[warm plover]

[clear wraith]

You can come over for lunch and pet the yakmoos.

[static mango]

Overflow... Overflow... We go way back man, gimme the goods

[warm plover]

Good night!

[keen seal]

[warped cliff]

Good morning gamers

[static mango]

Night

[warped cliff]

[clear wraith]

Aunt Dee will make tea and listen to you cry it out when you find out 70% of your guildmates are dating the same NPC as you.

[faint dawn]

Can we only have 1 home... or multipul buildings... hmmm

[warm plover]

palia

[keen seal]

and then you can round out the night by watching the latest episode of *Chapparette!

[uncut bear]

If you have enough friends you can have many building

[tranquil cosmos]

Sharing is caring

[icy tusk]

The Bonk Force will help mitigate that, yes

[loud axle]

Ugh I hope it snows in Palia. Living in Florida, I NEVER see snow.

[static mango]

@worthy osprey I'll call you amethyst

[icy tusk]

I always love snowy terrain in games

[brazen temple]

waiting for pre-alpha

[faint dawn]

I mean on the same plot... like can i have 2 tents... can my home be small rooms scattered around the plot you need to walk through the outside to get to?

[gusty glacier]

Can I go full recluse mode in palia? I want to wear a hooded robe and have my own face reveal story arc

[uncut bear]

That’s an interesting idea… who knows

[worthy osprey]

ayyy thats awesome im an amethyst fan

hi though!!!

[keen seal]

ooh, i love this!!!

[static mango]

Couldn't tell 👀

Pearls gotta take the 🍰

[clear wraith]

I'm curious to find out myself. I'd love to have a little crafting shed or a guest cabin.

[worthy osprey]

i know right 🤸‍♂️

[faint dawn]

See? Stuff like this.. would make me happy..

[summer obsidian]

I'm actually still in shock that = about a week

[faint dawn]

Well a week kinda marks the 4th week

Which is almost a month..

[novel plank]

🥰

[uncut bear]

But still…

[summer obsidian]

I know, but just always felt further away than that 😛

[loud axle]

@neat bone - No stamina in the game. They tried it and hated it. As for climbing, we know there's a jump button... and the gliders obviously, but they've also said this: "How open is the world? Open but Curated. If we go too open you never squash the bugs. We definitely want environment traversal to be super fun though. You saw the glider ya?" Hope that can answer your question some. 🙂

[novel plank]

One entire month of being in this lovely discord with this wholesome community already???

[uncut bear]

It’s been a blast

[loud axle]

Has it really been an entire month? 😮

[static mango]

Actually true, I didn't even realise

[summer obsidian]

not quite yet, three weeks right now, next week is 1 month

[warm plover]

I KNOW RIGHT
i was ready to wait like two months

[loud axle]

No not quite a month, 20 days

3rd, right?

[faint dawn]

Tomorrow marks 3 weeks.

21 days

[static mango]

@upbeat shale pogU

[faint dawn]

Btw stream in less than 15 hours..

[loud axle]

@summer obsidian 👀 Hope you're enjoying my beats lol

[summer obsidian]

oh I am! 😄

[uncut bear]

The stream should be absolutely packed

[brave thorn]

Has it been that long already?

[faint dawn]

Im expectong between 2-5k

[loud axle]

Oh noooo, Nel said probably only 30 people will show up lol

[pure jolt]

Time to stay up way too late, pass out and miss it

[loud axle]

"My sweet summer child..."

[uncut bear]

Yeahh that seems about right xD

[static mango]

Oooo BOI fan? A man with taste

[faint dawn]

I bet 3 pebbles.. 2-5k

[summer obsidian]

At least if it moves to Twitch, it will be auto-recorded so I can watch it after more easily 😛

[loud axle]

Luckily I'm off tomorrow so I'll be here! 😄

[pure jolt]

What can I say, there's just something about crying on poop

[faint dawn]

Omg..if pali get channel points... they should make it "pebbles" haha

[tidal cairn]

saaame

[static mango]

Been playing the game on and off for years, the cracked version but I bought it this year and played a shit ton

[warm plover]

WAIT IS HER NAME LUIZA AND NOT LAURISSE

[static mango]

Whomgalol

[summer obsidian]

I think so, I read that earlier and thought it might be Luiza

[warm plover]

AAAAAAAA

im gonna cry im so stupid

[hidden lynx]

hey overflow! 😄

[pure jolt]

It really is fun, it just ticks all the right buttons for rogue-lites for me. It's become my standard of comparison for any rogue like/lite games

[summer obsidian]

Hey Britt!! ❤️ ❤️ ❤️

[static mango]

The king of indie games B)

[faint dawn]

1.Palia gets channel points on twitch
2.rename themto "Pebbles"
3. the only thing you can spend pebbles on is "make einar happy"
4. Profit?

[patent adder]

Stop it 🥺

[loud axle]

Did you see her tweet?

[hidden lynx]

how was your anniversary weekend? was it good for you???

[tidal cairn]

that, gungeon, and sts are my top 3

[warm plover]

[static mango]

There's mist outside 👀

[tidal cairn]

one of my wow guildies has over 1200 hours in isaac. he is insane

[summer obsidian]

for WU? I haven't been playing since I got my pooch! But I did have a great weekend at the beach 😛

[hidden lynx]

hahah okay xd

hey Vespa if you have Disney+ highly recommend you watch Luca >.>

[pure jolt]

All great games Sad to say I got burnt out on gungeon and sts though, Gungeon idk why, but sts because I always end up trying to brute force my way through and lose

[hidden lynx]

So we have a WEEK! a whole WEEK to wait to see who gets to play in the pre-alpha and honestly I am SO excited...

[tranquil cosmos]

SAME

[hidden lynx]

even if i dont get it I am HYPED and I hope some of you awesome cool people get in!

[warm plover]

oh wait luiza is nb my bad, i mean they

[tidal cairn]

i wanna try phantom abyss, it looks neat

[hidden lynx]

youre so wonderful for correcting yourself!

[warm plover]

I would've felt bad if I just left it x.x

[loud axle]

I'm so glad you were able to bring them such happiness today! 🙂 I haven't seen them here on the Discord yet to give them my love!

[tidal cairn]

but im deep in MH Rise and Mass Effect LE and 9.1 is out next week for WoW so that is enough time commitment to video games already. throw pre alpha into that if im lucky enough to get it lol

[pure jolt]

Okay.. Uh, what makes you think I'd enjoy it?

[hidden lynx]

reasons >.>

[pure jolt]

I saw that one, it looks a little bare imo though, I'll give it a whirl once it fully releases though

[pure jolt]

?

Does it feature italian scooters?

[tranquil cosmos]

FLCL has an italian scooter

[hidden lynx]

maybe...

[warm plover]

the classic fooly cooly rec
i honestly still dont know what that show is about

[pure jolt]

I see Well It's on my second monitor at this very moment

[hidden lynx]

Enjoy!! 😄

[static mango]

Aight I'm heading to bed, gnight enemies

[pure jolt]

G'night snoopy

[tidal cairn]

[uncut bear]

The server has finally cooled off

[faint dawn]

Mhm

That was nuts today!

[summer obsidian]

I'm out tonight too. See you tomorrow Palia fam! Can't wait for the stream!

[faint dawn]

Nighty overflow!

[uncut bear]

Goodnight friend

[gritty veldt]

hello homies

[uncut bear]

Now is when we’ll see who is gonna stay and become a more rooted as members of the community. I look forward to meeting them

FISH

How are you?

