[thorny saddle]

Hi I just joined today, nice to meet you all

[peak escarp]

Omg and smores!

[peak escarp]

Hello hello! I hope you have a very lovely time here!

[hushed rampart]

Hi Medicow I did too.

[thorny saddle]

Thank you! I also play the game in your pfp lol

[peak escarp]

[woeful sedge]

Hope you enjoy it here!!

[thorny saddle]

Hi! Good evening

[peak escarp]

it's so addicting lol

[thorny saddle]

Maybe TOO addictive lol

[peak escarp]

@thorny saddle make sure you do the second survey on the Discord! Did you do the one on the website?

[thorny saddle]

So many hellos, what a friendly welcoming better lol

[thorny saddle]

I already did both, you guys were discussing the second one in chat just as I joined lol

[peak escarp]

Awe!

[peak escarp]

Oh ok LOL! Awesome!

[woeful sedge]

Everyone here is really nice

[small hinge]

Welcome Medicow!

[thorny saddle]

I mean, this seems like an MMO purpose-built to attract the more mature, friendlier gamer community

[small hinge]

My guy! Howdy! And side note: You think the life span of the villager races are like human life span? like Hassian might be "Young Adult" but like 110 like elfs sometimes are, and his mom is like 300

[thorny saddle]

Im going to be a vegan pacifistic and I'm going to stand over dead deer that people have hunted and cry, this is the life I want

[woeful sedge]

We shall mourn

[small hinge]

Tie yourself to a tree and id probably not cut it down 👀

[thorny saddle]

Only a probably!?

[small hinge]

Depends how bad i need that wood

House aint gunna build itself lmao

[jovial moon]

I'll totally become a digital nature activist

[dusty cargo]

@thorny saddle @hushed rampart hello welcome 😁

[jovial moon]

Trees are love!

[thorny saddle]

Have you ever seen that SNL skit about the place that only sells meat from "bad, stupid animals"? I'll let it slide if the tree is a meanie.

[jovial moon]

Hiya 🙂

[thorny saddle]

Also, thank you for joining the cause 🙂

[jovial moon]

Yis lol

[hushed rampart]

Thank you. 🙂

[woeful sedge]

PFFFFF

[lunar tundra]

I was wondering about that! I'd definitely like to see some lore information about it.

[thorny saddle]

I saw a documentary once about how hippy groups are actually like the complete opposite of environmentals despite people confusing them

Like they cause so many wildfires and leave so much trash around and stuff

[woeful sedge]

Oo yikes

[jovial moon]

Buildings made of lumber! How obscene! That's buildings made from Tree corpses! >:o

[thorny saddle]

Stone or gtfo lol

[jovial moon]

lol

[warped oriole]

Just live in a cave! 🪨

[thorny saddle]

But not certain stones...like limestone, which is made of tiny animal corpses

And is the most common stone for caves to be made of because its so porous and melts away under rainwater

[jovial moon]

Dead skin?! You monster! Stop killing the creatures living on you! >:o

[thorny saddle]

I only just learned from my mom like a month ago that my sneakers are made of leather

And I was shocked lol because here I was wearing something I berate other people for

[warped oriole]

Yes!

[jovial moon]

omg that would be fun

[woeful sedge]

Omg that would be so cool

[jovial moon]

Has there been anything that anyone can talk about on how the player housing will work?

[thorny saddle]

Sure a lot from what I've seen

[warped oriole]

If houses are like... a tiny private dimension I hope for cave/waterfall scenery outside of my house

[thorny saddle]

We get plots from a questline, we don't buy plots, which is good to avoid that "Early Starters Only" effect

[jovial moon]

ohhh kk, ty!

[hushed rampart]

I just want a neighbor to wave to when I am in my garden or something. 🙂

[thorny saddle]

And idk, if it's instanced I hope it uses the FF14 style system atleast where your own home isnt its OWN instance but like layered shards of shared neighorbhood regions

[peak jetty]

"Sorry, your house doesn't meet the Palia Building Code, we're going to have to tear it down, waterfall and all"

[remote latch]

the pinned faq has many if not all of the answers to questions that were in the ask-the-team channel and includes housing info that they could tell us

[small hinge]

They also mentioned at the moment you cant terraform and probably no multi story, but the building of your house should be pretty freely shape-able, and im sure theres gardens and outside attractions you can set up

[jovial moon]

Hornet milk

[woeful sedge]

Beeeeeeeeeees

[peak jetty]

Bee meat

[jovial moon]

no u

[hushed rampart]

I'm okay with single story I have bad knees.

[remote latch]

The announcement video 'barely touches the building options' or words to that effect

[woeful sedge]

Aww, hope they implement multi-story eventually, but there’s a lot you can still do with one floor

[peak jetty]

I watched the trailer and couldn't help getting fortnite vibes for some reason

[thorny saddle]

Similiar graphical style, that sort of voxel look I think

[small hinge]

heres the quote "House with 1 floor is pretty small? These kinds of things are not set in stone, as you acknowledge. I don't personally feel that a 1 story home is inherently small though, no. I believe that at least most people should feel like they can build a comfy cottagecore home."

So its definitely not off the table

[peak jetty]

10 story house, but each story is a 3x3 ft square

[woeful sedge]

Nice!

[thorny saddle]

Clearly whoever thinks a 1 story home must be small has never seen some ancient temple complexes lol

[remote latch]

Land and Housing answers from unoffical faq - minus the one story answer

Earning the right to your housing plot is between you and the villagers in the quest line
Your home is intended to be your cozy private space but you can have visitors so you can still show off your decor
Instanced Houses? It'll feel a lot like that. Not committing to instanced housing plots atm
Currently our housing is instanced off in private spaces - there will be ways for players to show off their plots but it will not be so free [edit - as running by someone's home]. As such, there is no shortage of real estate for players to have access to housing.
Both outside and inside are instanced, but your friends can easily access your home if you wish for them to come over. There's no loading screen
Its really easy for friends and neighbors to visit and we'll be adding more controls too
Land Share? In the alpha this won't be possible, no. You can visit a friend's plot and help them build their building though.
Open House? We want players to be able to, but we're still exploring different ways of executing on this since there is a lot to consider to make it a good experience for everyone.
Absolutely, we'll be giving you more and more controls over who can do what as time goes on
No, purchasing and selling commodities and/or land isn't a focus of the game
You will have a lot of control over layout of rooms and stuff. Your interior choices are going to be wild.
You attach/rotate rooms to create your own floor plan
Your plot is fairly private but you can put your house anywhere on it with all kinds of configurations
Second Stories and or Basements/Cellars? Could happen, nothing to share on it at this time
Cooperative housing is a huge goal for us
Stealing? No.
There's no terraforming but the customization options for your plot will get very interesting
The house from the trailer is just scratching the surface of what you can do really.

[peak jetty]

No, purchasing and selling commodities and/or land isn't a focus of the game

Womp womp rest in peace bee meat trading

[woeful sedge]

No loading screens for entering homes is awesome!!

[remote latch]

when I read up on what commodities were I got worried .. as that could mean my dream of growing a farm and selling the produce might not be possible. But maybe we trade instead

[thorny saddle]

"Stealing? No." OH WHAT I have to be LAW-ABIDING ecoterrorist now

[warped oriole]

I'd be really worried if people stole my furniture...

[jovial moon]

owo

[peak jetty]

"I am here to steal your heart" "Sorry sir, stealing is illegal in Palia"

[hushed rampart]

Ooh boy attaching and rotating objects. That sounds fantastic.

[jovial moon]

Kalimah

[thorny saddle]

You wouldn't have to steal it, I'll give it to you lol

I dont need tags. You know who that was for.

[jovial moon]

aww

[remote latch]

And from #❓│old-team-answers-alpha: There will be a lot of choice to be had in your home’s design, including the exterior. Additionally, wherever the system is at launch is just the beginning and we expect the player base will help us decide which new housing customization features we’ll prioritize first.

• Aidan

[hushed rampart]

Oops. That was attachable/rotating rooms. 😑

[thorny saddle]

My real power fantasy is having sufficient seating for guests in my home lol, that would really make me feel like a god

[small hinge]

deeper than Sims depth housing is pretty hype for mmo housing

[hushed rampart]

I think an Open House toggle set to Off by default would work fine.

[thorny saddle]

Killing dragons? Nah fam, I want COUCHES FOR DAYS

[hushed rampart]

Nighty night.

[warped oriole]

You too, El3m3ntsix.

[patent adder]

Later friend ☺️

[indigo kite]

Hi everyone and happy time zone ☺️

[compact valley]

Hiii! Just joined & am now going sleep xD so goooodnight ❤️

[hushed rampart]

Hi MagicPants and welcome/good night Catila. 🙂

[peak escarp]

Goodnight and thank you so much!

[warped oriole]

Happy Time Zone!

