eagle]

That's not true. It's gotten less playable.

[limber dune]

that's a bummer. the christmas stuff looks cute though

[warm python]

I do have a Switch, but after what's been going on with the PC version, I'd rather have my switch fully focus on games like Theatrhythm and stuff

[thick sundial]

I heard they fixed climbing.

[narrow eagle]

They did, now the game crashes before you can try. Can't have a climbing problem if you can't climb

[wooden iris]

I've noticed literally no difference lol. Least it didn't get worse!

[pearl kindle]

i think that just because a game has a lot of bugs, doesn't mean it won't be a moderate success. i played sims 4 for years and it still has many bugs begging to be fixed, and it was released in 2014. and cyberpunk 2077 started with a terrible release too things aren't always cut and dry, all we can do is watch and see. if palia fails, let it fail. we shouldn't be overly invested in it anyways

[warm python]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LKejD3z55rc (it did get a little better though after several tries in that area, I'll give it, but it's still rough for me)

[woven meteor]

any way to help the chances of finding rare fish?
example: trying to find unicorn fish
like are the bobber upgrades just cosmetic?

[sudden bay]

The game still has beta in the name so the switch might as well. You can't say for sure it's a full release.

[thick sundial]

I looked on their Nintendo page and no mention of EA, same with the YT description. This means that the game is full release in… 7 days…

[idle remnant]

I just saw the announcement for the Switch release... /facepalm

[mystic arch]

Won't they need full controller support for it to be on switch?

[warm python]

pray to the RNG gods

@sudden bay Can you bring up the trailer they just showed at TGA a few hours ago and show me where they say beta?

[woven meteor]

🥲 🙏

[limber dune]

i dont think full release means anything anymore guys. baldurs gate 3 was in EA for 3 years, released and act 2 and 3 were straight up broken for weeks. just swept all the awards

[sudden bay]

oh they don't say beta but that doesn't mean it won't say it in the game.

[narrow eagle]

Personally I'm looking forward to Palia: A Realm Reborn. Just try again

[thick sundial]

That’s what we’ve beeennnnn sayin

[warm python]

I wanna see a winged chapaa descending and just loudly in the background TO ALLL OF MY CHILDREEEEN IN WHOM LIGHT FLOWS ABUNDAAAANT

[thick sundial]

Their Nintendo page and YT video are all up

[wooden iris]

Palia but with DnD rules, spells, and dice rolls o.O

[warm python]

As a huge BG3 fan who was still big mad at a lot of big bugs on release and had the ending ruined for me because of it: it was still in a better release than Palia PC is right now, so unless Palia switch is a miracle and the PC version patches to be a match to it, I wouldn't compare it

[sudden bay]

Yes I know this but ....well it doesn't matter. Until S6 says it is a full release it's still in beta but honestly it doesn't even matter. They could release it and still have all these problems. It's a F2P game so they be less concerned about it being up to snuff. Not an excuse but a reason.

[pearl kindle]

bg3 is in a class of its own 💜

[limber dune]

i dunno, you paid good money for BG3. palia's still free

[warm python]

Palia still charges for MTX, it's not free. It has optional payments, it isn't free

[sudden bay]

Just silly to argue if it's released or in Beta. Doesn['t change anything.

[thick sundial]

I swear to god. If people start using F2P as an excuse for it having loads of issues now that the game is “full release” I’m gonna lose my mind.

[warm python]

and I am nooooot spending my birthday night arguing F2P and why it's not a charity so someone else can in my place lmao

[sudden bay]

But what do you care? You still have your opinion and you won't change theirs. Just wasted energy.

[limber dune]

that makes no sense but hey happy birthday

[narrow eagle]

It's actually because they developed this for the Switch from the beginning, we've just been playing the PC port. Those are always buggy

[thick sundial]

THE GAME IS LITERALLY FREE AND YOU EXPECT IT TO WORK? Newb.

[warm python]

ugh how dare you expect a game not to make you have to close it via task manager

[gritty socket]

Honestly, yeah. At this point S6 just needs to keep up the release cadence and try as hard as they can to get bugs fixed. I would rather they released in a bit better state, but they may not have had a choice in the matter

[thick sundial]

Fortnite doesn’t even let you climb or build a farm. How dare you complain!!

[warm python]

ok but wtf was up with that lego fortnite trailer tonight, it looked nothing like fortnite and actually a really cool game to play

[patent stone]

Hi im obsessed with FF and I’m gonna ramble off topic. Estinien and Hassian both loitering around MC trying to out-edgy each other while secretly caring. Tish sweeping up Alisae to go have tea together, and Alisae’s all flustered but she secretly likes it. Hodari and Sid being old buds and tinkering together in the workshop. Zeki trying to set up shop and make deals with the Namazu. Einar living on the deep sea fishing boat. ggggghhhhhh

[scarlet hazel]

BG3 deserves its price tag wholely. palia has MTX in the form of clothing with no other options to gain it. it might be free but with how limited it is and how f2p has no options to make or get said premium store clothing, it doesnt justify how expensive the actually good looking clothes cost

[sinful spruce]

Lol IKR??!

[narrow eagle]

It was what Fortnite was originally gonna be before the battle royale side took over everything afaik

[thick sundial]

The Lego Fortnite followed right away by Rocket League Fortnite and then the 10th Final Fantasy announcement in between 100,000 futuristic looking 3rd person space shooters

[sudden bay]

who is Allisae?

[worn snow]

a f2p game has to keep its players long enough for them to want to pay for something.

bg3 has ur money upfront, so it's more liable to sunk cost fallacy, right? like "i spent so much money on this game blah blah blah i can wait a little while while it's still buggy"

palia is the opposite. you pick it up put it down doesnt cost u anything but time

[limber dune]

idk if i pay $60 for a game i expect to be able to finish it. my standards are much lower for a f2p game

[patent stone]

Alphinaud’s sister!

[warm python]

akjhdajks oh my god all of that sounds amazing LMAO zeki and the namazu would especially make me crack up so much. NO OH MY GOD EVEN BETTER ZEKI AND TATARU

[sinful spruce]

Yeah, I was in the beta or early release and there was no battle royale. It was more so building and hoard battles with multi-player

Seeing the BR stuff everywhere online and none of the stuff I played had me thinking they changed it all or something when really the BR is just the f2p portion of the game

[sudden bay]

Totally agree

[worn snow]

my bf says it's like lego but minecraft and nothing like fortnite if that means anything to anyone

[warm python]

I honestly thought it was a lego minecraft game, then fortnite showed on the title card and we were all like ??????

[thick sundial]

See my standard is the same across the board but if I can 1) have a pet and/or 2) name the pet… then really the score goes up a lot in my books

[scarlet hazel]

my expectations for most f2p games is a bit low but palia is at the bottom of a trench with how theyve built the game so far. unless the patch later today is going to actually fix stuff and not break even more things, then /shrug

[spark pawn]

They are attempting to meet the deadline that execs set and it shows. It’s not ready I wish they’d listen to devs/community bc man I want the new players to play the quality game this used to be back in August. Not this buggy mess it’s going to just turn people off

[sudden bay]

Happy Birthday Relika

[warm python]

ty ty

[gritty socket]

Honestly, though, a lot of the big issues really seemed to happen with 0.1.7.4. Hopefully, we see them get their feet under them again with the patch tomorrow

[narrow eagle]

I don't think there's been a smooth update since launch tbh

[scarlet hazel]

the execs are just gonna keep forcing them to keep going to the deadline. unless they have the legal rights to the game, i say the palia team should just take the game, and try to fix it up a lot and release it on their own terms and pacing.

but only if we lived in such a world sadly...

[thick sundial]

Honestly when I played the game back in August I was super impressed and the game felt really clean. I did not experience intense bugs like I did after the first couple updates and the game felt much more polished.

