breaking it real quick

[wind ibex]

Remember, you reap what you sow. So if you plant Chaos, that is what you will receive.

[warm plover]

arent you guys the ones sowing chaos
votes arent supposed to tie, after all

[merry crater]

Chaos isn’t inherently bad though. I like Palia’s chaos.

[worthy rose]

one time I accidentally reaped my pants at work :(

[abstract rover]

nish you make me crack up, stopit

[worthy rose]

I had to wear two aprons. One facing forward and one backward

I wonder if aprons are in palia? i want a selection of different kinds of chef clothes

[warm plover]

just wear an apron and literally nothing else

[abstract rover]

hot

[warm plover]

bonk

[abstract rover]

:c

[faint dawn]

Wheres the lamb sause?!

[merry crater]

The metal trays at the bottom of white boards destroyed my pants a few times. Used staples to fix them.
Maybe aprons and staples will be in Palia as an alternative to sewing kits. Who needs to mend clothes when you can be resourceful.

[buoyant heath]

Aprons are just underachieving overalls

[sand barn]

I wonder if you can go full birthday suit and skivvies

[abstract rover]

or be MacGyver and use duct tape.

[merry crater]

Duct tape is the ultimate tool.

[sand barn]

I've seen cars held together with ductape 😂

[abstract rover]

I SAWED THIS BOAT IN HALF

[worthy rose]

THAT'S A LOT OF DAMAGE

[abstract rover]

HOW BOUT A LITTLE MORE

[wind ibex]

Sorry we are good on DPS, we need healers.

[merry crater]

I’ll gladly run support if it’s a thing in Palia~

[wind ibex]

🤷‍♂️ who knows.

[abstract rover]

i want to be the villain in palia

[wind ibex]

Try Eco. You can be a Ferngully Villain in that game.

[merry crater]

I loved Eco when I first played it years ago. Have always wanted to return. Would probably be an ok recommendation for people wanting games to try while they wait for Palia.

[carmine relic]

Did someone need a support

[wind ibex]

Once I figure out the strange noise it was making I will be booting up my small Eco server again.

[carmine relic]

Have you tried hitting it and swearing at it?

[warm plover]

thats rude

[celest maple]

[carmine relic]

But it does work!

[desert umbra]

Hmm, duct tape cleric, thats got some possibilities

[carmine relic]

Bonus points if he has a party of warforged

[desert umbra]

Exactly!

[carmine relic]

Artificers also got some stuff, too

For the lurkers out there and any newcomers. Welcome to Palia : University Edition, you are attending the Introductory Course of Palia. Your class project for this course is to take a look through the channels and read the community compiled faq documents pinned to this channel. The one compiled by Vlad contains most if not all of the dev's research notes provided in the first week or two of this server opening and currently resides in the archived #❓│old-team-answers-pre-alpha channel. The one compiled by Rin is an overview and contains more up to date information gathered from the information available in #❓│old-team-answers-alpha , #❔│game-faqs and #🌠│official-art channels. Reading those documents will bring you up to what we know about Palia : The Game so far, along with the recently written blog on the Palia site accessed via the #📢│palia-news channel or the bottom of the Palia site itself. For extra credit, maybe you can think up some additions to the game and post them in the #game-suggestions channel. And if you haven't completed your Palia Work Project yet, make sure you sign up for an invite on the site and fill in the surveys. Again, welcome and we hope you enjoy waiting with us .

[tulip wagon]

I'm just amazed we finally got a Wendy's across the pond.

[abstract rover]

[worthy rose]

[worthy rose]

LOL

[tulip wagon]

Naughty nish

[surreal crest]

aight nish, I would like you to put your hands behind your back...

[tulip wagon]

That's your next username

[worthy rose]

The urge was overwhelming and I did not look before I posted

[clear prism]

Chat derailed? I guess its a normal thing when I enter.

[surreal crest]

imma arrest you mkay

[tulip wagon]

How you gunna take credit for my Wendy's bants?

[worthy rose]

I'm just gonna head out bye

[stone sierra]

Did someone said 'Pierogi'?

[surreal crest]

Don't... Don't do that man, I'm after my shift, don't wanna to start with a chase

[tulip wagon]

Food of the gods mate

[tulip wagon]

May I call you Niche?

[bright forge]

"How to summon Polish men"

[clear prism]

Kurwa?

[stone sierra]

There are some other summoning phrases but not all of them are Family Friendly

[ocean stone]

Dang why couldn't they have Wendy's when I lived there. Smh

[carmine relic]

Wait what happened

[bright forge]

and yes

[tulip wagon]

Want me to post you a Frosty?

[buoyant heath]

There is no war in Ba Sing Se

[stone sierra]

"Free stuff!" also works in most cases

[ocean stone]

[abstract rover]

kurwa

[bright forge]

stop ussing that that word pls

[clear prism]

Its a russian word now

[stone sierra]

I second that, already regret mentioning the phrases

[clear prism]

Means chicken or something

[tulip wagon]

trims csr 's edges

[bright forge]

You mean Kura?

[abstract rover]

no

[clear prism]

Yes, but in slang variant we just made

[tulip wagon]

Yo have you guys heard about Palia? It's just this thing I heard about somewhere.

[abstract rover]

never. do tell

[stone sierra]

Please tell me all you know

[bright forge]

Is it some kind of food?

[clear prism]

So a long ass time ago gumans got wiped from fantasy land and now theu reemerged to take it back from xenoraces. Or something, ita headcanon

[stone sierra]

does it have onions?

[clear prism]

Also i hate typing on phone

[stone sierra]

or beets?

[carmine relic]

Never heard of it, what is it?

[faint dawn]

unbalances Ashura again

[bright forge]

[tulip wagon]

Normally I would treat you to one of my Offal story time adventures but there's a baconator and a Frosty in my belly.

I may lose consiousness

[carmine relic]

I guess I'll wait for the story then

[stone sierra]

Baconator? Now you must tell more!

[tulip wagon]

I'm fading fast buddy.

[carmine relic]

I can't revify.

[faint dawn]

Food comas...

[clear prism]

so the first time humans remerged they decided to build their first town. But since we are talking about hoomans and tribalism nature peiple spread into two religions and stsrted a war.

[tulip wagon]

Has no one told you about this???

[abstract rover]

I'm dying inside

[faint dawn]

I just had some serious icecream cake.. :P

[clear prism]

These were known as Chapaa and Chuu first Paladin War.

[stone sierra]

is that a burger but with a lot of bacon instead of the beef?

[tulip wagon]

No no, it's lots of both.

[stone sierra]

Now I want it...

[tulip wagon]

Find the nearest Wendy's.

[stone sierra]

and to keep it on topic I want to be able to make one in Palia

[carmine relic]

I hate you autocorrect

[bright forge]

so outisde of Poland

[abstract rover]

we dont have wendys where i live. it's a city of sinners

[carmine relic]

I CAST revify! Now tell me the story!

[tulip wagon]

Lord has taken over storytime!

[bright forge]

Wait a minute wizard don't have a Revify on their list? #rules_lawyer

[clear prism]

Now i dont exactly know how it happened - was busy getting fired from 2 jobs

[carmine relic]

Objection, rule 0

[tulip wagon]

The floor recognises Lord Jason of Priestly.
motions to carry on

[stone sierra]

Closest one is in Canada...

just one ocean to cross? Where is my kayak?

[bright forge]

Fave fun, right...

[carmine relic]

Yeah, rule 0 is basically "DM is the final arbiter, if he says it's ok it's ok" which can, by extent, mean "If it's fun go ahead"

[tulip wagon]

I'm closer to you than Canada, so just come over.

[stone sierra]

also known as "A rule of cool"

[stone sierra]

so google lied to me 😮

[warm plover]

what did i miss

[tulip wagon]

Yes. Yes it did.

sits with Rin and listens to storytime.

[clear prism]

Now from checking the chapaas online i can tell that chapaas lost the war. Time lords restricted existance to some of them and Space wizards also never took them into Alpha cool gang or smtg.

[merry crater]

If there was a Nishtake I missed out on it too.

