[sour gorge]

yep Samus as well. But video games are only full of male character leads

[mellow verge]

I love Urbosa in hyrule warriors, she's awesome and so is Impa

[celest maple]

Monke fur coats? 😊

[late bay]

Thank you! I was worried I did it wrong!

[arctic onyx]

how to train your dragon mmo when?

[distant lintel]

are there classes?

[sudden rain]

the other thing is that there's inevitably huge backlash over female protagonists

[mellow verge]

i t hink there is one XD

[hidden rampart]

@celest maple Do not insult my famileh

[chilly schooner]

They haven't sent any emails yet. When they do send the email invites out, they've said they'll announce it so people are aware.

[sour gorge]

there is one but its a scam

[arctic onyx]

bruh fr?

[rancid stump]

They'll probably send everyone who signed up an email when they announce the date for the prealpha

[sudden rain]

the criticism against the women in TLOU 2 and alloy, for example, is kind of batshit

[sour gorge]

it's called Day of dragons

[celest maple]

Monke fur warm though. 😔

[sour gorge]

it's a scam @arctic onyx dont buy it

[late bay]

Thank you! I just found out about the game today so I suppose I’m out of the loop!

[sour canopy]

Wait wait, guys, here me out... An owlbear with a dragon-tail, scales, and feathered wings

[mellow verge]

food has arrived, ttyl

[opaque scroll]

and thats why we need more games like mass effect. where you can just choose how you want to display yourself as. its funny how progressive rpgs are

[arctic onyx]

that's too bad

[sour gorge]

whats wrong with the female leads I mentioned?

[fresh plover]

cant wait to play this game. got an albion vibe in it.

[hidden rampart]

Is game Monkeh friendly?

[sour gorge]

there are several great titles that have female leads why is everyone skipping over them?

[tepid fossil]

ViVi to be fair I was expecting a confirmation email too, but that's not how they opted to do it. it's fine either way I think. (This might make people duplicate their alpha sign up though)

[distant lintel]

ok they stated this game gameplay will be more like sims

[rancid stump]

Apes of all kinds welcome

[arctic onyx]

haven't seen monkeh yet, they only showed one biome

[clear wraith]

Wait what did I just walk back into? Why are we skipping over cool lady leads?

[sour gorge]

It's not like you click and tell your character what to do if thats what you're thinking

[hidden rampart]

Monkeh wants to swing on trees can happen?

[sudden rain]

they're not comparable to the number with just male leads, and most people have played at least some of them, especially people who want games with female protagonists. but of course not every game is going to appeal to everyone for other reasons, so of course people want more options?

[sour gorge]

cause video games are sexist now and only cater to men.

[opaque scroll]

nothing tbh. theres definitely an imbalance in male to female leads, but just having more of one thing isnt going to solve the problem, its why the problem exists in the first place

[sour gorge]

but to sit here and say that the video game industry is sexist is just stupid.

[clear wraith]

I'd say they always were, but are slowly getting better! With much crying and resistance every time.

[sudden rain]

...it objectively is

[gritty veldt]

then i guess i’m an absolute idiot lol

[sudden rain]

like you can't deny that it's sexist without just straight up being wrong?

[celest maple]

**This is Palia chat why is this starting to be about sexist in video games? Guys or girl leads in games both are awesome. Take this convo to off topic. **

[arctic onyx]

gameplay comes before anything else in my book

[clear wraith]

A lot of folks still act like women are only allowed to exist if men find them attractive. Or as a saying in fiction goes "Unattractive women are rewritten as men". But the attitude is improving!

[hidden rampart]

Monkeh respect all genders

[arctic onyx]

if the game isn't fun then why bother?

[sour gorge]

Then everything is sexist against women. the Movie industry is the most sexist against women same with the music industry. Im pretty sure the gaming industry is a lot better at not being sexist than those two things.

[celest maple]

<@&830144903652311090>

oop

[sudden rain]

ah, you've almost got hte point

[gritty veldt]

yeah, now you’re getting it!!

[sudden rain]

(i'll make that my last comment but. sighs deeply).

[restive marsh]

Ooooohhhh dear.

I'll just go take cover.

[rancid stump]

They're catering to the market. If gaming was largely female the same thing would be happening except for female appeal

[sour gorge]

ok im done bye

[grizzled granite]

let's keep the conversation on topic please :)

[restive marsh]

<@&830144903652311090> ?

[sour gorge]

blocking all of these people

[clear wraith]

But I'm not sure how it's relevant to Palia, because this game seems to be letting you present yourself a wide variety of ways!

[gritty veldt]

heck yeah

[hidden rampart]

Can Monkeh become moderator?

[faint dawn]

CHUUUU!

[restive marsh]

What Cheery said, but with relationships as well. Also, we're usually such a nice community. This concerns me.

[celest maple]

chuu go brrr

[gritty veldt]

[prime cradle]

I'd like to see what kind of dragons will be in this game. Like how they'll look unique in this one.

[sour gorge]

who said there would be dragons?

[arctic onyx]

fantasy setting

[prime cradle]

Who said there wouldn't?

[opaque scroll]

who said there wouldnt?

[rancid stump]

I hope there's magical foxes to tame

[sour gorge]

I doubt dragons are on the list for this game

[clear wraith]

idk man I'm just here for birds.

[hidden rampart]

Guess what i'm here for

[arctic onyx]

i hope i can have a purple camel

[prime cradle]

Name a high-fantasy without some species of dragon.

[arctic onyx]

animal dyes would be funky

[opaque scroll]

give me massive non-flying birds

[prime cradle]

wyvern, amphitheater, drake, long, etc.

[arctic onyx]

chocobo

[opaque scroll]

the land boys, totallly not chocobos

bocochos

[clear wraith]

Like emus?

[tardy cloud]

Would you settle for penguins?

[sudden rain]

penguin mounts in a snow setting....

[errant flame]

i wanna ride my chocobo all day~

[clear wraith]

Or Moas?

[lavish remnant]

Emu.

[prime cradle]

Ostrichrhino

[sour gorge]

Elder Scrolls 3 morrowind.

[thin venture]

you mean dinosaurs?

[chrome stratus]

some peaceful dragons for this game would be legit. ;3

[sour gorge]

No dragons in that game.

[clear wraith]

Emu ranching pls?

[lavish remnant]

More games need belugas.

[opaque scroll]

omg avatar the last airbender-esque penguin riding

[errant flame]

riding dinosaurs seem hilarious

[versed scarab]

helllo everyone

[wooden widget]

Long as someone doesnt go on about naming Wyvern type as subgenre of dragons

[opaque scroll]

oh yes please, dinos and dragons

[arctic onyx]

i wanna drive my Toyota prius around my neighborhood

[errant flame]

my favorite dragons are wyverns /s

[opaque scroll]

nah we'll just get salamanders and drakes instead

[lavish remnant]

Dinos and dragons are played out, let's get some Belugas and Mammoths

[wooden widget]

but are they considered the long way Dragons Deku (i reckon you dont need a ping since you just were on chat)

[errant flame]

appa from ATLA as a mount

[mellow flame]

ooh

[opaque scroll]

yknow, the other subgenres of dragons

[prime cradle]

What about only TINY dragons?

[arctic onyx]

flying bison from the last air bender

[errant flame]

people think Wyverns are dragons inherently which was the joke haha

[little shadow]

Lizards?

[celest maple]

I wanna take care of my own dragons, would be cute ☺️

[opaque scroll]

Sky whales tho

welcome brother

[gritty veldt]

that sounds like a challenge

[tardy cloud]

https://tenor.com/view/futurama-toad-frog-mesmerized-gif-3938170

[little shadow]

what about hypnotoad

[opaque scroll]

toad supremacy

[plush sleet]

I’m just hyped for a chill mmo game

[prime cradle]

I'm for toads if the game teaches plebs the difference between a toad and a frog.