[raw hedge]

Two parter question about the game:

1. Do I NEED to download this from Epic to play on PC?
2. Is this ever coming to Steam?

[worn snow]

there really hasnt... nd like u can chalk some of that to ppl being upset ab anything but a good portion of it is whackamole bugs

[warm python]

Even f2p games I have standards for, free doesn't automatically give an anything-goes pass for me when it comes to quality. Sure, okay they're not charging for it upfront, but they're still monetizing it, F2P with monetization is not different from a game that releases with an upfront cost without mtx

Same exact thing, just making money in a different way

[scarlet hazel]

1. no. you can download the launcher from the main site
2. yes in 2024 for some reason

[raw hedge]

Sweet, thanks

[polar elbow]

there is a difference between "theres a few bugs in beta, it happens" and using "it's beta!!" as a magic phrase to shut down any and all criticism, and the people who would like to offer honest criticism are honestly tired of having "it's beta!!" shoved in their face constantly

Hell, I've had "it's beta!!" thrown in my face for expressing my opinion that releasing on switch this early, before addressing the growing list of (sometimes game breaking) issues, is a really bad idea because first impressions matter when it comes to growing your playerbase on a new platform launch.

[raw hedge]

Can someone tell me the size of overall install in GB?

[limber dune]

im not gonna try to change your mind cause its your birthday. tbf it sounds like the game is a lot buggier than it used to be, which is a shame if true

[warm python]

BG3 comes out, charges $60 for payment. K. Palia comes out, free, but makes its money off of charging $20+ per outfit. No difference. They're both going for the same money in different ways.

@limber dune Is okay I'm not gonna say you're not allowed to argue with me cause i'm bday gal lol. But it is really bad right now. idk if you've tried logging in the last two days but it's.....real bad atm

[gritty socket]

Honestly, I invite you to give it a shot again after the patch tomorrow

[worn snow]

also like (ik yk this) the game isnt free for charity's sake they're not like 🥰🥰🥰 we want u guys to have it for free so we can all be together and have fun 🌈🌈☀️☀️ they did it bc they thought it would b more profitable

[thick sundial]

Im holding you to this.

[gritty socket]

Holding me to what, exactly? I'm already planning on playing after patch

[warm python]

I was really enjoying the new christmas quest! ...and then it prematurely, buggily completed, and the game froze and kicked me out (after crafting a few items that shouldn't have been in the game, though that didnt have to do with the crash), and I haven't been able to stay in the game more than 30 seconds since, alongside most others

[limber dune]

yea i stopped playing in like september so i have no idea

[warm python]

F2P is always F2P because they've decided MTX will make more money than upfront sales. Businesses are still businesses, not charities, and a lot of people keep forgetting that

[worn snow]

they had an 8 hour patch day the other day and people still couldnt get in to play. you can (still? maybe not after the hotfix) craft like debug things with 2 stones. people are crashing every 5 minutes.

[worn snow]

i think the sentiment of "it'll be better next patch just you wait and see!" is what you're being held to, maybe

[raw hedge]

How big is the game's storage after patches and whatnot? Also do we know when in 2024 it's coming out?

[pearl kindle]

i was under the impression it's a "we'll wait and see" sort of sentiment

[warm python]

I keep talking about this all the time and again as negative as I seem, I want the best for this game. I'm upset tonight because I think the switch release is a detriment to that success, and after all the talk I've had with people on the server, beta is now no longer an excuse for it all

[gritty socket]

IDK, they've always been wildly antagonistic to me, so, eh. I just hope it gets fixed. If not, I mean, I'll be disappointed, but I've played games that have crashed and burned before. Just hopeful Palia pulls it off

[abstract lark]

so uh we getting a rollback tomorrow then? or no news on that and we just get to keep zeki items? lol

[gritty socket]

I imagine we'll hear more on patch day

[warm python]

If Palia can somehow pull off a miracle with its patch tomorrow and the switch release on the 14th, I'll be one of the happiest people in this wholebutt discord, I swear unironically

[sinful spruce]

#📢│palia-status message

[scarlet hazel]

no idea. and idk. i dont rly check the storage when i play games

[abstract lark]

that answers absolutely nothing

[gritty socket]

Heck, let me tell y'all about my time with Paragon. Or Spellbreak. Or...

[warm python]

lord know I've been wanting another cozy game of this genre to be successful. I want this to go right.

[worn snow]

i also wanna say "a rollback seems like the only option" was very much a repeated sentiment in here on patch day, just if that helps paint a picture

[raw hedge]

Could you check now?

[sinful spruce]

Sorry for trying to help?

I didn't see any mention of rollbacks and they mentioned pushing forward earlier than normal as a way to fix most of the issues from the last patch.

[spark pawn]

Mel from s6 did say this about it when someone asked yesterday. I kinda feel like that means the items won’t be taken away? #💬│palia-general message

[soft burrow]

34.3 gb is what palia is sitting at for me rn on windows

[raw hedge]

Thank you very much 🙂

[gritty socket]

Honestly, as someone in that camp originally, I've softened a bit on the idea of a rollback

[abstract lark]

then say that don't just give me a link with no context that has no answers, I'm not uspet or anything just that message has no info

[warm python]

Anywho brb, FFXVI just had a DLC shadowdrop and that is going to eat me now

[sinful spruce]

I didn't mean to hit enter so fast....Discord got a new layout for mobile and I'm getting used to it...I meant to type what I replied to you with along with the link but accidentally sent

[limber dune]

i feel it. i think im just used to "live" game dev. its just fumble after fumble with a win here and there. a mobile game "released" recently and it hasn't been accessible to 90% of its players for 2 weeks

[gritty socket]

The Discord Mobile update is traaaash

[scarlet hazel]

i still have old discord thankfully

[worn snow]

i just dont feel like that's a good way for games to operate and should not be the norm, but i understand that it Is The Norm just i will still criticize a game for being that way even if it's how All games are lol

basically im an old grump at 20 years old nd they used to make games that worked back in my day smh my head

[abstract lark]

no probs, I'm mainly wondering if they will let us keep those items or not, or even if they can only wipe crafted ones (probably not), most likely just remove the recipes and leave damage done alone

[covert siren]

Leaving the things that people have crafted would be the best Christmas gift honestly

[limber dune]

well i hope the patch is sick tomorrow and not followed by 8 hours of downtime. good luck palia crew

[sinful spruce]

Yeah, I suppose we won't know the actual specifics until tomorrow but I did notice no mention of a rollback at least and I agree with your guess as well. That definitely seems more up their alley.

Like the Phoenix fireworks, for example. The recipe was buggy, they patched it but didn't take the fireworks we made with the cheaper recipes

[scarlet hazel]

who wants to bet that theyll sneak the rollback in and arent communicating it

[old dirge]

they're moving forward and it sounds to me like part of the problems were splitting things between the two patches, but only part

[sinful spruce]

They've never done that before so I don't feel it's something we should jump to assuming so quickly.

[old dirge]

that would mean removing winter lights and/or the new apac server config though and they're not doing that

[sinful spruce]

It's what they've done in the past. They let everyone keep the things they crafted with a broken recipe and just corrected the ingredients required to craft them from there on out instead.

So yeah I'm hopeful that's the same case tomorrow.

[warm python]

Okay I'm back for a few while this FFXVI DLC downloads-- Mentioned it before but my guess is that they delete the recipes but take the loss with the already crafted items and leave them in for people who already made them

[abstract lark]

it will be funny for people who made 50 coffee grinders to get a coffee grinder from the gacha when trying to get one of the new plushies

[gritty socket]

It's also possible some of this was intended to go live with the patch tomorrow anyways

[warm python]

aksdasjk the coffee grinder and the small chandelier light were the only proper gacha recipes I was able to unlock

[abstract lark]

my theory is there were some recipes, some unadded fully, some like the edging + lights that were meant to be discoverable but it seems that all items must have a recipe? just not enabled to the crafting table? and that got jumbled together

[brisk spruce]

I almost want the recipes to not get fixed just so I have longer to try and get the holiday rug recipes to make some extras 👀

[old dirge]

the recipe families seem misconfigured and some objects are missing elements, so i'd agree that some updates got split between the two patches

[gritty socket]

I mean, pretty sure the Holiday items are supposed to give you recipes?