[peak escarp]

Hello! 👋

Happy time zone? lol

[compact valley]

It’s a very merry timezone indeed

[indigo kite]

like good morning or night or whatever since no one knows each others time zones

[peak escarp]

Oh gotcha! lol

[warped oriole]

It Sure Is a Beautiful Time Zone!

[compact valley]

Hahaha

[small hinge]

I'm on dev time 😎

[thorny saddle]

It's night-but-almost-morning-time for me

[warped oriole]

...Should you sleep?

[indigo kite]

its afternoon here in Australia

[compact valley]

Same and like now I don’t wanna sleep cuz I’m watching vids bout Palia

[indigo kite]

sleep is important !

[warped oriole]

Palia will be around (or at least this server will) in the morning.

[patent adder]

Hey Magicpants :3

[indigo kite]

Hi Milky! Good to see you, friend 💕

[compact valley]

Yeh that’s truu XX night !

[warped oriole]

Sleep well and dream of nice pebbles.

[balmy slate]

Palia

[patent adder]

Yah always good to see you ^^

[rare saddle]

off to do my daily ACNH chores 🙂 WELCOME to all the new peeps!!

[short thorn]

I finally cleaned up my AC island yesterday and it looks very prim and proper now lol

[peak escarp]

ACNH? 😮

[peak escarp]

OMG I love that game so much! I have actually recently been thinking of getting back to it! I was so glued when I bought it hehehe

I still need to clean up a lot LOL

[sour burrow]

Animal Crossing: New Horizons

[peak escarp]

Oh gotcha! hahaha

I had a feeling that the first part was Animal Crossing lol

[sour burrow]

Haha, yeah! Quite iconic. :p

[hushed rampart]

Thank you! 🙂

[short thorn]

There hasn't been any new updates, but the devs said they'd be coming "soon" haha. But for now I'm just upkeeping my island 😂

[peak escarp]

Coming soon? I am confused lol

[short thorn]

There wasn't any huge summer news or updates, but the AC team said they'd try to do more with it soon, but idk what exactly they're gonna do

[peak escarp]

Oh!

I hope awesome goodies are released! 😯

[short thorn]

I hope so too! Lol

[rain carbon]

Just a reminder - please only use this channel for Palia related topics. For other topics such as other games, you can use the #🎮│other-games channel. Thank you

[short thorn]

Oh sorry, I was switching between channels a lot so I forgot I was on palia chat

[patent adder]

👀 🐢

[short thorn]

Wait a minute, you're not who I think you were

[rain carbon]

🐢 is always 👀

[celest maple]

👀 🐢

[patent adder]

What does this mean 😦 I am 🐐

[short thorn]

The hero we don't deserve, but one we need

[short thorn]

When you did that I thought you were turt for a sec 😂

[peak escarp]

I love coming back to conversations like this lol

[short thorn]

yeye lol

[peak escarp]

We got a turtle and goat in here! Awe hehehe!

I want to own a turtle and goat on Palia!

[short thorn]

A Goatle

[ocean stone]

what would you name them

[short thorn]

I'd name mine pork and beans

[patent adder]

😆

[peak jetty]

Because its delicious?

[rain carbon]

#🍜│food-and-noms 😏 just kidding . . .

[short thorn]

Oh you :p

[peak escarp]

I would name the turtle Shelly and the goat Billy LOL!

[short thorn]

Good names!

[peak escarp]

I love being so original LOL

[rain carbon]

I'd name my goat - "MJ" 😏

[peak escarp]

Thank you so much!

[ocean stone]

milky junior?

[patent adder]

Awwh. Milky Jr. Thank you ☺️

Cinna, we are the same ☺️

[short thorn]

I thought it was a reference to something and I was racking my brain trying to figure it out

[carmine haven]

Hello everyone! I'm new to the community.

[short thorn]

Welcome!

[patent adder]

Welcome to the community, friend. ^^

[celest maple]

welcome!

[hushed rampart]

Hiii @carmine haven. 👋

[ocean stone]

Would you keep a pet turtle?

[carmine haven]

Thanks everyone!

[peak escarp]

AHHHH! Hello there! I love seeing new peeps join our community!

[rain carbon]

[patent adder]

If you've done the survey on the site for a chance at pre-alpha there is also one here on discord that a lot of new people miss ☺️ #📢│palia-news message

[short thorn]

Here here!

[peak escarp]

Milky is on it! Tysm Milky hehehe!

I was gonna but you beat me to it! I do it too now hahaha

[short thorn]

Tbh I forgot about the second survey too 😓

[carmine haven]

Of course I have, I'm so excited for the game to come out!

[untold grail]

Will this game be released next year?

[lilac portal]

Hello, I have been away for several days and I know I have missed some great conversations! The new character art detail mentioned that he helped his mother craft armor. Do we think the armor is just decorative? I recall it being mentioned there was no death or health even, so not sure why armor.

[warped oriole]

Armour looks swag!

[ocean stone]

Welcome back ^^

[short thorn]

Probably a Monster Hunter mechanic where you don't "die" but just faint if you take too much damage from aggro mobs

[lilac portal]

Thank you!

[short thorn]

So you craft armor to last longer in combat and to prevent more serious wounds like possible bleed effects from more dangerous animals

[dusty cargo]

@lilac portal hi again grumps!

[lilac portal]

Seems reasonable that it would function in hunting in some way

[lilac portal]

Hello! Hope everyone is well :)

[hushed rampart]

Hello. 🙂

[short thorn]

Flashing gold and platinum armor

"Mister, what do you usually fight?"

"Little one, I have to wrassle monsters of dark cold eyes, and of slick scales which mere mortals dare not touch"

Goes to fish with bare hands

Just gets beat to death by a sturgeon even with the armor

[ocean stone]

my sleepy brain read this as "Just get bees to death" ._.

[short thorn]

Listening to so much Bee Gees he just dies

[brazen fjord]

Armor probably made it worse, as armor shouldn't be permanent clothing to be worn in all situations (*cough* Minecraft *cough*)

[short thorn]

Face down in the dirt while staying alive is playing faintly

[ocean stone]

wait...you're not supposed to sleep in it?

[lilac portal]

I've gone diving and looked a barracuda in the eye. I'd have preferred one of those old heavy diving suits in that moment. I want to have that as an option for fishing armor lol!

[hushed rampart]

I hate that it covers my outfit in Minecraft. I spend all that time picking something that looks nice.

[brazen fjord]

Not unless you're into that... I don't judge

[short thorn]

Barracudas are scary. But the one fish I don't want to get up close to is the Goliath Tiger Fish. Those teeth man...

[brazen fjord]

[dusty cargo]

I'm also very much hoping you can transmog gear instead of wearing unmatching ugly clothes that just have the best stats

[ocean stone]

the second half of that sentence sounds very much like my pandemic/quarantine wear

Cozy, sufficient coverage, and masks when needed

[lilac portal]

Comfort over everything! 💯

[short thorn]

I finally had a mask made that said "Hearing Impaired" with a pic of a hearing aid on it. But by the time I got it, everyone was starting to not wear masks anymore with it not being as mandated, so I was like "I WAITED FOR A LONG TIME LET ME HAVE THIS"

[warped oriole]

Fair enough!

[hushed rampart]

Just be like, "I'm sick."

[arctic onyx]

we're still under strict lockdown here eventhough cases have gone down to 160 per day

[warped oriole]

"I'm unwell and also here's my cool and useful mask"

[dusty cargo]

Me hahahaha ive had like 0 laundry to do recently because who needs clothes right?

[patent adder]

I wish this was me. 🥺

[lilac portal]

I downloaded that transcription app to have at all times to help with communication in those situations. It really helped when I was training a hearing impaired person that used lip reading pretty heavily.

[ocean stone]

Wear it aggressively at all times. (i don't know what aggressive mask wearing is, but i think it may involve menacingly looking at people and trying ti hold eye contact for too long)

[lilac portal]

Definitely squinting aggressively. I recommend some fine line and wrinkle cream around the eyes if you go too hard at it lol

[short thorn]

Lol

[lilac portal]

I wonder if our characters will age.

[ocean stone]

and if we can get wrinkle cream for them?

[short thorn]

I don't think so since I can imagine some people getting annoyed by their characters not being exactly how they want it at all times

[brazen fjord]

Just put on aviators and gently shake your head when you see people "sneaking" looks at you

[lilac portal]

I'm sure there is a business to be created here. Making wrinkles cream salves from things I fish up lol. "All natural"

[hushed rampart]

I hope not - I have Gerontophobia.