[celest maple]

Same here

[half tartan]

We all love hypnotoad

[arctic onyx]

toads stay on top 😤

[opaque scroll]

we all are, its gonna be a good time

[distant lintel]

What is the lose condition then? sounds boring if no challenge in combat

[plush sleet]

I’m also ready for a game with a hopefully good economy system

[prime cradle]

No combat

[little shadow]

There’s no combat as of now

[opaque scroll]

tbh i dont think there will be one, just like, super casual mmo

[half tartan]

competition can come in other forms

[prime cradle]

Harvest Moon didn't have combat and that shit was addicting

[arctic onyx]

you faint like pokemon and get rushed to the hospital

[fringe minnow]

In any case i'm pretty sure the idea is to chill, like in stardew valley lmao

[rancid stump]

There is combat in this

[opaque scroll]

its just pve i believe

[distant lintel]

if there is combat then there is death

[opaque scroll]

Palia speedruns when??

[rancid stump]

There are dungeons too

[little shadow]

Devs have already said no health/death as of now

[storm pebble]

auction house wars 🤔

[gritty veldt]

i haven’t played pokémon in forever but this unlocked the little sound line for when your homies are getting restored

[distant lintel]

then there is no combat

[prime cradle]

Staaamina?

[arctic onyx]

AYO TIME TO SUCK THE FUN OUT OF THE GAME AND MIN MAX EVERYTHING

[opaque scroll]

do you need combat?

[little shadow]

Yes I said there is no combat now

[brisk ivy]

Palia speed run: Fastest time to obtain a full set of matching furniture from a fresh account.

[prime cradle]

yes

[opaque scroll]

min maxing can be fun tho

[arctic onyx]

i love min maxing

i do it allll the time

[opaque scroll]

bingo, or world first-ing dungeons

[plush sleet]

I think it’s gonna be cool that multiple neighbors can team up and go raid a dungeon

[prime cradle]

I min max in order to get achievements.

[distant lintel]

what can you min max?

[arctic onyx]

no clue

[rancid stump]

Min max wood chopping and fishing

[opaque scroll]

no one knows for right now tbh

[distant lintel]

there is no dps

[little shadow]

I’m too lazy to min/max but I loooooove theorycrafting

[swift trout]

min max house building

[arctic onyx]

we don't know

[rancid stump]

Trees per second

[opaque scroll]

yeah theres definitely no "roles" as it were

[arctic onyx]

let's wait for pre alpha

[rancid stump]

Tps

[prime cradle]

How much furniture can you shove into a room and still move in it.

[plush sleet]

I will be the COMBAT FISHERMAN

[opaque scroll]

now thats what i call min maxing

[arctic onyx]

sounds like a hunter x hunter origin story

[swift trout]

why move at all just chill in there

[lavish remnant]

depends on how tall the furniture is, technically you could fill the entire floor and still climb over it.

[opaque scroll]

fighting fish with your bear hands

[brisk ivy]

Ah! The refreshing smell and sound of chainsaws in a chill sim game. Ain't min/maxing grand?

[opaque scroll]

pun intended

[rancid stump]

I wanna see how I can glitch the building system and make crazy houses

[prime cradle]

I made the assumptions you'll need floor squares to sit in your recliner in the back next to the TV

[celest maple]

drop game or i will say the F word.

[arctic onyx]

i want to live in a gargantuan home, tall doors and grand staircases

[opaque scroll]

nothing like the smell of capitalism first thing in the morning

[celest maple]

this is a very serious threat

[swift trout]

oh you're thinking way ahead of me you're right

[arctic onyx]

also fancy water fountains

[gritty veldt]

dude i want to live in a HUT it’s gonna be garbage and i’m so excited

[opaque scroll]

Thanos cottagecore

[undone rover]

Maxing my CPS, carrots per second

[little shadow]

Saaame I’m going for an off the grid natural house

[undone rover]

Mud house

[arctic onyx]

imma max out my pumpkin farming before Halloween

[forest cairn]

I wonder if the devs are going to leave the economy up to us? Like, if you want to get pelt without becoming a hunter yourself, buy it from someone who is a hunter.

[prime cradle]

You have a point. What if we could just have ULTIMATE camping. Just tents.

[arctic onyx]

and then sell them, i will be rich

[gritty veldt]

not gonna lie i was mad jealous of his digs

[swift trout]

first thing to max is the breathing skill for sure

[arctic onyx]

i love me some capitalism in my video games

i will start a monopoly on pumpkins

[opaque scroll]

IM SAYING! i was like, yo he did his job, now he gets to just chill and live off the land? life goals

[storm pebble]

duel wield axe talent spec x2 TPS

[rancid stump]

Hardcore agriculture

[undone rover]

Gotta get a head start with pre alpha and make a monopoly

[distant lintel]

Just funny how devs from Blizzard (WoW) and Riot (LoL) making game without attacking other players with swords and lazers

[sly ice]

Sup folks.

[brisk ivy]

I wonder if every tree can be chopped. Imagine launch day and every tree gets chopped.

[opaque scroll]

Yo!

[arctic onyx]

working for a dev doesn't mean you have to share the same creative goals as them

[sly ice]

Looks like I'm late to the party. :) just learned of the game.

[little shadow]

I’m actually curious about this myself, particularly how long the respawn time on materials is

[opaque scroll]

it is kinda sad to see people leave riot tho. i really want that 2d fighter

[arctic onyx]

bro

[rancid stump]

You're just on time

[brisk ivy]

It would be a bloodbath. Of words though, because it's a social leaning game.

[arctic onyx]

you've seen rising thunder right?

[opaque scroll]

darius is nothing but command grabs and im here for it

[spice wyvern]

riots mmo and fighter are still in the works tho

[arctic onyx]

and arpg

[prime cradle]

New World lets you chop down trees real time (people can watch you). Then they respawn after a time. When the open alpha released for a few days, the world was deforested I was told.

[opaque scroll]

i have now

[summer lark]

i wish riot would make a game that works before they started making 3 other games :^)

[arctic onyx]

thr guys that made it got bought by riot and are the ones working on the fighting game

[brisk ivy]

I think I saw some footage of that. There was campfires everywhere.

[arctic onyx]

i got a sick vid about it if you want me to dm it?

[plush sleet]

YES

[opaque scroll]

PogU im so ready

[sly ice]

They are working on a mmo as well right?

[rancid stump]

It was awful, every resource even in the later areas were gone

[spice wyvern]

they need new devs for league lmao, their mobile game has better events and content than their main one

[arctic onyx]

league mobile is way better than league pc im sorry

[ocean hazel]

😅

[little shadow]

Yeah I’m curious if it’ll be like a relatively quick respawn for players to have easy access to mats or if it’ll be like AC where a tree grows in like 3 days or something

[arctic onyx]

the games are just way faster on mobile

[ocean hazel]

dont wanna say true but

[opaque scroll]

bro theres so much wrong with league. hard to even start that convo

[bright hornet]

I am so damn pumped for NW, played the preview and fell in love. Only Palia has gotten me this excited since

[summer lark]

I can't imagine what their code looks like. I'm sure it's become a disaster over the years lol

🍝

[sly ice]

I'm kind of interested in this game. I like it when devs break out of the norm.

[gritty veldt]

i don’t play league but i thought it was so funny when the mobile dropped and got really good reviews after all the sweats were like “it’s gonna suck”

[opaque scroll]

ive played 20 min games of wild rift, theyre the same length

[opaque scroll]

right? turns out its mad decent

[ocean hazel]

its a less complicated league right?

is like the entire premise

[opaque scroll]

bingo

[spice wyvern]

probably the reason why the content is so dry, so much spaghetti it'll break if they add one more bush

[arctic onyx]

characters level faster and everything

[distant lintel]

I guess I am not really grasping what this game really is.. I am getting the vibe it is more like a Second Life than say Guild Wars 2

[ocean hazel]

i mean regular league learning curve is crazy to be honest

[little shadow]

I wish I could talk about league things but the only league I play now is tft 🥲

[opaque scroll]

thats the moba genre in a nutshell tbh

[arctic onyx]

they need to rebuild league from the ground up

[summer lark]

Yee I assume so. Fair enough though. It's been a really fun game for like, 10 years

[rancid stump]

Time for league 2

[arctic onyx]

i play the card game waaaay more than pc league

[prime cradle]

Do y'all consider S6 to be indie? I feel like it could in that they have an official discord... but they have some people who worked on high-profile games. I feel like the term indie is more reserved for companies who barely got any backing at all. Thoughts?