[worthy rose]

shh there was no such thing

[merry crater]

Nishtaken Identity.

[tulip wagon]

sings in Men at Work
It's a Nishtake...
It's a Nishtaaaaaake

[clear prism]

Which enabled the tribalism nature of hoomans to enrich - people considered becoming witches, vampires and so on. Chuus heresy overall. Some of them even decided to be hobos.

[sturdy frigate]

about the lamps, i think 1 looks elite :3

[merry crater]

They all look lovely. Can’t wait to see more furniture.

[bright forge]

I can't wait to see game...

[merry crater]

I’m expecting next weeks game play snippet to be smol but it’s still exciting~

[buoyant heath]

It's mostly going to be nish trying to delete something he put into chat

[bright forge]

100%

so Q&A x10 like always guys or someone hopes fore something bigger?

[clear prism]

Had to do some work at my job surprisingly.

[sturdy frigate]

do you guys think there will be frogs in the game

[merry crater]

Oooh I have know idea how big the QA might be this time. I’m not sure if we’ve been told.

[bright forge]

yes

[sturdy frigate]

thanks

[merry crater]

I’d love frogs. Wouldn’t hurt to have them since there’s fish.

[clear prism]

We have just talked about polish people... do we talk about fr ch now?

[sturdy frigate]

saame, i want them as like friendly and not enemies :((

[clear prism]

Anyway whats the story now? I have to pay attention to stuff going on in these chats. But im sure its some heresy.

[bright forge]

there is one sculpture(trash can?) that look like frog in one of arts.

[sturdy frigate]

that sounds fantastic 😮

[bright forge]

https://palia.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/06/Media-Carousel06.jpg here

[sturdy frigate]

OH

[bright forge]

is it good OH or bad OH?

[sturdy frigate]

HE LOOKS SOO ADORABALE

[clear prism]

Looks deadly

[sturdy frigate]

gf approves too, she just went OOHH HES CUTE

[merry crater]

Yeee~ that’s such a cute frog thing!

[remote latch]

I will suspect 10ish like normal but at least its back to weekly rather than monthly

[bright forge]

We will see...

[remote latch]

but yeah hopefully more .. but alot of the last months questions were money/pre-alpha based questions ..so hopefully more useful answers once those are dealt with

[bright forge]

And I think not that many new questions appear now.

[remote latch]

I have tons in my head to ask .. I gave up when they switched to monthly .. less chance of being picked with only 10 being answered from a long list made during the month

[bright forge]

I have so many questions too but I will not ask them and just wait and see.

Since majority of them will not likely be answered right now

[remote latch]

I'm intrigued with their server selection system which I think was a question I asked so 🤞 it gets answered in some way .. and I'm wondering about the neighbourhood system .. is it just a guild or is it something more meaningful being a social game and all

[bright forge]

I think servers will be more like shard system

[remote latch]

I'm happy without the details due to them maybe not being ironed out but at least some confirmation that our fears are unfounded ( server selection and regions ) and that neighbourhoods are more than just guilds.

But don't other MMOs use shards ? They said their servers are unique amongst MMOs.

[cloud horizon]

You have all asked some great questions. I'm excited to see which ones they answer.

[bright forge]

That's why "more like" and not just shards.

[remote latch]

ah .. must learn to read sentences completely rather than speed read them rofl

[bright forge]

My dear honestley I have no clue but I hope it will work and be something good.

You know for what I'm waiting the most guys?

[remote latch]

alpha ?

[bright forge]

I'm waiting for no NDA so all testers can be here without fear.

[remote latch]

yeah thats always good

[cloud horizon]

You can be hear without fear :) just nod your head and smile

Thats what I do.

[worthy rose]

[remote latch]

love to do that but we're the ones that didn't get in .. so we're knowledgeless 🙂

[cloud horizon]

I don't answer anything about the game. Just encourage good discussion and support all of the community stuff!

[merry crater]

Nish knows no fear.

Only chaos.

[deep frigate]

even when/if we have a NDA-free testing phase, what happened during prior NDAs still will be NDA though.

[bright forge]

We are under bridge crew

[worthy rose]

The only thing I'm scared of is myself

[buoyant heath]

UPDATE: frogs aren't real

[remote latch]

frogs are princes that are cursed

[deep frigate]

then what did I have to dissect during 10th grade biology class?

[remote latch]

I am so glad I didn't have to do that over here 🙂

[bright forge]

Is it really a thing still?

[cloud horizon]

That reminded me oddly of that meme where the guy says "If I give you 50K but the person you hate the most gets 100K would you take it." And the person replies with "Sure. I don't hate anyone as much as I hate myself. "

[deep frigate]

that was 8-9 years ago for me, but ya

[remote latch]

what age is 10th grade ?

[buoyant heath]

It was probably your own perceptions of self worth and the endless toil of trying to actualize an honest thought in the unrelenting constant fabrications of the void

[worthy rose]

4

[deep frigate]

15-ish

[cloud horizon]

Roughly 16

[deep frigate]

that checks out yea

[remote latch]

ah yeah over here that would have only been a thing if you had chosen biology as your science class .. I chose Chemistry instead

[deep frigate]

here (US, michigan) we had mandatory physical science (IPS/FME I don't remember what that stands for though lmao), biology, chemistry, and then optional physics in our senior year (edit: optional meaning we still had to have a science class that year and most people still chose physics, but I didn't, I dual enrolled at our community college instead and that counted as science for me)

[worthy rose]

The chapaa is the powerhouse of the cell

[bright forge]

I had Physic but I remember nothing so (I just graduated high school)

[cloud horizon]

Chapaas due seen to have the energy equivalent of a mitochondria

[clear wraith]

Yea US in Texas here, went to high school during the 1990s and you needed a certain number of years of science to graduate. Biology and chemistry both were required at the very least

[worthy rose]

Mitochapdria

[deep frigate]

half the people that took physics at my school chose it SOLELY for the end-of-the-year trip to the roller coaster amusement park (which they had to do an assignment at, about physics of the roller coasters)

[deep frigate]

mitochapaadria

do you think chapaas are bound by the rules of physics?

[bright forge]

I don't know what you are taking before comming here but pls take half.

[worthy rose]

Half of tomorrow's too? Ok

[mellow verge]

We had to have mandatory two years science, three history, 2 math and 4 English to graduate.
That was 2002-2006

[clear wraith]

We dissected frogs but, more fun, we also had a lab day dissecting fresh squid, and my teacher had a deep fryer going in the back to make calamari when we were done

[mellow verge]

I got to dissect a shark in summer school!

[bright forge]

oh no ...

[deep frigate]

omg that is cool. I don't think any (public) school could do that now

[merry crater]

Deng. Senior year I would’ve had Chem or Physics but opted out of some senior gen eds (was a vocational student instead).
Took medical biology my junior year though.
Wonder what school would be like in Palia.

[remote latch]

rofl .. just realised darkwing is softpaw in spooky guise .. excellent 🙂

[mellow verge]

My last two years of high school I took trade school digital design from lunch until school was out. It was fun.

Let's get danger... Wrong darkwing

[deep frigate]

oooh yes. we know that jina is an apprentice scholar, so schools must be a thing

[remote latch]

well we know they have the institute where the human studies are happening .. wonder what other educational aspects the NPCs have to endure rofl Or maybe we get to take part in as part of our abilities/skills training

[merry crater]

I had digital media arts vocational courses my senior year (my counselor wouldn’t let me opt out of PE my junior year so I could only have one year of vocational)

[clear wraith]

I did biology, chemistry, physics, earth science (a combo geology/ meteorology/ oceanography), astronomy, and a semester as a science teacher’s aide because I’m a huuuuuuuuuuuuge nerd

[mellow verge]

Mmmm in days of yore you could apprentice under someone who is a master without school. Idk how Palia will handle it though

[remote latch]

I thought they may use the master/apprentice thing

[mellow verge]

Oh yeah, we had to have one year of gym as well. I took mine freshmen year

[bright forge]

There is Bahari Institute tho....

[merry crater]

All four for me oh well. School was chaos, much like Palia chat.