[short thorn]

"Hey, my crow's feet is up here"

[ocean stone]

Maybe there is a fountain of youth in Palia, if you so choose to imbibe it

[short thorn]

I'd like to grow old. I don't want to be alive forever... but I'd like to at least add an extra 100 or 200 years to my life span so I could do literally everything I want to do in this dumb beautiful world

[brazen fjord]

"harvested from only the freshest of wrinkles"

[dusty cargo]

I'll take immortality plz

[short thorn]

Yes, hi, it is me, the doctor of neuroscience, audiology, archeology, professor of many things, CSI investigator, explorer of the pyramids, and local cat expert. What do you need?

[lilac portal]

Only if I can do something about these creeky bones

[ocean stone]

tell us the LORE dear doctor audiologist archeologist professor of things [etc]

[short thorn]

Long ago there was a boom, and it created bugs that crawled out of water, it grew fur, and now it spat out humans so here we are

[warped oriole]

Excellent lore

[ocean stone]

I suspect this was the abridged version...

[brazen fjord]

The great Chapaa

[arctic onyx]

I've kinda accepted that life is short as hell, I'm indifferent about my own death lmao

[lilac portal]

Now those furry bugs are making things too hot

[short thorn]

I'm fine with dying. It happens to us all one day and it's the inevitability of death that we can't avoid, so may as well live life to our happiest and to our fullest, and not worry about the expectations and perceptions of others.

But I still wanna live for a good while lol, don't let me die right now 😂

[arctic onyx]

this ^

[ocean stone]

yes, and yet...permadeath in video games? i cannot handle that

[short thorn]

If you die in the game you die in real life

[arctic onyx]

i need to see the riot mmo with my own eyes before i pass on 😤

[patent adder]

👀 Goat will stay safe then

[hushed rampart]

Why yes Matthew I did just finish watching The Matrix.

[dusty cargo]

Unless your soul gets uploaded to an android

[peak jetty]

The goat eats people... and then they're gonna eat me, nooooo

[short thorn]

Hey if my soul gets uploaded, I can probably make myself look however I want since I'm not bound physically anymore

[arctic onyx]

those android eyes would still be my eyes tho right?

[dusty cargo]

Yep!

[brazen fjord]

Idk man, rapid tech advancements keep making immortality sound a little less boring

[arctic onyx]

bring me the robo body, I've got a transition to make 👁️

[patent adder]

Are you telling me when I pass on I will become Einar

[dusty cargo]

Exactly

[arctic onyx]

milky is gonna become compost for the plants that goats feed on

[short thorn]

Well if I'm here forever, and learn to know everything, life just loses meaning because we're constantly searching for love, fullfillment, answers and etc. The purpose of life for me is to know what I want to know, and pass on knowing that this world is so vast and beautiful, that there are still many more things to discover, if not by me, then for others.

[dusty cargo]

There is always something to learn 😁

[lilac portal]

I'd like to just be inspector gadget. Go go gadget arms

[short thorn]

Theoretically yes.

[ocean stone]

does it come with the theme song?

[short thorn]

Also, would y'all rather know everything about one thing, or a little bit about everything ever?

[lilac portal]

I'll certainly be humming it!

[brazen fjord]

I just thought of a suppa dark thing

[arctic onyx]

what if one day, you just become a god and then you get burdened with some cosimc duty for eternity

[warped oriole]

#💬│off-topic-chat ?

[dusty cargo]

Yea let's move to off topic

[brazen fjord]

What if we become pebbles when we die and Einar is just sulking through an eternal life, slowly gaining power

[short thorn]

If I can be something that can make a difference, and I can do my best to actually use my abilities to do what those before could not, then I'd gladly do so, as long as it eases the suffering of the weak, and humbles the strong.

[warped oriole]

All hail our golem overlord!

[sour burrow]

This is the way.

[lilac portal]

I'm sure there would be Einar cultists that would recognize his power.

[peak jetty]

The pebble afterlife rocks

[sour burrow]

Count me in, Cap'n.

[shrewd bronze]

Enough pebbles can make a mountain

[icy cedar]

enough pebbles can make a pile of pebbles

any more than that can even result in a big pile of pebbles

[warped oriole]

Very true, Solari.

[shrewd bronze]

And what happens if you have many big piles of pebbles?

[icy cedar]

large pile of pebbles

[warped oriole]

A new golem child is born from the pile. Einar has a new friend.

[lunar tundra]

Now that's crafting.

[shrewd bronze]

PebbleQuest

This is the Palia gameplay I want to see

[lilac portal]

Enough pebbles on the ground could make it hard for intruders to enter your house. Pebble booby trap. I wonder if we will have to worry about B&Es, lol

[warped oriole]

In #❔│game-faqs it says no stealing, so hopefully not.

[sour burrow]

LEGO pieces VS pebbles. 👀

[shrewd bronze]

Lego Pebbles would just be too powerful.

[sour burrow]

LOL. pls no, Lord have mercy

[lilac portal]

That's good!

[shrewd bronze]

There is no mercy to be had - the Lebbles do not permit it.

[sour burrow]

THE LEBBLES, lmaooo

ily, Goswick; you and your genius words!

[lilac portal]

Pegos really doesn't have the same ring to it does it. Only one way to go here

[shrewd bronze]

I mean, Pegos do kind of have a ring to it - but it's no Lebbles tbh

[sour burrow]

omigod okay, Pegos is also great, hahahaha.

[lilac portal]

It's certainly a different mood, hahaha

[sour burrow]

This sounds like a Faction war. OH NO.

Which one would be the "evil" one?

[shrewd bronze]

Both

[lilac portal]

Chapaa v Chuu all over again

[sour burrow]

... or both of them.

[shrewd bronze]

Might I remind you, they're Lego Pebbles - they are evil incarnate

They are where angels fear to tread

For the pain and horror of stepping on one is too much for any being to bear

[sour burrow]

Not gonna lie here, I had forgotten it all for a second! They are so deceiving.

[warped oriole]

Einar still loves them though

[sour burrow]

Poor angels! ;~; After all, they are no match against these Machiavellian characters.

[patent adder]

👀 🐢

[shrewd bronze]

Only Einar can restrain their power

[sour burrow]

I feel like Einar loves everyone and everything; but only once.

Better not betray that trust.

[short thorn]

Spider-Man from family guy only Einar. "Everyone only gets one" before swinging away

[lilac portal]

[tidal scroll]

better collect a huge stack of pebbles and turn em in all at once then

[sour burrow]

ROFL. That made me laugh harder than it should have.

[ocean stone]

G'night errybody!!

[hushed rampart]

Nighty night. 🌚

[sour burrow]

Good night, Cinna! Sleep well!

[short thorn]

Good lmfao

[ocean stone]

or good day...I'm just going to sleeps

[tidal scroll]

night toasty

[warped oriole]

Sleep well, Cinna.

[shrewd bronze]

Goodnight

[patent adder]

Sleep well cinna ❤️

[short thorn]

Gnight!

[shrewd bronze]

I kinda forget about timezones lol, it's like 3 PM here

[short thorn]

Imma head to bed too, gotta keep my schedule. Night!

[lilac portal]

1am here!

[sour burrow]

I really like your way of thinking. Let's just hope that Einar accepts your offering.

[shrewd bronze]

I woke up like 3 hours ago hahaha

[lilac portal]

Have a great sleep!

[shrewd bronze]

Night!

[sour burrow]

G'night, Matthew! Sweet dreams!

[lilac portal]

I'm hoping the sound design in game is really good. I'd love to hear different sounds when traveling on different terrain. Gravel, dirt, grass, etc.

[dusty cargo]

6am here I need sleep 😂

[arctic onyx]

daaamn you sleep at 6 am?

bruh i thought i was weird for waking up at midnight

[lilac portal]

Hmm I'm going to need a Palia lofi girl and music to fall asleep to... Maybe one of the artists could create something fun like that!

[hushed rampart]

Good night everybody it was nice to meet you.

[arctic onyx]

good night!!!

[sour burrow]

Night night, Decaf!

[patent adder]

Trashpapii... Sleep 👀 Goat say!

[celest maple]

Good night, hope you had a great time here. Sleep tight.

[pine aspen]

has the beta testers gotten to try the game yet?

[celest maple]

I don't think so no.

[warped oriole]

Not that I've heard of.

[silver breach]

😮

[silent cairn]

good morning!

[warped oriole]

Morning, Sane.

[silent cairn]

did I miss anything interesting in the last 7 hours?

[warped oriole]

The idea of Lego pebbles (Lebbles) was brought up recently

[lilac portal]

I think they are in a true pre-alpha so I'm not sure what all they are going to want tested even

[warped oriole]

The section in #❔│game-faqs about housing was also discussed

[lilac portal]

And pegos

[silent cairn]

this is clearly the most important thing that I missed.

[warped oriole]

I read somewhere that S6 just wants people to play the game and see how the pacing, story etc. are, rather than prioritising finding bugs, but Idk if that's accurate rn.

[peak escarp]

Goodnight! Sleep well! Take care! 👋

You too @hushed rampart!