[brisk spruce]

not those ones. the rugs are 1 stone ingredient recipes

[sinful spruce]

I sure do wish I could have the plush recipes since my RNG is garbage xD

I'll grind for impossible ingredients to make what I love all day, but having to rely purely on luck makes me sad sometimes xD

[covert siren]

That’s fine, it creates balance in the universe x) We get smth new and cute rn immediately, the amount that we need. But we’re gonna pay for it later when we get the duplicates

[old dirge]

garden variety and valley sunrise are supposed to be from piles and coins rather than being unlocked through crafting I'm pretty sure - plus some have the wrong sorts of materials set as their recipe and people got different numbers of recipes unlocked (I didn't get the oval table or wooden edging)

[abstract lark]

I just want more toilets man

[gritty socket]

Ranch House Style toilet, please. And no, not just the Makeshift Outhouse

[pearl kindle]

investigator toilets!

[abstract lark]

paltech (introduced this patch and next) is all about pipes and grungy cyberpunk, so I need a paltech toilet with one of those tanks at the top

[marble glen]

oop i feel that, all im getting from rummage piles are quests and no holiday stuff lol

[covert siren]

I wish we could open the door to that outhouse at least T_T

[gritty socket]

Aww, we can't? Honestly, that's a good idea for a feature request

[abstract lark]

only after social sitting, so you can sit on a cough with multiple people pls
another feature that would fit palia so well is different idle stances like in ffxiv, it would add so much character

[covert siren]

We can’t (unless I missed smth)

[celest maple]

Thank you thank you, just downloading Palia onto my switch as I type, great job guys. It’s a big file around 10gb, so glad I bought a large memory card. Anyone else playing on a switch on the 14th?

[gritty socket]

I'll probably be trying it, or at least linking my accounts for the swag. I honestly do hope it runs well; I've been wanting to play Palia with my partner since I was in Alpha, but we only have the one PC

[sinful spruce]

Iirc I seem to remember them mentioning making furniture intractable in the future like opening, closing as well as displaying things on shelves or cabinets that we can't currently place things on. My memory may be a little off but I do remember them mentioning something along those lines.

And idk if that will apply to the outhouse door either but that would be nice

[gritty socket]

They've done that to some degree! Still a bit of a work-in-progess though, I believe

[woeful plover]

Partner will be playing on her Switch.

[sinful spruce]

Nice! I've yet to truly dabble in furniture making yet, so I wouldn't have really noticed or seen it change in game, but I'm looking forward to it once I have time to put into it. Until then I've been passively crafting all the rooms, doors, porches, etc. that I may want so I have whatever I need for when my time to decorate and make a legit home comes :D

[gritty socket]

Oh, that reminds me, you now have a use for multiple harvest homes... You can use them to create separate buildings on the same plot now... so, say you wanted a dedicated workshop space

[sinful spruce]

YES!! I saw that and am so happy bc I already made an extra one. I wanna make an aquarium sub building for my fish hoarding issues xD

[gritty socket]

Ugh... I'm pretty sure almost all of my required Temple drops are from fishing in Bahari, at least after I catch a Stripeshell Snail.... Going to have to wait 'til after patch I guess

[warm python]

oh god I forgot how to play FFXVI

new DLC came out and I cant figure out how to start it LOL

[pallid ferry]

Wait… the Twitch Drops will only be for “two weeks following Switch release”???? They do realize that’s smack in Christmas travel time.

[abstract lark]

good thing you can just tune into any stream and leave it running, so hopefully you got a tablet or laptop with you

[soft burrow]

I'm still a little confused about the twitch streams. Is it obvious on twitch when a streamer is part of the drop?

[pallid ferry]

The streamer can enable drops, and there’s a message at the top of chat notifying you

Most streamers will also include some form of “drops enabled” in their title to lure in viewers.

[soft burrow]

So I should check the titles for sure then? I've never used twitch before lol

[pallid ferry]

Looking at the titles will be easiest, yes. You can also ask in chat when you open a stream.

[soft burrow]

Cool, thank you!!

[stoic frost]

I can't wait for the mythical second half of the game to be released with the switch launch

[abstract lark]

also you can click this link and it should show you from the items who has that drop enabled I believe https:// link.twitch.tv / MyDropsInventory

[coral coral]

Hoping for a stack of Zeki coins and increased plushie drop rates in that case

[abstract lark]

ahh I missed this message, thank you

[soft burrow]

thank you! i'm glad everyone has been kind about my lack of knowledge about twitch. i'm more of a youtube watcher lol

hmmm, the connecting my account to my game account thing is kind of mysterious.

[warm python]

since i've been mostly out tonight, what's this again about twitch drops lol

[abstract lark]

you just enter your email I believe to connect your palia account on twitch, you can't get the drops in game without telling them your account

[soft burrow]

its me needing serious help, relika lol

[coral coral]

They're dropping a couple Palcat items

[warm python]

https://store.steampowered.com/app/2707930/Palia/ well I guess it's coming there next year too

@soft burrow I mean don't we all

[soft burrow]

omg ok, so do i log in on the palia website or do i have to literally log into the game itself? i'm not seeing where to put my email. i'm sorry lmao

[gritty socket]

Heh, I just had the most wholesome interaction in game with a newer player asking where to sell fish... In the end I learned you can sell fish to Einar, and someone else learned you can sell anything to Zeki. This is why I play this game tbh

[soft burrow]

wait nevermind. you can apparently connect on the drop page itself?

ok i think i get it now. thank you everyone for putting up with me lmao

[warm python]

how does it work? like can streamers opt in to it if they play palia then or do they have to be accounts picked by S6?

[gritty socket]

I think it's opt-in? But don't quote me on that, I've only done drops from the watcher's side. You may have to be a Twitch Partner, IDK

[soft burrow]

The twitch page says that streamers can opt in or apply to do drops

[warm python]

I'm an affiliate, not a partner, but.. @soft burrow can you link me?

[soft burrow]

https://www.twitch.tv/drops/campaigns it also says to go to creator dashboard

[abstract lark]

waiting to fix the game so the reviews aren't bad lmao
@soft burrow the rewards aren't available yet, but when they are you will be able to connect your palia account to claim them, you don't have to connect until the item is ready to be claimed so no rush no stress

[soft burrow]

thanks this whole experience has been very enlightening for me lmao. i was getting really confused about when i was supposed to connect

[warm python]

hmmm don't see Palia under my list of open drop campaigns. a bunch of others but not Palia.

[abstract lark]

it'll be there when palia enables the drops

[soft burrow]

so would that mean relika would have to go to the creator dashboard to enable the drops once palia's devs have enabled it on their end?

[warm python]

Mostly I'm just wondering if I can stream it then to enable the drops for others or if I gotta be picked by S6 (which is obv not happening LMAO)

[gritty socket]

I just want to know what the drops will look like. I'm assuming they will be purple

[abstract lark]

you have to be part of the creator campaign, some guy was asking here earlier
now all I want is some prime gaming drops, even if lame

[warm python]

booooooooo LMAO well I sure as hell would never be picked for something like that 😂 it's been a hot minute since I've streamed a thing tho so regardless.....

[soft burrow]

that's kind of sad that you have to be super popular or whatever to be able to do it as a streamer. what if we don't have anybody that streams the game that is part of that program?

[warm python]

watch me glitch out of palia ten times before changing categories to Theatrhythm-- (i partially joke, I really really HOPE the switch release goes well lol)

[worn snow]

ik ive said it already but the whole fomo marketing thing w the streams n the downloading n stuff gives me the ick when they explicitly said it wasnt "a part of their business model." the only reason i care is bcos they said they wldnt do it otherwise i'd be like "oh yeah thats normal lol its an mmo thats how they make money"

[warm python]

yeah I kinda raised an eyebrow at that myself considering how they'd said that in the past

[soft burrow]

it doesn't help when you have confused people like me haha

[gritty socket]

I mean, those notes also mentioned that there could be the occasional exception, and I suppose the marketing stuff counts, kinda like stuff like the Founder's Windmill. Still need to find a place to display that.

[warm python]

Still not great imo. Palia shouldn't try to have that "We're the Other Kind of MMO" advertising when they're...not? idk

[worn snow]

they also said those would be explained when exceptions were made iirc

[soft burrow]

well i'm going to be headed out. i need to be up early to visit my grandparents tomorrow. thank you everyone who took the time to help me understand twitch and get ready for the drop campaign. take care!!

[warm python]

sleep well and have a good time tomorrow!!