[worthy rose]

Chaos is fun

Keeps things lively

[merry crater]

what if we ARE the humans that vanished in Palia. Our people accidentally sent them selves to Earth and now so many generations later we have finally accidentally sent ourselves back!?

[celest maple]

Fishing

[remote latch]

well for some of us it was history 😛

[warm plover]

mind if i grab some of those for the doc xrystal

i'm still not sure if cooking is a skill with a skill bar

[remote latch]

Sure .. its what I grabbed from their cards so double check the wording in case I paraphrased 🙂

[warm plover]

like i know it 99% is but without official confirmation i cant in good faith put it in
....oooor I could just change the wording

[remote latch]

exactly 🙂

[celest maple]

Ngl i hope everything has a little minigame mechanic. Even basic stuff like chopping trees and mining. Thatd be nice.

[worthy rose]

Fishing fun as hell

[celest maple]

Facts

[worthy rose]

in palia

[abstract rover]

if i can't be a barista, i want to be a prospector who digs for rare earths.

[remote latch]

hmm now, is that 'fishing is fun as hell, in palia' or 'fishing is fun, as hell in Palia' ?

[worthy rose]

No no

Fishing "is" fun, as; hell- in ||Palia||

[remote latch]

thanks for clearing that up niiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiish 🙂 edit: added more i's edit2: added more i's

[abstract rover]

you spelled his name wrong

[worthy rose]

How many i's are in my name?

[warm plover]

.....Fishing is the only thing thats been 100% confirmed as a skill right
i know it's almost certain the other things also count as skill but there's always a possibility that they just dont have a level bar

[abstract rover]

breathing and existing has also been 100% confirmed as a skill

[warm plover]

wild

[remote latch]

well they said we have tons of bars to fill so I would take it that there will be skills to level in each profession area

[worthy rose]

Playing the game is an irl skill pog

[warm plover]

Well yeah I know they have tons of bars to fill but like
I don't know if I can mark them down as actual skills without actual confirmation from S6, yknow? Things like hunting and bug catching and cooking make sense to be skills but theres always a (small) chance theyre not

[remote latch]

yeah hard to define what to call them .. skills/abilities/professions/tasks

or paths

[cloud horizon]

Good question!

[remote latch]

Rin, you could put in a temporary title of Things you can do or possibly do in Palia - and then change it when you get something more concrete

[abstract rover]

skabilifessiontasks

or taskabilifessions if you want to be fancy. it's a very fun compound word for all 4 things.

[warm plover]

I'm calling things you can do "activities" and things with bars to fill up "skills"

[abstract rover]

makes sense

[warm plover]

i should make a new section for this actually
rn its hiding in Trivia

[bright forge]

26

[worthy rose]

Who knowssssss what things are skills 🤷‍♂️

[abstract rover]

i dunno, how about you nish?

[worthy rose]

O shit, big if true

[warm plover]

They did mention that good cooks make better food than bad cooks or something
but then again that could be about the minigame...

and i should remove the prealpha sections

[remote latch]

Just bunch them together until we know for sure

[clear wraith]

Watching this gotta be like 🤐

[warm plover]

sorry testers 😔 im just doing my best with what ive got

[worthy rose]

did you ever hear that quote from yoshi-p, the head dev of ff14?
"Job effectiveness will depend on player skill"

[clear wraith]

Nooooo I love to see the speculation!

[remote latch]

We know its hard .. I bet you're chomping at the bit to blurt out everything rofl

[deep frigate]

I very much appreciate all the hard work you put into the document and compiling all of the info that you do know! I just wish I was able to help lol

[worthy rose]

right now I'm thinking about refilling my water

[clear wraith]

I just can’t join because

[remote latch]

I know its hard for me to word my questions carefully .. thats why I was so specific .. like Did you enjoy your day in Palia ? Clearly a yes/no question .. safe

[worthy rose]

you know, I don't think there was a single thing I did were I was like "this sucks"

if that was an actual question

[remote latch]

I'll make it a question so the answer works 🙂 Thanks 🙂

[warm plover]

yo while im writing this can someone get 1. the date singularity 6 was founded 2. the date palia was announced and 3. the date the discord was founded for me

[remote latch]

1. Linked In only has year of 2018. 2 and 3. 3rd June

[deep frigate]

I did.

Closing palia for the last time....

[warm plover]

Thanks xrystal you're a treasure

[celest forge]

Huh? I thought the testing phase was over already

[deep frigate]

yes pre-alpha is over, I mean that closing palia at the end of testing sucked

[celest forge]

Ahh gotcha

[bright forge]

When you open it again I will be waiting for you (at least I hope so)

[carmine relic]

Finally back.

[warm plover]

yo i forgot jina existed

[carmine relic]

Jina?

[deep frigate]

jina: #🌠│official-art message

[carmine relic]

Whoa, is this a new character?

[deep frigate]

no, I believe she was the first one released? someone pls correct if I am wrong

[remote latch]

she was released early on

2nd one after Einar

[warm plover]

Where was the source on mining being a thing again?

[wind ibex]

The Trailer

[warm plover]

yeah that tracks ok

[remote latch]

technically stonecutting in the video let me check the site to see if mining is mentioned there

[wind ibex]

Yeah, the trailer towards the end had someone hitting a rock with a pick.

[remote latch]

nope .. just says on the site Garden, fish, cook and so much more! Level up and gain new abilities and tools to succeed.

[warm plover]

welp i think i got everything then

[heavy dew]

At this point I’m not sure if you genuinely forgot or just playing a role xD

[merry crater]

Gambit just working on his disguise.

[heavy dew]

Doing it very well I must say

[remote latch]

This is what I got regarding mining/gathering in #❓│old-team-answers-pre-alpha, not the most useful of Q&As 🤣 ```md151850 — 06/04/2021
do we have to mine before our crafting?

What will be the core gameplay loop for this game? Judging from the trailer it seems like some sort of gathering -> improving house -> leveling up professions?
[S6] BuscoBear — 06/04/2021
yes but gathering takes many forms, like hunting

Prokzy — 06/04/2021
Crafting?
[S6] BuscoBear — 06/04/2021
Crafting to gather, gathering to craft```

[remote latch]

yeah I was laughing while extracting them

[heavy dew]

I just vibe with it because it’s like answering but not answering and I love doing that to people

[warm plover]

ah does anyone have any juicy tidbits about when s6 mentioned neighbourhoods
i swear there was something interesting but i cant find it and im writing so i cant look for it that much

[heavy dew]

There’s barely any mention at all of neighborhoods other than that they’re like more cozy guilds

[remote latch]

The only interesting bit about neighbourhoods is from the multiple sites that attended a preview

[warm plover]

aye can you give me some choice excerpts or a link

[remote latch]

yeah hold on .. I have a post with the different links you can add for 'not all confirmed by devs list' 🙂

thats better 🙂

[wind ibex]

need spaces for them all to show up.

[heavy dew]

Don’t know about mobile but on pc you can remove the spaces once you’ve typed them out

[carmine relic]

You'll never know!

[heavy dew]

Oh I’ll find out one of these days Gambit! Next time… next time! Muahaha

Dududuruduru forgetful Gambit

[wind ibex]

I typed them as colon commands in a text doc so I can post 2 lines at once. the lack of spaces made the N and D appear as letters instead of emotes. But now I have a fast way to have my NDA response instead of clicking it out each time.

Najuma doesn't like the NDA...

[remote latch]

Ah is that what it means .. was thinking Najuma is creating the NDA firechapaa

[wind ibex]

Chapaas are holding an NDA banner. Najuma blew them up.

