[worldly lily]

Just please do not tease us and delay the startup to next year or at least let us know there will be major delays 😦

[arctic onyx]

some currency and extra mats?

[umbral ferry]

It can mean that for me at least. Because I associate more annoyance with the game over time

[wild raptor]

How can I play the game? 🙂

[paper wing]

wait until release, most likely

[proven temple]

It hasn't been released yet.

[thorny dune]

I literally just asked you to DM me so I could read and you're saying I'm dismissing it. I said earlier I'm not arguing for or against login rewards or other systems like it. When it was initially mentioned the person said Login rewards = game is garbage

[celest maple]

nobody knows

[little silo]

Brb gotta drive

[brisk ivy]

The GW2 style I don't mind too much, other than it rewarding multiple account holders. I quit GW2 for like a year and didn't really lose any sleep over daily login rewards.

[wild raptor]

Hmm, but they don't let us play yet? Isn't on alpha?

[proven temple]

Not yet ^

[maiden nymph]

with a lot of fantasy and imagination .... until the pre-alpha actually starts 😂

[celest maple]

I'm looking forward to playing

[maiden canopy]

Hello

[lofty tiger]

Daily rewards will turn Palia into a competitive content. Is the goal to make this game relaxing

[worldly lily]

Most betas I have played give you tons of freebies during each phase then as there is wipes take it all away

[paper wing]

pre-alpha, and it hasn't opened yet. Additionally, they are only selecting 1,400 for the test

[arctic onyx]

as long as the login rewards are predictable and don't invoke fomo, then who cares really

[celest maple]

hi

[maiden canopy]

I managed to rise early this morning despite lack of sleep

[wild raptor]

How do I apply to the pre-alpha? 😄

[umbral ferry]

Ok, theres a good way to do login rewards actually

[maiden nymph]

via the webpage 🙂

[celest maple]

in the website

[thorny dune]

As soon as someone says it's provably terrible they don't provide sources though 🙂

[proven temple]

Go to their website, submit your e-mailadress.

[umbral ferry]

#1 You get certain rewards each day
#2 if you don't login in a day, you get the rewards of that day and all other days you didn't login on the next day you login

[celest maple]

https://palia.com/

[bright forge]

Logging mechanic is almost always a free to play thing I don't know a good paid MMO that have them.

[faint dawn]

Make sure to do the survey

[worldly lily]

May I suggest if a person gets in on Betas they get like a different color name or title that moves into the open game to show they helped out

[celest maple]

https://palia.com/ here

[wild raptor]

Thank you 🙂

[celest maple]

n.n

[proven temple]

Probably should mention this in the #game-suggestions channel (:

[wispy wyvern]

Back again. Sorry for slow response @regal swallow took the rehab dogs out on a walk.

[arctic onyx]

that's what genshin does

[umbral ferry]

New to me

[regal swallow]

No need for apologies the chat is always here!

[celest maple]

you can play with your friends or no?

[arctic onyx]

Idk cuz rn I have this new player login thing and it can let me claim all the stuff i missed

[bright forge]

It's MMo so yes

[thorny dune]

Should be able to

[proven temple]

Yes. It's a social mmo.

[void imp]

later yes, but in the testing phase you might not get in

[celest maple]

😦

[brisk ivy]

Oh, I like it when games let me catch-up daily stuff that I've missed. 12 hour shifts leave no time for gaming sometimes.

[thorny dune]

pog

[wispy wyvern]

<@&830144903652311090> cleanup on aisle three.

[left pebble]

We got a code Chapaa on general chat

Mod police, come in

[faint dawn]

I think the server finally peaked at around 75,000 members.. it hasent grown all crazy for a few days..

[arctic onyx]

speaking of monetization, low entry fee of 30 dollars with expansions down the line?

kinda like gw2

[wispy wyvern]

Oh well then it's on!

[umbral ferry]

streancommunuty, nice one

[wild niche]

Lmao pretty sure he managed a post in all channels

[bright forge]

I think so

[arctic onyx]

yeah that would be a good pro consumer monetization strategy

[blazing kelp]

money!

[thorny dune]

We know nothing of monetization yet though

[blazing kelp]

lodsemone

[thorny dune]

despite it being brought up twice an hour

[arctic onyx]

but people could argue that expansions split the playerbase

[bright forge]

I doubt it will be ftp

[wispy wyvern]

Thank you mods.

[hard whale]

i hope im selected to try out the alpha

[regal swallow]

Bingo card mmm

[hard whale]

i want to see how it feels

[umbral ferry]

Feels like 20% of the questions in #851872239435644928 are about how it'll be monetized

[wispy wyvern]

Synesthesia is no joke.

[lean venture]

Look at toasty being useful pfft

[arctic onyx]

monetization can make or break a game imo

[hard whale]

what is synethesia?

[regal swallow]

What if the team for testing gave us a bingo card to test

[heavy narwhal]

Anyone have any idea how this romancing the. NPC will work?

[mild dove]

would also tel how long it might be able to stay alive

[void imp]

cute

[thorny dune]

fight me, giant

[bright forge]

It has a great impact on game so I'm no surprised

[wispy wyvern]

Its a neurological condition wherein someone can see smells, or smell sounds, for example.

[lean venture]

Respond to your DM ant

[paper wing]

most likely similar to SDV

[brisk ivy]

Expansion packs do split players, but they could handle them in a specific way. Like what if expansion packs expanded cosmetic options?

[umbral ferry]

Sure but like, they've already said multiple times they don't have anything to say on it yet

[hard whale]

oh, that wasn't my intention, i just really hope i get to be picked to try the alpha

[void imp]

there were no details yet

[wispy wyvern]

No no, I was just yanking your chain, dont worry.

[umbral ferry]

such devastation

[hard whale]

oh ok

[heavy narwhal]

But, multiple people have interaction between the same npc

[void imp]

oh but gender doesn't matter, you can date anyone

[worldly lily]

I hope the chat ingame is as lively as in here LOL

[paper wing]

the story is mainly a solo experience, so it doesn't matter

[faint dawn]

This was NOT my intention

[umbral ferry]

didn't they say it depends on the NPC

[heavy narwhal]

That's good.

[void imp]

let me check

[bright forge]

I know but peoples will always ask questions before checking for answer

[thorny dune]

Game is going to be 90$ with a mandatory 40$ season pass, a 20$ monthly subscription fee and a 30$ monthly premium VIP membership - each expansion will cost 90$ afterwards too

[arctic onyx]

would be awkward seeing the same romanced NPCs in every player's household

[hard whale]

i would find it cool if we could have as much player choice as possible, fallout isn't giving me the player choice i wanted anymore... Not since fallout 4 😭

[heavy narwhal]

That's my fear...

[paper wing]

perfect - keeps out the riff-raff

[umbral ferry]

Ah no, poly was depending on NPC

[bright forge]

comedy master

[thorny dune]

Honestly it's the only way I'd have it, bot free

[arctic onyx]

Palia day one on gamepass pog?

[umbral ferry]

Also playerfree

[lean venture]

AAU was 30 bucks and they still had plenty of bots ;<

[hard whale]

why not have vip servers?