[gritty veldt]

good bc i’m about to eat ice cream

[loud axle]

This chat already slowed WAY back down.

[gritty veldt]

how are y’all doing ?

[warm plover]

Im glad I missed the onrush of people

[uncut bear]

I’m well

[patent dust]

feesh

[gritty veldt]

paandah

[gusty glacier]

Hopefully we’ll get a offical sub reddit soon 🤞

[patent dust]

theres a sub reddit set up but its currently private

they probably wont open it until full release

[regal swallow]

[faint dawn]

Devs got the subunder lock and key

[gusty glacier]

Oh nice. I’m in the unofficial one atm

Still a good sub

[patent dust]

ive resisted the urge to go on the unofficial one cause i already know id spend too much time answering quesitons and correcting people

[faint dawn]

...

[gritty veldt]

keep on resisting lol don’t want you to wear yourself out

[faint dawn]

Yeah.. its likelyjust filled with questions..

[patent dust]

that sounds bad but i just hate misinformation

[gritty veldt]

understandable

[patent dust]

cause then people get angry about things that were never true

[regal swallow]

And if you need a Pal hug you got me Fish and Anastasia and many more!

[warm plover]

Omg we can finally stop saying

[patent adder]

What kind

[gritty veldt]

imagine getting pressed over a game that was just publicly announced a few weeks ago couldn’t be me

[warm plover]

wait was the name Palia derived from the word pal

[loud axle]

We don't know the full story, but we DO know it wasn't their first choice lol

[patent dust]

i dont think theyve ever actually answered the origin of the name

[uncut bear]

Now is when has the most impact

[gritty veldt]

unfortunately the official pronunciation is paylia

[warm plover]

fair enough to all of those

[patent dust]

just ended up as chosen after a LONG list of previous names

[faint dawn]

Like how people seem to think neighborhoods are going to be large instances of multipul people's homes..

Thats one of the biggest misinformations i see circling all the time..

Its just a different term for guild..

[hearty charm]

Palia like PAL EU/OCE territory. Oceanic servers confirmed.

[warm plover]

i like saying pah-lia
someone at s6 says paella

[gritty veldt]

chocolate mud slide and waffle cone swirl 👀

[warm plover]

I mean one of the options for the survey was Australia so. probably

[hearty charm]

Won't touch it if there isn't 🙂

[warm plover]

X.X

[patent adder]

Ooh.. my favorite is black raspberry chip 🤤

[alpine python]

And second questionnaire, done!

[warm plover]

What games did you put in your answer? I wrote Pokemon Diamond

[gritty veldt]

ooo that sounds delicious, i love raspberry and chocolate. i’m a mint chocolate chip kinda person

[warm plover]

only if you want to share

[alpine python]

@warm ploverWildstar

[patent adder]

If you try black raspberry chip you'll be that kind of person 🥰

[cinder wave]

same here, just got done

[faint dawn]

Which one?

[warm plover]

the last question in the second questionairre

[gritty veldt]

i’m sure!! ive put chocolate chips in raspberry sorbet before it was very tasty

[patent dust]

i think a better question is what you would change :P

[warm plover]

the one about something youd like improved in a game you adore

I kind of wanted to say Hollow Knight but theres literally nothing I'd change about that game

[alpine python]

I basically wrote about the accessibility problems Wildstar had, how it was marketed to hardcore raiders and old school MMO players at the cost of all the cool social and building stuff that the game had.

[uncut bear]

I said state of decay 2. Loved playing that game and building up my base but the multiplayer was so buggy

So I said that improving the multiplayer Seoul’s be my first choice

[warm plover]

Wow you guys had way better answers than me. I wrote that I wanted a better system for getting closer to your pokemon in pokemon diamond...

[regal swallow]

Said Skyrim then multiplayer party

[alpine python]

I don't know if there are any "better" or "worse" answers

[faint dawn]

Oh.. the fact fallguys needed a creator area for players tomake tracks/minigames that players would then vote for to then be ported over to the main game as an origional creation..
Giving the game more courses.
Its now more community ran and the devs can focus on important things...
And creative types have an outlet

[alpine python]

No idea what they're looking for 🙂

[gritty veldt]

my response was so basic lol but at this point it’s basically a lottery so w/e

[patent dust]

runescape, wish they wouldnt listened to the community more instead of just throwing things in and going crazy with the MTX

[cinder wave]

@regal swallow did you ever see the multiplayer mod?

[pure jolt]

I actually put hollow knight The thing I'd change being respawn times in the hall of gods

[uncut bear]

If I could I’d have a mudkip

[gritty veldt]

yeah all we really know is that they want some variety in the alpha pool

[warm plover]

👁️

[patent dust]

skyrim together had so much potential :/

[regal swallow]

Was buggy for me

[patent dust]

they had to start over cause steam was being awful about network connections

[tidal cairn]

said it before already but i wrote about system bloat/borrowed power in wow and how every time an expansion/major content release happens you feel like your character regresses a bit until you hit the new max and unlock the new systems that are inevitably going to get removed just like the last ones. and the cycle goes on and on lol

[warm plover]

I never did the Hall of Gods. That stuff's hard

[cinder wave]

personally I wrote about having more stuff to use materials on in breath of the wild, straight armor upgrades was a bit lame imo

the cooking stuff was cool tho, lots of neat stuff

[pure jolt]

It iiis, which is why I want to get to my 500th kill attempt faster, those few extra seconds drag on

[tidal cairn]

clear, consistent character progression across content updates is huge for me, whether its in a game about fighting world ending demons and old gods or just fishing and farming and hunting and such

[warm plover]

vividly remembers the bdg video where he cooked a bunch of botw recipes in one go

[uncut bear]

Yes

[cinder wave]

that was a good video lol

[uncut bear]

Love that vid

[tidal cairn]

oh man some of that food looked vile

[warm plover]

the p o r g y

[uncut bear]

Went we talking about that yesterday?

[warm plover]

I'm glad everyone knows what im talking about immediately

[uncut bear]

Oh that steamed porgy looked so bad

[warm plover]

oh yeah it was mentioned yesterday

[faint dawn]

One other thing.. ffxiv.. other than the housing content.. idk how i feel about content that is made... then dies like eureka.. or..bozja southern front once endwalker comes...

[warm plover]

just use carrots in place of every other vegetable

[tidal cairn]

my favorite is either the kingdom hearts plot explanation or the kirby vid

[gritty veldt]

the,,, the steamed what now

[uncut bear]

Porgy

[warm plover]

its a fish

[uncut bear]

It’s a fish

[warm plover]

jinx

[uncut bear]

Jinx

[gritty veldt]

D:

[warm plover]

:(

[uncut bear]

Double jinx

[gritty veldt]

that is upsetting to me bc what kinda name

[warm plover]

its like porky

[patent dust]

makes me think of porky's

[pure jolt]

Shmorgy Porg

[uncut bear]

If cooked properly it’s good. They just had no time

[cinder wave]

and no ingredients lol

[uncut bear]

That too

[cinder wave]

The dang carrot

[warm plover]

Unraveled is such a good experience. its just bdg suffering for like 20 minutes over and over

[uncut bear]

This recipe needs vegetables… carrots

[cinder wave]

on the one hand I get why they picked a less flavorful vegetable to put in literally everything but I do feel like they did some dishes dirty

[uncut bear]

I would have done steamed broccoli

[warm plover]

I think it was a Terrible Idea to use carrots but it was funny so

uh. anyway sorry for going so offtopic

[uncut bear]

Oh right

This is palia chat

QUICK TALK ABOUT PALIA

[warm plover]

UUHHHH TAUS CUTE

[gritty veldt]

excited to build my hut :3

[uncut bear]

[patent dust]

jina best npc

[warm plover]

[gritty veldt]

what happened to the pebbledrop pint ?