[warm plover]

where did they mention you cant glitch objects into each other i gotta get a screenshot of it

[remote latch]

ah gotcha .. maybe you can do nda firechapaa > najuma > explosion > firechapaa without nda

[remote latch]

think thats in #❓│old-team-answers-pre-alpha

[warm plover]

cheers

yeah found it cheers

[heavy dew]

Yeah I always read that as najuma blowing up the question and from the smoke comes the NDA chapaa

[remote latch]

if you were sourcing the dev notes you have in your document Rin, you might want to copy the post as a whole rather than a link .. as we may lose access to the channel at some point

[warm plover]

im taking screenshots

[worthy rose]

im taking a nap

[warm plover]

cant find the original quote for this
"Romance will be only between players and npc(gender doesn’t matter). Currently no player to player romance but they are looking into it (It was mentioned in one of the house sharing related questions)"

[remote latch]

that is definitely in ask-the-team

[warm plover]

i tried looking for it in the search bar but i only found other people quoting it

[remote latch]

ok hold on

Found this .. sounds like lots of hairstyles coming to the game TrustySidekick — 06/05/2021 PLEASE have tons of character customizations... Especially hairstyles!!! [S6] BuscoBear — 06/05/2021 This is a firehose we intend to turn all the way up to 11

Yes! You'll be able to romance the villagers and they all have unique storylines attached to the relationship system. Romance is not tied to gender, so everyone will be able to romance their favorite NPC.```

We'll have relationships and romance, things like spouses and children could come later```

[worthy rose]

😩 I'm ready for my queen mommy Tish

[remote latch]

Without commenting on marriage, the relationship system isn't limited in any way by a player's gender.```   ```[S6] BuscoBear — 06/05/2021
You can romance more than 1 NPC, careful who you kiss and tell```  ```[S6] BuscoBear — 06/04/2021
Could happen, no info beyond romancing NPCs atm```

[wind ibex]

I noticed that there are pictures they have been posting of player characters with two tone hair. Like one had Red and Black hair.

[remote latch]

yeah they said you can have multicoloured hair .. even pink rofl

[warm plover]

did they mention that any clothes could be worn by either bodytype or did i hallucinate that its 4:40 am im so tired

[remote latch]

no thats there too

[wind ibex]

#💬│palia-discussions message

[remote latch]

We're trying to avoid male/female. You choose a body type and all the customization options are tailored to fit all body types```

[warm plover]

thanks

[remote latch]

I put the romance/relationship quotes closest to what you asked somewhere above 🙂

[south blade]

so to be 100% sure; yall are making it basically androgenous genderless humans?

[remote latch]

did you watch the video ? clearly male and female characters

[south blade]

I've seen the trailers, but the explaination of "Avoiding male/female" sounds like masc/fem but no real gender.

made it more appealing tbh

[worthy rose]

I think the idea is that you just pick whatever you like more and it doesn't matter what is what

even if they're distinctly different shaped

[wind ibex]

I think they are making it so you can be the buchest man possible and still wear a miniskirt...

or a dainty lil girl in a Powersuit.

[deep frigate]

to be fair, we don't really know the options that S6 will give us, nor do we know what labels (or lack of labels) will be used.

[celest maple]

As long as they put out dope outfits on the regular and dont have loot boxes im happy.

[wind ibex]

Please don't make me rant on monetization again...

[remote latch]

[celest maple]

[deep frigate]

[worthy rose]

I hope I can buy the coolest outfits with irl money

[wind ibex]

My eye is twitching...

[worthy rose]

[remote latch]

apart from this: [S6] BuscoBear — 06/04/2021 You don't choose a gender or pronoun, just a body type Assumingly the body type will define the look and all customizations will fit the body types

[warm plover]

im so tired is it ok to write this as an answer to a question i cant be bothered figuring out how to write it comprehensively

Maybe?????

[remote latch]

You could put .. it may be added at a later stage/date

[deep frigate]

yeah I think a "not yet, maybe later" is the answer we have gotten about that

[warm plover]

ugh finally im done

[remote latch]

now rest 🙂

[warm plover]

im missing stuff about like. npc romance and stuff i just noticeduihasjn fuck whatever people can find that information themselves

[wind ibex]

Why do I remember there being a quote saying that are hesitant to put player-player romance in the game due to what if the rl romance ends, what happens to the in game content they shared. and they didn't want to get in the middle of that.

[remote latch]

there might be something about that .. not 100% sure

[wind ibex]

Might it have been about players sharing ownership of a plot?

[warm plover]

i dont think s6 said that, i think that was a discussion in here

[celest maple]

Yeah, that was what some of us were talkin bout. Not the devs.

[wind ibex]

I could have sworn I heard it in a video. Like someone was reading a Q&A or an interview.

[remote latch]

the question was asked a few times in #❓│old-team-answers-pre-alpha but I can't see an answer within a few pages

[mellow verge]

I remember some kind of talk about player to player romance and possible permissions to help each other's houses

Cause some people don't want to romance npcs

[wind ibex]

I do remember them saying you can give people permission to edit your plot, but you can't share ownership.

[mellow verge]

Romance will be only between players and npc(gender doesn’t matter). Currently no player to player romance but they are looking into it (It was mentioned in one of the house sharing related questions)
I don't have an exact quote from the FAQ but this is what it says
(I still don't know why it's called the FAQ actually)

[warm plover]

they did say cooperative housing is a big goal though, so you cant share ownership... yet.

[mellow verge]

Rin had quoted that originally

There's also this, sorry about the tagging

That was back in June

[remote latch]

yeah thats a large selection of whats in #❓│old-team-answers-pre-alpha

[mellow verge]

I hope, given who we've seen so far, they'll have some more mature dateable options

Badruu is married. Eshe is a bit old, but also married.
Ashura?

[vast wyvern]

👀

[remote latch]

Eris

[vast wyvern]

Howdy! Happy Friday everyone!

[mellow verge]

I'll steal Badruu, I'll be a homewrecker

[wind ibex]

They did mention that you can romance multiple NPCs, but it might turn bad if you do. I suspect romancing a married NPC might do the same thing.

[worthy rose]

HELLOOOOOO eris!

[mellow verge]

Hmm
Allowing poly-romance would be fun

[carmine relic]

Aye, heya Eris!

[remote latch]

Eris, are you able to confirm that there was a preview event attended by various gaming news sites just before or on the day of release?

[wind ibex]

I have trouble finding 1 person to like me and you are planning on having several? Talk about rubbing it in.

[vast wyvern]

i'm not! i don't actually know anything about that

[remote latch]

thats cool .. keep forgetting to ask 🙂

[vast wyvern]

yeah, I have been so busy so i've been kind of stuck in a corner with my head down

[remote latch]

but hey its another Friday .. 2 days off 🙂

[vast wyvern]

YUS, y'all doing anything fun?

[mellow verge]

They're npc, they won't mind.
Though having "jealousy" for too much focus on another lover could add spice.

I won't say too much, I've seen arguments over this topic.
I just think it would be neat and since there's no bother with gender preference by npc, I think having more sexuality options would be fun.

[remote latch]

sitting in here chatting and rustling through questions and answers in #❓│old-team-answers-pre-alpha rofl so a normal day 🙂

[merry crater]

cooking hotdogs and campfire pies in the backyard tomorrow with my mister. That counts as fun~

[vast wyvern]

I think we're trying to get more info for y'all!

[remote latch]

:AuniExcited: >> still waiting for emote rofl

[deep frigate]

Hi Eris!

Nothing fun this weekend for me, which is actually fun - I LOVE not having plans lol

[remote latch]

lots of randomness is cool

[vast wyvern]

OK SO WEEKLY QUESTION. I work with all the environment stuff, so i have a question to you alllll

[mellow verge]

My husband has to work overtime today so I'm kinda down v.v

[vast wyvern]

WHAT KIND OF FURNITURE SETS WOULD YOU LIKE TO SEE?

[deep frigate]

all of them, probably

[worthy rose]

ONES THAT ARE CONSTANTLY ON FIRE BUT DONT HURT YOU

END GAME FURNITURE

[remote latch]

Having a farm .. that rustic farmhouse style will be great 🙂

[merry crater]

Lumberjack inspired.

[carmine relic]

"This is fine"

[mellow verge]

I can't answer this here

[deep frigate]

So we have seen the sneak peak of the "log set" furniture in #🌠│official-art this past week.
In addition to a cozy log house, I think farmhouse like mentioned would be nice. Maybe something "fancier" too. Not sure what kind of materials in-game can be used to make furniture, we've seen wood in the log set, but if there is a metal type of material, some cool metal pieces would be awesome. I want an iron park bench to put next to a pond/picnic area type of vibe.