[little shadow]

League: Classic

[ocean hazel]

thats like wild rift

exactly what rift is

[opaque scroll]

my biggest gripe with league is access to information. dota literally gives you everything you could ever need, whenever you need it. its much harder than league, but the ease of access to info makes it better for newer player imho

[ocean hazel]

yea the players made it complicated which is good and bad

[distant lintel]

Smite > LoL

[rancid stump]

Indie is for companies that aren't being published by big publishers like ea

[arctic onyx]

you don't need to know a thing if you just use blitz 🤓

[ocean hazel]

thats untrue i would say

[sudden rain]

it's very much indie, unless we get further information about the private company investments in the industry

[arctic onyx]

very untrue

[sudden rain]

there's plenty of indie games these days with financial backing and certified discord servers

i'm in a discord server for another game that was funded off kickstarter, they're also discord official

[ocean hazel]

take freezing/waves for example, i have little doubt that riot ever thought there would be a way to complicate a core concept

[little shadow]

I feel like I’d classify them as an independent studio and not indie. They’ve got a team of 50+ folks + 15m$ in funding from VC so I think they’re def above indie status in my mind

[opaque scroll]

that ans league is just missing so much of the basics. in dota if you dont know what a character does, you can just go into the main menu, find them in the heroes tab and then read literally everything about them, while in game still. league doesnt even give you the fine details of what a champ does unless youre playing them

[rancid stump]

I'd say triple A indie devs

[opaque scroll]

dont even get me started on the death recap. its like league doesnt even have one its so bad

[prime cradle]

Right but big names don't seem to have official discords. Only those with small pools, backed by kickstarter, started off solo before being picked up by like Crytivo, etc.

[ocean hazel]

once again like a good and bad thing

[arctic onyx]

we need more comprehensive character sheets like super smash bros

[ocean hazel]

players can find stuff out but it takes forever

[sudden rain]

i think that's more a result of them not using discord as a community building/advertising tool, personally, so i wouldn't use it as a criteria?

[prime cradle]

Yeah, that's what I was trying to put into words!

[opaque scroll]

its so inaccessable it just makes it hard for new people to get into the game unless they have friends who already play. its just not doable as a new player

its sad, really

we are pretty off topic tho, lets circle back to how pog this game is

[ocean hazel]

I mean the most ranked and/or normal games are people that care too much or dont care enough as well

[gritty veldt]

i don’t play league so idk but i do want to add that riots descriptions of agents abilities and how to use them in valorant is,,,, lacking lol but i’m also just really bad at the game

[little shadow]

I’m struggling to find a way to word it too lolol I was gonna say “junior studio” but that sounds silly so independent studio it is 😂

[opaque scroll]

all i want from Palia is a sick farm, and dragons that help me maintain it

[pliant osprey]

Hi!

[opaque scroll]

thatd be pretty pogchamp

[prime cradle]

Tiny helper dragons.

[arctic onyx]

i wanna start a library

[sour gorge]

What makes you think a chill game is going to have dragons.

[rancid stump]

Like those mobile game ads with the level 1 dragon

[prime cradle]

Dragon in your oven. Dragons lighting your lamps.

[arctic onyx]

that's all i want 😭

[spice wyvern]

i just want to throw pebbles with einar at people

[sudden rain]

the true wish fulfillment fantasy: having as many books as i want

[plush sleet]

Same

[bright hornet]

Dragon fast travel system? They carry little gondolas or something :3

[ocean hazel]

true wish fulfillment fantasy: having every discord badge possible

[sour gorge]

Stop with the dragons its so stupid

[lavish remnant]

Dragondola

[arctic onyx]

dragons are sick

[gritty veldt]

idk i’m still stuck on the tiney dragon concept

[prime cradle]

Look up Little Dragons Cafe game

[sour gorge]

If you want dragons go to a game that has them

This community is getting worse

[arctic onyx]

dragons don't have to be angry monsters

why not friendly dragons?

[bright hornet]

maybe a tiny...flock? of little dragons pick you up and carry you away :P

[distant lintel]

Can I obtain a 4 str 4 stam leather belt?

[gritty veldt]

we don’t know if palia has them or not,,,, and dragons can be friendly

[lavish remnant]

I mean they added yakmoos that are a yak and a cow, boulfs that are clearly wolves, you can't tell me they wouldnt add a hybrid of a dragon and something. lol

[gritty veldt]

o:

[opaque scroll]

what makes you think it wont? with a fantasy setting having tameable dragons is doable

[little shadow]

dragon bees 🤔 👀

[prime cradle]

I'd like a game with purely benevolent dragons. Tired of villain dragons.

[bright hornet]

I second that!

[dry zodiac]

dragon tales 😄

[opaque scroll]

PogU great ideas

[lavish remnant]

idk how that would work, but I would be willing to see it.

[gritty veldt]

i grew up on that lol

[sour gorge]

Just stop. Dont at me anymore. Im done with you. You’re just annoying the hell out of me

[ocean hazel]

too many dragons

what about dragons being special

[sudden rain]

i know that someone mentioned magic books earlier, has magic been confirmed in this game as like..a thing for player characters?

[arctic onyx]

igneel from fairytail was a homie

[ocean hazel]

and not so everyday

[bright hornet]

I was hyped for a game called Scalebound :(

I haven't looked too much into Palia yet, will there be any kinds of mounts? I'd love a lil horse or boar or something to ride on

[mortal hull]

Bruh, what if we get dungeons in Palia, but instead of killing mobs and bosses, we magically grow plants to help us pass through the place. In some sort of action pact platformer where you grow plants and catch fish and stuff

[little shadow]

Let’s not attack each other in chat please. Having a difference in interests doesn’t make someone bad

[lavish remnant]

Still think we need to normalize Salamanders. Don't have enough of those in fantasy games.

[opaque scroll]

youre just giving pessimistic responses bro, like idk what you want from me

[bright hornet]

YOOOOO That's a really good idea!

[lone scarab]

I like plants

[gritty veldt]

i’m pretty sure there will be!! they just don’t wanna give spoilers on what it could be exactly

[prime cradle]

I 2nd this. More salamanders that also have nothing to do with fire. Because they always seem to do in games I play.

[opaque scroll]

you could grow your own tools to solve dungeons? sick idea

[sudden rain]

some sort of environmental interaction options like this would be super cool

[arctic onyx]

how about we feed the monsters to our plants 👁️

[lavish remnant]

oh man the canceling of scalebound was a huge bummer, I wanted to play that with the wife so bad.

[mortal hull]

Do some like 3 or 4 man dungeons where you have to platform and reach places at similar times and work together to clear things

[gritty veldt]

not at me replying to the wrong comment lmao sorry

[little shadow]

omg I would loooove lil water salamanders that blow lil bubbles 🥺

[bright hornet]

Lookin at you Runescape -.- Oooh salamander mounts that could also light campfires? Work as a portable light source?

[sudden rain]

i love both of these salamander ideas

[lavish remnant]

Salamander fast travel, lezgo.

[gritty veldt]

all the amphibians !!!

[bright hornet]

I know that's fire still buuuut still :3

[mellow verge]

I hope there will be really fun mounts

[opaque scroll]

arent komodo dragons just IRL poison salamanders?

[candid sky]

There should be fast travel events

[lavish remnant]

are komodo dragons poisonous? o.o

[little shadow]

they’re a dragon, it’s in the name

[opaque scroll]

salamanders are a kind of dragon are they not?

[sudden rain]

very, very mildly, and it's a more complicated process than normally thought?

[dry zodiac]

i think they got bacteria that messes you up if bitten?