[worn snow]

ok im wrong they said there wld b reasons but didnt say they would b made known to us, but still. breaking their own standard before official launch is questionable on its own

[warm python]

three limited time things within the span of the month when we've never had that before doesn't feel that great tbh

[abstract lark]

I think only the purple version will be from twitch and you can get other versions through other means
if it's just a color variation of something you can get in game I'm fine with that

[spark pawn]

And the foggy bucket one of the most requested items

[gritty socket]

Tbh, I want the classic green bucket more

[abstract lark]

well just the red one tho, green one will be from something else in game 1000%

[spark pawn]

OH rly thank goodness

[warm python]

I would hope so I mean I usually have twitch on my laptop to the side all the time to have noise cause of my tinnitus so I'm not personally worried about missing a drop but that bucket looks adorable and I dont want people to miss out on it

[gritty socket]

Froggy Bucket is the real marketable mascot of Palia

[warm python]

ngl I hope it's not an expensive/hard to make or get item because I will absolutely fill my yard with them. froggy buckets everywhere. house is still only one room but who cares, 🐸

[gritty socket]

I just added a kitchen/dining room yesterday

[warm python]

until they give me a capybara, I will spam frogs

@gritty socket once the game's stable I need to actually make money again lmf... I haven't gotten around to buying even a second room yet. done a lot of rando grinding but am still broke somehow lol

[gritty socket]

I suggest either mining for starstones, or hunting rare bugs with the aid of a buzzy jar. Nice thing is farming mining can also get you rare bugs

[warm python]

I did some starstone farming when they came out before it got nerfed, chilling out in one of the caves with palium, it was nice. Got some bugs for silk too which I need a ton of for furniture sets I still gotta make. Though obviously not as good now since the nerf, money-wise, with those particular nodes. I took a break again after the nerf/server stability mesiness

[gritty socket]

Honestly? Starstones are still a good source of money

[warm python]

Not as much sadly, I always get disheartened at nerfs especially in this game so it'll take me a wee bit to go back to it

the christmas quest completing prematurely and the devs p much confirming I'd never be able to get the others without reading them on wikis kinda really hurt my enthusiasm too that I'd gotten back

I guess I'll see what happens with tomorrow's update though, if it's chonky enough and I can play without the game freezing within five seconds as it's been doing for me, I'll dive back in

[coarse abyss]

Yes

[warm python]

f r o g e

[coarse abyss]

I'm at work so i'm slowly reading through all the announcements at the moment. I'm happy that we'll finally get a placeable froggy bucket

[warm python]

Mave, let us make a froggy army

idk how your house looks in game right now but, join me in the soon to be construction of an army of 🐸 🐸 🐸

[coarse abyss]

I'd describe it as "needs a lot of work" I have a few things on the exterior that i'm happy about, but the inside is practically empty at the moment. I'll get to it in a couple weeks when i'm off of work for the holidays

I'm kind of sad though that the frog outfit is a switch exclusive. Like i have nothing against exclusives, but it probably should've been something that's specifically Nintendo related and not something that everyone would really want to have

[echo stirrup]

Does anybody know if the switch version will be cross platform so that you play the same account on both PC and switch?

[coarse abyss]

Yep, crossplay and cross-progression

[gritty socket]

At least it's not the only frog outfit, since there's one in 'Plushie Pals', but that one's also paid. The bucket hat will probably look great as a replacement for the earmuffs in that set, though

Also, I just love that it's a Froggy Bucket hat.

[coarse abyss]

Yeah, i guess. I might just try to steal a switch or something so i can do the account linking part

[fathom radish]

I think how i understood it is you just have to log in/link a user profile on a switch, and each switch can have multiple user profiles so 👀 find a friend irl with one and do it then delete the profile after? hope it will work for those who don’t have a switch

[coarse abyss]

I have a few friends with switches, so i'll definitely look into it

[fathom radish]

Gotta get that froggy bucket hat

[lime mirage]

In server news : "Palians! :einarroll:
Are you excited for Palia on Nintendo Switch?"
No Mam I'm not. I would be more to see real fixes to numerous issues on the PC platform. And the "Unable to Connect" solved for the many of us who have it since 2 months. Now permanent for me. So unable to play at all...
We August beta users saw a net degradation of stability when the Epic gamers joined mid October. What will it be when the Switch user will join? After Apocalypse-0174 then Switch-Armagedon?

[gritty socket]

TBH, I expected it to work using your Nintendo Account

[fierce viper]

I hope with switch version getting released that means controller support will finally be fixed, cause it wouldn't make much sense otherwise lol

[coarse abyss]

That is both my main hope and worry at the same time

[fathom radish]

This might be correct actually they describe it in both ways so that’s confusing

[fierce viper]

I don't care if it's not fixed 100% but at least either revert to the last settings or at least make it so the game doesn't freeze just by using a controller 😂

[fathom radish]

Also this is confusing, can you not play on a different switch only the one you link to? Or am i misunderstanding that

[humble briar]

Sounds like you can only have 1 Switch profile linked to your Palia account at a time. Unknown what the consequences are of changing which Switch profile is bound, and how often you can rebind them

[fierce viper]

I wonder if I link my profile on switch if I'll still be able to log in on pc

[fathom radish]

Yes you will, its cross progression so can play on both

[fierce viper]

I'm guessing the "multiple devices" means multiple switch devices then

[humble briar]

I don't think you can have a single Switch profile across multiple devices so implicitly, you can't have one Palia account linked to different Switch profiles across multiple devices

[fathom radish]

I haven’t actually played a game before that had cross progression between pc and switch so im unsure how it will work, like sheep said you might have to unlink and relink on a new device if you change switch or something

I hope they wouldn’t lock your account permanently to one switch that would be crazy

[gritty socket]

That might be something worth asking one of the CMs during patch downtime

[fathom radish]

Has anyone else played a game with cross progression on both pc and switch? I need that input 😂

Either way though I’m super excited, hope we actually get those huge bay windows that were in the switch trailer

[humble briar]

Probably worth asking. But I doubt linking your account on Switch will affect your PC gameplay

[fierce viper]

Fortnite? 🤣

[daring tide]

Palia for switch doesn't seem available for preorder in uk store? Is that just my inexperience wit hthe store?

[slow olive]

I've done it. Just searched for palia and it came up

[warm python]

seeing Palia and Fortnite in the same convo makes me laugh after that one stream...

[daring tide]

I see it there but it says not available yet?

(again though, I am a new switch owner, trying it for disability friendly)

[coarse abyss]

It will be available on the 14th. If you can't pre-order it right now, that's likely an issue they are working to resolve

[carmine gyro]

I am beyond confused how this game got approval for the Switch release. Unless the Switch version that was approved is way more stable then it currently is right, which is possible, then it's not gonna be pretty.

[carmine gyro]

I just went onto the UK eShop on the Switch and was able to pre-order. The UK Nintendo site doesn't have that option.

[dense ermine]

Burning out the good will of the player base on multiple platforms is not going to end well. For their sake I do hope they got it right this time. I am not hopeful anymore.

[stoic frost]

I've got my review ready to go once it releases on Steam

[tardy obsidian]

switch is the perfect platform for them because the average switch player can't just go to discord to talk about their issues tho. wouldn't surprise me if the game's getting killed on PC next

[fierce viper]

I think epic is gonna hold onto the license so steam can't get it because they are still trying to get money from their epic exclusives, I mean just look how well ooblets launched

[regal gull]

does anyone know if I can play with a controller on my PC?

[carmine gyro]

They wouldn't dare, steam reviews are too in the face and would suffer the No Man's Sky fate

[stoic frost]

https://store.steampowered.com/app/2707930/Palia/ It appears they would dare

[fierce viper]

Yes, but it's mega jank. There will be some times you need to use keyboard and mouse when the controller doesn't work

[somber cradle]

Did they say Palia was gonna be F2P when it releases on the switch on the 14th?

[dense ermine]

There is no forced positivity on Steam. The reviews are going to range from brutally honest to downright toxic.

[fiery sphinx]

Yes, don't even need a Nintendo Online subscription.

[tardy obsidian]

I think if Palia released on Steam it would be a legitimate contender to beat Overwatch 2 iykyk

[regal gull]

thanks!