[formal wave]

LOL

[mild dove]

i think we can romance a random npc that random made not the mains ones that give quest and store fronts

[thorny dune]

Perfection chefs kiss

[arctic onyx]

NAH

[hard whale]

monthly fee to play on a server that doesnt have free to plays

[faint dawn]

This is a big No.

[umbral ferry]

I just hope this game will have a good hair system

[arctic onyx]

ayo why are there two miras?

[hard whale]

good point, im just trying to see how we can combat bots

[thorny dune]

Other one was way before you, sorry bud

[hard whale]

PSO2 is plagued with them 😦

[umbral ferry]

I hate when games only have like 14 hairstyles to pick, of which only 2 are ponytail styles and neither has the front the way I like it 😛

[arctic onyx]

you're multiplying ayo?!

[hard whale]

we need to have a selection of hairstyles similar to this https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/10168/

or even more

[thorny dune]

Agreed, always happens that way in singleplayer but good thing about MMOs though is that they always add stuff like that

[clear prism]

☹️

[paper wing]

bots might be lessened if there is no commodities market and trading is limited

[umbral ferry]

I'd prefer a multipart system, where you pick back and front separately, ideally side-hair and extensions too

[clear prism]

No, I know where edgy haircuts lead to

[hard whale]

lets include that too

[arctic onyx]

just have a great anti cheat 4Head

[paper wing]

being hidden under a tin can anyway?

[umbral ferry]

For some reason I never see western games do that

[void imp]

I stand corrected, we do know some things already:
-Dialogue with NPCs? Choices
-We'll have relationships and romance, things like spouses and children could come later
-Villagers have lives to live as well, so you'll see them all around the world
-Romance will be only between players and npc (gender doesn’t matter). Currently no player to player romance but they are looking into it
-Romance multiple npcs? Yes but just like in real life, some people might be upset if they find out

[clear prism]

Clips out

And usually edgy haircuts leads to edgy outfit and edgy tattoos

[lean venture]

I've been here for a long time I just don't talk unless I want to bother Toasty or Milky 🙂

[paper wing]

not tattoos! gasp

[heavy narwhal]

Very informative

[umbral ferry]

Oh no

[brisk ivy]

What if hair could be bigger than my own head and clipped through walls as I walked through doors? Would be pretty edgy.

[bright forge]

Don't forget about backstory!

[umbral ferry]

It's a second Mira

[arctic onyx]

sheesh clash of the miras

[thorny dune]

One had to rename themselves, the other was already that name 😉

I mean I witnessed the renaming, too

[arctic onyx]

ayo my homie mira here stays winning 😤

[paper wing]

we have to Sarahs and we get along fine

[heavy narwhal]

We aren't playing Second Life people

[void imp]

Romance will be only between players and npc (gender doesn’t matter).

[umbral ferry]

Yeah, as said, poly is depending on NPC

[wispy wyvern]

Which is good because I do not need to see giant flying babies

[thorny dune]

Jina gonna have a busy schedule

[clear prism]

only
Players are not allowed to have love with each other

[umbral ferry]

Sadly, I want someoen to make a newer game that's similar to it

[brisk ivy]

You cannot love another person. Only this robot.

[bright forge]

yet

[heavy narwhal]

A friend tried to get me to play that... it was a hard pass

[paper wing]

the addition of player 'romance' isn't a forgone conclusion but RPers will find a way regardless

[hard whale]

apparently

thankfully mods can make that happen

[umbral ferry]

Not in a MMO, also dodn't think I've ever seen a game mod add that

[wispy wyvern]

I tried it out for a bit, it had some wholesome areas, but not many

[left pebble]

Same experience in my case

[hard whale]

yeah mmos cannot be modded in the traditional sense, there are some that can do community made addons, but those are limited to graphics, sounds, and UI

[thorny dune]

It'd likely be clientside and usually they're against ToS

[umbral ferry]

Wonder how similar VRChat is to SL

[brisk ivy]

Ashura better watch out. The roleplayers are going to his tavern.

[mild dove]

being able to mod in palia might be doable if they let us players host our own servers

[clear prism]

5 miras*

[thorny dune]

dude I don't care relax you're all great

[regal swallow]

I'm surprised I'm the only Shrew currently

[arctic onyx]

i want anime in palia

[umbral ferry]

Every Mira is a great Mira

[wispy wyvern]

😉

[thorny dune]

Giant mira is mean to be fair

[umbral ferry]

Who's that?

[thorny dune]

I can't say or i'll summon her

[buoyant heath]

Do you know what you call a group of Miras?

A miracle.

[arctic onyx]

shut up 💀

[flat palm]

Is this gunna start something like that Josh fight?

[thorny dune]

boooo 👎

[umbral ferry]

@buoyant heath Living up to your name

[clear prism]

I see more than 10 Sparks

[thorny dune]

Dw there's like 1 trillion toastys

[regal swallow]

Mmm toast

[thorny dune]

With that many, any kind you would want 👀

[arctic onyx]

ayo toasted pickles?

[thorny dune]

Except french 🤛

[pearl sedge]

[flat palm]

What kind of Toast are you?

[thorny dune]

The regal kind

[heavy dew]

Bread

[arctic onyx]

[thorny dune]

[buoyant heath]

You know what you call a group of sparks? A sparkle.

[arctic onyx]

sorry to hear that, just pick another form? 💀

[lucid gyro]

baguette

[brisk ivy]

All bread is toast, as all bread has a crust.

[thorny dune]

toast is bread that's cooked twice

[heavy dew]

If KingToasty and Toastie got together, would it be inbread? @regal swallow

[umbral ferry]

why would you cook bread

[thorny dune]

You're under arrest

[brisk ivy]

Just eat the dough.

[arctic onyx]

i like my toast black like my coffee

[umbral ferry]

tbf, dough is super tasty

[heavy dew]

No knead for violence..

[ripe nova]

[heavy dew]

[thorny dune]

[heavy dew]

[wheat falcon]

hello to all future neighbors

[paper wing]

is that art tag for your skill in pun use?

[umbral ferry]

thats close to a shuba duck

[wild niche]

There should be mention of the fact that the game doesn't have a release date yet in the little community Guidelines thing when your first join the server

[ripe nova]

hello neighbor

[heavy dew]

It’s a 50 50 split between puns and emotes I think, maybe 60 40 emote

[buoyant heath]

This new person looks a little sus

[lone crane]

[ripe nova]

im not the impostor

[cyan narwhal]

Beans on toast it is!!

[heavy dew]

That sounds like something an imposter would say

[ripe nova]

im your neighbor 🙂

[proven temple]

Sounds like something an impostor would say.

Let's split the difference. Paypalia

[lone crane]

PAL-IA ONLY.

[regal swallow]

Free PAL hugs

[ripe nova]

[regal swallow]

[arctic onyx]

[heavy dew]

That too, agreed

[proven temple]

Shawty

[flat palm]

I think Bruh is more gender neutral tho

[faint dawn]

Shrew is MINE!!