[mellow verge]

Saliva bacteria can kill you

[prime cradle]

Palia, turns all the creatures people normally see as "evil" into things super cute. Spiders, snakes, etc.

[lavish remnant]

oh dam I didn't know that 😮

[bright hornet]

I want kiwi's in the game :3 imagine lil fluffy birbs

[little shadow]

Are they? I’m not v aware of dragon types honestly asking here

[lone scarab]

I want a little house spooder

[haughty elk]

Aquí representando el habla hispana xD algún latino

[opaque scroll]

as a fellow kiwi i second this

[prime cradle]

This is a myth that was disproved.

[lavish remnant]

Kinda, I guess you could call it an offshoot in the genetic line?

[candid sky]

I don’t think that’s a good idea lol don’t want children who play the game thinking that dangerous animals are safe 😅

[sudden rain]

so the mythical salamander is a fire spirit so they're sort of connected in that way? but they don't have scales XD

[bright hornet]

And for no reason at all, they fly. Hahahaha

[dry zodiac]

needs shoebills and cassowaries

[opaque scroll]

i believe salamander (on a large scale) are just a subgenre of dragon. like drakes and wyverns

[mellow verge]

Well tbf any untreated bite can lead to infection

[prime cradle]

Not all snakes and spiders are dangerous. A small minority is.

[opaque scroll]

yes please

[arctic onyx]

i want to fly around on a celestial frog and i want his name to be ted 🌚

[sudden rain]

lots of people keep snakes and spiders as pets irl, too, so

[lavish remnant]

Pretty sure a snake was trying to get it on with my hose yesterday.

[opaque scroll]

theyre only dangerous if youre dangerous

[gritty veldt]

i got a pet snakey:3

[lavish remnant]

That sounded lewder than I thought it would.

[chilly widget]

Hey there everybody

[dry zodiac]

spiders in game would have be pretty cute probably :<

[mellow verge]

Cute fuzzy jumping spiders

[dry zodiac]

know some people with arachnophobia that probably wouldn't want to see that

[candid sky]

But still it might influence a child to think all snakes are cute and cudly still doesn’t account for actual dangerous animals

[arctic onyx]

furry eight legged homies

[opaque scroll]

snaking into hoses these days are we?

[gritty veldt]

have you seen them with hats

[chilly widget]

A friend of mine shared the launch trailer with me and this looks like it could be an awesome game.

[bright hornet]

A whole buncha Lucas'????

[dry zodiac]

the furrier the better

[lavish remnant]

Spider Dragon

[prime cradle]

chopping down trees with an axe without the proper knowledge ain't the safest thing either but we aren't stopping the game from making that.

[candid sky]

Point being there should be actual dangerous animals after all if there’s going to be hunting don’t want ppl to feel bad for killing the cutest thing on earth

[sudden rain]

unless you live in like, maybe australia, this isn't a practical concern for most people and it's not really the responsibility of a video game to teach kids that? just let people have fun

[opaque scroll]

you seen Dota Dragons blood? something similar to the black dragon in that would be fuego

[lavish remnant]

Based on youtube videos, I can confirm this.

[lavish remnant]

I have not, been meaning to. lol

[hidden rampart]

If I shoot a boar with an arrow, can it gouge my eyes out

[sudden rain]

both is good! personally i get a kick out of killing even cute slime monsters though, so... 😅

[candid sky]

Yes lol

[hidden rampart]

Ok cool

[opaque scroll]

ngl its pretty good. i love the world building it brings to the game

[bright hornet]

I kinda want Dragon Quest monster faces...just...derp

[opaque scroll]

as long as your arrow doesnt gouge its eyes out

[lavish remnant]

I think we can all agree. Slimes.

[prime cradle]

YES

[opaque scroll]

YES

[arctic onyx]

hear me out, donkey but blue

[hidden rampart]

Monkeh make best arrows, but Monkeh can't aim

[candid sky]

I concur

[sudden rain]

i agree even more now that i play dnd

[lavish remnant]

Slimes have been a sleeper monster in gaming for to long, IT IS TIME FOR THE COMEBACK!

[viscid aurora]

monke

[sudden rain]

slimes are actually scary in dnd, who knew

[opaque scroll]

dont worry monke, that comes with practice

[bright hornet]

SUPER KAMI GURU SLIME

[viscid aurora]

spook

[opaque scroll]

utility slimes? pretty pog ngl

[candid sky]

Hunting slime yields jello

[lavish remnant]

I just realized they turned off external emojis, that's a bummer.

[opaque scroll]

yeah i wanted to use my ttv emotes lmao

[bright hornet]

Was wondering why I couldnt use my kitty :(

[gritty veldt]

hunting slime yields slime

[lavish remnant]

They don't have enough reactions to disable them!

Hunt slimes for 300 years to become lvl 99. 👀

[bright hornet]

Oooh....wonder if there'll be sailing <3

(sorry just saw valheim in my steam)

[little shadow]

I can still use them in other channels 🤷

[candid sky]

Sea serpents would be cooler

[undone rover]

Ah I see your a man of culture aswell

[lavish remnant]

oh you're right. Weird. o.o

[lone scarab]

Is it known if there will be any FPS locks ? Cause console porting or smth ?

[candid sky]

They plan on releasing on other platforms but I’m not sure about FPS locks ask in #❓│old-team-answers-pre-alpha

[lavish remnant]

To Your Eternity, I've been Killing Slimes, and the Saints Power is Omnipotent, are currently my weekly drug. lol

[candid hound]

I want to start the grind

[lone scarab]

Thank you 🙂

[prime cradle]

Did you ever play Ragnarok Online?

[opaque scroll]

i get that reference

[lavish remnant]

I did for a bit but not much, my wife probably knows a lot more about it

[opaque scroll]

those and "yeah im a spider, so what?" are my shows this season

[lavish remnant]

How. the. hell. Did I forget about spider!?!?!?

I am ashamed.

[opaque scroll]

because half the show is the good stuff and the other half is ResidentSleeper hero stuff

[lavish remnant]

True lol

[dry zodiac]

to your eternity is so good ><

[opaque scroll]

i want nothing but villain ascension arcs from now own

[lavish remnant]

It's a Feel Trip of Emotions.

[bright hornet]

Unpopular opinion, I'm really enjoying Boruto atm :P

[opaque scroll]

Overlord best anime

[lavish remnant]

season 2 soon yes?

[dry zodiac]

fruits basket + to your eternity mondays is a double whammy of feels

[feral shard]

hey, just found out about palia, looks pretty cool!

[opaque scroll]

honestly? as long as youre having a good time, thats what matters

[opaque scroll]

right? we're all so hyped to be slime farmers

[candid sky]

You would love slime rancher

[plush sleet]

SLIME FARMERS?

[bright hornet]

Ah Kirito. Of the Kirito is always right foundation.

[opaque scroll]

oh i already do

[dry zodiac]

there was another reincarnation isekai where MC was breeding slimes

i kinda want to live in his world

[candid sky]

Lol

[lavish remnant]

With the chuu/chaapa argument I do hope at one point we get to have a little community event where we vote on naming a random creature. lol

[mystic mesa]

The one about a witch at lvl 300?

[lavish remnant]

That was a fun one, laundry service powered by slimes. lol

[bright hornet]

Noooooo bad idea. Have you seen where that leads?

[lavish remnant]

shhhhhhh it's fiiiiiiiine

[opaque scroll]

that was the anime i referenced eariler. utility slimes sounds Pog af

[feral shard]

More lore is cool

[dry zodiac]

dude was a hard worker, just can't think of the name now T_T

[gritty veldt]

oh is that what it’s about ? the name of the little rat raccoon homie?