[silent cairn]

that do be what they said in their QnA from a day or two ago

[peak escarp]

Good morning! 👋

[warped oriole]

Ah, thanks for checking that, Sane.

[silent cairn]

👋
So funny how there are people who go to sleep when I wake up.

[warped oriole]

Timezones just keep on happening...

[silent cairn]

They should stop 😤

[ashen umbra]

just don't sleep :^)

[lilac portal]

I think it is going to be interesting to see the time pass in game. The cycles seem like they'd be very quick

[warped oriole]

I just looked at the website and it says that the Pre-Alpha is available for Windows only... As a Mac user, this is slightly worrying. ;w;

[celest maple]

That just means that the pre-alpha build is only available for one operating system so that they don't have to tinker on multiple operating systems at once. It'll most likely be out on Mac as well with the game's release.

[peak escarp]

I've been wondering how the time cycles will be!

[warped oriole]

I hope so.

[lilac portal]

Hopefully it will be on the docket to test other OS once they get a good handle on one. I'm sure they will want to cast a wide net

[peak escarp]

I wonder how the time will be in the game!

[lilac portal]

In the FAQ it says "Currently 1 IRL hour is 1 in-game day. This might change

Roan#9961: 1 hour of real time = 24 hours in the game. So you'll have 15 minutes of morning, 15 minutes of afternoon, 15 minutes of evening, 15 minutes of night. > Followed up by a confirmation from a dev"

[peak escarp]

Sweeeeeet!

Tysm!

I really love the sound of that!

[shrewd bronze]

Does anyone know if we can drink in the in-game taverns btw?

[lilac portal]

I'd like to play specifically at dusk. Going to have to nail down the perfect lighting for great screen shots!

[faint dawn]

[lilac portal]

Not sure specifically but there is a mug. I wonder if drinking could change the rating of the game

[patent adder]

Sleepy Ana ☺️

[lilac portal]

there is at least milk in a mug so you can pretend you have a little flask to add to it, lol

[shrewd bronze]

Ah, yeah - as an Aussie, I would love in-game drinks hahaha

Drinking with friends without the hangover after lol 😆

[lilac portal]

Shoey? 👟

[shrewd bronze]

I've never actually done a shoey, funnily enough

[lilac portal]

Seems like it would be trying on the stomach, lol. And I'd need a few in me before considering it

[shrewd bronze]

In Aus, where most people can drink you under the table, you really don't need to 😅

I don't think I'd ever be able to manage a shoey tbh

Not my cup of tea, needless to say

[lilac portal]

It would be neat if villages/neighborhoods could develop their own customs. Like inside meanings to certain actions. pantomime drinking from a shoe

I hope Palia has a good set of emotes.

Maybe not the floss but something more than a wave

[shrewd bronze]

I think Destiny 2 has some pretty great emotes

[lilac portal]

Just a slight head nod and eye brow raise as you pass someone, lol

[shrewd bronze]

Like, something like those would be pretty cool, just as long as they have a better system for using them

[lilac portal]

I love/loved me some Destiny 2. I talked about that game in my second survey they requested.

[shrewd bronze]

Yeah, I don't mind Destiny 2 - but it's kinda not my game either

[lilac portal]

I wanted it to be something it wasn't. But I really made great friends playing it.

[shrewd bronze]

I'm not the best at it, I'm miserable at shooters - dyspraxia and all makes it kind of hard

But it's still a bit of fun to play with mates, and you do make a fair few good friends in it

I liked that aspect, though I was always miserable at the "actually hitting any enemies" part 😅

[lilac portal]

Yes, I am actually going to be going to 3 weddings this year for friends I met in the game. I hope Palia has that kind of community building.

[lavish osprey]

I like chill games where you dont have to aim just press

[lilac portal]

Working together to do a task really brings folks together. I hope there are some community tasks but nothing as involved as a raid. I am not looking for that stress anymore.

[shrewd bronze]

Oh geez, the raids - I was so bad at those hahahahah

I tried doing that new Europa raid with friends, and I was so bad at it lol

[lilac portal]

Same but I was thankful for guys that really helped teach them to me. The raid sherpa community was neat!

[shrewd bronze]

Oh yeah, I basically got carried to the end hahaha

[lilac portal]

Some games you get to be the backpack and other you wear it. Always looking to pay it forward in games and help out.

[shrewd bronze]

But yeah, I'm hoping that the community-focused gameplay of Palia will be a little less intense 😅

Yeah, I'm really good at 4k strategy games and stuff like that, as well as survival games - I can afford to take a little more time with them

Plus, I really like building stuff

[lilac portal]

I'm hoping in Palia there are ways you could help someone on a new homestead in or near your community. Donate furniture or something to help them get set up

[shrewd bronze]

Yeah, that'd be pretty sweet - I think that'd really add to the whole community aspect of the game too

Like, it'd give people the chance to be introduced to other players very early on, and it'd be really good for collaboration

It'd help to form the kind of community connections and friendly atmosphere that lends itself to the game

[serene axle]

Sounds like a good equivalent to typical MMO activities would be something like people being able to pool resources together to build their town up in some way.

[peak jetty]

Competitive pebble hunting

[celest maple]

I hope storage will be generous so that we can hoard a bunch of stuff throughout our time playing Palia to later be able to offload in donations and such.

[serene axle]

Almost like making towns the equivalent to traditional MMO guilds, where the town itself is like the guild hall

[lilac portal]

That's a great idea. Maybe a community thrift shop you could "store" your old things in that new players might be interested in

[peak jetty]

I hope there's at least 1 area where everyone can be in the same instance like a main city

[shrewd bronze]

As long as it doesn't turn into Mabinogi, where everyone is idling in Dunbarton Channel 1 and it lags the game to a slideshow on even the best computers

[peak jetty]

That's part of the experience

[celest maple]

[shrewd bronze]

[lilac portal]

I agree with this. Let's call it Stormwind err... Cloudybreeze, lol

[shrewd bronze]

Sometimes, you just want to watch the world burn lol

[shrewd bronze]

What about Galair?

Erm, I totally didn't just mush Gale and Air together - I swear 😆

[wispy meadow]

Greetings Palians

[shrewd bronze]

Salutations, individual! How fare ye?

[wispy meadow]

Pretty good I guess.

[lilac portal]

Lol! I just Googled it and in Irish it seems like that "galair" relates to disease. Maybe that can be the name of some ruins of a plague city or something

[shrewd bronze]

Excellent, a rather sporting mood to be in!

I don't know why I'm talking like this 😂

[patent adder]

Hey, friend. ❤️

[lilac portal]

Speaking of sports. I hope there is unique Palia games

[shrewd bronze]

That is... rather an unfortunate coincidence 😅

[brisk ivy]

Hello, friend.

[lilac portal]

Is that not how all Australians speak?

[patent adder]

Hey Quench ^^

[shrewd bronze]

Not at all hahaha

Most Australians say things like "garn' servo in the arvo, mate - grab us a snag 'n' a four n twenty"

Struth

[quick sparrow]

Hey heyyyy, Palians!!! 💞💞💞💞💞

[unreal kindle]

I could totally go a pie right now!

[lilac portal]

Crikey that sounds complex

[unreal kindle]

Hello friends!

[shrewd bronze]

It might sound that way, but really - it's just asking for a hot dog and a pie from the local service station in the afternoon

[shrewd bronze]

Hello

[patent adder]

Hey, friend. ^^

[celest maple]

Good morning, Palians.

[shrewd bronze]

Good morning, or I guess afternoon here tbh

[lilac portal]

Gosh, I have really hit the wall now that 2am is rolling around. 😴 Hope everyone has a great rest of whatever timezone appropriate activity is upcoming!

[brisk ivy]

I gotta me about 4.5 hours left at work.

[lilac portal]

Have great rest of your shift!

[shrewd bronze]

Oof 😅

Hope you have a good night sleep 😴

[brisk ivy]

Thanks! Right now I'm on break just looking to see what peeps are talking about here! Sometimes people come up with cool ideas!

[shrewd bronze]

Also, we should really have a dozing Chapaa emote - that'd be pretty cool

[lilac portal]

Agreed! Catch you later!

[shrewd bronze]

Oh, we do have a sleep emote lol - it's a Kitsuu

Anyway, seeya!

[warm plover]

Goooooood morning

[brisk ivy]

We also got this thing

[shrewd bronze]

Timezones are hilarious lol

[warm plover]

Yup
i live 11-12 hours away from most americans...

[shrewd bronze]

Anyway, good morning!

[celest maple]

Rin is close to your time, Goswick

[shrewd bronze]

Yeah, relatively - but it's still 4 in the afternoon here

[warm plover]

its technically afternoon but i just woke up so

[celest maple]

Rin is like 2pm maybe

[shrewd bronze]

Oh lol hahahaha, that makes a lot of sense

[patent adder]

My boy ❤️

[warm plover]

yeah 2 pm
hi milkyyy

[celest maple]

and im 6pm. we have this area covered!