[lone crane]

Bruh more like a shocked reaction type word for me

[regal swallow]

https://tenor.com/view/bruh-bye-ciao-gif-5156041

[heavy dew]

Okay this I agree with more, it’s the cadence that matters

The referee has spoken

[regal swallow]

I am?

[arctic onyx]

eren yeager should be in palia no cap

[flat palm]

Yeh

[proven temple]

''This bruh is going through a character arc'' I don't think that works.

[lone crane]

Who TF???

[paper wing]

I think it doesn't matter what you think so much as what the person you address thinks

[proven temple]

All the cap.

[arctic onyx]

only fax and no printer

[flat palm]

Boi?

[heavy dew]

Nah nah nah, “dude” was the correct term

[paper wing]

and I must be right because I put a lot of though into that

[flat palm]

This was strictly for the term Bro

[proven temple]

If you did, then it must be right.

[ripe nova]

evil guy: HA HAAAA u lost... now dieeeeeee

[heavy dew]

So.. we don’t have to care then? Cause, I can’t affect how other people perceive things, they might be crazy, I don’t know

[brisk ivy]

I believe "broil" is the correct term.

[static mango]

i just got out of bed

[flat palm]

Not the power of friendship

[rapid hound]

anyone know when prealpha is happening?

[arctic onyx]

good morning

[heavy dew]

[rapid hound]

;3; hope I get picked

[heavy dew]

[proven temple]

I know lol. But it looked like they meant for that specific sentence.

[flat palm]

So fancy

[arctic onyx]

pre alpha will come out after gta 6

[paper wing]

probably crazy, yes

[faint dawn]

1,400/hundreds of thousands...

Gl everybody.

[flat palm]

gl

[ripe nova]

o no...

[flat palm]

There's a GTA 6 coming out?

[heavy dew]

Crazy is the new ideal

[paper wing]

Forza Horizon 5 releases in 146 days so I'm good either way

[arctic onyx]

hey at least my grandchildren will play palia 💀

[heavy dew]

Half life 3 confirmed

[ripe nova]

true tre

[brisk ivy]

And then their grandchildren can play Star Citizen!

[arctic onyx]

bold of you to assume star citizen is launching in the next eon

[oblique dune]

im happy i have WZ,Rust and possibly Battlefield to play while waiting 🙂

[paper wing]

it's far superior to the alternative of having a rational state of mind

[proven temple]

Who today even has rationality?

[flat palm]

https://tenor.com/view/drax-the-destroyer-dave-bautista-metaphor-guardians-of-the-galaxy-over-my-head-gif-3613490

[heavy dew]

I could not agree any more, I probably could if I was sane but you know how it is bruh

[faint dawn]

Guess i got ffxiv expansion to play while everyobe else is in alpha..

[paper wing]

duuuude

[brisk ivy]

Time is relative to where you are, so when we launch our babies into space, perhaps then they can find a time where Star Citizen is made?

[flat palm]

The Knowing?

[arctic onyx]

ayo?!

[ripe nova]

like the river bro?

[paper wing]

hey - don't bring all your pent-up aggression into our community

[arctic onyx]

i love rust

[flat palm]

Catching some waves, Bruh

[oblique dune]

huh?

[arctic onyx]

i have 1.2k hours on that game

[ripe nova]

xd

[paper wing]

I think 1.2k hours in Rust qualifies as 'just getting started' right?

[oblique dune]

at 3.2k myself 🙂

[ripe nova]

really?!?!?!?

[faint dawn]

Also welcome to what may already be day 11.. sense the trailer was released..

[arctic onyx]

i can spray the ak at 200 meters, so

[regal swallow]

11 days of a community of Pals

[keen sparrow]

hi

[proven temple]

It's only been 11 days?

[paper wing]

I'm just going by what my kid tells me

[arctic onyx]

damn that's close to my 4k in destiny 2

i have no friends

[oblique dune]

idek wanna know how many hours i have in total on WoW lol

[proven temple]

Of all the games you can spend time on..you chose destiny.

[arctic onyx]

yes.

[proven temple]

oof

[oblique dune]

i mean, it seemed fun

[arctic onyx]

i hate destiny, it's my favorite game

[paper wing]

no game shaming in our lovely community

[oblique dune]

but i didnt have friends playing it, so i never started myself

[thorny dune]

This sentence represents the hearts of gamers

[proven temple]

I played the shit out of destiny 2 as well, but I hate it so much.

[oblique dune]

i hate wow, but have still played it for 16 years lol

[flat palm]

I started playing Stardew Valley with some friends, but I'm so lost cause they're already 2 years in and I just joined u.u

[regal swallow]

Back on topic, with what do you think is on the sky islands?

[flat palm]

There are sky islands?

[oblique dune]

theres sky islands?

[flat palm]

Eeey

[proven temple]

Lol, I just started my Stardew Valley play. Only about to get to Summer year 1

[oblique dune]

[faint dawn]

Good game, enjoyit.

[proven temple]

Almost in year 3 on my other play but I wanted to start again

[regal swallow]

There is a mountain with floating rocks above it

[flat palm]

I just wander around, I got a coffee maker finally, so I use it to woo Harvey

[cinder comet]

I think I'm gonna play stardew until palia Tennessee

[blazing kelp]

rock n roll

[arctic onyx]

yeah that would be minecraft for me, been playing it since the alpha

[cinder comet]

Uh. Release s

[proven temple]

Coffee is THE way to harvey's heart

[proven temple]

What do you play it on?

[flat palm]

PC

[oblique dune]

i dabbled in the alpha and beta, but didnt rly play much after it released

[paper wing]

once you get the greenhouse full of ancient fruit it's kind of cruise control

[flat palm]

I started playing it in MS, but couldn't figure out how to place things so I didn't get into it until 2 years later u.u

[blazing kelp]

im a abigail fan

she eat rocks

[proven temple]

Yeah, which is why I'm trying to unlock the greenhouse asap

[proven temple]

She's nice, I like her too

[blazing kelp]

i give her quartz because she is always hungry

[oblique dune]

i dont even remember the name of the guy i married in stardew lol

[flat palm]

My friends already have a greenhouse, and idk how to use it D: I finally planted some parsnips though

[proven temple]

I always give Sebastian quartz

It's easy to get and he likes it

[oblique dune]

ayy, Sebastion , thats the name 🙂

[proven temple]

That's the one I'm trying to marry this playthrough

[oblique dune]

hes sweet

[proven temple]

The last time I married Sam

Literally opposite personalities lol

[oblique dune]

yeah

[flat palm]

How do y'all feel about Leah?

[bright forge]

My choice

[proven temple]

From what i can tell she's cool but I have never gotten above 3 hearts with her so I don't know her that well

[bright forge]

Leah is the best for me

[flat palm]

6 of my friends were after her hand in marriage, and one of them finally won yesterday, so everyone else is sad

[faint dawn]

Leah bonks you..

On the head

[fleet ridge]

Hoi

[paper wing]

bruh

[faint dawn]

hears the sister from windwaker Hooooooiiiiiiii

[fleet ridge]

[rotund burrow]

Hi guys hows the game development?