[lavish remnant]

ya

[little shadow]

I think it would be fun to have chu/chapaa be like “teams” for competitions (of whatever variety might exist)

[bright hornet]

95% chance it'll be CuteyMcCutesyFace or R18 XD

[candid sky]

If this game is going to be similar to botw than I want to be able to cut down a tree and send it flying with me on it 😤

[feral shard]

somewhat like an identity

[lavish remnant]

By the Grace of the Gods

[dry zodiac]

yesss, thank you

[little shadow]

Yeah, like pvp factions but less violent in nature lol

[dry zodiac]

cleaning slimes IRL would be amazing

[plush sleet]

I’m ready for a mmorpg without pvp sweats

[wooden widget]

@compact fern you cant change my god, I believe in the Glory of Chapaa and Einars Fertility.

[opaque scroll]

By the grace of the gods, is the slime homie anime

[feral shard]

yeah finally i can socialize without getting stabbed every five secs

[opaque scroll]

ohh i see it was found already

[little shadow]

like “chu vs chapaa: who can chop the most wood” events idk

[plush sleet]

Yup

[candid sky]

Or maybe something like where ppl in the game choose a team and there’s just pvp between the two groups just for laughs lol

[opaque scroll]

how much wood would a chapaa chuck if a chapaa could chuck would?

[compact fern]

@wooden widget lol

[opaque scroll]

doesnt have a good ring to it

im a chuu guy anyways

[wooden widget]

i got my eye on you stranger

[feral shard]

yeah and you'll be asked to pick chuu/chapaa before anything

[wooden widget]

the good one.

[feral shard]

EYY

[compact fern]

gnight for tonight lads

its half 3 in the morn lol

[bronze island]

Hii

[plush sleet]

Gib

[opaque scroll]

i did it for the orange name. fits my branding LUL

[lavish remnant]

I boosted to be purple pink cause im FABULOUS

[wooden widget]

Hmph you get a pass.

[opaque scroll]

goodnight!!

[lavish remnant]

XD

[candid sky]

Chuu vs. chapa is basically just brown vs. orange names

[clear sedge]

hello

chus

[celest maple]

Good night everyone love y'all

[clear sedge]

night is young

[grizzled granite]

GNIGHTTT!

[lavish remnant]

Yup good night everyone ttyl, see what kinda monster shenanigans y'all came up with when I wake up lol

[foggy marten]

Imagine all the joy one feels in the discord

Now realize that's only a fraction of the in game experience

[grizzled granite]

TAKE CAREE SLEEP WELL

[wooden widget]

The pro move would be to boost now... to level up the badge, but then again... i think i will lose the progress if it was somewhere else previously

[feral shard]

gn, sleep well

[undone rover]

[candid sky]

Goodnight to everyone except chuu enthusiasts 😤

[little shadow]

[gentle frost]

[undone rover]

🐛

[celest maple]

any moderator online? don’t want to ping all mods?

[undone rover]

Caterpillar

[feral shard]

you're making me think of betraying chuus

[little shadow]

don’t do it

[undone rover]

I'm playing both sides so I always come out on top

[wooden widget]

I recommend pinging the first that responded the last

[undone rover]

Birb

[errant flame]

i heard mod was needed

yessss

[candid sky]

Why you gotta be a sussy baka🤨⁉️⁉️⁉️

[wooden widget]

the birb has stolen deku heart and keep dropping it in loop style fashion, quickly assemble LEGO™️ Police station to prevent such criminal acts towards feelings

[celest maple]

@deku is the pre-alpha windows only or is it also available on macOS or linux? website just has “PC”

[undone rover]

Sussy baka

[errant flame]

I believe it's just PC? But I could be wrong. I'm not a developer so I wouldn't be able to tell you details like that

[gritty veldt]

#❓│old-team-answers-pre-alpha

someone just answered that (:

[undone rover]

I have ever gender role I just need the chapaa role and my collection will be complete

[celest maple]

@gritty veldt just saw yes, thanks everyone

[feral shard]

i guess pc will include mac and linux

[wooden widget]

#❓│old-team-answers-pre-alpha might have some answers, if not already responded in #❔│game-faqs but also they did #📢│palia-news that they will be doing it weekly doing a tally in Wednesday and revealing answers Thursday

[gritty veldt]

@undone rover is your pfp pitbull?

[undone rover]

Yes

[gritty veldt]

i mean uh mr. worldwide sorry

[fiery latch]

Does anyone know if the games is gonna be free or not?

[undone rover]

Nope

[gritty veldt]

i’m hoping but there is no definitive answer

[feral shard]

its probably free, but get ready to spend a few bucks ig🤷‍♂️

[fiery latch]

Rn all I have is 5$ ;-;

[wooden widget]

Applying the universal requirement for server costs and the general phrase if it is free, you are the product

[gritty veldt]

yeah i’m optimistic that it will be but if it’s not i won’t be surprised

[undone rover]

I want cat ears that I can buy for like 5$

[wooden widget]

but what if... hear me out Chapaa Ears for 7.5 and Chuu Ears for 20

[feral shard]

so chuu ears worth more?

[candid sky]

We must extort the chuu supporters and insert our own enthusiast lobbyists into the game

[wooden widget]

I mean Apple costs more than other brands...

[candid sky]

It would be cool if npcs in the game are either chuu or chapaa supporters as like a Easter egg

[wooden widget]

Sounds like a thing to drop in #game-suggestions

[patent dust]

as of now, they wont talk about monetization in any way. its too early.

[feral shard]

is there a estimation for beta release?

[wooden widget]

no matter how it ends up being, concept is nice, worth something for sure, there is speculation of Pre-Alpha but nothing else.

[patent dust]

only thing they will tell us is "soon™️"

[mellow verge]

[patent adder]

Me too, and I just got to work! 🥺

[lunar coyote]

Its not doing crowd funding?

[mellow verge]

I think they're mostly funded?

[lunar mural]

I wonder if the team will work on a different project in the future or only focus on Palia

[patent dust]

no crowdfunding, palia is fully funded. they raised $15 million

[mellow verge]

Kiratv had a video on it

[lunar coyote]

1 video said so. just kinda want to contribute in some way

raised already?

[patent dust]

it was raised already, yes :)

[lunar coyote]

hope theres a pet or taming skill

[plush sleet]

Same

[sour gorge]

Pets and mounts are something on their roadmap. They haven't given us any other information on them though @plush sleet @lunar coyote

[plush sleet]

Cool thanks for the info

[sour gorge]

No problem!

[devout aurora]

Raise chuu army, Zerg rush enemies

[plush sleet]

[lament citrus]

This game has a bit of a SAO feel to it

[plush sleet]

I said the same thing earlier today

[lunar mural]

Yeah but less combat

[candid sky]

Animal husbandry in the future would be cool like imagine just strolling a herd of 50 sheep down your neighborhoods street

[plush sleet]

Yup

[solar stratus]

Yeah they mostly have private funds already

[plush sleet]

I’m just hyped for a laid back mmorpg

[lunar mural]

Imagine if this game got VR. That would be awesome

[solar stratus]

Which is promising considering we've seen how Dreamworld went down kekw

[sour gorge]

they have like 16 million in funding.

[lunar mural]

I don’t think its rpg

But maybe idk

[devout aurora]

If Genshin and Mabinogi had a baby

[solar stratus]

It definitely is a roleplaying game

[patent dust]

ye 16m not 15, my bad lol

[candid sky]

That would be cool but if there’s going to be gliders it’ll be scary😭

[gritty veldt]

it doesn’t sound like it will based on what the devs have said

[plush sleet]

It’s part rpg because of the different skills

[sour gorge]

VR is already fairly friendly with Unreal, we could look into it. I know we have VR fans on the dev team, I mean, its the only way to play Elite Dangerous this is their stance on VR

[north inlet]

anyone heard how professions will work? Will we be able to do everything ourselves or will we be able to have friends/neighbors that specialize in certain things we can trade?

[patent dust]

its not an rpg, but it will have rp aspects. its a life-sim mmo

[gritty veldt]

omg realizing i read friendly as unfriendly when i initially read the document, feel free to ignore this

[lunar coyote]

I need a tiny little dragon pet glazing my creme brulee with fire breath

[plush sleet]

I’m gonna be a combat fisherman anyone wanna join me on my quest for becoming a fish overlord dm if you do

[lunar mural]

Bet

[north inlet]

bard tank here

[solar stratus]

I think with WoW and other games like that over the years kind of changed the way we view mmorpgs, remember that mmos were mostly community first and the game later

[lunar coyote]

Nice day for fishing aint it!!