[warm plover]

[uncut bear]

It’s under construction

[gritty veldt]

[patent dust]

i mean tick as in involuntary reaction

[uncut bear]

I’ve been looking for patrons and employees alike

[warm plover]

@celest maple The first map has been said to be comparable to BotW but a bit smaller

[gritty veldt]

i figured but i had to confirm

[uncut bear]

I have a reputation to upkeep

[gritty veldt]

what about milkshakes

[uncut bear]

Those to

[warm plover]

damn i cant find it

Where did they mention the map size? its not in the faq

[loud axle]

[warm plover]

Ah, okay, good. I wasn't making it up

[uncut bear]

Panda beat me to it!

It was a fair race

[patent dust]

under 'world' somewhere

[uncut bear]

Which activity are y’all looking forward to most?

[cinder wave]

either exploring or fishing

[gritty veldt]

fishing and exploring !!

[mellow verge]

I wanna see CAVES

[celest maple]

exploring and the feeling of no pressure to do anything in particular.

[cinder wave]

I'm all about spotting little secrets and hopping around awkward slopes to get higher than I'm supposed to be

[mellow verge]

Nice caves with many branching paths

[gritty veldt]

hanging out with the homies too

[ocean smelt]

We love the homies

[uncut bear]

Nothing better than being with the homies

[mellow verge]

slav squats

[warm plover]

we love the homies in this household

[buoyant heath]

What a fantastic set of second survey questions

Got my brain churning

[cinder wave]

mainly the one question tbf

[uncut bear]

We all thought about it seriously. Though our answers varied from in depth to simple and short

[mellow verge]

I went simple and short

[ionic portal]

I wrote quite the paragraph

[gritty veldt]

yeah,,,,, really had a hard time remembering what email i used

[buoyant heath]

I spent a decent amount of time thinking about the Region question

[cinder wave]

and here I thought I was the only one

[gritty veldt]

i also had to look up my disc tag bc i have no idea what the numbers are lol

[warm plover]

I just instantly clicked australia...

<-- somehow remembers his discord tag all the time

[buoyant heath]

You give a person an option to put Antarctica...

[uncut bear]

I had to go back and check my tag too…

[ionic portal]

It's exciting to know that invites will be sent in about a week

[celest maple]

isn't it just in the lower left hand corner of the screen of the discord app?

[gritty veldt]

i don’t think that’s really set in for me tbh

[uncut bear]

I was on my phone

[celest maple]

If not I may have done that part wrong.

[buoyant heath]

Not on mobile

[uncut bear]

So I had to back out completely and pull it up

[cunning kelp]

Just finished the 2nd survey! Hope to get an invite.

[warm plover]

kinda wanna boost the server to be pink but also i dont think the server needs any more boosts...

[celest maple]

@buoyant heath oh, ok, didn't know that, thanks 🙂

[gritty veldt]

i was on my phone as well, discord was not working on my computer 🙃

[warm plover]

When I woke up this morning and read that it was a week I was like
W H A T

[uncut bear]

The excitement was through the roof

[mellow verge]

Doesn't matter lol

[gritty veldt]

i was about to go somewhere when the announcement was made so i only saw a glimpse of the chaos but that might be an understatement

[mellow verge]

[uncut bear]

[gritty veldt]

[uncut bear]

Lol nice

[mellow verge]

I bet you're fun at parties

[warm plover]

I woke up way after the announcement so I missed the entire onrush of people

[mellow verge]

It's good you did, it was a bit much

[warm plover]

yeah, i can only imagine...

[uncut bear]

It was pure chaos
Glorious hype filled chaos

[ocean spindle]

because I don't shout how much I think the party is great the whole time? Even though there are no drinks, no food, the doorway is too small so not many people can fit in? But all that stuff is coming later, after the party has started. Just have to wait 3 months +

[buoyant heath]

I have measured expectations, given the number of enthusiastic fans of the game so far. I'm happy it's being made, and will be glad if I get to contribute to it. I was lucky enough to be selected pretty early to test the new Flight Simulator from Microsoft, along with a lot of other products over the years, and in some cases, I've felt like the feedback and testing has improved the end result.

[warm plover]

i remember biomutant having a cute animal on the cover and thats all i know about it
also the fact that its $100 aud

[ornate ocean]

Tamala, the Potion Seller

[ionic portal]

I don't think this game will fall prey to hype-induced disappointment because we already have a pretty good understanding of the game's goals, and over 1k players will have access to a brief look at the game as it is developed.

[warm plover]

potion seller, im going into battle and i require your strongest potions

[ocean spindle]

that's what they said about cyberpunk.
and Outriders.
and Biomutant.

[warm plover]

if i get picked im actually going to have to read the nda ahaha

[ocean spindle]

next game I might be saying and Palia

[mellow verge]

You're comparing an mmo to AAA games that can't keep promises

[ionic portal]

Those games didn't have pre-alphas did they?

[warm plover]

Hey, please don't be a bummer in here

[shrewd fiber]

Imagine shouting at people having fun...

[ocean spindle]

Outriders and Biomutant aren't AAA games

[warm plover]

I understand you want to temper your expectations, but...

[mellow verge]

Plus, they rushed stuff because of whiny gamers

[uncut bear]

No negative comments please. We’re not here to bash on other games.

[shrewd fiber]

If people want to hype, let them, they aren't hurting you

[upbeat shale]

pog

[warm plover]

[mellow verge]

But yeah you're kinda yucking on people's "yum"

[shut hinge]

I think the hype in here has been fairly measured all things considered

[cold mesa]

Those games made promises. This game hasn't yet. We are just here to vibe.

[ocean spindle]

its no one's yum, as we don't have it yet

[warm plover]

mcelroy fan?

[ocean spindle]

All we have is a description of the flavour

[mellow verge]

[warm plover]

Ah...

i dont know that person, sorry

[mellow verge]

Lol he made buzzfeed? I think

[whole crag]

i know no one here

[uncut bear]

But we know you noir

[buoyant heath]

I collected stickers when I was young

[uncut bear]

[ionic portal]

There are so many people in this discord it's hard to befriend any one person

[mellow verge]

?

[obsidian marlin]

[torpid sandal]

youre my friend now

[buoyant heath]

That's how the Zefrank video about yucking your yum starts

[torpid sandal]

we're having soft tacos later

[warm plover]

Ive made a few friends here, mostly the people that hang around a lot

[uncut bear]

I have befriended multiple people. But it’s more like a bunch of people become friend over time

[mellow verge]

I'm around daily! And joined some servers with people from here

[ionic portal]

hello friend, we're having soft tacos later

[mellow verge]

Oh yeah, I forgot lol

It's been a while since I saw that

I love his animal videos, there always good for a laugh. And yeah his stuff about life is good

The yuck on yum really stuck with me since I can't get why some people are negative about what others enjoy

[low goblet]

whats the dev's twitch for game related streams?

[warm plover]

i premuse they'll link it when they announce the stream

[low goblet]

i think im the first follower lmao

[ionic portal]

They are planning on giving testers NDA which includes no streaming

[mellow verge]

Unless they've got over 50 who want to watch

we dont know the twitch yet

[warm plover]

I bought nitro a few minutes ago

[patent dust]

but nel did set one up

[cold mesa]

[mellow verge]

They're out of sync nice

i think i found it but discord just removes the link

[ionic portal]

[unkempt quartz]

Someone have chuu's pic or something??

