Like i really want to be a farmer that does everything from animal husbandry to apiaries, but when a game gives me an option to process meat from my animals, i just cannot do that to my farm friends
I saw a movie once where someone took a slice of meat out of a cow without killing it
from them I still think it has to be smth doable but iāve never cared to look up if it is or not
edit; the movie was the Jungle Book Live Action
I actually feel like that in real life .. if we ever get our own chickens to get eggs .. we'd have to work an agreement with a local butcher to swap chicken for pre cut meat .. we wouldn't be able to kill them ourselves
I would like to avoid that type of husbandry altogether, if the exchange animal-farmer isnāt completely safe for the animal Iām not interested
things like goats, cows, chicken, whatever where you care for them and in exchange you can get a renewable product do attract me, but not other things like meat processing or selling
Monster Hunter 3 on ds had a mechanic like that.
Good times just cutting some leather or meat out, animal gets up and runs away as if nothing happened. 
steak sounds good
Isn't this just artificially grown meats?
(we were talking abt strictly getting the meat out without killing, i was gonna mention that too)
which I do want in Palia!!
Welcome to Reth's Artificial Meat Lab
I mean I know they artificially make organs but meat for consuming???
yup
There is already artificial meat for consumption, yes
Maybe .. what they could do .. is have some sort of timed mechanic *** off to suggestions ***
Ahh
There's also genetically modified fruits etc etc etc
Lab grown meat isnāt allowed for consumption everywhere tho, and it also isnāt industrially made thatās why it isnāt that common
yet
To be fair it probably won't be needed with the plant based industry taking leaps forward constantly
The day they can make a pizza plant will be the day I turn vegan
as long as it tastes like steak, idc if itās made out of rocks or veggies
I mean I think it's an interesting discussion but I think the labels are harming it. There's no need to be one or the other, you don't have to be completely vegan to save the planet and what not etc etc
The option isn't steak or lettuce forever
I always see it as
Veganism is a moral value not a moral obligation
I think, I used a very specific word that I canāt remember now 
I mean morals aren't set in stone, they change as soon as the narrative does, hence all the moral tests you can take. They're not a good guideline in any situation
Hey so i know bug catching is an aspect that's gonna be in Palia, but is there also something like doing terrariums to keep those bugs in? Or aquariums for fish?
not that we know of
We just don't know 
fingers crossed then
I hope that I can wear a giant hat full of bees
I want a wall of ants!
Or that massive mushroom helmet from Elden Ring, foraging hat lets go
do you want to be Ponzu from Hunter x Hunter
I...I don't know?
She's a character with a bee hive shaped hat which bees live in
Then, yes
Beehat
Pancake hat
But where is the muffin hat?
Muffin Button
Muffin beret š
There is this suggestion regarding an aquarium - add a thumbs up to it to help the devs see the level of interest š - #game-suggestions message
Thanks! I'll do just that!
And this is Arco's terrarium suggestion - #game-suggestions message
An outdoor pond would be cool too.
I've had an accidental indoor pond before
my suggestion is the best
is just: āTerrariums, byeā
Straight to the point
I rate it 10/10
Berry
I know I mentioned aviary's yesterday but dont remember if I mentioned bird/wildlife watching. Like having a little book you fill out when you spot new wildlife.
Which one? We got lots of berries
THE berry. i miss him
I made a binoculars suggestion that included wildlife watching : #game-suggestions message and garnetgewel did a similar one #game-suggestions message
I've just reminded myself of the thing in Monster Hunter World where you could capture some of the wildlife and then decorate your house with them
like the Wiggler pots
Upvoted!
You mean Jocat worms?

You know, I've been looking. Has there been any sort of answer release about what there is to do on the exploration side of things with friends when you go out of the village?
Hi
They've talked about exploring being a part of the game, and because of the climbing skill and all the art if ruins I'm thinking there will be some nice exploration options.
I hope they'll have good features and lore stuff to find for explorers tho. That's probably what I'll focus on first
They havenāt gone into great detail on what you can do but with the great human mystery to solve hereās hoping there is plenty of exploration to solve that mystery
Hey, Dewey, stop with all the decimals!

@heavy dew Let me guess, THIS Berry?
Huh who what where
csr here misses you 
The berries are invading!
hi berry i miss u
Berry isnāt real yāall imagining them
But I brought some for snack time
Is this some hallucination coming from a memory Berry'd in my subconscious?
The human mystery is definitely something I think about, but I'm also thinking on an exploration level. I do know that the only real 'combat' thing is hunting after reading. Do they plan on having a profession system then if that's the case?