[sand barn]

Furniture sets like.. a salt and pepper shaker?

[mellow verge]

Seafaring theme would be cool.
Or something dark (gothic)
Stone theme

[merry crater]

Some palian spin on Victorian style would be fun. Let me embrace all the old lady vibes!!!

[sand barn]

Eastern influenced furniture would be cool too!

[worthy rose]

ERIS CAN I PLEASE HAVE FIRE CHAIR

[merry crater]

I love traditional Japanese home decor, so eastern stuff would be lovely.

[sand barn]

Or the sort of Scandinavian log/cosy home decor style

[worthy rose]

you know what had mad cozy vibes?

the lodge home in mhw iceborne. Gimmie more of that

[sand barn]

A fire chair?

[deep frigate]

lots of cozy blankets + cushions + pillows too please.

[carmine relic]

A pile of pillows.

[sand barn]

Wait a minute, can we build pillow forts inside our house?

[surreal crest]

you already know.

[merry crater]

Nordic/Viking could be a fun vibe too.

[carmine relic]

Mystic kinds?

[surreal crest]

yes!

[merry crater]

Everything made out of sentient chairs?

Don’t let Nish near, they’ll set you all on fire.

[surreal crest]

Mushroom/enchanted wood/twisted, "raw" like not polished, made out of branches etc

[merry crater]

Yeeees

[worthy rose]

mushroom chair!!

a real toad stool!

🥁

[deep frigate]

What about a shimmerfly set - something a bit more iridescent perhaps? reflective with different colors? sparkles?????

[mellow verge]

Cottage core

[remote latch]

I now have both smurfs and mario kart songs in my head

[sand barn]

If I knew how to phonetically do the rainbow road themesong, I would

[carmine relic]

I'm happy so long as I have my pointy wizard hat.

[mellow verge]

Magical anything set would be nice.

[sand barn]

A floating couch!

[deep frigate]

ooh yes a wizardy/witchy set with something magical would be awesome too

[surreal crest]

Also crude metal sets! sharp edges, bolted together

[merry crater]

I love the look of un polished welds.

[deep frigate]

we could come up with so many ideas, eris is going to have a long list

[vast wyvern]

I want it!

[merry crater]

Doesn’t count as a set, but I’d appreciate many much stuffed animals.

Plushies not taxidermy

[deep frigate]

side note, this would be a great art prompt sometime - design your dream palian furniture set 🙂

[sand barn]

Einar inspired furniture?

[vast wyvern]

PLEASE MAKE THIS

[worthy rose]

call it einarture

[surreal crest]

@cinder temple

[sand barn]

Or.. furninar?

[deep frigate]

okie I posted that idea in the #🎨│old-palia-fan-art channel 🙂

[merry crater]

Could go crazy and do something inspired by the Hansel and Gretle witch. Candy/baked good inspired stuff.

[remote latch]

Romance themed because of that side of the game 🙂

[deep frigate]

OH: ROCKS. Not indoor furniture, but cobblestone pillars, pathways, chimneys, exteriors... very cottage-core

Wicker furniture we can make out of straw or something of the sort.

[surreal crest]

BONES! not really PG-13 but you know, bone furniture.
Also marble! a lot of marble!

[merry crater]

Animal Crossing New Horizons has a ton of Celestial/Star themed pieces that glow. I love that vibe.

[sacred magnet]

[surreal crest]

NATURE! like enchanted grass furniture

[heavy dew]

What's not pg about some bones? I'm sure hunters with their trophies and skulls and antlers have children

[deep frigate]

Sets based on flora in palia would be fun too. It would be nice to have a feminine set that matches a flower in game, etc.

[sand barn]

I was gonna say, the sort of nature takes over furniture would be cool!

[worthy rose]

imagine being able to sit in a giant pitcher plant

[surreal crest]

I mean, the same idea as for Villagers in Minecraft - Mojang doesn't want you to kill them and they make everything to make it not-profitable, but these guys still have HP

[sand barn]

Can we have grumpy fish inspired furniture?

[worthy rose]

[remote latch]

Rofl I doubt we’ll be imagining for long

[deep frigate]

Elven inspired furniture that looks like the wood was grown into intricate shapes and patterns, with lots of brown and green earthy tones

[heavy dew]

I want me some royal/victorian/posh af furniture

[sand barn]

I hope Eris is making a list

[worthy rose]

I hope he's checking it twice

[deep frigate]

santa reth appears

[surreal crest]

CASINO FURNITURE! Like chip-themed! Black and red and green! (prettyplease)

[sand barn]

And if he doesn't, we'll tell Aiden who's been naughty and nice

[surreal crest]

and if not - typical card-themed sets B)

OH OH LIKE IN ALICE IN WONDERLAND with card soldiers!

[worthy rose]

ok hear me out

[deep frigate]

more fire?

[heavy dew]

I will hear you in

[worthy rose]

upside down furniture. It'sjust bog standard stuff, but upside down. Nobody acknowledges it or talks about it but it's definitely upside down

[surreal crest]

or it looks like its upside down, like parts of it are upside down etc

[remote latch]

Illusionary furniture

[heavy dew]

Or.. you could just break the engine and be upside down

[surreal crest]

CHAOS FURNITURE!
Like nothing matches, each table leg is made out of something else
(think Discord from My Little Pony)

[sand barn]

I wonder if you can place your furniture on the ceiling so your house looks upside down

[deep frigate]

let's just make nish upside down

[surreal crest]

yeah, would be simpler

[carmine relic]

I don't know what furniture I'd want. I guess magical/wizard-study vibes is what I want.

[worthy rose]

okay!

[remote latch]

Ah gambit I see you are now navigating a nebula

[merry crater]

Riffed off Chaos furniture. Messy (but not gross) furniture, for those of us who don’t want things to look super clean

[carmine relic]

I'm getting there!

[vast wyvern]

I'm making a list, haha

[surreal crest]

ROYAL STUFF! THRONES! RICH-DETAILED CHAIRS!

[remote latch]

Crazy cat lady furniture with cat scratches and all

[sand barn]

Eris is definitely nice, and he's checking the list twice!

[worthy rose]

I want furniture that makes sounds when you interact with it. A bed that screams when you lay down. A door that farts when you open it. A chair that moans when you sit

[vast wyvern]

uh

[sand barn]

Asmr furniture?

[worthy rose]

that's not a no

[deep frigate]

I dont think Chair would like that...

[surreal crest]

pls don't make chairs moan.

[sand barn]

What if they give you compliments as you sit down? "You have a wonderful posterior"

[carmine relic]

I would instantly get up and run if a chair said that.

[surreal crest]

also! cursed/broken-like sets? Like parts of furniture is just flying in the air without being attached

[merry crater]

Would like many lovely clocks too. Including perhaps a grandfather clock and a cuckoo clock

[mellow verge]

I definitely want a witch/wizard
Or cottage core set

[worthy rose]

please do not discourage my ideas. The more batshit insane ideas I throw out, the more reasonable all your ideas seem

[deep frigate]

plants.
That's the whole set. Tons of plants. I love plants.

[mellow verge]

Bat set!!

[carmine relic]

So like some druid stuff, or overgrown?

[marble hedge]

Bat winged glider.

[surreal crest]

PINK! cute stuff, candies and glitter ~~ ✨

[merry crater]

Glider motifs could be a whole new tangent 👀 maybe later.

[sand barn]

Instruments would also be a nice furniture touch

Although I guess they're not really furniture

[mellow verge]

I loved the shimmerfly idea.

[surreal crest]

Glass furniture! Like Skyrim glass

[carmine relic]

Instant fear in the whole server as someone sees a veteran glider

[worthy rose]

massive office supplies that act as furniture. Giant stapler bed, tape dispenser table, stapler remover stool

[deep frigate]

all

[mellow verge]

I'm not good at drawing furniture but I definitely feel inspired

[deep frigate]

same! now I want to try to draw one but i have never drawn furniture before... soooo.... it might end poorly

[mellow verge]

Concepts are always a good start point

[vast wyvern]

you can also send reference!