[buoyant heath]

His "Invocation for Beginnings" has a special place in my heart. The true caveat to No Yucking Your Yum is that it has to be behavior that isn't harmful to themselves or others. If someone's yum is being toxic to strangers, then yeah, get in there and yuck that nonsense.

[low goblet]

or its a really good troll account which took the name to try and sell

[whole crag]

[uncut bear]

Einar is definitely one of the more interesting characters to me. He’s the only golem we’ve seen

[torpid sandal]

i love him

[warm plover]

all the time is einar appreciation time

[patent dust]

yeah that would be their bot, it will remove links like that tto prevent people from promoting themselves

[uncut bear]

Give him all the pebbles 🪨

[ionic portal]

Can I give him larger rocks

[shrewd fiber]

I like what I've seen of this game and i hope the farming isn't too complex

[low goblet]

im the single follower of the account i think is right, will see tomorrow if i get a live email hah

[mellow verge]

Saw a good one recently by joshstrifehayes about how people retain negativity, a good watch

[torpid sandal]

anyways lads im on hour 31 of conciousnees i think im gonna sleep now

[warm plover]

WGHY ARE YOU STILL AWAKE

[fringe minnow]

If you have the epic launcher you can get 3 months for free, that's why the amount of boosts tripled

[mellow verge]

Pocket sand of sleep

[torpid sandal]

[warm plover]

GO TO BED BEANNNNNNNN

[gritty veldt]

unsure, character description specifies pebbles, but you can try? he might still appreciate it

[torpid sandal]

kinda dont wanna now

[buoyant heath]

I appreciate you telling me about it!

[uncut bear]

Sleep

[ionic portal]

I hope it is pretty simple, put cabbage seed in ground, water, and harvest cabbage

[gritty veldt]

oh! i have epic launcher

but rn discord isn’t working on my computer so i gotta fix that first 🙃

[uncut bear]

If you sleep bean then you’ll magically pass time to get to the stream sooner

[shell phoenix]

Because there are so many registered users for the pre alpha: Will there still be only 2000(?) Keys or did they raise the amount of keys?

[warm plover]

1400

[uncut bear]

It’s only 1400

[shell phoenix]

oh lol

[gritty veldt]

i think it’s still 1400, if they change that number they’ll let us know

[uncut bear]

I think they’ll leave it as is. Maybe add more every once in awhile who knows

[shell phoenix]

ok so the chance for the key is pretty low. But i am still super hyped

[gritty veldt]

rather than add more they’ll probably just let people invite some of the homies

[torpid sandal]

....tempting

[warm plover]

I think I might have a chance to get in if they need Australian players for some reason
then again, the chance is fairly low..

[chrome cipher]

They may have "phases" of invites depending if the first keys given out are successful

[uncut bear]

Magic spell! Sleepy bean!

[warm plover]

Nighty night Bean!!!!

[uncut bear]

Keep your hopes up my feline friend

[torpid sandal]

night see yall

[warm plover]

Meow meow meow

[torpid sandal]

proabbyl not on the stream chances are i aint waking up lmao

[gritty veldt]

they are looking for a variety of testers ! so that could work in your favor potentially

[uncut bear]

We’ll ping you

[mellow verge]

Yeah but servers are NA only rn

[uncut bear]

Though it probably won’t wake you

[torpid sandal]

im on silent, and anyways, i sleep though alarms

[uncut bear]

Then it’s up to chance

[torpid sandal]

fun fact: i fell asleep at a metallica concert

so uh, heavy sleeper

[cinder wave]

anyone know of the possibility of getting a vod of the stream if it does end up being disc only?

[warm plover]

It's ok I'll probably also have to watch the VOD

[uncut bear]

That sounds impossible but its impressive nonetheless

[warm plover]

Nel will be trying to get a vod

[torpid sandal]

ive fallen asleep in many, many weird places

okay gn

[cold mesa]

Making the choice to stay awake all night or go to bed early

[mellow verge]

I think it'd be best if they just went straight to twitch and didn't do a discord stream, there's definitely gonna be over 50 watchers

[gritty veldt]

another baby gamer/ive seen this before but at this point i’m too afraid to ask question: what does vod stand for

[warm plover]

Night night bean

[gritty veldt]

gn bean!

[mellow verge]

Video on demand

[lime forge]

where’s the link to invite people

nvm

[warm plover]

Lol imagine if 3000 people or more go to watch the stream

[gritty veldt]

omg 80k 😳

[uncut bear]

I’ll be seeing you all there

[warm plover]

Stands for video on demand, basically a video (archive) of a stream put up after the stream is over so people can still watch it even if they missed it

[mellow verge]

I'm gonna try to wake up early enough, what was the time again?

[warm plover]

uhh

[low goblet]

remind S6 that VODs on Twitch are turned off on default 👀

[warm plover]

11 AM PDT?

[uncut bear]

11 am

[cold mesa]

Yeah, Discord is thoughtful. But there really are a lot of people who will want to watch.

[uncut bear]

11am PDT*

[gritty veldt]

love that i’m in the same timezone as s6

[mellow verge]

Oh that's 1pm cdt so that's great

its about 2 am for me so hahahahaha

[uncut bear]

Ohhhhh

Are you gonna pull a late night rin?

[warm plover]

Maybe

[ionic portal]

we will see you there then 🙂

[gritty onyx]

So I did the survey and idk if I need to do it again. I am on mobile and when I hit submit it just brought me back to the blank survey page again >.<

[serene tundra]

Hi guys

[warm plover]

I stayed up fairly late yesterday (around 4 am) since I was having a panic attack. might do that again lmao

[uncut bear]

I’m not totally sure

Evening everyone! I was out all day yesterday and today. How is everyone? I hope well!

hello folks

[warm plover]

[uncut bear]

I’m well! How are you?

[uncut bear]

Honk

[elder scaffold]

Doing great, really need some rest, but wanted to check in and see how the chuu-mmunity was doing.

[warm plover]

oh chuumunity is a good name

[uncut bear]

We’re all hyped and ready!

[elder scaffold]

I'm hyped, but also am ready for the reality check of doing actual focus testing.

[warm plover]

there was a lot of hype in the wee hours of the morning when I was asleep. glad i missed it

[uncut bear]

Good point

[warm plover]

I'm scared about how we'll have to deal with people groaning about how they didn't get prealpha keys...

[gritty veldt]

yeah i think most people are pretty aware of the odds but there will definitely be some disappointment

[buoyant heath]

I read that as Chum-munity which both sounds friendly, and also like it has something to do with trying to get sharks to come near your boat

[gritty veldt]

i’m hoping they’ll increase the slow mode for this channel

[elder scaffold]

I think if someone is griping about not having pre-alpha access, they are likely not really there to test, but to "play" a new game.

[warm plover]

Yeah me too

[buoyant heath]

Does increasing slow mode mean making it slower?

[warm plover]

I think their expectations are set wrong hahaha

[uncut bear]

This community is pretty mature so I’m hoping it’s minimal. I’m hoping it’ll be more “congrats!”

[warm plover]

it increases the delay between when you can send messages. right now it's 5 seconds

[gritty veldt]

i think? idk what the right term is but that’s what i meant lol

[warm plover]

well... the lurkers will come out of the woodworks to gripe i think, maybe

slowmode is correct

[buoyant heath]

I'm all for having to spend a moment to think about what you want to say, even if I don't often practice that myself.

[gritty veldt]

i think it will be pretty civil overall

[elder scaffold]

@uncut bear I hope so.