[plush sleet]

It’s always a nice day for fishin

[lunar coyote]

Huh ha

[sour gorge]

the devs have said the term RPG doesn't really fit their game though

[devout aurora]

Imagine Einar skipping pebbles across the lake

[cyan basin]

Einar would never throw away a gift!

[lunar coyote]

Have you seen Baelins route, UAM

[solar stratus]

It would seem so, I'll still be playing nonetheless because it looks pretty cool

[lunar mural]

Ikr

[candid sky]

If you can grind skill points in this game I’m going to grind nothing but jump so I can leap forever

[sour gorge]

https://tenor.com/view/morshing-fishning-mornishing-fishorning-gif-19863131

[flat sandal]

RPG just means Roleplaying Game

[sour gorge]

I know. Im just pointing out what the devs have said.

[feral shard]

it is sorta but maybe theres less lore than say wow

[sour gorge]

They've described it as a Life-Sim MMO

[lunar coyote]

We role play ourselves

[feral shard]

yeah but with a twist

[clear wraith]

Cozy Life-Sim MMO

[devout aurora]

@candid sky in Trickster Online I had a toon that only leveled up the weight stat and all xp gain was done with the card battle system lol. I was the ultimate pack mule

[feral shard]

its the game where YOU make the story instead of being pushed into a storyline

[sour gorge]

The lore actually sounds interesting. Humans randomly vanished and have magically reappear after a very long time away. I think Elves are the only other current race besides the Golem we've seen.

[solar stratus]

It's hard to decipher what rpg really means tbh because essentially we'll all be roleplaying right? So wouldn't that make it an mmorpg life-sim? I wouldn't know though, just throwing my thoughts out there haha

[zinc plaza]

the fun bit is that you can just play solo, it dosnt seem like you need to rely on anyone

[patent adder]

Yeah! But you're welcome in my neighborhood😄

[solar stratus]

Yeah I believe that's true as well, can be a solo past time game to hop on and enjoy

[sour gorge]

well it's not the typical one which is why they've said it doesn't fit their game. We've already know what to expect from an RPG game. Like WoW or Skyrim.

[feral shard]

can i join lmao

[sour gorge]

None of those games really have the life-sim elements like this does.

[feral shard]

centaurs should exist

[patent adder]

Of course!

[feral shard]

:D

[solar stratus]

Yeah it's definitely a new idea to the genre and I hope it helps us see that mmorpgs don't have to be like WoW and the likes

[sour gorge]

Who knows. They've only talked about humans and elves.

[sour gorge]

it is and i think thats why people are excited. It's different.

[rancid cedar]

So pumped for this game

[feral shard]

true, and they also need to make lore on WHY the humans disappeared

[solar stratus]

Concidering that this the first game to provide this concept of an mmo life-sim, I'm very curious to see how people will mess with the player market XD

[clear wraith]

That's why I am so excite for this game.

[sour gorge]

I'm sure they will. There is a story for the game as well.

says your perspective on the story will change depending on what the NPC is willing to tell you since you can become friends with each NPC

[feral shard]

if you ever heard of skyblock, people always complain about the prices

[patent adder]

Everyone will be welcome... As long as you're wholesome 😄

[solar stratus]

Haha yeah

[fossil cedar]

espero con ansias este juego! 😄

[plush sleet]

I hope this game has a good community when it launches

[sour gorge]

It will. Everyone here is extremely cool and nice

[solar stratus]

Already does and the game isn't even out yet

[plush sleet]

I know

[bright hornet]

Did you just... VLDL us?

[feral shard]

yeah, let's hope not a lot of jerks join

[solar stratus]

Headed in the right direction

And every community will have the toxic peeps, even ffxiv can't escape those players

[patent adder]

Yah, we'll be good. Discord I think is a good representation of the community!

[swift trout]

will i be able to become monkey

[soft geyser]

just be nice

[plush sleet]

Yeah

[final loom]

I think i finally made it 🙂

[swift trout]

glad you made it

Im excited to play a game that puts creation above destruction

[lunar coyote]

Huh ha!

[patent dust]

same here! its a nice change of pace

[bright hornet]

Yknow what, It IS a nice day for fishing!

[feral shard]

this. This. a game that puts creation will get a wholesome community

[indigo dust]

its been so long since ive actually wanted to play a game

[rapid oracle]

Oh, my english is very bad

[queen viper]

https://tenor.com/view/excited-so-yes-yay-yey-gif-14483671

[drowsy jolt]

Yes i am , question raid other homes?

[fathom wharf]

Anyone know if it'll be VR capable?? 🤤

[patent adder]

I'm glad you're excited for it ☺️

[solar stratus]

Don't sweat it, your english is very good!

[paper umbra]

True

[clear sedge]

some at ff14? 😦

[lunar coyote]

I think we all can have our imagination run wild at this point @fathom wharf 😄

[rapid oracle]

😂 I know 5-6 words for english ahah

[solar stratus]

Raiding homes doesn't seem to be a feature but you can invite friends over to help build/visit

[lunar coyote]

hey I'm a FF 14 -3 player here

[solar stratus]

Hi I play ffxiv on the primal data center

[gritty veldt]

it’s something they’re willing to consider in the future!! some of the devs really like vr so that’s working in its favor

[feral shard]

building could be exlploited

[clear sedge]

im just lvl 14 haha

who want to play lollolo

[fathom wharf]

Fingers 🤞 crossed

[lunar coyote]

building EXPLODES?

[solar stratus]

Perhaps that is why you only invite the homies over

[lunar coyote]

Michael Bay Palia

[feral shard]

exploited, aka abused

[feral shard]

ah yes ofc

[fathom wharf]

Awesome!

[stoic yoke]

I'm really looking forward to a wholesome community. One time on WOW, I had gotten the most disgusting and vulgar message all because I didn't want to duel.... Ever since then, I've wanted a game like what Palia is presenting itself as. Thank goodness for no PVP.

[solar stratus]

Because I'm only inviting over my irl homies to my palia establishment

[sour gorge]

you have to allow someone to build and what not in your house i believe

right now it's not in the game though. only you can build on your plot.

[lunar coyote]

was this game announced only a week ago? And we have 20k ppl here already?

[solar stratus]

Yeah that's WoW community for you..

[sour gorge]

3 days ago

[cyan basin]

5 days

[patent adder]

That's rough. I'm sorry, I hope you have fun here! ☺️

[sour gorge]

it was announced on the 3rd

today is the 6th

[solar stratus]

It's been 3 days!? Jeez time flew

[feral shard]

sad, hopefully this will turn out different

[bright hornet]

And that's the people who felt like joining the disc, I wonder how many people have actually signed up!

[gritty veldt]

i think for now other people can help you build things, but can’t like ,,, place things in your house?? trying to remember what the doc said lol

[feral shard]

just joined this morning and felt like a week lmao

[lunar coyote]

I guess we all want the game to be huge and success, so, sadly the bad apples will also exist

[drowsy jolt]

It is a pity, it would be very good if you can as in the rust

[faint dawn]

I think if it'll be possible, I'm going to go complete Pacifist in Palia... not even Game hunt....

[elfin scarab]

not fast enough i wanna play lmao

[solar stratus]

I'm just waiting for New Genesis this week and then Palia is next on the list if I get access to prealpha

[distant horizon]

Wow, I am amazed with how many people there are here.

[crisp shadow]

Is it evening, late night, or early morning for you?

[solar stratus]

Unfortunately this game doesn't have that type of gameplay so it may not be for you

[patent adder]

Yeah it's a great time 🥳

[elfin scarab]

late night ish

[bright hornet]

Im so gonna be gathering my butt off. If there's woodcutting, mining exp you can get, gimme gimme

[sour gorge]

this is what it says Land Share? In the alpha this won't be possible, no. You can visit a friend's plot and help them build their building though.