[faint dawn]

These reactions are a bit corny, but i like it.

[oblique dune]

I mean, corn is just awesome

[paper wing]

we were just writing the algorithm to make NPCs automatically ignore people with numbers in their name in place of letters - how's it going for you?

[brisk ivy]

Hey, he didn't replace l with 1.

[rotund burrow]

I hope the game is built 70% combat as it is also from Riot u know Riot does not bring people down hehe

[oblique dune]

combat? o.o

[paper wing]

there is zero combat, but okay

[oblique dune]

we grow corn in here

[proven temple]

As far as I know, combat won't be a big thing.

[viscid charm]

Yeah, you can raid each other's farms and steal all the tomatoes for your clan!

[proven temple]

We are farmers

[brisk ivy]

Cornbat?

[rotund burrow]

oh I mean for Hunting

[brisk ivy]

rn kind of looks like m

[burnt fulcrum]

Combat might be a thing, but if it is, it sure won't be the main focus, and it will be optional

[loud axle]

Good morning~

Oh I see we're feeling... corny this morning 😄

[fleet ridge]

I need emotes

[rotund burrow]

Hunting boars or maybe defending ur town from goblins for example also combat for chopping corns

[faint dawn]

Hunting combat would be boring..
I like the idea of having to be sneaky or the game runs away...

[paper wing]

goblins?!?

[oblique dune]

corn traps 😉

[zealous bough]

might wanna check the website again if you actually think this :X

[arctic onyx]

i wanna slaughter dragons with my holy light while also tending to my crops

[rotund burrow]

example only

[left pebble]

Palia goblins moment

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TvgsGBzuurU

[zealous bough]

I like your optimism!

[paper wing]

...everything but goblins

[left pebble]

Get Palia Prime for one day delivery

[faint dawn]

Goblins are not yet confirmed.

[viscid charm]

Hoe, scythe and axe are all fine tools for slaughter!

[arctic onyx]

aight gimme 3 years so i can graduate with my comp sci degree

[oblique dune]

One Corn a day, keeps the goblins away

[arctic onyx]

ill make palia 3

[left pebble]

I imagine chapaas will play a role as kind of the goblins? Given that they are pests and all

[proven temple]

oop..

[arctic onyx]

that means i can kill them lez goooooooo

[faint dawn]

Also combat isnt going to be forced.. so even in open world trying to get trees or stone.. nothing should attack you...

[maiden nymph]

one would argue goblins are pests too 👀 for example goblin slayer (sorry read it wrongly, its super hot here that makes me slow thinking xD)

[oblique dune]

What does the chu say?

[arctic onyx]

THOSE GOBLINS ARE NOT PESTS, HAVE WE WATCHED THE SAME SHOW BRUH

[loud axle]

bring ding ding ding ding ding da ding

[faint dawn]

I expect most aninals to runaway when you get near.

[void imp]

i've watched that and animations of it sooo many times

[maiden nymph]

okay they are maximum evil in that show

[loud axle]

I mean you have to be able to kill the Chus, how else are you supposed to make Chuu tacos?

[faint dawn]

[arctic onyx]

nah i just wanna sell their tusks

[void imp]

he survives 😤 they become friends

[arctic onyx]

the rest can go in the trash

[maiden nymph]

Also i read the light novel, which is even worse

[oblique dune]

chapaa carpet anyone?

[arctic onyx]

can't be as dark and amazing as berserk?

i love that manga

actually i mainly read dark fantasies

[lone crane]

The combat you're gonna see is you fighting your veggies to harvest faster

[faint dawn]

You can kill things when hunting, i just dont thibk you will actually "fight" them as in the faq docs says theres no HP or char death...

So they have to make it enguaging in aanother way which might very well be havibg to sneak up on the animal without it running quickly away or burrowing into the ground..

[lone crane]

https://thumbs.gfycat.com/BlueOpenJerboa-size_restricted.gif uh oh we harvesting

[maiden nymph]

Berserk as a manga is a masterwork, i'm not even overstating with that. But The goblin slayer light novel is a really good story to read, it's very dark and goes in way more detail about the psychological aspects

[oblique dune]

better fight for my corn!

[left pebble]

😳

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/816275304992997427/854007860580843520/unknown.png

More likely one of the deer but

[maiden nymph]

not a chapaa wrong pattern on the back and not the right tail

[left pebble]

Yup yup, just pointing out that something similar exists

[arctic onyx]

YES

[oblique dune]

elderly chapaa that lost its color 😉

[brisk ivy]

Time to wear full leather/fur clothing!

[arctic onyx]

i must bring death and carnage into this world, one way or another

[faint dawn]

I want a pet yakmoo named "HowNowBrownCow"

[brisk ivy]

Synthetic materials? Ain't got time for that!

[loud axle]

But it's... not a cow 😦

[maiden nymph]

I want a magical carpet 🪄

[faint dawn]

Ican milk it.

[lone crane]

Taking up alchemy to create microplastics and poison the world of Palia

[left pebble]

Oh yeah, are the names kitsuu and tau fan names or?

[brisk ivy]

Plastics are pretty deadly. I'll consider it.

[faint dawn]

And another.. named.. Sir Francis CurlyFuzz

[arctic onyx]

if it moves, i will kill it

[maiden nymph]

tau is a official name as far as i know

[oblique dune]

i mean, if my corn moves, imma kill it

[arctic onyx]

nah all i need is palia

[faint dawn]

And there better be a yakmoo with a big colorful saddle.. multi-rider party mount..

[arctic onyx]

I'm morally and mentally fit to play this game 🙏

[brisk ivy]

In some MMOs, they have items that let you transform into other creatures. Think they'll let players turn into critters so we can hunt them down?

[left pebble]

Interesting concept

[oblique dune]

Hm, to be one with the corn. That sounds nice

[faint dawn]

Omg gw2 and Mabinogi have the best transform systems..

[left pebble]

Polymorphing into a chapaa to dig into the ground

[maiden nymph]

Abandon humanity become Chapaa living in a trashcan

[faint dawn]

Secret discovered chapaa tunnels and chapaa hidden underground village.

[lone crane]

Bro??? Transforming in mabinogi is the best. 😭

[left pebble]

CHAPAAVILLE

[brisk ivy]

Didn't mabinogi allow players to play as their own pets?

[lone crane]

Using certain monster models increase the range of windmill 🤨

[left pebble]

Chuu's are dissidents in Chapaaville

[faint dawn]

Yes, i want this too

[lone crane]

Correct

[left pebble]

Deep Chapaa lore

[viscid charm]

Maybe they should add hide-and-seek to the game. Part of a forest where player names above the heads become hidden for example.

[arctic onyx]

they should add super soaker pvp

[oblique dune]

server event for hide and seek, now that sounds like fun

[heavy narwhal]

Is terraforming going to be a thing?

[viscid charm]

Throwing snowballs is another casual game.

[arctic onyx]

all i know is that you can cut trees and plow land

[oblique dune]

until a rock is snook into one

[brisk ivy]

I doubt it, if only because MMOs tend to avoid terraforming outside of maybe planting trees.