[uncut bear]

This community is great so even if there are it won’t last very long

[gritty veldt]

yeah, mostly i just don’t want messages coming in so quickly that it puts strain on the eyes

[warm plover]

Mm. I should try having more faith

[uncut bear]

On a more positive note. Do you think they’ll have exotic fish like they did animals?

[warm plover]

Yes!!!

[ruby oasis]

pog

[cinder wave]

question that they might have answered, will fish have randomized measurements or just types?

[elder scaffold]

Yea, the chuumunity thus far here has been pretty awesome. Its so nice to see a non-toxic developer discord, especially surrounding an mmo title.

[elder scaffold]

I hope so Milk, though we'll have to see. I can't wait to spend hours fishing and listening to music.

[uncut bear]

They have a bunch of information on fishing here!

https://docs.google.com/document/u/0/d/1ECHPsDvyC0KP6ldYRaeFtmR0mhwBVGckWEPcH_zNc7E

[warm plover]

i havent seen any dads here i think, just moms..

[willow apex]

I'm a dad of 3

Oh yeah, looking forward to using my kids to farm gold in this game...jk.... <_______<

[fallow pagoda]

@warm plover lol dont know about cool mum (have to ask the kids ) but yes iam a mum of 4

[mellow verge]

"cool" parents

[elder scaffold]

My main focus when/if I get to test will be utilizing all the tricks I've learned from 30 years of mmo's and trying to dupe items. Nothing worse than those bugs going live.

[uncut bear]

But… you’re dad jokes

[warm plover]

listen if youre trying to play games with your kids you automatically get put in the cool category

[buoyant heath]

@willow apex you've got me beat by 1 kid. I think I'm done though. They are both incredibly interested in playing when this comes out.

[oak raven]

Looking for a fun time in Palia. excited to try it out!

[willow apex]

hah nice, my oldest is 5. I'm working on slowly building him a gaming PC that looks like mine since he wants to copy me. I'll likely get him started on some Minecraft and the sort (as he currently just plays on the Switch)

[mellow verge]

Mine just like Roblox, Minecraft and any other resource building games.

Though we occasionally play Mario party

[uncut bear]

I’m in for helping with that as some known dupes require two people.

[warm plover]

Osunobi, is your pfp from Demon Slayer?

[uncut bear]

That is IF

[willow apex]

yeah @warm plover

[grim aspen]

helloo 👋 just joined this server. can't wait for this game to come out!

[mellow verge]

Welcome

[warm plover]

Ah, cool! I've only watched a bit of it so far. only up to when Tanjiro gets to the city

[uncut bear]

Hello and welcome!

[willow apex]

Sweet! It's a fun series

[elder scaffold]

^^Dad of 2 grown and making their mark on the world as we speak. My daughter hates gaming, my son however is really interested in Palia. We've spent way too many hour playing SDV together.

[fallow pagoda]

@willow apex nice now i feel ancient my oldest 24 this year youngest 10

[warm plover]

parents playing sdv with their kids is so good i love that

[uncut bear]

Loved the new SDV update btw

[willow apex]

lol good on you though, you got the experience 😂

[mellow verge]

T.T I'd love for my son to play games with me but I'm into RPGs and he's not. And I don't like too much resource management but enjoy building

[buoyant heath]

That's awesome! Mine are 9 and 6, and I got them laptops for Christmas so they could play Minecraft and some other games without using mine all the time. I can't really get into Roblox and our Minecraft world and Animal Crossing are getting a bit stale, so I'm hoping Palia will turn out to be another game we can experience together.

[fallow pagoda]

yep oldest loves games

[warm plover]

Maybe you could get into Palia together, Shar? sounds like theres something for everyone

[crystal harbor]

Hello 👋

[uncut bear]

Heyo

[willow apex]

Sweet @buoyant heath !

[warm plover]

palia chat turning into parent chat i love it

[mellow verge]

Maybe, he'll have to see gameplay before he decides. If there's enough gathering and crafting, as has been mentioned, I think he might enjoy it

[elder scaffold]

My son and I have been playing and building a bunch in Valheim right now. Having a blast

He lives all the way across the country (states) so its really the only time we get to spend together

[mellow verge]

I think the thing is, he's 12 and wants to play with his friends, not his parents

[warm plover]

Ah

[lyric ether]

Real question is, who is PercyButterFiend

[willow apex]

All the fellow kindergartens in my kids class (through online) were talking about their Fortnite playing and my kid asked me if he can play that and I'm like "hyell naw you aint! You starting with some classic RPGs first"

[mellow verge]

Sounds like a wholesome way to hang out though

[warm plover]

Fortnite is hard

[elder scaffold]

Start with baldur's gate 1 and 2, then "maybe" you can play fortnite 🙂

[willow apex]

You get it @elder scaffold

[buoyant heath]

The main thing for me is to find positive and inclusive gaming experiences for my kids. Even games targeted at kids can be full of violence or have other issues. I'm not fully against that, I play Among Us with them sometimes, but I also try to expose them to the opposite as much as possible too. Games about creating or working together.

[uncut bear]

Pokemon is what I started with

[lyric ether]

https://imgur.com/4FLNubc Who is PercyButterFiend the world wants to know.

[willow apex]

Yeah precisely.

[loud axle]

One of the dev's cats.

[warm plover]

Games about creating are excellent for kids. I loved Minecraft and Terraria and Lego when I was younger

[elder scaffold]

I started my rpg pc gaming adventure with "pool of radiance" back in the day.

[lyric ether]

cat is first in pre alpha, this adds up.

[warm plover]

theres someone named ApolloBestBoi and i want to know if Apollo is someone's dog

[mellow verge]

My first rpg wasn't a "real" rpg. It was link to the past

[warm plover]

My first rpg was... pokemon diamond i think

[uncut bear]

Link to the past was super fun

[warm plover]

or pearl, dont remember

[elder scaffold]

Well, tunnels of doom on the ti99/4a but that was a crawler, not really an rpg.

[buoyant heath]

LEGO is part of the reason I love Minecraft so much

[gritty veldt]

omg i loved diamond, i was so sad when i lost it ):

[warm plover]

Same :(

[uncut bear]

Totally bought a copy of platinum a year or so ago to play through

[warm plover]

i almost always picked piplup

[buoyant heath]

We had a NES Deluxe with R.O.B. when I was a kid, but my first personal things were a Commodore 64 and 486 DX2

[elder scaffold]

So many old grumblers here 🙂 Love it. Mine was an atari as well. First computer was a ti994a

[warm plover]

never thought I would say this on Discord but I think I'm the youngest person here right now hahaha

[uncut bear]

Lol I doubt it rin

[lyric ether]

My first computer I don' tremember what it was, but it was a junker. Modem kept over heating, me and my bro would put in the freezer for a few seconds just so we can play for another 30mins before it pooped out again.

[warm plover]

Well, out of the people actively in the chat atm

[mellow verge]

Uh I'm not that old but my first system I played on was just a nes and my first pc still used floppy and not cds

[celest maple]

Commodore 64 for me as well. With California Games and Maniac Mansion

[elder scaffold]

Ahh the days of modems. I remember shotgunning two 2400 baud'rs together. My GEnie and AOL speeds were AMAZING 🙂

[mellow verge]

When 48kbps was top speed

[lyric ether]

kids these days don't understand how beautiful it was when a modem sang to you.

[buoyant heath]

I just got nostalgia bombed

[uncut bear]

Ahh floppy disks… the save icon

[celest maple]

Press the Turbo button on your computer case, just for the heck of it

[mellow verge]

I still have some old floppy discs but nothing that can read them

[uncut bear]

I do!