[warm python]

Steam discussions are a cesspool, can't confirm too much about the reviews but they tend to not pull punches for good or bad

[fierce viper]

The slightest texture issue creates a negative steam review so if they dare, I'd feel bad seeing the words mixed or very negative on such a fun game

[warm python]

good when it's legit criticism like we have here and bad when it's woke game bad etcetc and dumb bleep like that, so i'd be more curious as to the content of the reviews rather than the numbers

[fierce viper]

Oh I forgot how offensive steam players get when anything seems "woke"

[gritty socket]

We'll probably see a lot more of the latter.

[warm python]

Oh I don't doubt. I always call steam discussion one of the worst places with gaming, even worse than gamefaqs. the reviews can be good or bad though, just gotta read those. just stay away from the discussion forums

[fierce viper]

I remember coral Island had a pride flag and the steam community had an entire meltdown over it

[daring tide]

Ah I will try the eshop, thanks so much! Now to learn how to use it 😄

[gritty socket]

Considering they're explicitly talking up crossplay between PC and Switch? I find them doing that very unlikely

[daring tide]

(for the record, I'm excited for the switch because using the laptop is increasingly painful and I want to keep playing this little cosy game)

[warm python]

people lost their damn minds cause of a tiny trans flag in Celeste iirc lmao. and when I was trying to find help for a bug in FF6 pixel remaster, I had to deal with a bunch of people shrieking about censorship cause Celes didn't get slapped in a scene anymore and a certain salute that looked kinda like a certain other salute that had already been taken out of the game in another version was still taken out

I just wanted to know how to fix the damn bug I was having with learning a skill for Gau

[fierce viper]

Palia on switch be like: "the software was closed because an error occured"

[gritty socket]

Honestly, you can still get that to happen with a lot of games on the Switch. I love the Switch (Super Mario RPG Remake alone was worth owning one), but boy is it showing its age. Switch 2 when

[fierce viper]

I had that screen several times when playing scarlet/violet, I thought it was crazy I'm playing a first party game that crashes like this

[tardy obsidian]

Yup, all negative reviews on steam are because of pride flags 😂 I heard they replaced the game Overwatch with a video of a pride flag and that's why Overwatch 2 is overwhelmingly negative

[gritty socket]

Odd... I don't think anyone here is saying that, but OK

[tardy obsidian]

the amount of bikeshedding in this dc is enough to solve bike parking issues in whole Amsterdam

[zenith sphinx]

I haven’t played Palia for a little while, any tips and what notttt? ^~^

[dire coral]

Depending on where you left, not much has changed rlly (from how you played before). Mining yields a bit more gold now, there's a new huntable, new crops maybe (if you left before corn + peppers).

There's currently a bug that lets you skip out on Zeki Gacha that'll get fixed maybe today so there's the second best tip B)

[cosmic oak]

dec 14th, unexpected

This will be interesting

[warm python]

That's why I mentioned more that it was the discussion section I took as a general clusterbleep, and that the reviews themselves could make sense or not. Discussions I discount because of many an experience but I'll still scroll through reviews

[warm python]

Interesting is a definite word for it lmffff

[tardy obsidian]

people read steam discussions?

[warm python]

I had no choice once when I was trying to find tech support for a game. it was. horrible lmao

[fierce viper]

yikes

[tardy obsidian]

yikes to you too, on spikes

[oak dragon]

so are the comunities only for friend groups or for everyone

[tardy obsidian]

try reddit next time, it's pretty much steam forums but with a bit less pointless feature requests and incoherent rants in different languages 🙃

[gritty socket]

"Communities" in game are basically like guilds. Right now, there's admittedly not much to do with them, but apparently Community activities are planned in the future

[warm python]

I tried, but no one was talking shop about the game on reddit ;;

[fervent wing]

Will you need an online membership to play Palia on Switch?

[fiery sphinx]

No. #💬│palia-general message

[fervent wing]

Awesome! Thanks 🙂

[zenith sphinx]

Think I was nearing endgame? Farming Uh… Whatever that last metal is I can’t rememberr.. Definitely left before corn + peppers and Zeki Gacha?

[reef verge]

my friend today start palia and bitdefender find palialauncher.exe infected by "Gen:Suspicious.Cloud.2.@B2@auKSi6ji"

[fiery sphinx]

BitDefender is flagging Palia's launcher as a false positive. Restore the file and add an exception, if it will allow it.

[gritty socket]

Oh yeah, if you're at Palium and Flow Wood you're close to the current 'endgame' such as it is. By 'Zeki Gacha', they're referring to the stuff you can get from Zeki's shop with Lucky Coins

We should be getting another Temple in the upcoming patch (bringing our list of active Temples up to 3), and that will in turn unlock another one of the bundle sets to turn items in to

[fierce viper]

Tbh I've hit gold limit and I haven't even touched bundles 😂

[cosmic oak]

it's kinda crazy to think that we started in August and are approaching Switch release and we really havent had any evolution of end game content

[fierce viper]

Hodari romance is game evolution enough for me

[gritty socket]

Honestly? The bundles being the closest thing to an endgame is fine, I think, at least for now

[reef verge]

and install exe too? it's strange

[cosmic oak]

They need to add a boxing ring because he'd be the first one I'd spar with

[gritty socket]

I'm curious if getting all of the bundles finished is going to unlock anything extra for players, but that's a question for future updates

[fierce viper]

Omg I would love to do my time at portia/sandrock style sparing with the villagers

[gritty socket]

Once we get all the Temples in, I want to see new stuff. New Skills, new zones, all of it

[fiery sphinx]

It is, but we have verified with both Player Support and literally 72 other antiviruses that there is no malware. S6 updated Palia's launcher today, and for some reason BitDefender won't accept that it is not malicious. It should be as simple as restoring the file and adding an exception https://www.bitdefender.com/consumer/support/answer/2092/ but it continues to flag for some users even after the exception is put in. I'd recommend opening a ticket with player support either way https://support.palia.com

[zenith sphinx]

Oooh okay, thanks for the info! Will need to get back on soooon

[latent turret]

hey, new player here... trying to logg in and i see the downtime starts at 5pm EST and wil last to around 7 pm EST but i cant logg inn now. have i missunderstood the time of maintnens?

[runic eagle]

It's here as well.
#📢│palia-status message

[latent turret]

so maybe it wil last all day 😅

[vivid lichen]

How ready is Palia to hit the Switch tho

[runic eagle]

Not typically

[lyric night]

imagine them having the switch build completely bug free and clowned us with the PC beta that what I'm thinking atm haha

[latent turret]

i have no ide. i just downloaded it today and wanted to test it out and im met with downtime that shouldnt have started yet LOL Nice start 😅

[vivid lichen]

If that’s so i’m in luck with my 2 switches on standby. (Finally i won’t have to beg people to do stuff with me for the together weekly part) 🤣

[coral coral]

Servers aren't down yet so you should be able to login. You may have a different connection bug 😦

[latent turret]

when i type in the logg in and pasword the only thing hapening is the downtime sign blinking 😅

[runic eagle]

Yeah, you should still be able to log on though.

[coral coral]

No other pop up messages? Triple checked your password?

[fiery sphinx]

Make sure there's not a space after your email.

[oak dragon]

i was in the wrong language so i was like wtf

[latent turret]

thanks. it was the capital letter at the beginning of the mail 😂

[ocean geyser]

Connection issues are killing me!

[tribal canyon]

Think they'll be able to get connection issues fixed enough to run the game on Switch? o.o;

[quaint geyser]

Has anyone else got their chaapa plushie yet? They're so cute!

[gaunt kernel]

I am so sad I missed this 😭

[quaint geyser]

It is such a shame that it was a limited time thing

[tardy obsidian]

aged like milk

[gleaming laurel]

side note, your keyboard is so pretty

[quaint geyser]

Thank you!

[hard yarrow]

anyone else having a lot of dc's due to their decor on a specific plot & when it starts to load in?

[cosmic oak]

at this point, i'm pretty sure everything in the game is causing some sort of connection issue

[royal arch]

I hope today's patch fixes more then it breaks. Also imo this game is not Switch ready. But what do I Know? I hope I'm wrong. Have a good day everyone!