[lunar coyote]

last time I was excited about a game was Ashes of Creation. Kicked started it and then dindn't hear much about the game....

all hype died

[solar stratus]

They still post on their yt I think

[sour gorge]

well this game isn't being kickstarted so no worry there

[feral shard]

yeah

[patent adder]

Gather all of the things 🤩

[bright hornet]

Ya seen New World then? :P

[sour gorge]

there is all those and more @bright hornet

[shell crest]

👋

[feral shard]

where did you yet that from?

[bright hornet]

ALL THE THINGS!

[solar stratus]

Yeah generally bigger communities will tend to have some bad apples

[feral shard]

ello!

[solar stratus]

I can guarantee there will be gatekeepers

[feral shard]

ah ok, thanks

[sour gorge]

No problem

[bright hornet]

Hehehehhehe ooooh so this will be the chill version of nw for me :P

[sleek marsh]

Ahh, I'm so excited to play this game and make Palia friends!

[sour gorge]

yep haha this is a very chill game. hunting, fishing, cooking, woodcutting,mining,etc.

[crisp shadow]

It's late for me, but I'm waiting to see if the raccoon comes back tonight. It should show up in the next 90 minutes.

[bright hornet]

Wonder if it'll have awesome fishing music like other rpg's have had :P

[gritty veldt]

give it a little pspspspsspsps

[solar stratus]

Are you going to pet it

[sour gorge]

I hope it has a good soundtrack all together lol

and I hope it gets added to spotify

[crisp shadow]

Mining? If you could actually dig a mine tunnel it would be interesting.

[bright hornet]

This is always true ofc, But I always loved Dark Cloud 2's fishing theme <3

[bright hornet]

build supports, put in lanterns?

[feral shard]

maybe not, maybe there's just a spot where ores are visible and once you mine it it regenerates

[crisp shadow]

It's rather dangerous to pet the wild ones.

[bright hornet]

like RS, WoW etc?

[feral shard]

yeah

[gritty veldt]

ye that’s how botw and genshin do it too

[feral shard]

mine tunnels would be very disruptive to the environment

[swift trout]

will there be gliding tho

[bright hornet]

Gonna be so cool if there is natural mines or something though, pre-established mine shafts and the like

[sour gorge]

they've said they have a unique way of doing the resources but have yet to go in depth

[plush sleet]

Yeah let’s hope that’s not a thing

[gritty veldt]

yes

[swift trout]

oh yes

[sour gorge]

gliding is actually shown in the trailer

[cyan basin]

speaking of mining, I really, really hope they do something like GW2 where everybody can mine the same node, or chop the same tree, with a long-ish respawn rate

[sour gorge]

towards the end

[swift trout]

i am a monkey i didnt see that

[crisp shadow]

I like the gliding.

[soft bane]

[sour gorge]

yes like how Runescape did with their mining/smithing overhaul @cyan basin

[swift trout]

it totally is

[bright hornet]

That was so good!! I came back after that and was blown away!

[sour gorge]

the nodes are infinite for mining.

[solar stratus]

Same thing is in ffxiv as well! Everyone shares the same nodes

[cyan basin]

No lode stealing that way, no conflict, everybody gets along

[crisp shadow]

I want to climb the highest mountain and then see how far I can glide.

[bright hornet]

Pleeeease Palia! :D

[feral shard]

Yeah

[sour gorge]

exactly.

[bright hornet]

Oooh but @crisp shadow what if theres stamina?

[swift trout]

no conflict, only cozy

[feral shard]

lets hope that even if the game gets big, the community is mostly nice

[sour gorge]

and yes! it's so much better than OSRS. Having to sit there wwaiting for the node to respawn

[cyan basin]

No health/energy they have said

[spice wyvern]

i hope more lore is released 😩

[bright hornet]

A game this wholesome SURELY has to be kept lovely

[crisp shadow]

Then half of my glide will be straight down. 🙂

[sour gorge]

there is no stamina. They removed it cause they didnt like it

[bright hornet]

The os purists annoy me. Yes RS3 is easier, but so? XD

[paper umbra]

noice

[bright hornet]

Well there we go! Mepper we want those stats asap! :P

[half granite]

If it doesn't... we'll make it be :3

[bright hornet]

AGGRESSIVE WHOLESOMENESS

[sour gorge]

just wish Jagex would lighten up on the mtx stuff

[solar stratus]

I think that's why they don't like RS3 progress is because it doesn't feel like a challenge to them

[patent adder]

aggressively friendships

[bright hornet]

Yeah I reckon Sub or MTX not both.

[wooden widget]

:|

[half granite]

aggressively sends love and shiny pebbles

[wooden widget]

This is Chaos, utter chaos, I will see myself downstairs.

[bright hornet]

I can see that actually, but it also streamlines a lot of things :P

[sour gorge]

yep exactly. Except maybe for pets and what not I think is fine.

[bright hornet]

friendship friendship friendship friendship

[cyan basin]

Just remember, even when there are trolls or downers or nay-sayers, we need to treat them kindly, to keep the community wholesome.

[paper umbra]

aggresively slaps you with wholesomness

[sour gorge]

OSRS is just too much of a chore tbh

[loud axle]

They get flowers.

[cyan basin]

especially the trolls, never feed the trolls, you know they will start showing up in just about a week or so

[crisp shadow]

For me, enjoyment doesn't translate into beating someone else, but contests can still be fun.

[bright hornet]

Thank you! I have the time and I still dont wanna do it :P I got 99 cooking and that was enough

[feral shard]

Yeah, as long as it doesn't get toxic

[patent adder]

Wait that's too much wholesome 🥺

[solar stratus]

Very true, if I were to play RS, it'd be RS3

[bright hornet]

ARC Whatd you do!

[paper umbra]

https://tenor.com/view/the-muppets-kermit-the-frog-smh-shake-my-head-no-gif-4883582

[sour gorge]

lol. I need to get back into playing RS. I may start a new account tbh. get that freshness going since it's been so long since I've played

[loud axle]

You should see some of the questions asked in #❓│old-team-answers-pre-alpha... Yesterday someone asked if they'd be able to make a character with "big milkers" and I shit you not a Dev responded "Sorry no cows at this time"

[bright hornet]

Plus the combat now actually feels like an mmo now instead of...idk Turn Based? XD

[loud axle]

I spit out my drink

[feral shard]

im gonna go for an exam now, nice talking to yall!

[sour gorge]

lol

[half granite]

Being respectful is good, even more towards those who aren't nice to you

[bright hornet]

You too! Good luck!

[gritty veldt]

good luck !!

[half granite]

Good luck with that and take a good break after

[bright hornet]

I'm astounded by how many cool people are here :3

[cyan basin]

Yep, if there is something a troll hates its not being able to piss off someone, they quickly give up and go away

[paper umbra]

yall wanna join my zoom call

[patent adder]

There are at least two!

[bright hornet]

Ya'll are dope

[paper umbra]

just kidding

[bright hornet]

:O That's more than one!

[sour gorge]

Also in case the new people haven't seen it. the Devs are going to be doing a weekly Q&A on Thursdays. Questions will be picked out on Wednesdays

[glacial fjord]

i think its going to be interesting seeing people from all sorts of communities and games together for this. so far it sounds like this game will definitely revolutionize the gaming community.

[long bluff]

This game feels like reverse Shadowrun to me. not dystopian, humans are the new thing

[crisp shadow]

Sunlight turns trolls into stone, right?

[cyan basin]

of course, I'm going to be on the road this thursday sigh

[loud axle]

For sure. The type of game it's aiming to be is going to create a very unique community as well.

[bright hornet]

Idk I go outside and set on fire

[solar stratus]

Yeah but I think the turn base had a certain charm to it as well ngl

[sour gorge]

yeah its actually refreshing to not have the Humans be the race that is running everything.

Instead it's elves.