[buoyant heath]

The only thing it did on my 486 was make it a bit louder

[warm plover]

Kids these days don't know what it was like for your DS to randomly not boot and you'd have to take out the cartridge to blow on it then put it back in again

[elder scaffold]

I remember when I upgraded my 14.4 to a usrobotics 56k, and thought - its never going to get any faster than this! 🙂

[lyric ether]

oh man Oregon Trail on floppy was great

Lemmings was pretty great too

I did lemmings on an Amiga 500, great game.

[uncut bear]

Oof

[mellow verge]

We died trying to ford the river

[buoyant heath]

I had a tech support job which was basically knowing connection strings for various modems to optimize them.

[lyric ether]

Oregon Trail, the only rogue like I enjoy.

[celest maple]

Lemmings is made by the same people who later made Mortal Kombat. Excellent game

[warm plover]

oregon trail being described as a roguelike is not something i ever thought id hear

i guess Rogue is an Oregonlike

Omg yes, I played so much Sims

[lyric ether]

To think, rosebud is still around

[warm plover]

I like Tetris...

I'm not very good at it but I like it

[buoyant heath]

Built my dream house on the back of that

[celest maple]

I probably have a tamagotchi dog somewhere. I wonder how old he is now. The game would give him a little cane and beard, it was very cute

[warm plover]

Tetris and Minecraft are two of the best selling games in existence... humans rly do be stacking blocks

[brave drift]

Humans really said "Mmm Blocks. Fun"

[mellow verge]

My parents never got my official tomagachi but I did get a Salem one from Sabrina

[buoyant heath]

This may be real niche, but I played Earl Weaver's Baseball until I wore the keys out as a kid. Still some of the best baseball strategy and realism in a game ever.

[warm plover]

When I think about my old Nintendogs and stuff I get sad when I think about if they're still waiting for me... I like to think they found a new home after I left

Zombies ate my neighbors is coming out on switch soon

[celest maple]

Absolutely jealous of that if you're referring to the tv series. Amazing haha

[warm plover]

I remember when Plants vs Zombies was new...

[brave drift]

My most vivid memory of Sims 1 was when I was a child and I was making a.... "Open" House where everything was just outside, there's no walls and then the dad burned and died.

[mellow verge]

It was! It was a cute little purple contraption with Salem to play with

[warm plover]

That's a classic Sims experience

[mellow verge]

Letting them drown in the pool

[warm plover]

That too

[uncut bear]

Perhaps we should take this to #🎮│other-games 😅

[strange galleon]

Hahaha Tamagotchis 😄 I did not get one but somebody would gift me one as it had a defective contact and each time it would be layd down too hard or hitting against something, it died. It was so hard and guess the longest I was able to keep it alive was 7 days 😄

[celest maple]

Sims was that game where you invited Moritmer around and tried to trapped him in the walls for whatever reason

Beefy Men™️

[buoyant heath]

I was in tech support when Elf Bowling went around in email. One of the first viral trends, and all these people were trying to send 1.2MB files back and forth to each other, and when they weren't able to download the file over their modem connection, it would get stuck in their mailbox and they couldn't get any other mail because it would be clogged behind it. I had to log into thousands of mailboxes manually through Telnet and delete the message so they could get their mail.

I feel like he will be the last 😦 I really want to see the beefster but everyone wants fury characters and elfs QQ

He's an elf too, just thicc

[lyric ether]

not how i would traditionally see an elf

[warm plover]

non skinny elves arent something ive seen very often
kinda excited for the variety in bodytypes they're showing

[buoyant heath]

As a lanky boy, I feel appreciation for both skinny and beefy friends.

[earnest relic]

I like them THICC

[warm plover]

Im personally a fan of slimmer guys but I can appreciate some thiccness

[brave drift]

I like them THICC (2)

Okay, I hit submit with 578 words in my survey response, after some editing.

When I make a not skinny lady she gets ignored haha

I feel you but then again I only draw once in a blue moon dkljhasdh

maybe i made a mistake by being nice and trying to keep mine short sweet and to the point. everyone seems to be submitting the dictionary for their response.

[earnest relic]

[brave drift]

Nah that's valid, everyone has their own pace and style so as long as you're being honest with your response that's still something!

[buoyant heath]

Never question yourself for being succinct. I'm sometimes unable to focus what I have to say down into a concise statement.

[robust edge]

Elfy at all sizes..!

[mellow verge]

When they finally let elf be playable.. not to mention they're shades of violet and indigo

[warm plover]

Same!! i was like "uhhh in pokemon diamond id like it if i could get closer to my pokemon more meaningfully" and that was IT

[buoyant heath]

Part of my reason for editing was to pare it down for whoever has the misfortune of reading through however many of them there are. But I can be a wordy goof when someone says "talk about something you're passionate about and take up as much space as you want"

[warm plover]

I have a headache so I couldn't think of a good response :(

[lyric ether]

I did mine on Tree of Life, how griefing chased me off and what I would of done to improve the situation.

[warm plover]

yall are writing essays

[mellow verge]

Mine was about three sentences, don't feel bad

[buoyant heath]

If your response was that they should let you form closer bonds with your pokemon then it was a very good response.

[lyric ether]

not really mine was under 100 words, likely not even 50.

[warm plover]

:o

I didn't say anything about how I would've done it unfortunately... oops

[brave drift]

I did mine on FFXIV but more like on the social side of it and limitations then I threw in a short Skyrim's limited sense of freedom.

[robust edge]

Loving the diverse angles. I wrote about Space Engineers, and how custom creation is great, but performance and stable coop modes are vitally important, because that's what killed Space Engineers for the gang and me.

[warm plover]

I always liked shortening down Space Engineers to Spengineers

[robust edge]

Spongos.

[sweet locust]

Hey all, did the character revealatream already happened?

[lyric ether]

my focus is always community, to me it's one of the most important pillars in an online game. Once that crumbles everything else follows.

[mellow verge]

Tomorrow

[buoyant heath]

It should happen in a little over 12 hours, if my math is right

[mellow verge]

Yes

[brave drift]

ikr one of the reasons why I love MMOs is that the world feels alive with people in it.

[warm plover]

in about... what is it, 12 and a half hours?

I've always had trouble with MMOs cause it feels like everyone has the same start and end point

idk if i can get into ffxiv cause of it

[sweet locust]

Ah bullocks, in 12.hours I'm @ work. I'll might consider putting it on there then xd. Got late shift anyway

[earnest relic]

I wish more games had the political system of RF Online. Best way to keep an active community over greater objectives than just "have the bigges e-pen" of the playerbase

[mellow verge]

What do you find the end point to be in ff14

[lyric ether]

Yeah Rin, I don't like it too much when everyone is the same much either but the real issue on FF for me is being stuck in a queue just to do the story. It felt really bad playing that game as someone with no friends playing it.

[warm plover]

There'll be a video on demand afterwards if you can't make it. I think Nel said she was trying to get a video

[lyric ether]

I like my queued content being optional content, not mandatory

[warm plover]

:( at least the problem is mitigated a bit by lategame people doing roulettes
...not so much if youre a dps player though

[mellow verge]

Sadly most mmos have required queues now for story content

[warm plover]

I dunno. Im not very sure what goes on at high levels. I would say lvl 80 in all classes but theres also an equipment grind

[mellow verge]

In wow to get the "true"expansion ending you have to do the mythic raid

[mellow verge]

I see. I find fun in mount farming and glamour, not raid or pvp

[lyric ether]

thats different though, FF literally blocks you from progressing at all if you don't do the leveling dungeons

[warm plover]

Ah

[earnest relic]

You'd love PSO2

[mellow verge]

I know. I heavily disagree with the idea of that

[warm plover]

on the bright side FFXIV has La Hee and the twinning.mp4

[mellow verge]

Nope. Not into it lol. Even tried New Genesis

Plus I don't want to pay for cute clothes

[brave drift]

Oh yeah the only reason I became a Healer in FFXIV was just to cut Dungeon Queue short now look at me all stressed and messed up.