[viscid charm]

Hardened ice is enough.

[loud axle]

No. From the FAQ: "There's no terraforming but the customization options for your plot will get very interesting"

[faint dawn]

Playing as your pets could be used to turn into animals..

So ita not like uaing magic..

(Its been confirmed theres no magoc skills..)

[viscid charm]

And of course fishing contest! In half an hour, how much fish you can catch - or the biggest fish wins.

[left pebble]

Missed the S key by a bit :p

[cinder comet]

Good morning.

[loud axle]

Welcome back Juliet~

[faint dawn]

My thumbs too big for my tiny phone keyboard.

[cinder comet]

Roan do you ever sleep? 😂

[viscid charm]

Those gliders in the trailer could be used in racing events where you fly through hoops as checkpoints

[loud axle]

I just woke up about 20 minutes ago! 😛

[faint dawn]

Yes

[left pebble]

Searched the doc and was surprised to only find 4 mentions to magic, interesting

[faint dawn]

Also.. if theres a tall mountain.. i rquest snowballs.. and SLEDDING..

[left pebble]

Magic Skill Line? Definitely no 'magic' skill to level up like 'hunting' atm "atm"

[faint dawn]

Read them.

[left pebble]

let's hope this changes lul

[summer obsidian]

I was asking Shrew the same thing this morning, because he was here when I left at 12:00, and was here again when I started work at 7:30, haha

[viscid charm]

Sledding as coop race! One pusher and other as the driver

[pine crag]

Sledding... yes please. Let me sled!

[regal swallow]

Hmm I did sleep

[summer obsidian]

I know ❤️

[left pebble]

No mentions to seasons in the doc either :(

[arctic onyx]

sledding like club penguin pog

[brisk ivy]

There's some magic we've seen.

[summer obsidian]

it's been asked about a ton in the #851872239435644928...if they are ready to answer that, they probably will

[regal swallow]

Magic forest gate

[cinder comet]

@left pebble I've asked about seasons but I believe it's all speculation still because of how days work

[left pebble]

ah yes yes i was just mentioning it

haven't really kept up with #851872239435644928

[cinder comet]

@left pebble I would also LOVE to see seasons.

[loud axle]

They've specifically avoided talking about weather / seasons / festivals.

[summer obsidian]

me either, to be honest, haha

[cinder comet]

Festivals 🤤

[summer obsidian]

CANDY APPLES!!!

[loud axle]

Which makes sense, it's a difficult thing to decide because of how they're currently doing time in the game where 1 hr IRL = 1 day in game

[rotund burrow]

I'm excited to shoot birds at this games hahah

[oblique dune]

candy corn 😮

[left pebble]

I was bringing it up because I was downloading some pics earlier and checking the singularity 6 website i found something neat

[cinder comet]

Why can't this game be out nowwwww 😂

[fleet ridge]

[rotund burrow]

cuz its mmo they will also be facing some mmos yah its in Byte's bucket list

[faint dawn]

Thats why i said mountain.. because it could be snowyon a mountain without it being winter..

[loud axle]

Sounds like a good festival to me~

[oak spoke]

I'm...am back from the dead, how is everyone?

[cinder comet]

Such gorgeous concept art.

[viscid charm]

The villagers are attacked by purple alien balls which makes them docile by their mesmerizing force?

[faint dawn]

As far as seasonal events go they can still coinside with irl...

Just because days go faster in game doesnt mean a year cant still be a year..

[left pebble]

That'd be really neat! Sledding could also be done on a river? Although that would be more like canoeing lmao

[cinder comet]

Alright, we are back to thr work week. Hoping this means some more game previews. 😂

[viscid charm]

Canoing is nice too!

[summer obsidian]

it will be interesting to see if they do seasons, or just go with different biomes (cold wintry mountain, warm meadow, hot swamp, beach, etc.)

[cinder comet]

Swamp 🐊

[summer obsidian]

I threw that in for you, haha

[cinder temple]

I wonder if we'll be able to collect bugs.

[oak spoke]

My question, what about skydiving?

[summer obsidian]

in the trailer, it looked like Nel's character had a bug net

[viscid charm]

I would very much like seasonal plants and changing seasons, even if they only change in 1 or 2 real life month.

[lone crane]

Man, playing mabinogi really makes this fast day night cycle and seasons issue so... unimportant. 🤨

[keen sparrow]

that would be so cute

[maiden nymph]

I've got my like 11 bugs open on my task management software, i hope i can just report them and not have to collect them xD (i know you mean collecting like in pokemon)

[cinder temple]

Bonus points if occasionally, when going after butterflies, a flock of them flies in formation to resist capture and challenges you to a low-stakes duel.

[brisk ivy]

We've seen a bug net in the trailer as well as that kid in the firefly concept art next to a bug net in another piece of concept art.

[summer obsidian]

runs from the SUPER BUTTERFLY

[cinder temple]

Excellent; come visit the Mantis Room™️ once my house is built.

[oak spoke]

Lol that would be adorable

[lone crane]

Raid monster where we need multiple people to use their nets to shrink the massive butterfly back to one

[cinder temple]

Butterflock? Butterfleet?

[viscid charm]

Butterflies, bugs, fishes - hopefullly great variety with very rare ones too, so collecting all will be a challenge and a time sink

[keen sparrow]

im so excited to fish

[maiden nymph]

I am convinced my head will play the animal crossing sound effect when collecting a bug

[frigid python]

AND we need them as pets.

[summer obsidian]

Butterfree? oh wait....

[lone crane]

First person to catch a new bug to the server gets to create the pun that everyone in server will see. 🥺

[viscid charm]

And of course various herbs and mushrooms which grow in the wilds. I would gladly hunt for them too!

[faint dawn]

PINE CONES!

[cinder temple]

Making the server suffer puns is something we can already do. Bugs the hell out've 'em. B)

[brisk ivy]

When you go to donate the bug in Palia.
Blathers: "Player #100,000 has already donated this specimen."

[viscid charm]

Walnut and acorn!

[keen sparrow]

i hope it's released soon im too impatient!!

[summer obsidian]

I hate to say, but the full launch of the game is probably still a few years away...

[keen sparrow]

im meaning pre phase

[maiden nymph]

When i was younger i used to play a game called "The pine cone wars" we placed a lot of garden furniture as protection on two sides of an overgrown fence, then collected all the pinecondes and threw them over it to hit all the players of the enemy team. That was pretty fun, but after the thrird round we then all also got our bike helmets xD

[fleet ridge]

Very corny

[summer obsidian]

ok. Pre-Alpha will probably be in the upcoming weeks/months. But remember only 1400 people are getting selected and they say they have had hundreds of thousands of people apply...so we can cross our fingers, but our chances are really low

[viscid charm]

The fence in itself didn't give enough protection?

[faint dawn]

Oof lol sounds fun, but might hurt dependending on whothrows

[maiden nymph]

well we threw the cones in a high angle above the fence

[sand barn]

👋

[brisk ivy]

Aim for the eyes. It's a point of weakness.