[fathom radish]

Guess we will see if it's switch ready or not when we load up the game on the actual switch, who knows

[odd orchid]

Congrats S6 on the Nintendo Switch launch coming up!! Very exciting to have new Palians joining us in the game!!

[near cedar]

Anyone else finding European servers unplayable?

[vocal cargo]

Apparently, even more than before the last patch.

[near cedar]

It's just constantly disconnecting from the server. So frustrating

[wet aurora]

can we link our accounts to the switch yet or not?

[lyric night]

once the game is available on switch

[wet aurora]

oh okay ty!

[vocal cargo]

It appeared NA people were pre-downloading it right after the announcement. If you do, be careful that you don't skip the instructions.

[wet aurora]

I am pre downloading it now, thought i could link accounts too but i guess not yet!

[lyric night]

the game can only be launched beginning december 14 8am PT, thats when we are able to link accs we need to log in the first time thats when the linking happens and can't be changed

one user profile on switch can only have one palia acc, but u can simply use another userprofile for another acc, nintendo switch online is not needed

[wet aurora]

but you can go back and forth from pc to switch, that is what cross progression is right?

[lyric night]

yup

[celest maple]

Hi, I downloaded the launcher from the website and trying to install it. Earlier, it installed but was crashing on launch. After uninstalling it and starting the installation, it's stuck on 99%, any idea what am I doing wrong here? (Or maybe a right channel to ask this?)

[remote latch]

You could try #💻│tech-help in case they have come across a problem like this

[tribal canyon]

@winter nebula I have maxed out romance with everyone except Einar. <_>; My character could never make that comment either. ||She never sleeps at all, so can't dream about anyone||.

[compact pumice]

hello after playing with the new update i still have the halloween decorations for sell is that normal ?

[tribal canyon]

It shouldn't be, but it's also an opportunity for people to get them that weren't able to due to being broke before xD

[lyric night]

yup its bugged atm will be fixed with the patch in 2 hrs

[compact pumice]

okay thanks for the info

[solar swan]

I'm sweatin dawg. Gotta get the planner out before switch release

If I just concentrate I could probably get it done. Just lots of data adding

[brisk spruce]

get what done before switch release?

[solar swan]

this printable™️ planner thingie i'm doing. at like 40 pages rn

[brisk spruce]

ohh okay, understandable don't forget to plan for the wind temple being added in a couple hours, so there will be a bit more to add than there is now

[solar swan]

yea ik D: i got templates and stuff so that part at least should be easy. more of hand-typing every furniture item etc

[brisk spruce]

I'm so annoyed, I was trying to sleep until the update was done but I woke up with an upset tummy and just feeling really bleh overall and can't get back to bed

[tribal canyon]

My brain is constantly trying to figure out "What's the best time to head into town to interact with as many people as possible, without having to go out of my way to find them in their homes/outskirts?" Exception for that would be the Bahari ones that stay there and Einar.

[brisk spruce]

it's sometime in the afternoon if you want them to all be in town minus the bahari/einar handful

well, maybe noon. I can't remember when the daiya family actually leave the town to go home.

[solar swan]

5 pm-ish for Delaila, 6pm for auni, 5pm for Badruu, 7-ih for Nai'o. bam. planner works

ASSUMING the wiki is accurate.

[brisk spruce]

okay yeah afternoon then, because jina/elouisa/hekla/ashura don't start walking back to town until like 3-5 pm (roughly)

when I was trying to talk to all of them, I'd do it while reth & tish were visiting Jel, lots of people were in the tavern, and jina/hekla/eshe/daiya family were all kinda passing over the bridge back to back

[celest maple]

its been 20 time i launch palia, everyone have same problem ?

[rotund rune]

If the game is coming to Switch, does that mean it's coming out of Beta too?

[celest maple]

21 time

[celest maple]

its mean your switch will explode maintly

[ruby maple]

i cant even get that far

[celest maple]

22 times

you know why, they should switch name instagram with "Fix Palia" instead "Play Palia" is that the real true

[shell mango]

We’re still at version 0.174 I think we’ll be in beta for quite a while 💀

[celest maple]

Can Palia compete with Lego Fornite though? 🤔

[rotund rune]

Then they're "releasing" a game to another platform before the game is finished? Cool...

[ruby maple]

everytime i try to even open the game today this pops up "There was a error installing Palia. Please close the Launcher and re-open to try again" i could play fine yesterday besides 3ish kicks 😭

[celest maple]

I JOINED OMGGG 24 TIME new record

[shell mango]

Basically 🧍🏻‍♀️

[round lynx]

Let's make a bet how hot will my switch be when I try to play Palia on it?
I bet 70 C

[shell mango]

The game is far from finished if you’ve played it I mean hunting is just barely a skill and we have no animal husbandry. Gardening has like no fruit seeds unless you get some friendships at level 3

[vocal cargo]

This will either be the greatest comeback or biggest dumpster fire.

[thorn temple]

fiya time

[round lynx]

[abstract lark]

from the trailer it looked like they had to sacrifice a lot on graphics so it will be hot and look mediocre for it

[brisk spruce]

idk, the switch trailer didn't mention beta, the description in the switch trailer didn't mention beta, the news page for the switch launch didn't mention beta, and the file labeled "SplashScreen2_Switch" is the same as our current splashscreen but doesn't have the beta tag it doesn't really sound like a beta past switch launch

[round lynx]

I play on PC anyway I don't care plus nobody buys a switch and expects top tier graphics eh?

[shell mango]

Ngl if it has taken them so long to just complete the game they shouldn’t have added another platform… sometimes keeping things PC only is ok

[vocal cargo]

I'm assuming 0.175 is meant to be the Switch release. With all the problems with 0.174, they decided to push 0.175 early to give them time to fix all the bugs.

[abstract lark]

true, I'm more worried about aiming at deer on my switch lite lol

[thorn temple]

no way will it all be fixed, plus we have new ones to get through :d

[round lynx]

It will have aim assist don't worry

[shell mango]

Who cares if it is or isn’t a beta we’re literally on version 0.174 💀 the game is not finished

[celest maple]

i dont know what going on with S6 team, but palia is not ready for switch 💀

[thorn temple]

I predict the first air temple bug will be that it falls from the sky and crushes everyone :C

[celest maple]

Switch is top gen console, best graphics. What you talking about? Have you seen Tears of The Kingdom 😼

[round lynx]

I'm just happy I can fish in bed now lol or not have to go through a login screen every time I need to water my garden or tlak to Einar for the day

[brisk spruce]

the person who asked if it was coming out of beta at switch launch cares 💀 all of the people who use "it's in beta" as an excuse care 💀 lots of people care

[round lynx]

Tears of the kingdom is gorgeous, Splatoon is gorgeous, Animal crossing is gorgeous, but they're different games made and optimised by one of the richest companies in the world specifically for their own console

Unless youre lighthearted trolling sorry i didnt catch it, those games do look wonderful tho

[shell mango]

Ok lemme explain even if they don’t call it beta it still is a beta stage because the game is still in version 0.1 so focusing on categorising it makes no sense

[brisk spruce]

thats not how game versioning works. it's over 100 versions in (most of which were before beta). that's why the number is over 100

[celest maple]

It was /s but on that note Pokemon S/V begs to differ 😭

[shell mango]

Palia chokes good PCs for no reason on high settings what are they gonna do with Switch 💀

[abstract lark]

Palia just doesn't have that aesthetic that's perfect for switch like those games you mentioned for real, it's close but it doesn't have that charm down yet idk it looks and feels like a PC game and seeing it on the small screen doesn't feel as good

[thorn temple]

all GF's games are a total mess... 😄

[ripe haven]

Can't wait to play it on the switch.

[shell mango]

If it plays

[celest maple]

fun fact me collect stone for the next update glitch recipe lmao

[round lynx]

I hated S/V so much bro literally the worst game I've played so yeah I didnt even mention it

[vocal cargo]

Version numbering is arbitrary.

[shell mango]

So they can jump versions massively if they want?