[warm plover]

Apparently the Japanese version of PSO2 is having a collab with one of my favorite bands
if it comes out on English servers too i might consider trying it

[earnest relic]

Didn't liked it despite liking farming glamour? Lol

[lyric ether]

it wouldn't be so bad if you didn't have to wait in line. I'm a little impatient. Sitting around doing nothing when I should be enjoying myself frustrates me.

[mellow verge]

Not my style of combat and aesthetic

[earnest relic]

🦥

[earnest relic]

Ah fair enough

[leaden vault]

FF14 story is too long to enjoy. Pso2 is fun except content is super slow

[earnest relic]

Thought it woyld fit for the "enjoying myself" part lol. Brain farting, you know the drill

[mellow verge]

New genesis also started out a laggy mess

[leaden vault]

Its so much better now

[earnest relic]

It's way netter now

Better*

[leaden vault]

Like i said just slow content. Next level boost isnt until winter. Although im gonna play the crap outa braver

[shut hinge]

A lot of the lag was actually because the client wasn’t downloading properly and people had to validate their files

[mellow verge]

My biggest gripe is that I don't like f2p because of bad cash shops. So much rng in that game

[earnest relic]

Me wait Sumonner 😩

[leaden vault]

Summoner is with bouncer i believe and NGS is actually good about it. The only cash stuff is just cosmetic

[lyric ether]

afraid to say f2p games is something we have to get used to. subscription fees is a thing of the past it's rare to see new ones.

[leaden vault]

Plus you can farm free stuff from original PSO2 to use as looks

[earnest relic]

Su is for 2022 anyway

[warm plover]

Speaking of monetisation, I'd like Palia to be subscription based, I think. I know some people would prefer it to be f2p, but the devs gotta keep the lights on somehow...

[leaden vault]

Did they change it? Brave Bounce and Summ were all this year originally

[mellow verge]

I stand where I stand lol
Id rather not have to gamble for cosmetics or things like that.

A lot of f2p reward those with money

[leaden vault]

To be honest. Do like a ESO where its optional sub

[earnest relic]

Yeah. In the last stream before release, Su was shown as for 2022

[warm plover]

I have no idea what ESO does

[mellow verge]

Optional sub would be great

[lyric ether]

I don't disagree with you, I just don't see us seeing too many non f2P games anymore.

[shut hinge]

I’m not sure games without brand recognition can really get away with subs these days I prefer buy once with a optional sub

[leaden vault]

ESO is free to play but those who want to pay for a sub have the option and they get some extra perks

[mellow verge]

It's buy to play with optional sub and a cash shop

[warm plover]

Ah

That might work too

[earnest relic]

B2P with optionnal sub is the way now-a-days

[leaden vault]

Well like Shar said. You buy the game. Then dont pay anything

[shut hinge]

There’s nothing wrong with cash shops unless they give you advantages anyway

[warm plover]

I've never seen it before, didn't know it was a thing, sorry. dont play many mmos haha

[mellow verge]

B2p is a preferable model imo. Makes sure the company gets money

[brave drift]

ESO is buy once and then you can play like 3 Provinces Worth of Questlines, then you can Subscribe to unlock Everything except for the current Expansion which will go free for subscribers the next year

[mellow verge]

Just stupid ESO for locking costume dye behind paywalls

[brave drift]

Also forgot to mention the Base ESO Game Includes Vvardenfell now so that's that.

[earnest relic]

Yeah, tbh, i dont mind paying for cosmetics or convenience (like the material storage on PSO2, this one is god sent)

[warm plover]

I don't know if S6 will want to lock content behind paywalls though. Feels like that's against their spirit of things

[lyric ether]

if it's strictly buy 2 play they would have to release regular expansions to make sure they keep getting money. keeping a server running isn't free.

[leaden vault]

Most definitely. As long as there is plenty to do on launch if we have to pay. Quite a few games would get screwed if you had to pay. Such as PSO2 NGS.. Need plenty of content if youre buying

[mellow verge]

I very much disagree with pay to win

Plus what can you pay to win in a casual game like Palia

[brave drift]

This isn't too bad tho- I guess it means... More Content?..

[earnest relic]

So do we

[leaden vault]

If you add the optional sub that could easily cover that as long as the perks seem worth it.

[brave drift]

Instant Plant Growths? DAKLHJDALH Farming would greatly benefit on P2W if Farming will become a huge thing

[lyric ether]

it's not really bad but it can leave people not wanting to return as the return costs gets to be too much. Like me with the sims, I would like to play but havn't in a couple years so going back in will cost a few hundred dollars.

[mellow verge]

That would go against their ethics

[brave drift]

Oh that's true

[sweet locust]

Cosmetic items/furniture/decorative items/non combat companions are cool

[warm plover]

the reason i wanted a sub model was so they wouldnt have to lock any content for anyone

[earnest relic]

Same with Cities Skylines

[warm plover]

So you just pay your sub and maybe you buy some extra emotes or outfits or something

[leaden vault]

Rin it makes sense but then those who are skeptical wont buy in most likely. Tbh its why i quit most MMOs. They feel like chores and are stuck behind subs or p2w

[lyric ether]

it's why i enjoy sub models as well, games with subs can afford to bundle their expansions.

[warm plover]

I understand. I just don't think they want to lock things for people.

[mellow verge]

Free trials are options

[quasi vortex]

i went to sleep and i woke up and people still talking lol

[warm plover]

the critically acclaimed heavensward expansion--

[brave drift]

Have you heard of

[quasi vortex]

bless ya'll. hi shar

[earnest relic]

And then you have games with subs and a cash shop like wow.

[warm plover]

Of course, there are people all over the world here

[shut hinge]

Tbh if it was a sub this game would have to be really good for me to justify dropping one of my current subs

[leaden vault]

Early on free trials are tough. The wow free trail is honestly pointless. FF14 you can say is worth but i mean its all story and not much real content to it since ff14 is all endgame

[rain crescent]

I would rather just but the game once and have things like cosmetics that you could buy aswell

[mellow verge]

Y'know wows cash shop is a LOT smaller than ff14

[lyric ether]

let's not kid ourselfs WoW went pay to win and F2P the moment they introduced the WoW token

[quasi vortex]

🦀 11$ 🦀

[brave drift]

Would rather sub in FFXIV just to unlock Marketplace cuz i'm a big fashionista myself glamours everything

[mellow verge]

No one ever talks poorly about the 20$ costumes that ff14 sells

[leaden vault]

You have to drop some bank on wow tokens if you wanna get good gear

[earnest relic]

Best trial I ever seen is the Alpha Clones on EVE Online

[mellow verge]

How so? Just farm it

[brave drift]

if i don't look good I ain't enjoying

[warm plover]

fashion is the true endgames of final fashionsy 14

[shut hinge]

That’s because people don’t feel as hard done by square Enix as they do blizzard

[earnest relic]

Black desert and 35€ skin want a word with you

[mellow verge]

Yeah ff14 makes wow cash shop look tiny.