[worthy rose]

hyper modern furniture all made out of concrete with super clean and straight lines

[mellow verge]

"isn't my cinder block couch comfy?"

[merry crater]

Uh-oh. Nish in the upside down?

[surreal crest]

in DMs?

[carmine relic]

About to leap onto Darkwing's couch thinking it just looks like a brick

[vast wyvern]

No, haha, for the Community Art thing 😆

[deep frigate]

yeah nish wanted upside down furniture but it was easier to just turn nish upside down instead

[merry crater]

Missed op for pfp to also be upside down.

[surreal crest]

a thread for that could be useful

[worthy rose]

nobody can even tell what my pfp is anyway :(

[heavy dew]

and checking it twice?

[mellow verge]

Agree. A concepts channel or "wish list"

Definitely a timer on it so it wouldn't be flooded and limited chatting

[merry crater]

What is? I can see eyes but idk if that’s right.

[carmine relic]

At least Nish knows to speak to Life's Manager

[heavy dew]

It's very obviously a mango raspberry smoothie

[surreal crest]

oh oh! Insects-inspired furniture! Gonna drop a reference in a moment,
also Honey furniture! Like bee hive themed and everything

[worthy rose]

https://i.imgur.com/CspnD9I.jpg

[carmine relic]

Do you hate bug-phobia neighbors? Boy do we have the deal for you

Oh ok, it's Entomophobia. If your friends are Entomophobic, don't let them into your house, CHair.

[merry crater]

was gonna guess one of the lake guardians!!! Was kinda close~

[surreal crest]

bzzzzzzzzzzzz

[mellow verge]

Cute bug furniture would be nice or something more serious but not creepy

[merry crater]

Just gotta be careful to avoid phobia triggers like spooders.

[carmine relic]

I despise bugs. Don't you dare bring bugs near me.

[worthy rose]

it kinda looks like azelf!

[surreal crest]

B-Bees tho

[heavy dew]

Phobia mode: renders all crawlers/bugs as 2d flat images of ice cream

[merry crater]

I’m down with that fix.

[heavy dew]

Eris take notes

[worthy rose]

ice cream furniture! Give me a mint chocolate chip slide stool! Give me Neapolitan bed!

[carmine relic]

You really not gonna have the ice cream sandwich bed instead?

[heavy dew]

Make sure it doesnt rotate with you either so you can get a side view where it goes absolutely invisible

[worthy rose]

that's too obvious

gun furniture! Everything is a gun! Dont ask!

[tulip wagon]

I obviously need zombie turtle furniture.

[remote latch]

Bat cave style

[carmine relic]

Man, we're suddenly quite lively now that Eris gave us ideas

[surreal crest]

I'd like a set that says "yo, we stole it from Addams Family

[worthy rose]

we are a herd of ducks! Just need direction!

[tulip wagon]

I will be Palia's Batman. This has been decided. I just need a basement so I can have an underground superhero hideout.

[surreal crest]

consider joining the great, the only POND PATROL!

[tulip wagon]

Will you be Palia's Justice League?

[heavy dew]

BERRY ALLEN, FASTEST CHERRY ALIVE!

[surreal crest]

well we are more of police force I guess
🕵️‍♂️

[carmine relic]

Chappa/chu themed furniture is a must,I bet.

[tulip wagon]

I look forward to cooperating with you then, though I will not be bound by your laws.

[slate delta]

when is expected release date?

[worthy rose]

RIGHT NOW

[deep frigate]

less than 3 years 🙂

[worthy rose]

well between that and 3 years

[slate delta]

thank you :3

[carmine relic]

Why does 3 years feel so far away

[deep frigate]

well it's less than 3 years, does that help?

[worthy rose]

it's so soon. Most of us have probably lived at least 2x 3 years

[tulip wagon]

Much less than three years.
I like to focus on the much.

[wind ibex]

I'm hoping for a holiday 2023 release, But I'm a bit odd.

[mellow verge]

Hmm if you look at it one way, I've waited over three decades for Palia

What's three years?

[slate delta]

so in total will take 6 years to develop

[carmine relic]

I cant believe a random Google Article led me to here

[mellow verge]

I saw it on kiratv and yeah.. Such chaos that first weekend

Ogs know

[carmine relic]

Aye, I do! Too bad I can't remember who was and wasn't there.

[wind ibex]

I was led here by looking for twitter accounts to bug with my revive Wildstar petition. Found a tweet referring Palia to the Wildstar "Housing Gang"

[slate delta]

I miss wildstar soooo much ;;

[mellow verge]

Never got to play it

[tulip wagon]

I miss Palia...

[deep frigate]

my husband sent me the palia tweet of the trailer on release day, and i was like omggggg.

[remote latch]

Cos we are waiting for it… a waited Palia release never arrives

[carmine relic]

I just went and looked back. Oh god it's so weird seeing actual photos posted in chat!

[tulip wagon]

I stumbled in here through the servant's entrance because I was being chased by a pack of woofs.

[faint dawn]

[remote latch]

You will be reunited again

[tulip wagon]

And my new friends will be there with me.

[carmine relic]

But what if a single server can't hold all my friends?!

[heavy dew]

We'll riot

[arctic onyx]

Riot games

[remote latch]

The game will keep hopping you or your friends between servers to keep the algorithm monster happy before it just explodes through over work

[carmine relic]

I do wonder what'd happen if it has to handle somebody who's a friend of all.

[heavy dew]

I mean I have all the artsies and more to fit into one server

[arctic onyx]

There is probably a cap to friend count

[remote latch]

Yep I tried thinking up how they could do it but every instance amounts to too much

[tulip wagon]

We'll Riot, and then we will hold you. If you're lucky we'll swaddle you in a Chapaa fur blankie.

[mellow verge]

I think most mmos allow about 100 friends

[carmine relic]

Ok, 101 friends it is

And I ain't going anywhere near chappa fur! Probably full of dirt and mud particles... and fleas.

[tulip wagon]

I told you I'm not wearing the Dalmatian suit...

[carmine relic]

Okay, 102.

[mellow verge]

Hmm that's also a movie

[heavy dew]

Welcome to friends 101

[carmine relic]

...103?

[mellow verge]

I definitely hope there's holiday furniture, but not campy stuff, something more serious

[tulip wagon]

Cozy home for the holidays type stuff. A nice fireplace. Maybe a roasted goose, cause that's the only purpose for a goose to exist.

[remote latch]

Guard geese ?

[carmine relic]

Screw it, let's just skip to 1,000.

[worthy rose]

I hate them. I lost 7 games in a row of urf last night

[mellow verge]

Hmm wonder if you can join more than one neighborhood. If we can have alts or what not.

I love ESO and the ability to have 5 guilds per account (the guilds are account wide)

[tulip wagon]

They're terrible employees. Always honking about what they want instead of working. Flying off and disappearing for months without submitting a leave request.

[carmine relic]

Whoa, Offal is spooky now!

[tulip wagon]

Ghost or pumpkin?

[carmine relic]

Pumpkin ghost

[tulip wagon]

Complex.

I am determined not to cover up too much of my pfp because I'm trying to be consistent but still flexible

[carmine relic]

I'd've put a wizard hat on my last profile pic but I can't draw. It already did have a tiny edit but nobody noticed

[tulip wagon]

I just doodles on top of mine with my phone. I wanted to stand in solidarity with my Palia Pals.

[carmine relic]

Maybe I can speedrun and re-draw my old PFP. Hm.

[tulip wagon]

Will there be sparkles? Lots of wizard have sparkles that come from their fingers.

[carmine relic]

How else are people gonna know what kinda spell you're casting before it flies outta your hands/fingers?

I'm not the dumb kind that outwardly scream Latin for "super hyper fire beam" to their enemies.

[remote latch]

tries to figure out Latin for such phrase

Inflamare

[surreal crest]

sounds legit
INFLAMARE!

[tulip wagon]

Kaboomalumos!

[surreal crest]

that's from Bombonicon tho

[tulip wagon]

[carmine relic]

Trying to think of everything in the photo that isn't the bowl.