[patent adder]

How are you? ^^

[warm plover]

I just woke up so I have no idea how I am yet
vaguely tired? ive got that feeling when you wake up where everything feels like jelly

[brisk ivy]

Back at it for me! Have a good one!

[shrewd bronze]

Yeah fair, the one where you're kind of a little dazed still?

I get that too tbh, especially when I have work days

[rain carbon]

Just a reminder - please only use this channel for Palia related topics. For other topics, you can use the #💬│off-topic-chat channel. Thank you

[warm plover]

...Maybe we can make jelly in Palia

[shrewd bronze]

Ah, yes - but what if I also wake up dazed in Palia lol - create that realism 😆

[rigid bridge]

Did palia came out yet

[warm plover]

no

[warped oriole]

Nope, only the pre-alpha invites have been sent out, to my knowledge.

[rigid bridge]

@warm plover thanks

[shrewd bronze]

Now that I think about it, I've been a little preoccupied with work tbh - have all the invites been sent out yet?

[warped oriole]

People with the pre-alpha role have been invited already, Idk anything else.

[shrewd bronze]

Yeah, fairo - fingers crossed 😅

[warped oriole]

Yeah, everyone's feeling a bit of that. ;w;

[shrewd bronze]

Honestly though, I kind of want to see how they manage social interaction in-game - like in-game voice and stuff like that

[wispy meadow]

Milkyyy 🥛

[patent adder]

Hey Anakerio. How are you? ^^

[celest maple]

I just hope they delegate all the roles already so that I don't have to sit here twiddling my thumbs wondering if I'll get invited or not.

[warped oriole]

Until the wave of Beta players happens, you're probably all good albeit in the majority of non-players.

[wispy meadow]

Okay. You?

[shrewd bronze]

I mean, I've got my Chuu role, so at least I've got that

[warped oriole]

True, true.

[celest maple]

I don't like the anxiety of anticipating something I'm probable not to get.

[warped oriole]

That's fair.

[shrewd bronze]

I guess that makes sense, but still, I'm just happy to meet new people tbh. With work and everything, being able to chill and talk about a cool new game's probably enough for me anyway

If it makes it any easier, even if you don't get it, you've still met some cool peeps along the way

[celest maple]

I don't mind not getting it, I don't like the wait.

[warped oriole]

And we'll all wait until it's properly released together, I guess!

[shrewd bronze]

Here's to that

[peak escarp]

Hello! 👋

[shrewd bronze]

Hello

[peak escarp]

Omg I just had an instant thought! I hope we can bake in Palia! Omg that would be soooo amazing!!!!!

[broken marten]

Yes I will need some form of cooking to make hats

[peak escarp]

[shrewd bronze]

I would totes run a pastry shop if that were the case

[peak escarp]

Oh my god YES! 🧁 🍰 🥮

[warped oriole]

There were definitely people planning to make pancakes earlier today, I reckon cooking's going to be popular.

[shrewd bronze]

Also, I'd really love to see like foraging and that sort of thing - foraging for ingredients like in Genshin was awesome

[peak escarp]

man I want cake now...

[peak escarp]

Oh my god I want pancakes now aha...

[warm plover]

I want sweet and sour pork...

[celest maple]

Hi

[shrewd bronze]

Having to traverse the world to get yourself a neat little ingredient to make an awesome dish would be a lot of fun

[broken marten]

Please...go on

[shrewd bronze]

As an Australian, if baking is possible, I am legally obligated to make a meat pie

[warped oriole]

There we go, here's a pancake enthusiast

[silent cairn]

this sentence would typically make no sense but for you it's just perfect.

[warped oriole]

I'll join you in the making of meat pies, then ✌️

[shrewd bronze]

Meat pooooooooiiiiiiiiiiiiiiieeeeees

But yeah, gotta make that four n twenty - that'd be sick

Now that I think about it though, it'd be kind of cool for the sake of the game to see how food prep plays out and what different foodstuffs would do

[warm plover]

As another Australian, I'm obligated to... uh... advocate for dropbears in palia

[shrewd bronze]

The Hunter becomes the Hunted

[warm plover]

theyre probably too dangerous to exist in palia though

[warped oriole]

A dropbear head accessory, perhaps?

[warm plover]

terrifying

[broken marten]

Truly terrifying

[shrewd bronze]

Well, if we have pancake hats, then why not?

[broken marten]

Take it from us

[shrewd bronze]

Your head wouldn't last long though

[silent cairn]

that would be like a max level accessory that would scare away all other animals

[peak escarp]

LOL

[unreal kindle]

Yes!!! Grow all of the fruit and make all of the pie!!

[warped oriole]

Pretty fruit pies... ✨

[peak escarp]

Yessssss you two!

I would love a job where we can cook! Omg...

I love cooking mechanics in games so much!

[wispy meadow]

Looks like the restaurant business will be booming in Palia

[peak escarp]

Or like imagine if we can cook in our own kitchens?!

[peak escarp]

Hehehe yesssss!

[warped oriole]

Cookin' up treats for the neighbourhood potluck, perhaps..

[shrewd bronze]

Imagine if we could build customised kitchens that are good for cooking certain kinds of foods

[wispy meadow]

We really need a neighborhood potluck

[shrewd bronze]

Like you have things like a grill for meats, and pastry presses for pastries - stuff like that

[wispy meadow]

Pie dishes

And pizza ovens! Now I'm getting hungry 😅

[shrewd bronze]

Oh damn, yeah a pizza oven would be awesome!

I'm making myself hungry just thinking about that hahaha

[warm plover]

lets just have a whole cooking mama minigame inside palia

[shrewd bronze]

Let's just build cooking mama into the game lol

[wispy meadow]

Yes pls we need this

But cooking mama is actually an npc baker/chef and a grimalkin granny

[warm plover]

grimalkin are so TINY

[wispy meadow]

Exactly!

Tiny grandma who does the cooking mama tutorial for newbies to learn how to cook.
And runs the store that sells food ingredients/kitchen upgrades

Ohh and recipe books

[warm plover]

christ i just looked up how many messages i have in this server
almost 9000...

[shrewd bronze]

Lol, that'd be amazing - I can just imagine a tiny grimalkin granny who just tears around the kitchen like a ninja as she tries to cook three things at once

[wispy meadow]

XD

[shrewd bronze]

Also, oh my

[warm plover]

[patent adder]

Like double mine. ☺️

[warm plover]

milky i need to stop talking so much 😿

[shrewd bronze]

Just legit bouncing off the walls like an acrobat as she tries to stir a pot of soup while pulling a Lasagna out of the oven and cutting zucchini for a salad

[shrewd bronze]

Like, many hundreds of times more than me, probably 😅

[warm plover]

grimalkin ninja granny sounds based as hell

[patent adder]

You have 168 👀

[hidden spindle]

How do you look that up?

[patent adder]

Search bar and from: + username

[warm plover]

in the search bar type from:(your name)

[magic mist]

Milky you must be somewhere up there as well 🙂

[patent adder]

4800 Yeah ^^

[celest maple]

I have 414 messages. I delete a lot of my messages, but still nowhere near you guys' amount.

[magic mist]

impressive

[wispy meadow]

1622....

[patent dust]

o/

[warm plover]

it's honestly probably a bad thing for me to have so many... it means i dont think before talking lol

[patent adder]

Hey Panda ^^

[patent dust]

rin has more messages than me???

[hidden spindle]

I am at 50! Moving on up!

[patent dust]

im at 7,831 (including this one)

[warm plover]

1200 messages in channels i dont have access to, then

[magic mist]

lol. busted

[patent dust]

oh hmm didnt know you could see that lmao

[magic mist]

math

[patent dust]

pfft people dont do math

math isnt real

[warm plover]

It shows as 6600 for me so
must be surprisingly active in there. kinda thought it would be dead since i didnt think testing started
not that i know that for sure

[wispy meadow]

Half this chat is full of DnD players
That's math with fantasy elements added

[magic mist]

this statement hurts my brain😆

[magic mist]

can you do me a huge favour? how much does it show for me to you?))

[patent adder]

Same 👀

[warm plover]

2160

for milky its 4159

[magic mist]

thanks

[wispy meadow]

Kinda curious about something
Do you think there will be a haunted castle for Halloween in Palia?

[patent adder]

I hope so!!

[warped oriole]

It would be kinda cool.

[celest maple]

I can't wait for gameplay mechanics to get revealed.

[willow vector]

this game could have a RP mode

[patent dust]

even if they did as little as decorating for holidays, id be happy lol

[warped oriole]

Agreed. Festive decorating is good fun.

[deft sonnet]

Poggies

[magic mist]

I cannot believe you submitted that question😂

[deft sonnet]

What?

Holiday decoration?