[maiden nymph]

It was really not that bad, we didn't used the heavy green cones that where not fully developed so the worst that happened was when one guy got hit on the head but it was not even hard enough to create a bump, so all good.

[winged basalt]

Ok so we know the game will very likely not have a class system, but instead be based around skills. At least that seems the most likely way to do it. But it has been hinted that combat will be a thing... and my brain won't let loose of 'will that have classes'...

Also... the generator at my bridge decided to blow it's head gasket today. So I'm currently covered in engine oil from the cleanup

[faint dawn]

Good good.

[viscid charm]

And you are chatting in Palia even covered in oil. Commendable!

[winged basalt]

... no I just can't get it off... no Gojo and no shower

So... begreased I am till 2pm

[obtuse heart]

+10 to defensive grapple checks

But also +20 to fire dmg

[winged basalt]

I think the engine warmer's thermostat bought the farm, and that is causing the warmer to keep the engine block at a toasty 145 degrees...

So when the engine fired up to run it's exercise this morning... the thing was already rocket hot, and running the engine made it too hot for the gasket to survive, and ... well... mess

[celest maple]

That sounds pretty dangerous

[viscid charm]

Did you use the engine to cook eggs on it?

[winged basalt]

More like annoying. There's a steel door between me and it and about 3 feet of concrete and rebar...

[winged grail]

I mean its a generator so technically in a round-about way he could use it to cook eggs? lol

[winged basalt]

I did this morning... just with a microwave... I made my breakfast while it ran it's exercise routine

And techically the bridge was on generator power during that time

[compact schooner]

hi

[viscid charm]

Hi

[winged basalt]

The engineering space is a MESS though

[celest maple]

I microwaved an egg once for fun

[winged basalt]

There is oil everywhere

[celest maple]

Oil go brrr

There’s so much oil the US might have to invade

[winged basalt]

Good they can bring Gojo to get this crap off me

[polar trench]

Morning ^^

[viscid charm]

Evening!

[faint dawn]

Now invading.

Welp that's terrifying

[cinder comet]

Still can't believe how large this discord got sp quickly

Already at 74k, can't imagine when the game officially opens

[viscid charm]

Better get used to it if you want to be a farmer!

[winged basalt]

The moment my corn becomes sentient I'm setting it on fire. I know how that ends... and it's not good

[paper spire]

hello

[vast badger]

does this game have dogs?

[viscid charm]

You think your corn would just wait patiently while you cook it in hot water?

[paper spire]

Not sure yet iirc

::Corn starts talking to itself::
"Oh wow... the corn has become sentient!"

Death wails of sentient corn intensify

[languid sun]

Ah good... the dad jokes have ceased

[brisk ivy]

You could just talk to the corn. They're all ears.

[carmine relic]

Don't burn the corn. How else do you think popcorn is made?

Really wanna ramble about ideas for my Paliasona now. Like lanky robo-elf staring wistfully at food he can't eat.

[winged basalt]

Who agrees with me that Einar has trebuchet's for arms, and can Yeet the unworthy into low orbit?

[summer obsidian]

Although I can't imagine Einar yeeting anyone, ever. He looks like a huge softy

[little silo]

Most definitely

[cinder temple]

There's a short single-player puzzle game called Maize you should look into.

[oblique dune]

Think he likes corn?

[winged basalt]

This is why you must be careful, it is difficult to bring the Einar to violence. But when you do... you get yeeted with great rage and anger

[little silo]

We must learn the secrets of the golems. Then we can employ them as servitors to work the fields and factories.

[brisk ivy]

His arms look like tapeworms. Kinda freaky.

[winged basalt]

Maybe that's the combat system. You can't fight, you're just a squishy human, but you build a battle golem to do your fighting for you

[novel plank]

Good morning Palians:))

[little silo]

'Mornin

[brisk ivy]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pM75MpeWmq8

[winged basalt]

I mean... a battle golem system with classes of golems, the ability to build more than one?

So you have like 3 types. A tank golem, a damage golem, and a repair golem. Your role in a dungeon fits tank/damage/healer roles as normal....

[little silo]

Oooh yes they would make a formidable weapons platform...

[winged basalt]

That would line up with the casual concept... cause you can be any class you want to be when you go do combat content

[little silo]

My mechandrites are twitching with excitement

[void imp]

maybe his confrontational cousin

[tiny otter]

did they release the new villager yet?

[winged basalt]

Not yet

[little silo]

Nope

[mild dove]

I wondering how the programming to make the robot do stuff will be in the game. Like having a work line of robots gathering to mats to item.

[warm gale]

ANnnnnnd I fell asleep haha. Sorry, sorry. Hum hum ! Welcome everyone, Tea Mori is now opened ! This morning we received a wonderful green tea, excellent cold, you'll enjoy its soft floral aftertaste.

[little silo]

Rp aside, I doubt we will see any form of automated resource gathering. Golems are probably just going to be NPC of some flavour

[mild dove]

or at least watering our crops

[tough orchid]

Has anyone theorized that Grimalkin might be genetically modified Chapaas?

[winged basalt]

Not really

[little silo]

I could see that as a reward to work toward

[winged basalt]

Grimalkin are clearly cats, Chapaa are based on squirrels

Felidae != rodentia

[tough orchid]

Hence the genetic modification

[faint dawn]

Mmm thats some good butter...

[brisk ivy]

Grimalkin are probably long distant relatives of the Keebler elves.

[winged basalt]

You don't get a different base species through genetic modification, hence the word modification. They could be genetically modified, but it would have been from something more catlike

[tough orchid]

I see where you’re coming from, we don’t know if Chapaas contain catlike dna either

[regal swallow]

"Does it come with a pleasing aroma as well?"

[faint dawn]

Chapaa are squirrel, chipmonk, boar beaver... is all we kno

[winged basalt]

yep

[little silo]

Grimalkin are the reason humanity first disappeared. Once the cats evolved thumbs, they became grimalkin and they no longer needed humans to open their cans of tuna. Human / grimalkin relations went downhill from there and eventually the Grimalkin rose to power.

[oblique dune]

What do they sound like?

[brisk ivy]

If they evolved from cats, how did they get so purple?

[faint dawn]

Gangs of cats with thumbs

[winged basalt]

Clearly you've never seen a cat houdini his way into something he's not suppose to be in... those things don't need thumbs 😛

[tough orchid]

I forgot, Id have to rewatch the cinematic

[winged basalt]

My brother's absolute unit of a cat opens doors on the regular

[little silo]

I have a cat that opens door knobs and child proof cabinets. Thumbs would make them capable of making nuclear weapons.

[faint dawn]

Tho... irl.. some cats do have thumbs..

[winged basalt]

Not all... though polydactly is more common now than it was in the past

[little silo]

The beginning of the end.

[brisk ivy]

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dewclaw

[languid sun]

Just a few thousand more years...

[little silo]

If we are lucky.