[hasty crescent]

those eggs

[remote latch]

Sheesh just looked it up for real Latin is boring fireball in Latin is augue. Harry potters Inflamare is definitely more Latin like for flaming fire spell rofl. Inflamare is Latin for inflame so kinda accurate usage

[tulip wagon]

Want!

Want ramen now please!

[mellow verge]

Mmm that looks yummy

Time for some shin ramyun

[carmine relic]

"You wanna augue?"
"No I don't wanna argue-"

[surreal crest]

FOOD

[remote latch]

Ah that’s why the talk about ramen rofl

[carmine relic]

Time to try and properly be Halloween-y

[surreal crest]

[granite crater]

Just wanted to check out my new colour 😂

[whole geode]

I really love the art direction... it's nice, simple, cute and I can't seem to get the money I throw at the screen to make any difference though. 😦

[chilly locust]

God I hope the cooking mechanics require effort to completee

[mint steppe]

I haven't been here in awhile but I gotta say... Palia is lookin' better and better all the time!

[surreal crest]

OMG I MISSED YOU!

[mint steppe]

I feel so loved! ;-; ❤️

[surreal crest]

[surreal crest]

[mint steppe]

Ah, Berry doing excellent art work as always. 🙂

[surreal crest]

aye
so, wassup?

[kindred sable]

the ramen got meet

[heavy dew]

It's a good reason for people to meet up

[heavy dew]

I mean I can do it but it'd need to be submitted as a Palia custom emote to use in this channel specifically since we don't have other server ones

[surreal crest]

is that a problem? :O

[pliant frost]

Rameeeen 🍜

And BTW good evening lol

[pallid igloo]

I don't know about everyone else, but I think "Rameeeen" is a very acceptable greeting 😤

[heavy dew]

I concur!

[pliant frost]

agreed

[deep frigate]

not gonna lie I think I am going to go make ramen right now. won't look as lovely as the palian ramen though

[tulip wagon]

RamenOffal

[pallid igloo]

gasp! The plan to inspire people to have a ramen-y weekend worked!

[pliant frost]

I already had dinner, but now I want some 🍜

[deep frigate]

it is 100% because of you, I was planning on a quesadilla before you posted that pic 🍜

[tulip wagon]

Join me and ramenise your pfps

[surreal crest]

gasps Overseer is here! Clean your desks! Quickly!

[pallid igloo]

Does that mean I have to clean my desk?

[deep frigate]

swipes everything off my desk with one arm, leaving a pile of stuff on the floor

[surreal crest]

psst I meant you...

[tulip wagon]

I will clean your desk regularly if you keep feeding us food pics.

[pallid igloo]

No deal! I'll feed you food pics anyway

[remote latch]

hi Amelia

[heavy dew]

Technically no? But then what's stopping any non Palia themed emotes from being requested and added? That's all I'm thinking atm xD

[pallid igloo]

XRYSTAL HIIIIII!

[worthy rose]

it's amelia!

[pallid igloo]

The alternate nish of the underground dimension!!

[worthy rose]

I got turned upside down!

[deep frigate]

nish is just upside down, it is my fault

[surreal crest]

I had a beer Berry, I gotta be honest, I don't understand what you are trying to say but if this idea takes too much effort just don't do it, I don't want you to stress over this
thaaank you anyways . 3 .

[pallid igloo]

Spooky kitties must be responsible with their power

[deep frigate]

it was a whole thing

[surreal crest]

hey can some1 ping me? I have a weird issue with sound

[pallid igloo]

I think LB is conservative with the emojis because I've been very strict about what emojis to add 😅 But you can always hit me up for emojification Mystic!

[worthy rose]

@surreal crest

[heavy dew]

I just meant in general as well if I do a custom emote for 1 person I can't say no next time someone asks

[surreal crest]

thankk you

[heavy dew]

And I also can't promise it'll be added because technically I'm just a middleman

[surreal crest]

well you can, but I totally understand!

[deep frigate]

okay, I am leaving. to make ramen.

[pallid igloo]

If you manage to, I'd love to see pictures!

[remote latch]

:AuniExcite: >> sniffles still not added

[surreal crest]

enjoy your ramenn

[pallid igloo]

(Manage to get pictures before eating the ramen, I'm positive you'll manage making it 😅 )

[pallid igloo]

I AM THROTTLING THE EMOJIS 😭

[remote latch]

I forgive you then 🙂

[deep frigate]

I'll post a pic in the food channel when I am done 🙂

[heavy dew]

How does one make the water boil? I can't rub my hands together fast enough to light the fire

[pallid igloo]

There must be some youtube videos for that 🤔

[surreal crest]

you build a machine that hits the pot so many times it makes the water inside boil

someone on yt cooked chicken like that or steak, I don't remember

[worthy rose]

chicken

[remote latch]

this might work .. if I got hit many times I'm sure my blood will boil rofl

[pallid igloo]

I must fly, but it was nice chatting with everyone! Please have a nice rameny weekend, either literally or in spirit 🍜

[worthy rose]

in a bag

[whole geode]

I was eggstatic to see the new art. 🙂

[heavy dew]

enjoy your weekend Amelia!

[surreal crest]

see you next week, Overseer!
huh, that went well

[heavy dew]

You're in the clear still Chair, they have no idea

[surreal crest]

they'll never have

[tulip wagon]

I'll never tell.

[surreal crest]

good good, now back to Pond Patrol cases!

[tranquil cosmos]

Nish trapped in the upside down

[heavy dew]

Time to ponder

[surreal crest]

yeah, we'll get to that soon and bring nish back

[tulip wagon]

returns to the secret underground lair that has yet to be named to fight crime with sound detective work

[remote latch]

na na na na na na na na Off----al

[tulip wagon]

I need a good name for my lair.

[remote latch]

Offal's Hovel ?

[tulip wagon]

I feel like it should be punny

The Meat Locker?

[remote latch]

not great pun wise or sound wise .. but .. Awful Hair ... Offal Lair ( bad idea )

[tulip wagon]

You don't like my hair????

[heavy dew]

Poor poor Offal

[remote latch]

no no no rofl

and this is why I don't try to be punny

[tulip wagon]

[remote latch]

I'm still thinking 🙂 that was all I could come up with 🙂

[tulip wagon]

You're still my favourite PNN reporter.

[remote latch]

wait I'm the only PNN reporter 😛

[surreal crest]

chair is gonna hug his gf now and go to sleep
have a good night everyone, till tomorrow!

[heavy dew]

There's not an Offal lot of different spins on your name

[tulip wagon]

This seems lile an urgent staffing issue. You need to hire more reporters so you can be the anchor.

[remote latch]

maybe when there is more news and a need for people on location 🙂

[heavy dew]

My mother says I'm her favorite son
not only am I her only son, I'm her only child

[tulip wagon]

As a fighter of crime I will require anonymity but I will occasionally feed you exclusive information if you promise not to reveal your source.

[carmine relic]

Ok I miss anything?

[heavy dew]

Idk did you miss me?

[carmine relic]

Yes

[mellow verge]

Hmm
Ramen and furniture talk?

[carmine relic]

I definitely saw the ramen and furniture talk

[tulip wagon]

Tell me Gambit... do wizards like ramen?

[mellow verge]

That's about it really

[carmine relic]

Some do, yeah.

[mellow verge]

Same with witches

[tulip wagon]

I have put my spooky aside to worship the ramen.

[mellow verge]

Haha

[remote latch]

Meat Locker sounds great come to think of it 🙂

[tulip wagon]

Really?

[remote latch]

yep very punny 🙂

[tulip wagon]

Well that seals the deal then! My secret lair is officially The Meat Locker!

[deep frigate]

i have returned with my ramen (pic in #🍜│food-and-noms ) 🍜

[carmine relic]

We need spooky ramen.

[tulip wagon]

Ramooky?

[deep frigate]

you can pretend that mine is haunted

[mellow verge]

Black ink ramen?

[faint dawn]

🍜

[tulip wagon]

🦇

Hi Wippit!

[marble hedge]

Ramen in a mannequin's torso, so it looks like you're pulling out intestines. Bonus points if it's a golem instead of a mannequin. Look, Einar's innards!