[shrewd bronze]

I think it'd be cool to have time-limited event recipes so that you could make your own decorations during holiday seasons

[spring rivet]

good morning Pals! 🦆

[magic mist]

Its a duck

[wispy meadow]

Ohh yess!!!

[broken marten]

Top o the mornin to ye duck!

[magic mist]

Quack morning to you, as well

[wispy meadow]

Palia Christmas Pudding
Halloween Pumpkin pie
Easter Chocolate Egg

[broken marten]

All year round palia pancake

[spring rivet]

looks delicious

so i just finished my breakfast, now i'm hungry again

[magic mist]

palia chat never disappoints in making one hungry

[magic mist]

ducks and pancakes not good mix

[broken marten]

https://tenor.com/view/pancake-strawberry-pancake-gif-13212353

[shrewd bronze]

What about if I make a pancake using duck eggs?

[magic mist]

why you wanna do ducks children like that?

[safe fern]

Morning all ^^/

[celest maple]

good morning pals

[shrewd bronze]

Soz, gotta cook em all

[patent adder]

Hey you two ☺️

[latent plover]

good morning

[wispy meadow]

Hi 👋

So anyways,
Back to theorizing Palia food
The only topic chat loves as much as Palia itself

What food you want most in Palia?

[warped oriole]

Some kind of curry and rice.

[alpine trout]

cookies!

[celest maple]

Curry's always portrayed so tastefully in anime, I'd like to have that in Palia as well definitively.

[patent dust]

it needs to be answered :v

[shrewd bronze]

Pies, without a doubt

[peak escarp]

Man, y’all are making me hungry and I already brushed my teeth. Not fair!

[safe fern]

Ramen definitely

[warm plover]

oh duck woke up

[celest maple]

yes pies for sure. meat pies especially

[peak escarp]

I’m off to pass out! Soooo sleepy!
To a good night/morning everyone! Take care!

[silent cairn]

let's gooo after 3 months finally got my second dose. Time to think about Palia for the rest of the day

So how are y'all doing today? Any interesting thoughts or ideas about the game?

[warm plover]

we talked about cooking again

[shrewd bronze]

I think there's been more than one convo about cooking tbh, we talked about cooking a lot 😅

[silent cairn]

that's a topic I wish I could chime in to, but I can barely even successfully make spaghetti irl

[twilit pond]

I’d be disappointed if I came in and y’all weren’t talking food tbh

[rain carbon]

#🍜│food-and-noms 👀

[shrewd bronze]

Why do you think I want cooking in-game lol? I'm the sort of bloke that burns cornflakes

It's the only way I'll make anything that ever resembles food

I need Palia cooking lol

[silent cairn]

It would be really interesting if the cooking was made indepth enough to need actual skill and time to do. Like, you can get all the ingredients, but instead of just pressing "cook", you need to do like a little minigame to select the right amount of flour, right amount of something else, do it all in the right order and cook it for just the right amount of time.

[shrewd bronze]

Oh geez, I'm going to be burning cornflakes for days under that system

[silent cairn]

hahah, naaah it probably wouldn't be that hard but if they really are going ham on stuff like cooking, I think it would be interesting to at least need to remember some small recipe that would be in a cook book or something.

[shrewd bronze]

Yeah, I think that'd probably be a good idea - could be pretty neat

Like you can prepare all your ingredients separately, and then combine them on a stove / oven and cook them for a certain time to make a dish

And how you prepare ingredients sets what recipe you would be trying to cook

Idk, I ain't good at actual cooking though hahahhaha

[silent cairn]

the problem with real life cooking is that recipes often go the route of "yeah, now keep putting this in there until you think it tastes good." and "yeah, now let it cook for a while." like what does that meaaaaaan

[silent cairn]

me neither, but I'm sure anything can be fun when game-ified

[shrewd bronze]

You gotta just feeeeeeel the dish in your heart, you've just got to believe in it like Yugi believes in the heart of the cards 😆

But yeah, I'm hoping that in Palia, I can roleplay as a functioning adult lol

[silent cairn]

that would truly be the most fantasy roleplay

[shrewd bronze]

It's such a far-fetched fantasy that it breaks my immersion lol

[spring rivet]

i hope i can roleplay as THE duck in Palia, not just A duck

[shrewd bronze]

Leader of the Duck Dynasty

[silent cairn]

I can already see it. You just crouch walking along the shore of the lake, quacking.

[spring rivet]

DucKING

of the dynasty lol

[silent cairn]

now that's a name

[dusty cargo]

You are the main feature ducky!

[silent cairn]

The King. DucKing. So good.

[warm plover]

ill roleplay as a cute grimalkin (if thats an option)

[spring rivet]

that'll be creepy if my character has a hooman body lol

[silent cairn]

it will. That's what will make it even more funny.

[shrewd bronze]

You just have to cover yourself in duck feathers

[silent cairn]

Unless you get the devs to add a duck model for you, haha. Speaking of, do mods get a free pass into the pre-alpha or are you guys just chilling and waiting as well?

[shrewd bronze]

Get a duck outfit, claim your kin's feathers in the name of the Emperor's New Clothes

[spring rivet]

we have to apply like an ordinary player

I'll chill and wait for the beta onward, more slots for other pals

[silent cairn]

Dang, that sucks. How did you guys become mods in the first place? Were there mod applications at the beginning of the server?

I'm not interested in being a mod as that's too scary on such a big server, but just curious.

[spring rivet]

it's an internal thing, sorry 😅

[silent cairn]

Ah, my bad. No problem at all

[spring rivet]

yes, we're close to 100k! but we're working on it

[brisk pewter]

your doing a good job and its 4am and im not sleeping 👍

[silent cairn]

sleeeeeep

[shrewd bronze]

Yeah, you're all doing a pretty great job - especially since the server's so massive now

[brisk pewter]

no i have to chat on the Palia discord o3o

[spring rivet]

not enough sleep Matt, you forgot your username already! 😋

[silent cairn]

you gotta get sleep to be sure you can make quality memes, right?

[shrewd bronze]

Sléep for the memes, my friend

[warped oriole]

I'm a little bit late but agreed, good job dealing with nearly 100k people

[fiery gale]

Bungus

[shrewd bronze]

For the memes

[dusty cargo]

Slep

[brisk pewter]

i have to come up with more Palia related memes that are more funny then they are thought provoking i noticed my meme was starting a conversation and i didnt mean to lol

[shrewd bronze]

Actually, yeah - that's a question. Will we be able to go mushroom and fungus hunting in Palia? I think it'd be interesting to have like a herbalist's book and have to identify flora

[fiery gale]

If you're asking me, I don't know

[shrewd bronze]

I'm just asking cuz you said Bungus, and it rhymed with Fungus, and my strange mind all of a sudden went on a mad tangent 😆

[fiery gale]

I just like bungus - a shortening of the term "bustling fungus" from risk of rain 2

[shrewd bronze]

I'm going to post that as a suggestion though in the other chat

[brisk pewter]

pfff thats what it ment lol i just thought bungus was a fun word.

[fiery gale]

it is a fun word

[shrewd bronze]

So did I hahaha

[fiery gale]

🅱️ungus

[brisk pewter]

🇧 🇺 🆖 🇺 🇸

mhmmm i did that and its aestheticly pleasing o3o

[shrewd bronze]

Big Bungus energy.

[dusty cargo]

There better be mushrooms 😭

[surreal crest]

Someone pinged me here - I am away for the weekend, visting family, I'll be back on Sunday, take care everyone!

[silent cairn]

Have a nice weekend, Chair!! 👋

[spring rivet]

stay mystical!

[brisk pewter]

ok so its kinda selfish of me cause like im a dude in my late 20's that really likes Dad jokes but i really hope the dev's hide things in the game like Koala tea cause if i ran across it id actually laugh alot..

[dusty cargo]

@surreal crest have fun

[brisk pewter]

i really want there to be puns like unneeded amounts of puns

[silent cairn]

there cannot be unneeded amounts of puns

because all amounts of them are needed.

[brisk pewter]

i'll have to pray to the meme god on the dev team o3o to at the very least sneak afew in

[warped oriole]

Yes! Yes! Yes! More puns!

[silent cairn]

Considering DadJoke is in the pre-alpha, I'm sure they'll somehow inevitably be affected by him and sneak a few in, heh

[warped oriole]

I hope so!

[brisk pewter]

ill have to post it in the suggestions but id really like all of the dev's when they have some time to make a meme and let us vote on whom is the dankest memer of S6 that would be a fun server thing now that i think about it

[patent adder]

👀🐐

[silent cairn]

that really would be fun. See what type of humor all the team members have.

inb4 one of them has really dark humor that doesn't fit in the server at all

[slim shard]

A wonderful Happy new Day Palians! 🙂 Hope you all have been good and awesome in the last hours while I was running high through Dreamland? 😄

[warped oriole]

I have been "good and awesome" as mentioned, and I hope you had a nice trip to Dreamland!