[oblique dune]

look in pet pics 🙂

[little silo]

Palia is a warning of what will happen if the cats progress is not stoped before they become grimalkin

[faint dawn]

They will rule the world

[warm gale]

"As this is not flavoured, what you'll taste with this particular tea will be more subtle. The texture is round and it will help deliver buttery and fresh vegetal fragrances. I would recommend infusing it in cold water for around 15 minutes. But if you want and are looking for a more fruity infusion, I'd be pleased to make you a custom one."

All the grimmalkins would swarm one spot..

Point the lazor pointer on an unsuspecting human for maximum funny

[winged basalt]

Bastet was... in a word. Too Stronk. She kept eating people and none of the other gods save her dad, Amun Ra, had the power to stop her. So... in order to fix this problem. The other gods drugged her. They made a mix of wine and human blood, and left it out for Bastet, who gorged herself on it, falling into a drunken stupor. They dragged Ra over, and got their senile grandpa of a deity to syphon off part of the power he had given her, so that she would be less murderous furry chainsaw, and more deity of war and tactics...

[brisk ivy]

I've heard that most cats are lactose intolerant. Very cute!

[little silo]

In *adulthood *

[celest maple]

almost all grown up animals are lactose intolerant, some humans are not due to a mutation

[faint dawn]

Im a mutant!

[void imp]

i know she's a god but still i have to think of a toddler who won't stop eating something they're not supposed to eat, just shoveling with both hands because she only listens to her dad, everyone around her "bastet no! bad bastet". even though it was probably more like Francisco Goya's "Saturn devouring his son" (don't look it up it's not wholesome)

everyone with blue eyes is a mutant

[brisk ivy]

That's great! I thought cats could only handle cat milk or something.

[abstract tusk]

You’re confusing Bastet with Sekhmet.

[paper mulch]

do we know anything about palia's release yet? I mean the "soon" is like saying nothing

[haughty dew]

Less then 3 years has been said

[winged basalt]

Sometimes they're the same person

[little silo]

Its had 3 years of development already

[haughty dew]

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

[summer obsidian]

Game development takes a long time, it's not for the weak at heart

[little silo]

So on average it is between 1/ and 2/3 through a typical development cycle

[brisk ivy]

You know, I never really liked cats too much. Each time my family tried to raise one when I was young, they ended up like Genghis Khan. Cats are very mean to each other. It's all about conquest.

[abstract tusk]

Nope. You’re thinking of Hathor now. 😉

[brisk ivy]

I don't think the kin of cats could ever form a town.

[little silo]

I think it depends.

I've seen cats work together in limited capacities

[winged basalt]

The Egyptians blended a LOT of their various deities over the 2000+ years they were active.

Heck by the end of the empire, Ra, osiris, and horus were joined into this weird conjoined super deity like some kind of god-voltron

[little silo]

A cat-nip tea farm would be quite a cat-like venture

[oblique dune]

anyone else has oranges in their tacos?

[little silo]

Pork carnitas w honey and orange, yes

[winged basalt]

The Bastet/Sekhmet stuff usually comes from the kingdom being so big at the time, and everything still being relayed by stories and not written language, as hieroglyphs were for pyramids and the important people.

[brisk ivy]

I'm okay with lime in my tacos.

So I guess other fruit have a place too.

[little silo]

Its mostly to tenderize the meat while cooking

Acid breaks down the protein

[brisk ivy]

Now is the time for grapefruit tacos.

[oblique dune]

how bout this watermelon mustard trend that goin around?

[brisk ivy]

What.

[little silo]

Makes sense, honestly. Watermelon with tajin seasoning has been popular for a very long time, mustard is just another type of spice

Similar taste profile, if not a bit more vinagary

[oblique dune]

its actually not bad 🙂

[hallow idol]

I keep meaning to try it

[little silo]

I have not tried it yet. Sounds like something that Ai cook would come up with

[brisk ivy]

But it's basically sugar water with mustard on it.

[zinc moss]

wat.. watermelon and mustard?

is there a specific type of mustard you must use?

[tardy harbor]

watermelon and halloumiiii

[oblique dune]

afaik just regular mustard

[zinc moss]

like the yellow shit

[oblique dune]

ye

[zinc moss]

ngl.. this sounds terrible

[little silo]

Thats the trend, ya

[hallow idol]

I love mustard, but it's a very polarizing condiment

[paper mulch]

is Palia gonna be free to play? pay to play or P2W? 😄

[zinc moss]

maybe if you grilled it fist?

[little silo]

Not yet determined

[rustic ginkgo]

N

[tiny otter]

not announced

[oblique dune]

xD

[tiny otter]

oops

[zinc moss]

wrong person? lol

[little silo]

Thats another one for palia chat bingo!

[brisk ivy]

I like yellow peppers, because they taste zesty like mustard, but they don't make bread that soggy.

[oblique dune]

can we grill chapaas? 🤔

[regal swallow]

Mmm grilled corn

[oblique dune]

now corn must be a must

chapaas and corn for the bbq tonight!

[little silo]

Chappa burger

[brisk ivy]

Think Chapaa steal from gardens?

[shell comet]

Now I want a hamburger. Great.

[viscid charm]

I always want hamburger, pizza and langos

[oblique dune]

if they steal my corn, they gon get grilled for sure

[brisk ivy]

Nothing is worse than an animal stealing crops! I've had deer steal all my cabbages before.

[little silo]

See if your area has a Mr.BeastBurger ghost kitchen. Around here its one of the best burgers you can get w/o going high end gourmet

[regal swallow]

A group of Chapaa is called a problem

[oblique dune]

fact

[noble compass]

Chapaa supremacy

[alpine python]

Ugh we had a Mr.Beast burger kitchen here for a little bit then it closed.

it was super good

[brisk ivy]

They know that you don't have enough arrows to take them all down!

[noble compass]

How dare you

[summer obsidian]

That's it, I'm calling HECC!

[rose cedar]

you misspelt coat.

[regal swallow]

Just saying what I saw S6 written about it

[little silo]

I've been seriously impressed with ours

[regal swallow]

They confirmed it's called a Problem of Chapaas

[alpine python]

the beast fries were soooooooo delicious.

[little silo]

In context, that had the impression of being a joke

[distant oar]

To be fair, that was a dumb joke of mine but it made our writer laugh so MAYBE it gets made canon.

[little silo]

But it seems accurate to me

[regal swallow]

We got a Maybe hooray!

[oblique dune]

basically confirmed cannon 😉

[rose cedar]

Dad jokes ftw. lol

[little silo]

If chappa v chuu can be seriously considered, then I hope a problem can be too

[rose cedar]

they taste the same no matter what you call them.

[noble compass]

You kids don't remember the great chapaa war D:

[viscid charm]

If a group of crows can be called a "murder of crows" than a problem of Chapaas is quite normal.

[little silo]

Especially with a lovely fresh relish

[oblique dune]

now... the veggie wars on the other hand

[rose cedar]

I prefer sour kraut

[noble compass]

flashback intensifies

[oblique dune]

laughs in corn

[celest maple]

I wonder if Chapaa is the same as chaparro. From a lexicon:
Chaparreras, leather overalls worn to protect riders' legs from the --chaparro-- = animal bigger than a wolf or hare.

[viscid charm]

You mean mounts confirmed?