They have said there is a level up for hunting - [S6] BuscoBear ā 06/04/2021 Definitely no 'magic' skill to level up like 'hunting' atm
and .. hunting is classed as gathering
yes but gathering takes many forms, like hunting```
No idea specifically on set professions, but crafting and resource gathering will of course be huge parts of the game. They said there will be "plenty of bars to fill" as well as how good you are at something will determine how good the product you get is. E.g. a lvl 1 and lvl 30 cook making the same dish will have the lvl 30 cook coming out with the better product
If hunting is classed as gathering, I wonder if we'll be stripping animals for parts.
thatās-
That makes a lot of sense. I'm aware this is an MMO. And there's to be activities with other players. But I'm also think on the exploration level of how others could help eachother. Like, just a ruins as a basic example. It might be a good idea to have a buddy that can decipher texts or meanings, maybe able to help find stuff. Maybe a miner that could unblock paths (if mining is it's own profession.)
suggestion writing intensifies
Hey if you're going to do it, best to use every bit right?
that would be really cool ... just in case they haven't thought of that ... add it to #game-suggestions š
I approve deciphering texts!
I will, it may be a few hours though as I'm about to get off lunch for work. Give me time and I'll type it in Word with a more detailed explanation. I'll be home in like, 4 hours
I wonder if I'll get to make a fancy headdress out of a deer or something.
Yooo I'd love it if you ACTUALLY decipher stuff! They could have a really simple code with the cipher
š
I would prefer if deciphering texts instead of being a level that is ālvl 7 can decipher this but lvl 2 canātā it was actually you having to think how to decipher smth
Bits and pieces. A lower level may be able to get part of it. Higher ranks can get more
deciphering could be a puzzle game type thing you can do 
That to
But what iām saying is I donāt want it to be level restricted, i want me as the player to be able to decipher it all bc Iām a genius!
What if they do it like how you learn Al Bhed in FFX?
i have no idea how that works?
I think they mentions having dungeon like content but no idea on how it would play out. Having people if certain skills would be really cool like you said, and also just puzzles!
It would be cool if it was kinda randomized on what you needed each time. So maybe an explorer could go in ahead of time, scout out a little to see what's needed, and then bring the people and tools necessary next time!
yeah I like the idea of real puzzles that test your real brain .. but can understand it might alienate some people that might want to delve into that mystery but can't do the puzzles .... like my brother having to call me in to solve his puzzles in the game he plays cos he's useless at them. So maybe if they did do that .. they have an option for people that aren't comfortable with actual brain work
Simple alphabetical letter swapping for the language, but I liked that you found texts as you played through the game that served as teaching you the translation, so if a character spoke Al Bhed you got captions that were only translated with however many letters you knew so far.
so similar to No Manās Sky, I like this
I liked it because I actually learnt the language irl. By the back half of the game I barely needed to read the translation anymore.
I knew someone in high school that could speak Al Bhed lol
My sister and I used to use it to talk about private things in front of the rest of the family!
Lm@o that's great. I remember that guy going around and telling everyone their Al Bhed name
Cant remember what mine was
I should send my sister a message in Al Bhed and make her laugh!
It's been years since we've used it!
I would love to see Palia put something similar in the game. It really was fun!
100% do it
Gotta go back into work. I'll type up something when I get back. Stay safe
Palian? Majiri? what would it be?
Palatin
If it's Palian
Would the study of the language be
Paliantology
I'll see myself out
why does Palatin sound familiar??
Lmao I couldn't help myself
Totally original name, I promise. Hides Latin under the carpet
it sounds like smth out of LOTR tbh
Tin Tin but he's a paladin main
Oh see, I wouldn't know, I never really emersed myself in LOTR
I'd be very down with a new language tbh
Though it might require taking on a linguistic specialist, it's not necessarily impossible
It's not too terribly difficult I'd imagine. I'd love to explain more, but it's time to deliver stuff and I can't text and drive at the same time unfortunately. See y'all later!
See ya, drive safe!
i means they could do like Animal Crossing did, which is just every letter of a word, changed order, and high pitched
like?
The creator of the language (or rather, one of) confessed that it's actually a Cipher
So it probably looks a bit odd or silly to anyone with actual linguistics knowledge, but can still be appreciated for the effort, at least.