[abstract lark]

how the ~~heck ~~is it arbitrary, you literally start at 0 and set goals for each different sub version, one for big executable changes, one for content, one for hotfixes 1(executable main version).172(content patch version).0(hotfix patch version) (just an example)

[shell mango]

https://tenor.com/view/reactions-scratching-head-gif-10099532

[round lynx]

Hopefully it'll feel good on OLED, I worry about the Lite though

[shell mango]

So gifs don’t work here 💔

[abstract lark]

cries in poor tears, I only have lite

[distant meadow]

any word if the patch today adresses the accomplishment bugs too?

[umbral marsh]

We probably have to wait for the patch notes

[round lynx]

I have the limited edition Splatoon 3 OLED Switch you can make fun of me

[ocean stone]

If you copy and paste gif as image it should work, in this channel at least. Deffo not the general chat

[vocal cargo]

They can go from 0.175 to 1.0. That is how the heck it is arbitrary.

[abstract lark]

regardless of me disliking the splatoon weird octopus aesthetic that game looks gorgeous

[golden lance]

I'm sorry if the question have already been asked but is that a me bug or a general bug that I can't get to have better than "low" graphics ? (when I had epic before)

[distant meadow]

mh ok 😒 its been to long that i cant see any accomplishments (since firre temple)

[round lynx]

OST slaps too unironically

[brisk spruce]

I have that one too lol it's connected to my computer monitor still from when I was playing splat3 so at least linking my account will be easy

[abstract lark]

??? because that first number is the main version of the software, so if you're done with 0.175 and are updating the whole package you go to the next number 1.0???? are you trolling or do you not get it? you think it needs to reach 0.999 or something to go to 1.0? I just explained that each number means a different goalpost

[coarse abyss]

It's a known issue, the game doesn't save any settings that you change at the moment

[golden lance]

ok thank you 🙂

[round lynx]

Somehow I have an easier time aiming my Hydra in handheld. Really tough to play on a screen

[vocal cargo]

Literally, the exact opposite of what I think, which is why I replied to the person constantly stating that the game is only at 0.175.

[brisk spruce]

yeah, I definitely have an easier time with some things while handheld. I just needed the bigger screen at the time because I was struggling to see my eyes are doing better now

[round lynx]

I'm glad you got better<3

[shell mango]

I honestly dunno what’s going on anymore but I genuinely feel the game isn’t finished and has a way longer road I don’t feel like it feels close to release at all I mean we don’t even have different house formats we only got the harvest house

[round lynx]

Heyyyheyyheyyheyaaa
heyyyheyyhyeyy
I say HEY
whats going OONN

[brisk spruce]

a lot of us don't think it's ready to be finished or even launched on switch at all, but if they have a goal then they have a goal lol we can't change that. they're gonna launch when they want or need to

[hollow acorn]

Einar is going on!

[summer spear]

AND SO I CRY SOMETIMES WHILE I'M LYING IN BED JUST TO GET IT ALL OUT WHAT'S IN MY HEAD

[vocal cargo]

Hopefully, the game is never "finished". Things will be constantly added and that has nothing to do with a version number.

[round lynx]

He sure is goin'

[umbral marsh]

I just hope they don't do a coral island and release the 1.0 being buggy and unfinished x.x as much as I love both games, I do think they need TIME

[shell mango]

Yes I don’t want it to be finished I want it to get to a release state obviously

[novel narwhal]

Will you keep the same character on PC to Switch? or do you start from scratch

[coarse abyss]

Well, the patch that we get today is what will release on the switch as well. Soooo yeah

[umbral marsh]

It has cross progression, so you keep everything

[brisk spruce]

you can do either. it's supposed to prompt you to either create an account or log in to an existing one when you launch for the first time

[shell mango]

I don’t think it will ever be as bad as Coral Island bc they are not forced to release since they have ways to make money before it

[umbral marsh]

Idk man, they are already releasing the switch version so I'm very on the fence xD

[shell mango]

Well they released on the Switch so they can make more money 😍 it’s not the same as a full release

[coarse abyss]

The beta tag is conveniently missing from all the switch art and announcements

I'm not sure what to make of that at the moment, to be honest

[crystal junco]

If thats the case people can stop saying the bugs are cuz its a beta 😇

[thick sundial]

Yes - there are no beta tags on any of the trailers or on the Nintendo page. The game is out now folks.

[coarse abyss]

The Steam page still has the beta trailer, but that could be because that's the only one they have. Plus, Steam is probably a bit more lax in their requirements for their releases

[umbral marsh]

The trailer they showed at the game awards today was pretty nice 👍 maybe they'll change it to that on steam at a later date 🤔

[coarse abyss]

They probably will. Or make a new one when it becomes interesting

[brisk spruce]

the japanese eshop had screenshots that were in the game awards trailer, before it came out I think that's why that page got taken down

[crystal junco]

I honestly don’t care what it says, I just hope it’ll be less buggy.

[coarse abyss]

I think that's what we all hope for as well haha! We'll see how it goes today i guess

[fair shadow]

Is it still FTP on switch? I don’t have an account to look

[brisk spruce]

do you think they'll be nice and post the patch notes soon or do you think they're going to wait until after maint in case... y'know...

[coarse abyss]

Yep! Free to play and you don't even need an NSO subscription

[fair shadow]

Nice! Just have some friends looking to play. I somehow don’t have a switch

[vocal cargo]

Lately, they've been posting them soon after maintenance starts but we'll see when we see.

[crystal junco]

I wouldn’t be surprised if they waited based off people’s recent reactions to stuff 😂

[fair shadow]

Think they’ll wait, too.

[coarse abyss]

I could see it either way. Considering that the patch was supposed to come in ~2 weeks, i'm not even sure if they have the notes fully ready right now. They probably do, but i wouldn't be surprised if they still had some work to do on it

[umbral marsh]

Wait how does that work? Is it a solo game without NSO or can you still play with people o.o

[brisk spruce]

ik that's why I asked the last one was an hour before maint even started and people were already starting fires in discord

[dreamy yoke]

Just watched the switch trailer and it’s got me excited as if it’s a new game 😂 it was cute

[thorn temple]

fret not, the info will be wrong and old images used anyway 😄

[coarse abyss]

I'm pretty sure you can play online as normal, but without needing NSO for it

[brisk spruce]

jk they posted them, it's up https://palia.com/news/patch-175

[vocal cargo]

Did they showcase any of the bugs in the trailer?

[lyric night]

palia doesn't need NSO bcs they have their own servers, NSO is only for the ongoing costs of nintendos servers

[umbral marsh]

Ohhh interesting! Thanks for explaining

Nooooo Starstones got nerfed. My money income 😭
Also does anyone know how you get the ember born furniture?

[celest maple]

No but they showcased stuff we don't have yet :D, one of their screenshots has a housing addition we don't have

[tribal jacinth]

bundle time

[brisk spruce]

okay so there will now be (new bundle reward spoilers in case anyone is avoiding) ||two ancient creatures to come visit you, the kitsuu and the silverwing. I know we can catch a star ancient fish to display, but I would like to request a big pond for it to randomly surface from too I'm gonna feel like it's being left out a bit if the 4th bundle ends up with the same type of visiting-ancient-creature reward too||

[crystal junco]

I didn’t even look at what the switch version shows, I still do the preorder in hopes it’ll work better. 😅🥺

[celest maple]

I think it might work better on the switch, just because there's less processing variety on the switch tbh

[crystal junco]

Thats my hopes. My computer shouldn’t have any issues running the game so it stresses me out that it does. It helps knowing its not my fault though.

[thorn temple]

I think you're gonna see many things go boom 😄

[celest maple]

I'm glad I can run the game on Epic settings, but just sucks so much for everyone else that can't. The game is so unoptimized my graphics cards goes crazy though.

[brisk spruce]

👀 more starstone & palium changes

[solid elk]

Kinda getting tired of Star stones getting nerfed. At this point, if they don’t want anyone to make money they need to lower the prices of everything again instead of making it impossible to make good money. Especially for people who don’t wanna do cake parties

[gritty socket]

Tbh? Starstones were q bit too common for their supposed rarity. I liked that, but...

[sinful hare]

They changed the price of the winter glider do people know if we are going to get the difference back to our accounts?

[hexed flax]

time to go mine for the next 40 minutes

[solid elk]

Doubtful

[celest maple]

These are pretty common ones so I think I get why they're being nerfed.