[brisk ivy]

Did they ever say what Chapaas are based on? They're like a warthog, groundhog, squirrel thing.

[oblique dune]

mounts now cannon

Unique and memorable were two of the goals our artist @alexkintnerart had in mind when creating the little chapaas.

Or is it chuu? 🤔

[oblique dune]

[celest maple]

Can’t wait to see what you are building in palia

I won't make any predictions

[summer obsidian]

Can't wait to see the rest of the profile for the Grimalkin. Sound be really

[viscid charm]

You can make a glove too, to handle the hot pans

[oblique dune]

[little silo]

Or a nice hat.

[regal swallow]

Stay Warm!

[brisk ivy]

Thanks! I'm surprised they didn't say groundhog.

[viscid charm]

With the tusk on a necklace

[novel plank]

i'm doing exactly that :)

[hallow idol]

they do look very groundhogish, too

[oblique dune]

[little silo]

You can March around the chappa processing factory i will be building

And when you get hungry, buy a chappa burger

[oblique dune]

[little silo]

Lil corn starch to sweeten the whole thing up, sure

[regal swallow]

Yes!! That was a funny conversation

[summer obsidian]

HECC yeah it was!

[little silo]

I wonder how many chappas I can squeeze into a single cage?

[oblique dune]

Humans Eating Cute Chapaas 😮 has a nice tone to it

[summer obsidian]

I wouldn't though...I heard they're pretty chuuey

[graceful orchid]

[little silo]

Thats why you grind them into patties

[oblique dune]

[summer obsidian]

[oblique dune]

good food :3

[void imp]

they have bacon feaver, we have no choice but to wait it out

[oak spoke]

that sound so bad

[little silo]

It is nearly lunch time...

[umbral kernel]

Just popped in, what's this about bacon?

Could totally go for some bacon right now. O_O

[summer obsidian]

Right now would be a great time to get more information of the Grimalkin to get the conversation moved over to more...less murderous things

[oblique dune]

Chapaa taco sounds so good rn

[little silo]

What! Not whole! You gotta remove the pelts and bones first...

[graceful orchid]

apparently chappas taste like bacon!? im not sure LOL

[rose cedar]

nothing, Chuu taste like chicken

[umbral kernel]

Thought they'd taste like squirrel. Shame.

[rose cedar]

nope chicken

I will repeat that the biggest crime in Final Fantasy 14, is that there is a mob in the starting area named the Tuco Tuco... but we cannot use it's meat to make Tuco Tuco Tacos

[summer obsidian]

ZEKI!!

[oak spoke]

ok that sounds batter,and now im wondering how that would tast

[left pebble]

uh oh

[graceful orchid]

noooooooo!!!!! chapaa and chuuus are NOT EDIBLE!

[fringe minnow]

That's a good name ngl

[left pebble]

they deleted the tweet i think

[summer obsidian]

So he's a store owner

[distant oar]

Sorry about that, realized I forgot the ALT text ^^;

[fallen sun]

@graceful orchid As to your question in #851872239435644928 - they've confirmed that the alpha will be under NDA

[distant oar]

It's up now!

[umbral kernel]

Anything can be edible with enough imagination.

[vivid chasm]

Chapaa Chimichangas

[left pebble]

Oh okay! I thought it wasn't supposed to go up yet haha

[oblique dune]

the alpha? O.O

[graceful orchid]

@fallen sun Thank you!!!

[rose cedar]

yes they are, both taste like chicken. Chuus make better hats and Chapaa make better coats.

[summer obsidian]

@loud axle sorry, he doesn't have keys to the fast travel

[heavy narwhal]

How many people are they allowing for the alpha?

[summer obsidian]

1400 people and it's PRE-alpha

[fallen sun]

at least 1400

[graceful orchid]

I hope i am one of the lucky 1400! i am sooooooooo excited to play this game!

[fallen sun]

The selection process will involve a surprisingly comfortable battle to the death

[void imp]

dude, say "now'd be a good time to release aplha keys"

[umbral kernel]

I mean, in a pre-alpha, it's not going be that much of a game.

[rose cedar]

wont be much over 1400. extras will be content creators etc.

[summer obsidian]

alpha keys, monetization, pvp....

[umbral kernel]

So let's temper some expectations there.

[oak spoke]

to test the basics i think they may open it up more in the future

[left pebble]

@regal swallow you might wanna check this out

[graceful orchid]

@fallen sun

[oblique dune]

Grimalkin seems to have alot of nice meat on them

[regal swallow]

A story??

[fallen sun]

Correct. Saying "At least" saved me having to type more

[heavy narwhal]

My chances are Zero, but there's stilla chance lol. This game just hits all my check marks lol. So I have hopes.

Zeki joins the gang :D

[summer obsidian]

Hmmm...what "questionable goods" does Zeki sell?

[sand barn]

There's a chef at the inn! Yaaaay

[rose cedar]

Chapaa burgers

[fringe minnow]

Catto shop owner

[oblique dune]

he's buying my corn, thats for sure, wether he likes it or not 😛

[void imp]

or did you see it on twitter and it wasn't a coincidence?

[sharp obsidian]

Good question.

[regal swallow]

Alright stat someone make Zeki has wares!!

[summer obsidian]

It was a total coincidence, unless Nel was trying to help us out 😛

[fringe minnow]

He sells gateways for a PvP world

[oak spoke]

now that sound great, sound like a black market

[whole coral]

Or grimalkin burgers. In case you are wondering about a dwindling grimalkin population.

[oblique dune]

steaks!

[slate ruin]

Hmmm the new NPC page mentions "questionable goods"

Does that mean contraband where we can pickpocket NPCs and sell stolen goods like in ESO?

[cedar fractal]

Magic beans

[loud axle]

RIP

[sand barn]

Yakmoo Milkshakes? 🤔

[cedar fractal]

Self removing trousers

[lavish remnant]

Zeki looks like he'd have the keys to everyone's homes and those "Questionable Goods" are him selling back to us the stuff he stole from us.

[iron quail]

Can we pet Zeki?

[cedar fractal]

Shouting candles

[loud axle]

My speculation was completely far fetched? I'm SHOCKED

[oak spoke]

lol

[summer obsidian]

I'm not sure I trust Zeki to give us "fair" prices...

[fringe minnow]

[sand barn]

Not the far fetched speculation... anything but that!

[gentle hearth]

I had the same feeling😂

[viscid charm]

He should also say our names!

[iron quail]

I'm sure if you give Zeki a head pat he'll give you a discount

[void imp]

pretty on point

[rose cedar]

could be included in questionable goods.

[novel plank]

I love how Nel said "it's up" and people immediately think she means Pre-Alpha LOL

[left pebble]

Oh true haha

[fringe minnow]

Tbh, i think by questionable goods, he means human world items, they used to exist but dissapeared right?

[little silo]

Can we equip body augmentations like Zeki?

Flesh is weak!

[oak spoke]

that is funny

[warm veldt]

I have come to tell you that I love Zeki and I care he

[regal swallow]

😏 General store is southeast

[celest maple]