[tulip wagon]

You have just revealed yourself to be a spooky genius!

[carmine relic]

Einards*

[marble hedge]

After reading my previous message out loud, I have been told I'm wrong.

[tulip wagon]

🪱

[carmine relic]

I'ma go play with rockets.

[maiden adder]

@pallid igloo quick question. What's that leaf in the ramen?

[pallid igloo]

That's a great question, I'm not sure! Let me ask - I did a quick scrub to see what sort of greens go in ramen, and this looks close- place your bets!

(Pulled from this blog https://www.apexsk.com/blogs/japan-lifestyle/ramen-toppings-a-brief-introduction-about-30-different-kinds)

[remote latch]

hmm could be .. I was thinking some Palian herb yet to be revealed

[pallid igloo]

This answer is much more mystical and tantalizing

[maiden adder]

Xd

[marble hedge]

Well shut my mouth, canola leaves are edible

[serene stratus]

That ramen looks detailed enough to get me craving a bowl 🍜

[maiden adder]

Ye same

[pallid igloo]

We're getting word that it may be a shiso leaf 📰

[deep frigate]

i craved it enough that i made some

[wise anvil]

They even got the chashu in there 😩

[remote latch]

Shiso Leaf Image : https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shiso#/media/File:Beefsteak_plant_(21228989453).jpg

[marble hedge]

Known as “perilla leaf” in English, the herb “has a scent reminiscent of cinnamon and cloves,”

You may use one or all the ingredients in your mystery box, but you dish must feature shiso leaf.

[mental garden]

Hi everyone! I just filled out the form for Beta testing; Super excited to see where this game goes! It looks wonderful~. I hope you all are having a great day (or a quiet night!)

For the lurkers out there and any newcomers. Welcome to Palia : Chapaa/Chu We Want You. Scavenge information in the channels and dig through the community compiled faq documents pinned to this channel while you wait to go home. The one compiled by Vlad contains most if not all of the dev's left overs provided in the first week or two of this server opening and currently resides in the archived #❓│old-team-answers-pre-alpha channel. The one compiled by Rin is an overview and contains more up to date information gathered from the information available in #❓│old-team-answers-alpha , #❔│game-faqs and #🌠│official-art channels. Consuming these documents will bring you up to what we know about Palia : The Game so far, along with the recently thrown out blog on the Palia site accessed via the #📢│palia-news channel or the bottom of the Palia site itself. You could even rustle up some ideas before you go home and discard them in the #game-suggestions channel. But, if you haven't gone home yet then make sure you sign up for an invite on the site and fill in the surveys. Again, welcome and we hope you enjoy waiting with us .

[mellow verge]

If canola plants make the oil, then I’d think they would be edible

Perilla leaves are used by Koreans and Japanese quite often from what I’ve seen

[pearl ore]

Have you ever wondered how many babies it takes to get one bottle of baby oil?

[mellow verge]

[fringe minnow]

Boo, it's the ghost of old fenix ~

[heavy dew]

Ah the prodigal bird returns from the ashes

[remote latch]

[heavy dew]

I couldn't fit more anecdotes

[remote latch]

I sure hope Busco's 497 comments in #❓│old-team-answers-pre-alpha are heavily filled with joke responses rofl

rofl I like this comment Jenkins — 06/05/2021 Q: will be fantasy creatures to hunt?? besides boars, deer, something like a dragon or things like that ?? [S6] BuscoBear — 06/05/2021 We don't even have 'boars' or 'deer'

[faint dawn]

Yeah it's gotta be non-existant animals.. like a puma (Bonus points for anyone getting the refrence)

[remote latch]

The only thing I can imagine that meaning is that they are more commonly known as cougars.

[faint dawn]

Its a 2008 internet thing.. xD

[remote latch]

obviously not the areas I was into rofl

[faint dawn]

I'd love a cat mix type animal

in palia, maybe give it a turtle shell

Like a Caturtle

[remote latch]

Well they mixed cats with humanoids .. - Zeki .. so whos to say they don't mix cats with something else 🙂

[faint dawn]

Oh yeah

The internet always loves more cats

[remote latch]

cats rule the world after all 🙂

Although our squirrels have got us trained rofl

[heavy dew]

This is all I think about when people say anything <insert real thing here>

Will there be chickens, deer, <insert any ingredient name>, no, non of it, it's all made up xD

[remote latch]

Another funny one Psudowoodo — 06/05/2021 what will the Pre-alpha be on? its own launcher type thing [S6] BuscoBear — 06/05/2021 Something newer than a floppy

[heavy dew]

I love answers that say nothing, it's my favorite way to answer questions

[remote latch]

And this one made several people laugh Draganthyr — 06/05/2021 ok for taking screenshoot, dozen of. give me keyyyyyyy [S6] BuscoBear — 06/05/2021 It is bound to J i think So calmly done rofl

[heavy dew]

I think Busco is up there in spirit animals for me along with Bob Ross, Ron Swanson and Long the wish dragon

[bright forge]

Good night guys . See you tomorrow and you all.

[pliant frost]

Good Niiiight

[quick dove]

I think I still have a floppy drive around

if only that was a requirement for pre-alpha at the time

[abstract rover]

confirmed ramen in palia
hype

[cinder temple]

Consider it part of Paltober (Palian Inktober). The prompt list will be out by the end of the month for those interested.

[remote latch]

I thought you might do something like that 🙂

[cinder temple]

You can thank @night drum for requesting it, but it seems a number of other people started hopping up and down about it too.

[remote latch]

I didn't know what it was at first, had to look it up but I had an idea as writers have something similar in November.

[cinder temple]

Yeah! It'll be optional like all the other art channel challenges, but some people get really into art events like that, almost like a holiday of their own.

[remote latch]

I can imagine

[carmine relic]

I return from the Kerbal Crap! Surprisingly, nobody died!

[fallow pagoda]

afternoon all hows every1 doing?

[regal swallow]

Wonderful! Wholesome! and very calming.

[carmine relic]

Good ramen yall!

[warm plover]

[carmine relic]

Hi Hungy

I'm Gambit

[heavy spire]

Hi new person here who just saw the game trailer and info video like yesterday. Is there a releasedate? Did I miss a channel of game info maybe? XD thanks

[carmine relic]

It's way, way later. Like, 2-3 years later

[brave thorn]

Hello BlakeFate, and welcome to the Palia discord community. Right now, there is no specific release date. The closest hint that we have received is from [S6]WhoaNonstop who mentions...

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

Right now the pre-alpha testing phase ended not too long ago, and you can learn more about that experience in Palia's latest blog post at https://palia.com/home/blog-updates/

[potent loom]

I dont like ramen

[potent loom]

I love it

[heavy spire]

Ahh okay thank you 😊

I wasn't paying attention when I signed up for the newsletter for palia but there was a survey that I took was it for beta testing or just a general survey? Cuz I got confused when it said it would call back xD?

[brave thorn]

If you mean the email form right at the top of palia.com, that is for getting signed up for potential future tests (Alpha, Beta, etc.). The survey also applies to that.

[heavy spire]

Ah I see alright xD ig I signed up for that then xD thank you again

[brave thorn]

No problem, and just to set expecations, right now it seems we don't know when any future tests will come around. We are however getting weekly updates such as sneak peaks, concept art, and more. For example, we were teased what a bowl of ramen will look like in the game in the #🌠│official-art section.

If you would like to be pinged for these updates, be sure to head for #📃│server-directory, and click the reaction tags to enable Villager Votes (currently on hiatus right now) and Art Connoisseur.

[warm plover]

the blogpost does say there would be more tests Soon(TM) but, to be honest, is a meme so it probably doesn't really mean anything

[cinder temple]

I dunno man, I just challenge people to draw Palia stuff while we wait. Anything on top of that has just been one big pleasant surprise.

[brave thorn]

Well to quote the Blizzard Entertainment definition of Soon TM:

I believe Singularity 6 applies similar terms to their Soon TM... 🤣

[warm plover]

i mean amelia straight up wrote SoonTM rather than Soon so it's even more of a meme than usual