[crystal junco]

Agreed. I went around trying to get iron and ended up with like 15 of them so I sold the whole thing lol

[sinful hare]

That’s so dumb

[forest compass]

but then the prices should reflect that. either bump the prices down, or the spawn rate... i think doing both is a bit much

[brisk spruce]

the CMs usually talk in #💬│palia-general during maintenance, when it starts you should see if you can ask one of them

[coarse abyss]

I feel that, but then they could've adjusted their droprate down while bringing the price up

This needs testing of course, but it wouldn't be the first time S6 nerfed something too much

[dense ermine]

"If we make solo progression not mind numbingly boring or difficult then nobody will engage in the massive amount of multiplayer content we don't have yet." - S6 probably

[solid elk]

The thing about it is, not everyone wants to participate in the multiplayer aspect and they’re penalizing everyone for it.

[brisk spruce]

I didnt want to sell the expensive starstones because they're still really pricey post-nerf buuut I'm gonna go sell most of my cheap ones now,

[coarse abyss]

You know, this is a good summary of how i feel most of the time as well

[hollow acorn]

Starstones could be rarer, but then please worth more at the same time.

[celest maple]

A SALE WOW 😲

[pine sable]

Just sold my citrines because I caught the patchnotes, theyll be under the 500 gold "keep price" I set for myself after the patch.

[crystal junco]

I don’t even know how they could add multiplayer stuff here despite it being multiplayer. Without combat or the ability to do main quest stuff together that just leaves flow groves. The rest can be done solo and the only “multiplayer” aspect is someone else is nearby lol

[celest maple]

The multiplayer aspect is someone being mad over a pallium node and calling you an ass. GG

[gritty socket]

I think part of the intent behind nerfing them is less "we want you to have less money" and more "we want you to not feel like you should immediately open-palm slam starstones into your shipping bin." I may be tempted to gift them, now!

[coarse abyss]

I'm pretty sure that the Galerider Glider is a different one (check the photo above), but they put the christmas glider's photo there accidentally. I'll bring this up to the team

[hollow acorn]

I am not more tempted then before. Into the bin they go.

[solid elk]

Sell them

[crystal junco]

I gifted and thats how I got Auni to level 4 quick. Tish be next 😈😂

[dense ermine]

Psst... make communities viable. Make a community plot. Allow group progression through said plot that could give bonuses to your solo experience. They have endless possibilities there. Maybe give some skills a rethink and make them also group activities like processing ores and furniture crafting could function on a group level like cooking. It's not that they lack options, but rather the creativity and foresight to live up to the hype they generated.

[pine sable]

I might actually get the bundle just because i want to drive home the point the normal prices for outfits are too much...

[celest maple]

It's a great price tbh, idk how much 850 is but I'm buying it

[crystal junco]

Cooking us the only home plot thing available besides giving someone access to help decorate but even then I only let one person do that. Can’t even flip a light switch without permissions 😂

[gritty socket]

I'm hoping they can finally use some of the dev time they were using for Switch prep and put it towards more things for Communities

[pine sable]

850 is 8,50 in euros, so its quite nice even if you might not want one or two of the things

[sleek cedar]

Why do they keep nerfing the sell price of items??? I'm already struggling financially as it is

[crystal junco]

Isn’t happy hiker the giant backpack one? I’m tempted cuz the backpack is cute 😂 I’d wear it while mining and such

[thorn temple]

no garden yet?

[lime mirage]

slowmode test

[sleek cedar]

I have a full garden 😿

[dense ermine]

They said you can play the game how you want. They never said they would make the way you're playing on par with the playstyle they'd prefer you to play.

[pine sable]

that's trailblazer, happy hiker is new

[crystal junco]

Darn 🥺

[celest maple]

Oh that's super affordable! Actually I consider anything under $10 affordable for me, I can spend more but on Palia no thanks lmao

[pine sable]

it's a single coin pack too, so no leftover currencies

[gritty socket]

Which one is the ugly sweater? Because I want that...

[haughty briar]

why does not the patch notes mention Anything about the problems with the latest update? the halloween shop? Zeki crafting furniture recipes? candle quest problem that most people have (quest completes at 8 villagers)????

[celest maple]

Because these patch notes are preliminary, they'll be updated later with fixes or MORE BUGS 🐛

[crystal junco]

I did 23/24 villagers because I didn’t go home until I was done

[pine sable]

they never mention all fixes, even though i personally believe they should, even if that makes the notes longer

[brisk spruce]

some people said they're having it end early while still in town too, not just from going home

[crystal junco]

Thats really disappointing):

[gritty socket]

The patch notes did explicitly mention the Halloween store, so...

[lime mirage]

ok I post here and it appears then vanishes as fast. Am I censored or muted?

[pine sable]

you mightve triggered the automod

[thorn temple]

So the palium change, do we think it's palium everywhere and no set spawn, or set spawn and potential everywhere? 😄

[haughty briar]

Ok then I missed that, mb.

[pine sable]

i think all nodes in Bahari can now just be iron, stone or palium. That makes most sense.

[dense ermine]

I do like the palium change. More potential, but I am willing to bet in typical fashion they kneecapped it by making only X number of palium nodes max spawned into a map at any given time.

[thorn temple]

This is what I think, but it makes it rarer and will inevitably cause the same issue as flow.

[celest maple]

YAY 😄

[lime mirage]

yep censored. automod does not like mention of lingerie (on new glider).

[pine sable]

Yes, it will. All we can do is send feedback unfortunately.

[lime mirage]

how stoopid.

[crystal junco]

I like the new Palium idea. I think its boring having it stuck in just a few areas that people circle like hawks 😂

[thorn temple]

and watch it be ignored, yepyep

[gritty socket]

I like the look of the new glider, assuming it's the one in the bundle

[dense ermine]

They seemed to listen as I suggested nearly this exact change to said feedback form. Edit: The palium one.

[pine sable]

I know that feeling. But I cant help but keep trying.

[brisk spruce]

going to blame you if it goes terribly now
(jk jk, I actually suggested something similar as well with the form)

[thorn temple]

I'm just finding less and less like they have any idea of what goes on in game tbh.

[dire coral]

If the current pallium nodes end up with a chance of iron and I can't find any pallium I will curse both your cows and your future bloodlines

[pine sable]

I have to agree with you. It seems they continuously make choices that will add more player strife.

[gritty socket]

I find they do listen to feedback, it just takes time sometimes

[thorn temple]

like when multiple people said about the subira bug and they didn't announce anything until DAYS later, anywhere? 😄

Everyone who has complaints about nerfing seem to want to hit max whatever quick. Personally none of it bothers me that much because I just like looking around and seeing if others nearby need help. I saw someone chopping trees trying to kill mujiin so I offered to chop the trees for them. Small things like that make the game for me

I regret nothing! and tbf mine was more of a "leave the palium/stone specific nodes, but add a small chance of palium spawn on iron nodes" kind of thing it was before they increased the spawn rate

I already have max whatever. I still don't like when I see money nerfs because I know what the new player experience was like, I want others to have a better time than I did.

Look, I admire helping folks. I like that part, too. But maybe they're sad about losing what makes the game for them? Something to think about :)

A couple more patch cycles and starstones will be worth as much as tree seeds

[celest maple]

Nerfs aren't even that impactful imo, not like the cake party beef anyway lmao

[crystal junco]

Probably so. Haha. I don’t see anything wrong with being upset about changes. I just wanted to share my view a little (:

[thorn temple]

that so shoulda been more, but for multiplayers, not solo

[sleek cedar]

I just want to be able to upgrade my house and the cost of all the rooms is so high as it is, the constant nerfing keeps making it harder and harder

[dense ermine]

I get what they're after. If you're solo you have to do multiple things and manage time efficiently to get anywhere in any meaningful amount of time. They still want multiplayer to be appealing but where the heck is the multiplayer besides cooking? I know there are other things, but they don't seem very impactful to me.

[gritty socket]

Honestly, even with the money nerfs to starstones, things are still better for new players than it was at launch

I hate to be stupidly censored for one normal word. But then I'm EU, not a moron.
So rephrasing my censored post for the prude eyes of US automod......
I don't know for you but the Galerider Glider makes me think of a glider that did catch some lingerie from a laundry line on his way down...