There's so many mounts and costumes and dyes

[lyric ether]

i spend hundreds for cosmetics on path of exile every year.

[leaden vault]

Wow prices became astronomical again. youre paying 20$ for 150k and thats maybe 1/3 price of end game right now

[warm plover]

the fat chocobo is the best mount

[mellow verge]

But everyone is on the wow hate train and ignore ff14 doing the same things

[leaden vault]

plus dont forget new patch is coming so probably double all prices when new raid drops

[mellow verge]

I don't buy tokens so... Idk

[shut hinge]

A lot of the costumes are actually really cheap on ff14 it’s rare to find ones that go over 20 tbh

[shrewd sparrow]

Is this game gonna have raid boss and stuff?

[warm plover]

dont know

[shrewd sparrow]

I looked like Stardew Valley, just chill and farm

[mellow verge]

18$ and gender locked really sucks

[leaden vault]

When i played i just used in game gold for tokens. Was actually smart of them to do that. People keep playing for free and those who want gold can spend money on it

[lyric ether]

I didn't hate WoW's cash shop until they introduced the WoW token.

[shut hinge]

They are removing most of the gender locks slowly

[warm plover]

theres a pinned faq with a lot of stuff, you might find an answer there

[rain crescent]

Yeah it’s supposed to be like stardew

[shrewd sparrow]

cool

[warm plover]

I play a Hrothgar and we aren't allowed to have hats

[shut hinge]

Hats would look very silly on them

[leaden vault]

From everything so far combine stardew.. my time at portia. minecraft with breath of the wild looks. and rpg elements

[mellow verge]

There's still too much gender lock in the game for gear.

Guys can wear 2b dress but females can't wear 9s outfit, it becomes a top with a huge boob window

[brave drift]

I wonder if Humans can use magic in Palia

[mellow verge]

Basically, all the female stuff has to be skirts and girly

[earnest relic]

Fan service is where'smoney at

[leaden vault]

I mean alot of people want the waifu creator so thats the main reason its like that

Some people want cool. Others want to just look at something they like

[mellow verge]

That's why I'm glad Palia showed women in pants

[lyric ether]

i don't mind gender locks, for most games i don't feel like gender is really that important. I mean where is all the gender lock complaints on dozens of other games like Zelda.

[warm plover]

can you imagine? having pockets? wild
yeah im glad too

[mellow verge]

Oh silly me, we're not allowed

[lyric ether]

If there isn't a romance option, my personal opinion on genderlocks is it don't matter.

[brave drift]

Talking about gendered outfits I remember ESO's armors and outfits all literally look the same no matter your gender

and costumes can be worn by any gender

[pliant pollen]

I feel like I take pockets for granted

[warm plover]

I think there's romance and genderlocks still won't matter

[mellow verge]

Playing a main character doesn't bother me, it's that I play guys so I can avoid having to wear skirts in games or look slutty

[lyric ether]

i think with romance genderlocks can be a bit awkward.

[warm plover]

You have not suffered until you have tried to wear women's pants

[brazen fjord]

Any idea why they make butt pockets?

[mellow verge]

Trust me, you do

[brazen fjord]

To break phones and sit bones?

[pliant pollen]

I’m usually trying to get them off. Doing my part.

[mellow verge]

I bought two pair of pants only to find out that the pockets were fake

[warm plover]

games having Distinct Gay Options never made sense to me. Just make everyone romanceable to everyone. If I wanna date the cute horse dude in Rune Factory 4 as a guy what does it matter

[hard crypt]

Sitting on my wallet lets me know I haven't lost it.

[uncut bear]

Scammed

[lyric ether]

if I am to be honest, I don't think guys should wear tights. I've seen it, and spent most my life trying to unsee it.

[warm plover]

I wear them when I'm wearing skirts

[mellow verge]

Well do you agree with that if they made a gay character straight for someone, or do you think they should give npc preferences to make it more real

[modern rose]

I'm generally not a fan of tight clothing

[lyric ether]

it's fine if you wear something over them to cover things.

[brazen fjord]

It pressing into my hip in the normal pockets lets me know I haven't lost it

[earnest relic]

Most games actually doing gender locked exposes themselves to LGBTQIA+ community because "why we can'tbe what we want to be?"

Pso2 clearlydodge that with NGS by removing male/female and going for Body type 1, 2 etc... wear what you want however you want lol

[warm plover]

I think in games about escapism it sucks when rampant homophobia catches back up to me

[pliant pollen]

Character reveal tomorrow. Nice

[rain crescent]

Yeah

[mellow verge]

Story of Seasons pioneers of olive town you can play "genderless" and marry whoever

[warm plover]

you love to see it

[mellow verge]

You just later kinda pick it you want to go by he or she

[tiny iron]

I'm sure it has been asked and answered before but
As streaming isn't allowed, are we still allowed to stream it for our friends here on discord if it's small group of people?

[warm plover]

doubt it

[shut hinge]

No

[mellow verge]

No one

[lyric ether]

NDA is NDA

[earnest relic]

NDA is NDA

[mellow verge]

It's an nda, no talking about it outside designated area

[shut hinge]

Ndas mean you can’t actually tell or show anyone anything you see

[tiny iron]

Okey Ty!
Sucks if my friends get it and i don't, already wanna play so bad 😭

[lyric ether]

some NDA's even include the NDA in the NDA so you can't even say your under NDA or even in the product which is under NDA.

[shut hinge]

A NDA inside a NDA inside a NDA

[earnest relic]

I had a NDA whem working at Ubisoft, god damn thats hard to not say enything when you're a streamer on the side 😂

[mellow verge]

Ndaception

[uncut bear]

Deception! Disgrace!

[warm plover]

NDAs feel like they would be really difficult to navigate if you're under multiple

Reminder to actually read the NDA if you get chosen. thats how those work right

[lyric ether]

when you go into an NDA it's very important to read the entire thing so you know the exact guidelines, that or just pretend like everything around it is involved in the NDA. Second part is usually what I do.

[plush otter]

Good morning/afternoon/evening everyonee

[tiny iron]

Thanks I will do that!
Never been part of any NDA when playing before so don't wanna fuk it up 😅

[lyric ether]

It's pretty easy, NDA is fight club

[earnest relic]

Tbh that what I did, and I got fired for just saying on Twitch I was happy to finallywork at Ubisoft and saying that it qas an incredible opportunity... so... *sighs*

[warm plover]

Maybe I should add something to my nickname in here... theres like seven other people just named Rin

[mellow verge]

You're the only one I've seen talk

[warm plover]

True

[shut hinge]

I pay more attention to profiles pictures than names anyway

[tiny iron]

Rin the first

[carmine cosmos]

Good morning 🙂

[warm plover]

But if people see me reacting with 👋s in the introduction channel or something they wont know which one i am

[long minnow]

am i dumb? i don't see anything about creating an account on palia.com like the survey says to haha

[warm plover]

Good morning!

[lyric ether]

lol so even working for them was under the NDA oof.

[shut hinge]

I think game companies have a thing about employing streamers

[earnest relic]

No. The HR when I was there was completely high Id say. Plenty of other colleagues stated they work at same place without a fuss...

[warm plover]

This is good enough

[mellow verge]

Nice

[patent adder]

Hey friends 😪

[earnest relic]

Well... I stated it clearly when applying, asked again if it was OK when I was hired and in training, and they always told me " as long as you dont say what you see or do here, it's fine"

[warm plover]

Hey Milky

[patent adder]

How are you doin😄

[shut hinge]

Oof also milky I’m still saving you for last but for now I must return to my coffin