[half granite]

Ikr?
I myself am from a very friendly and wholesome community, so clashing with other kinds of people is really interesting! (In a nice way of course)

[bright hornet]

Definitely for nostalgia, but even with FF im glad they ventured into free flow

[gritty veldt]

hoomans are the little babies re-emerging from whatever

[bright hornet]

Huh wasn't aware of that, that's really cool!

[half granite]

We're like endangered species or something no?

[loud axle]

I just hope you're all ready for passive-aggressive judgment on your homes and yards...

[sour gorge]

Humans randomly disappeared and have magically come back

[cyan basin]

they thought we had vanished and gone extinct

[sour gorge]

We dont know more than that

[bright hornet]

Damn we're like a disease :P

[lunar coyote]

I was pondering about picking up UO again before discovering this game

[bright hornet]

Or that one annoying noise you hear at like 2am

[gritty veldt]

mosquito

[crisp shadow]

The trailer said humans were waking up and appearing. No info on where they were for all the many years.

[wooden widget]

Might be dad comin from the ciggy store

[soft bane]

[loud axle]

At the end of the trailer there's a big broken circular object of some kind, speculation is that it was the portal humans left Palia using...

[half granite]

Little did they know that our love for chuus, chappas and wholesome robots could bring us back from the dead

[solar stratus]

Indeed!

[patent adder]

We sleep 😴

[bright hornet]

He better have 15 years worth of ciggys on em :P

[bright hornet]

Hopefully not some sort of Cryo event like other games

[sour gorge]

and like 80 gallons of milk

[glacial fjord]

i found out this game from asmongold reacting to it, his reaction to it is the way some people think. while i myself love wow, i grew up on animal crossing. a combo of those games sounds amazing to me

[cyan basin]

well, they did say 'thousands of years' and they did say that Einar is 3000, so he might remember us

[wooden widget]

Would you look at that, Ciggy Merchant he is and now you are both rich cause he shares the wealth, what great dad.

[plush sleet]

Palia is going to be a very poggers game

[swift trout]

yes

[bright hornet]

I like you. Popo approves.

[half granite]

furiously starts scribbling lore

[edgy steeple]

i found about this game from a news article

[bright hornet]

Ha same!

[swift trout]

me too

[wooden widget]

Puh-poh-police, aint none who you might be looking here nu-uh

[half granite]

A friend was talking about it so I came here now

[bright hornet]

It was lead with a blurb about it being from ex-blizzard/riot devs and focused on making pies. I was sold.

[cyan basin]

They also said they started with the lore when they started programming, so its been going on for 3 years

[gritty veldt]

a friend talked about it and now all the homies have applied for pre alpha lol

[loud axle]

Wonder if the bee system is going to be super fleshed out. 👀

[glacial fjord]

i wonder if in a way like the sims there will be kids you can have too, idk thatd be cool to me

[gritty veldt]

i hope so bc i would love bees in any capacity

[half granite]

That's quite a long time... I have no idea how long it takes to program a game so-

[loud axle]

Bees get requested like 50 times a day. Wouldn't be surprised if at this point you can breed whole colonies.

[cyan basin]

5 years for an mmo is pretty standard

[half granite]

What's y'all looking forward the most in the game?

[bright hornet]

Big ol chubby fluffy bee mount?

[gritty veldt]

they said kids is something they’re considering, it will be implemented down the line if there’s interest

[loud axle]

No combat PvP.

[half granite]

Yikes

[bright hornet]

ROBO KID

[swift trout]

need the cozyness in my life

[cyan basin]

COOKING MY GARDEN PRODUCE!

[crisp shadow]

It seems a lot of people knew about it before the big announce day. I would've liked to jump in much earlier.

[half granite]

yikes
Agreed tho xd

[soft bane]

they said they already have 3 years, so 2 more to final release tho? the team looks very good so dont think they will delay to longer than that

[glacial fjord]

definitely, or you can marry npcs/maybe your friends too

[bright hornet]

Iiiima get me a robobaby

[gritty veldt]

wholesome homie moments uwu

[patent adder]

Big bunny mounts, Lady Fluffsworth and Sir Hoppington 😆

[bright hornet]

Exploring yet another brand new world :3

[cyan basin]

No, they also said that alpha is expected to be months, not years, 5 is average, but these guys have spent decades making mmos, shorter is understandable

[patent dust]

"While I can't give any specific dates, I can assure you that we are much closer than 3 years from launch."

[bright hornet]

With ears so big they flop over the eyes

[swift trout]

i'm gonna chill so hard on this game

[half granite]

I really wonder if we can have lots of kinds of materials, and craftings, and food recipes, and I want a cat too

[soft bane]

Not said prealpha will have 2 years lol, i said probably final release in 2 years

[patent adder]

Heck yeah!

[loud axle]

It's also not like everything needs to be fully fleshed out in the beginning.

[bright hornet]

So basically New World is coming out....to tide me over till Palia... sweet. Sorted.

[glacial fjord]

the chill things on mmos sound the most fun to me, the most memorable moments are the chill ones

[loud axle]

As long as the basics are there, there's a ton of room for expansion in the future.

[bright hornet]

When ya all messing around being numpties

[crisp shadow]

I'd like to raise pets. Rare pets that can only be found in the far corners of the world.

[patent adder]

Me too Zaeius 😋

[cyan basin]

Check out the sticky in the 'ask the team' they talk about timeline there. I was just trying to give info in response to 'I don't know how long mmos take to program' when talking about 3 years of lore planning. Sorry if I have confused anyone

[clear wraith]

I wanna see how many things I can hug and/or pet

[glacial fjord]

so do you guys know if we are just going to be humans, or will we also be able to be the elfish looking races or the cat people

[bright hornet]

Oooh like hybrids??/

[soft bane]

Yes, almost all mmos goes down to hack and slash, kill stuff and take. Most dont even have minimum social interaction more. You just queue in some wierd game mode and that.

[errant flame]

I cannot wait to follow the "can you pet the dog in palia" tweets that come out 😤

[patent dust]

elves are a work in progress, but onyl humans for now

[crisp shadow]

Big MMOs can easily take 5 years of coding.

[cyan basin]

^^

[clear wraith]

Also feed everyone

[patent adder]

Hopefully lots ☺️

[half granite]

Can I pet chuus?

[bright hornet]

All the things. Even other people.

[glacial fjord]

maybe there will be tag, or fun small things like that that really make mmos

[bright hornet]

That almost sounds like a reaaally bad pick up line. Like "Hey can I pet chu?"

[half granite]

Two player emotes/reactions sounds interesting too

[patent dust]

its difficult to sync, but it would be amazing

[bright hornet]

Paper Scissors Rock better be first. Then Hi 5. Then hugs.

[clear wraith]

Wonder if it's gonna be like Spiritfarer where you can hug everyone but only once a day

[soft bane]

i want my pointed hair and my black cat and keeping saying to people im a mage even magic dont exist in the game, haha

[glacial fjord]

imvu has that, what are other games like that does anyone know

[half granite]

Lol I'm too tired to think that far, sorry

[cyan basin]

remember, mindless speculation is good, but manage your expectations, they have to save things for after release, and they don't want to become a star citizen

[wooden widget]

I wonder hows the Yacht

[glacial fjord]

hey you can probably have your own mage cottage

[patent dust]

oo two person emotes could be done up like how portal 2 does it! that would be fantastic

[radiant zenith]

I hope that we can do crafting and sell our goods to other players, that'd be pretty sweet I think 🙂

[soft bane]

Dont say the forbidden mmo name. Its give bad luck.

[soft bane]

I will have an entire mage college

[bright hornet]

Winterhold comes

[gritty veldt]

there is a trading system, no details on it yet tho 👀

[half granite]

I play sky: children of the light, it's quite a cute game and we can have some interactions with friends, like hug, holding hands (and dragging them around), piggyback, play fight, etc

[glacial fjord]

i just hope i dont screw up my cottage like i did my island on animal crossing. i wanted it to be so cute and yes its 5 stars but its chaotic