[patent adder]

Hope you slept well friend :3

[silent cairn]

I've been great. Hope you can have a wonderful day starting now as well!

[slim shard]

I did. It was a bit to warm, but my lovely fan was helping me out to stay well climated. ❤️

[silent cairn]

Same here. The fan is the only thing that keeps me going.

[brisk pewter]

o3o still awake Matt log hour more then likely 30 something still looking at the computer screen thinking about food but far to lazy to move to make or get anything.

[past harbor]

mmmmm aircon ❤️

[silent cairn]

at least look at discord on your phone in bed?

[slim shard]

I feel honoured to find myself in such exclusive Company. 😉

[brisk pewter]

negative captain i will sleep around the hour of 37 or 40 when things begin to grow dark and the sun comes out o3o

[silent cairn]

Wait do you mean you haven't slept for 30 hours atm and aren't going to for another 7-10? that's nuts

[brisk pewter]

oh naw i've gone for 3 or 4 days like this is nothing o3o we are chilling right now o3o

[surreal crest]

Matt do you need a doctor?

[silent cairn]

I'm guessing you have insomnia and are one of those people who after that passes out for like 20 hours?

[brisk pewter]

i do not condone my behavior so as a adult i must say to anyone who reads my messages do not do what i am saying o3o i just dont sleep well and use my blank space time chilling on my computer rather then doing nothing

[brave thorn]

I will take that challenge... my video memes have broken many of you

[silent cairn]

I think that suggestion was more for the devs, but it would be awesome to have a server wide meme off as well

[brisk pewter]

Personally i think a meme gauntlet for the devs would be great but at the same time even making a small maybe non competitive show case for all the memers in general would be nice too

one thing i can say i've noticed is the discord around 3-5am my time is very slow and its kind of refreshing to be able to string 2 messages together

[patent adder]

I am taking all of your advice

[brisk pewter]

does that mean your going to bed?

[shrewd bronze]

I would so participate in a meme gauntlet

[patent adder]

👀 Yes. Then I will ruin my sleep schedule and never be able to stay awake at work

[brisk pewter]

Yes for sleep thats great no for ruining your sleep schedule have a good rest tho

[patent adder]

No I think I am confused ignore me ☺️ I am just being stupid goat

[brisk pewter]

oh no i also could be reading things wrong as it has been 21 hours so that and i just dont read things well normally. Either way i will be around if anyone needs me ping me o3o as i wont get a notification any other way lol

[heavy falcon]

Morning

[shrewd bronze]

Morning!

Or well, evening here now hahaha

[heady lily]

Heey everyone how are you guys doing?

[shrewd bronze]

Just chilling lol, it's getting late though

I might call it and head out about now - play some Empyrion with mates

But yeah, I'm doing alright - being able to look forward to the weekend is always good hahaha

[slim shard]

It's supposedly only 20°C outside but Humidity is rather high and it's just to warm for me already. T_T Luckily it's Saturday and I don't have to go anywhere today. But other then that, I'm doing good, thanks! How are you doing?

[shrewd bronze]

I wish we had that, I'm absolutely freezing in Aus

[wispy meadow]

I read that in a weatherman voice and I'm not disappointed

[shrewd bronze]

It's nearing the solstice of winter here, and you can certainly feel it 🥶

[wispy meadow]

I thought solstice was June 24?

Or was it 14? I don't remember the date

[fiery fulcrum]

morning Palia chat ❤️

[shrewd bronze]

Idk, I think we're coming up to it, could be passing it as well - all I know is I'm freezing to death lol

[craggy niche]

Yo

[shrewd bronze]

Yo everyone, how's things?

[wispy meadow]

How freezing is Australia?

[shrewd bronze]

Not very, but I'm incredibly bad with the cold

[craggy niche]

Things good, today I begin vacation so I will be able to play lol until dying inside

[wispy meadow]

I need temperature in Celsius 😅

[shrewd bronze]

We don't even really get snow

[slim shard]

I just prefer colder Temps. Anything above 25°C is considered hot by me. I feel most comfortable with 21°C, normal Humidity and a bit of a nice breeze. But while Sleeping I prefer Temps below 20°C or it'll be to warm for me to sleep comfortably. 😅

[shrewd bronze]

Like, I'd say it can get down to 2 degrees c sometimes, but honestly - I just hate the cold

[wispy meadow]

My preferred temp range is 23-27°C

[wispy meadow]

Damn that's cold. Stay warm and make hot cocoa

[shrewd bronze]

I can wear a coat in 40 degree heat, but the second I go near a fridge I feel the life being sapped from my bones 🤣

[shrewd bronze]

Will do

[tidal scroll]

i'm the complete opposite

[patent adder]

Mine is like 19c 😰

[tidal scroll]

i used to live in the basement so i'm accustomed to cool temperatures

[wispy meadow]

You have goat preferred temp which is fine 🙂

[wispy meadow]

How are you not possessed by the demon in the basement yet?

[glacial ibex]

They always wear a bible

[silent cairn]

it's been over 30 degrees here and still will be every day for at least a week

[wispy meadow]

Same here.... It's 31 here now.... I don't want to go outside.... But pizza.... 😭

[silent cairn]

delivery?

[wispy meadow]

Nah, the pizza lady in the cafeteria is the only one open other than the local food corner. And the pizza is sooo good ❤️

[silent cairn]

dang, then maybe it really is worth going through the heat

just remember to drink a lot of water

[wispy meadow]

I will 👍

[deft sonnet]

PIZZA

[silent cairn]

Hello, SameDude!

[slim shard]

I want to be able to have Pizza Parties in my House with my fellow Palians. ❤️

[silent cairn]

I also suddenly appear in any place where pizza is mentioned.

[silent cairn]

the game would have peaked at that point.

[deft sonnet]

Ello

[patent adder]

Hey 😄

[deft sonnet]

Hola milky

[vale spire]

Hello hello!

[wispy meadow]

What's everyone's favorite pizza?

[patent adder]

All of the pepperoni. 🤤

[silent cairn]

double pepperoni

[deft sonnet]

Veggie pizza

[slim shard]

Mine would be Ham-Mushrooms-Garlic, but I also love myself a Cheese-Only Pizza with some fresh Tomatoes and Basil on Top of it as well as Kebab-Pizza together with cold, Yogurt-Based, Garlic-Sauce.

[shrewd bronze]

Hawaiian.

Yes, you heard me.

[wispy meadow]

All of that sounds so good 😋
I love pepperoni with some green bell peppers added

@Goswick#1694
BLASPHEMY!

[silent cairn]

I-i just pick one from the list that sounds yummy.

[tidal scroll]

i love kebab pizzas

[shrewd bronze]

🍍 🍍 You can't stop me 🍍 🍍

[wispy meadow]

XD
I won't as long as you don't make me witness you eating the abomination

[shrewd bronze]

🍍 does belong on 🍕

[deft sonnet]

Amen

[wispy meadow]

Traitor

[silent cairn]

Hawaiian is one of those pizzas that I actually don't mind at all if offered, but would never personally order one over something else lol.

[patent adder]

👀 🦆

[wispy meadow]

Here's hoping there's no pineapple pizza recipe in Palia

[slim shard]

I'll gladly share with you Fan-Buddy. ❤️

[shrewd bronze]

Also, if y'all have ever tried an Aussie Pizza, that's pretty neat too

[wispy meadow]

What's an Aussie pizza?

[silent cairn]

Does it have kangaroo meat or?

[shrewd bronze]

It's pizza with egg on top

[broken marten]

ham and egg

[wispy meadow]

Oh... Um.... I'm gonna nope out

[silent cairn]

Ostrich egg on top?

[wispy meadow]

That would cover the whole pizza lol

[spring rivet]

I'm drooling already, can we continue the nom-nom topics on the noms channel, thanks! #🍜│food-and-noms

[silent cairn]

that's why it would be epic

[wispy meadow]

Okay, change of topic back to Palia then

[deft sonnet]

So Ashura ay!!

[wooden rose]

am I a pre-alpha tester yet

[deft sonnet]

Not yet👍

Maybe soon

[wooden rose]

dude

[wispy meadow]

[wooden rose]

to what god of murder do I have to make a blood offer

[wispy meadow]

You just have to wait patiently and meditate like the rest of us

[patent adder]

I'm sure they'll announce the next wave when it's gonna happen ☺️

[wooden rose]

but im not a very patient person

[slim shard]

I think that is a different Game. 😰

[wispy meadow]

Good a time as any to learn

[silent cairn]

heh, what would be the opposite of this? Sending out 1200 invites without telling anyone?

[wispy meadow]

Surprise event

[silent cairn]

surprise event is it being released tomorrow

[wispy meadow]

True

[deft sonnet]

Hype

[warped oriole]

Hype!

[bright forge]

Happy time zone guys! 👋

[warped oriole]

Happy Time Zone, Perin!

[deft sonnet]

ello

[mint steppe]

Morning! Gotta work this weekend bleh.

Oh it’s quiet this morning. O:

[warm plover]

Hiii perin and tophi

[tame dome]

what role is for people with keys?

[silent cairn]

It sure is. Wonder where everyone's gone to.

[silent cairn]

if you mean Pre-Alpha access, then they're the ones with the Pre-Alpha Tester role.

[warm plover]

the role is called Pre-Alpha Tester, but you'll only have the Tester role before you sign the NDA

[celest maple]

Good morning!

mornin!

[wispy meadow]

Happy time zone

[slim shard]

Happy Saturday.

[edgy cedar]

Hey folks 🙂

[formal ivy]

Hello!

[patent adder]

I am back from VR, friends. How is everyone doing ❤️

[pine skiff]

I shouldn't have stayed until 1 am watching anime yesterday x_x

[warped oriole]

I'm doing okay, just watching Youtube

[patent adder]

Maybe not.. But maybe it was worth 👀

[patent adder]

Hey, friend! And Hello @edgy cedar and @long lava ^^

[silent cairn]

you were in virtual reality? Nice!

also hello and welcome back, Milky!

[patent adder]

I am back in the real world 😵‍💫

[shrewd bronze]

Oof, real world's kinda bad lol

[patent adder]

It's not that bad ☺️

[late hearth]

I wish I could do VR but it makes me so dizzy

[celest maple]

I hope my PC can handle this game

i've never tried or really thought about VR. could be interesting

[main nymph]

Morning all of you great individuals.

One day I'll make duck a new emote for reactions.

[pine skiff]

Definetly was xD

[valid jolt]

Haii

[celest maple]

good evening

[patent adder]

I love it!

[pine skiff]

This chat is welcoming as always, have a good day folks

[valid jolt]

don't.mind me Im gonna b here and there.. I just joined this server today so yea ^

[patent adder]

Oh welcome to the community friend ^^

[valid jolt]

Ty 💙

[solid girder]

See, Stalker Admin fits u 👀
Hehe glad U joined too

[acoustic idol]

hello i hope you're having a great day 😄

[thorny dune]

Did you duel someone with sabers?

[valid jolt]

👀 nu

xD but thanks

[celest maple]

I've joined the server just today as well 🙂

[valid jolt]

Oo nice :D

[main nymph]

@celest maple if you mean palia, despite not having concrete requirements, they've stated it'll run on even low specs. I'd say it's safe to assume something like 3ghz i5+, 8gb ram, and 2gb of a relatively recent gpu id wager you'll be fine. Of course that's speculation on my part.

[solid girder]

👀 okey lemme find Out more about Palia, im drifting Back to the other Channels.

[celest maple]

I should have no worries then

[patent adder]

Not today, Cinnatoasty said maybe tomorrow 😆

[thorny dune]

One of you has to stream it 🥺

[main nymph]

That's just me speculating. But I'd say you should becsafe on lower settings or resolution. They want this accessible. I could be way off in one direction or another though

[warm plover]

they said they were running the game on some pretty garbage pcs, in their own words
you should be fine

🗑️

[patent adder]

Welcome back 😄

[native merlin]

howdy yall

[patent adder]

Hey, friend. 😄

[warped oriole]

Howdy!

[native merlin]

howre yall?

[spring rivet]

Now I'm hungry 😅🦆

[native merlin]

man there are no voice channels to hang out in here

[patent adder]

Go to #🍜│food-and-noms. That's where ducks belong anyways! 😈

[spring rivet]

Belong to look at foods, or belong to be eaten like what's posted there? 😱

[patent adder]

Yes.

[spring rivet]

I heard goats taste yummy..

[patent adder]

Uhm, is this mod abuse? 👀 I feel like this is a threat

[spring rivet]

I hope palia has picnics, around goats

[patent adder]

Anyways, we should probably take this to #💬│off-topic-chat 🤓 ☝️

[native merlin]

oh hey not to bug about it has the alpha started yet am i to late to try and join it?

[celest maple]

Wasn't palia just announced a week ago?

[patent adder]

You can still try to get an invite! There are 2 questionnaires to do! One on the site and #📢│palia-news message

[celest maple]

Oh its been a month

[patent adder]

No, it was announced on the 3rd or 4th of last month ☺️

[patent adder]

So far only 200~ of the 1400 have been invited. So still lots of spots open ☺️

[manic sundial]

happy timezone hope there is enough shiny pebbles today for Einar and everyone having good weekend 🪨

[celest maple]

Does the developers have an ideal limit?

[deft sonnet]

'lots'

there are 90k in this server milky

[patent adder]

Well, suuuuure... But lots as in 1/7th of the invites have been sent out 😅

[deft sonnet]

thats true

but the chance is very low

[celest maple]

If you are accepted you get sent an invitation after a week right?

[warped oriole]

Still, we'll chat and wait all the same, right?

[patent adder]

If you get accepted you get a discord role and have to agree to the NDA

[patent adder]

Obviously. I got accepted and I still spend all my time here ☺️

[celest maple]

Oh that's understandable

[warped oriole]

Everyone here seems nice, I reckon this server would be good company no matter what.

[patent adder]

Yeah, that's why I like it here so much. The community is the greatest!

[celest maple]

Will there be leaderboards in this game?

[silent cairn]

I hope so as well and I hope we can keep the atmosphere until launch even with all the new people that will come. Sadly, the two MMOs I saw in recent years launch, despite all the hype, seemingly only had messages in chat about it being "the worst launch ever".

[celest maple]

Oh i shouldn't be asking this in here

[silent cairn]

So I hope we can avoid those feelings all the way until everything is peachy.

[patent adder]

Here is an FAQ that was compiled of basically everything we know! https://docs.google.com/document/d/1ECHPsDvyC0KP6ldYRaeFtmR0mhwBVGckWEPcH_zNc7E/edit

[warped oriole]

Yeah, agreed.

[native merlin]

thank you so much milky!

[celest maple]

Hello people, to get into the pre alpha do you sign up on the website and get an invite through discord ?

[native merlin]

does doing both questionnaires make you more likely to get in?

[warped oriole]

Presumably, baconking.

[patent adder]

Np. Here's the other one Rin had compiled that also has the art that's been revealed so far https://docs.google.com/document/d/1N61pu4gGNSrHTJ_UElbqk2FPl2QaN-hGJ3S5CYg4nzM/edit

[silent cairn]

Yeah, we don't really know what the plan for future waves is, but it definitely can't hurt.

[patent adder]

Sign up on the site and there is also another questionnaire in right here. And if you get chosen you'll get a roll on discord :3 #📢│palia-news message

[celest maple]

sounds good thank ya

[patent adder]

Np. I am happy to help how I can :3

[warm plover]

Im back for realsies now

[celest maple]

As I read through it

[warped oriole]

Thanks for compiling info on Palia, Rin.

[celest maple]

I found the romance topic

[patent adder]

Welcome back ^^

[celest maple]

The devs are basically telling us that we can make a harem as long as none of the npcs find out

[oblique nest]

whats good guys

[warm plover]

:D

[silent cairn]

Hahaha, it sounds like it. Though I doubt any of them will be very happy with the little amount of time you spend with them as you have to run to the next npc.

[celest maple]

I honestly don't want a player to player romance added in the game

It might turn into a dating game if it's added

[oblique nest]

oh dear, personally i dont really like when games contain some kind of romance option, stuff tends to get funky

[warm plover]

i feel like a lot of people here already have families though
being married to their irl partner(s) might be good for them

[silent cairn]

Honestly that's a very valid concern if this game is meant to be E for everyone.

[warm plover]

i dont know the exact number but i know there are A Lot of parents in this server

[patent adder]

Just hanging out, having a good time. What about you? :3

[celest maple]

To add, if you can have children in this game. Can you be a child of someone?

[oblique nest]

for me all I need is just to be able to sit together on different landscapes or have a cup of tea at the couch and that's plenty compared to other games already

[brittle halo]

E for Einar deserves a lil smooth on the cheek

[warm plover]

fair enough

[warped oriole]

And a most shiny pebble

[rose bison]

hi guys

[patent adder]

Hey Zeni ^^

[celest maple]

hello

[serene jasper]

hi

[patent adder]

Hey ^ ^

[warm plover]

lots of people suddenly

milky when are you sleeping

[patent adder]

They are more then people, Ren. They are friends. 🥺

[oblique nest]

is it the time?
well it's 5 am here

[serene jasper]

hru!

[high shoal]

I saw DoctorDDub's video about this game and got super excited

[patent adder]

I am good. How are you? :3

[warm plover]

I've been promoted from Rin to Ren