To complete this, I was thinking of the palantĆr, an Artefact on Middle Earth
googling Dragon Age Elvish intensifies
It's cited as number 126 on the fanwiki
oh
is very much like WoWās Darnassian
O I never got into WoW
But yeah, a language in Palia that's different from...common, I guess it'd be? Would be great
Genshin has different languages, too, with Liyue having its own (at least, it's been shown, not really discussed) written language separate from the Common all over Teyvat, so it's surmised all other nations have their own unique styles
WoWās languages are not as in depth, but the general sound of it is similar to DAās Elvish
Ooo interesting
That's pretty cool. I like language a lot, was going to be the career I'd choose as a translator. So I appreciate it when it's posted in games
Iām also a big fan of languages, as a hobby lol
Fair! Hobby is also good
But if it's not incorporated in Palia then no sweat off my back, it'd just be a cool thing to see
Since humans have disappeared for some time I would assume at least smth relating to the ālost human languageā would be talked of at some moment on the story 
For the linguists amongst you ... Track this conversation back
#š¬āpalia-discussions message
The markings mean more than just pretty symbols :shushing_face:```
Language is interesting. A linquist doesn't necessarily create languages. They study their history and evolution through the years such as how English has evolved in the past 20 alone
I guess we shouldn't /rune/ the surprise?
Oooo interesting
I take a shot everytime someone in this server makes a pun
And oh when I mentioned linguistic specialist, I only meant for the definition of language professional, basically, not strictly a linguist
Though now that I think about it, there might also have to be a team involved, of course, but more than one trained in language structure
This sounds like a plot to decrease the server population to raise the chance of getting into the next test.

well that wouldnāt work bc the alphas arenāt given to people in the server but rather people signed for it
One day, I'll get into the alpha and understand why people want to scream about its beauty
One day.....
Same
yes it was all amazing ... the ????? was great, and the ????? was beautiful and doing ???? was fun , and watching ????? was fascinating, and talking to ???? was enlightening 
don't ask me what the ???? are cos I can't recall what I was thinking off at that precise moment 
You tryin to make us cry?
Our Wikibot twisting the knife with cheerful enthusiasm ā¤
of course not š I'm crossing my fingers, toes, eyes, and tongue that alot more get in next time and especially those that have been here cheering the team on š
I know you're on our side!
How do you cross your tongue.....
Has to be forked.
First you need to start by splitting it
whispers I'll try and see if I can convince Einar to open the back door again ... it might cost you a few shiny pebbles though 
you've never crossed your tongue .. mindblown
Dang, forked tongue would be awesome but i am not a brave enough soul
And ooooo I'm willing to fork over ALL the shiny pebbles!
But yes, deciphering and tracing back are two completely different things. A linguist may be able to translate old English to modern, but they won't be able to translate a mysterious old/dead language to todays english. You're looking more into historian or scholar territory
Would you settle for phosphorescent geodes?
Etymologist?
Yes! Etymologist would be essential
It's like how, to look at a bit of how history changed with the English language, you can look to Frisian iirc?
yeah, I like looking into how language changed over time .. kinda like Language DNA, slight changes that overtime resulting in something quite different .. it's fascinating to see how some languages kept the pictographic format whilst others grew into individual lettering and spread out from there.
This is why regional colloquialisms fascinate me.
That's a good one, yes
But making a language is something anyone can do. What makes it a good language or can be passable to another person? That depends on who's studying it. The creators of a language is created by the civilization or collection of entities that need it so communication is clear. It's a thing that comes natural and smooth.
English is dubbed the hardest language to learn because it's not very smooth, it's extremely slow and a lot of words have the same meaning. A conversation in 10 minutes in English could possibly be had in half the time of a different language
You ever see that video of what english sounds like to non-english speakers?
But English is also the best language to describe something
German is very good at doing that as well
No but send it to me in DM. I'm interested
highly extremely disagree
You're probably correct. I'm just not familiar with other languages myself and heard this from other sources. I could be extremely incorrect
The only thing I find english does better than other languages is that you can transform practically any noun into a verb
Although I am interested in what you think is. I'm always open to learn more of different perspectives and learning something
German is a great bet as Patel mentioned, but I canāt really say a definite one.
hii everyone!! ive got a quick offtopic question: does anyone know how to join the list for alpha testing? ive only seen a survey for wave 1 but im way too late for that for sure and i dont think itād still be open
ohhh that makes sense thank you!!
and dw the ones that are off topic is us 
survey for wave 1? well if you already signed you donāt need to again
yea the thing is i havent signed for that one, i wasnt active here on the server when it was posted so i lost my chance, hence why i was asking
That special survey for pre-alpha was only for that purpose. For any testing after that .. just sign up on the site and do the short survey that follows that sign up
I checked that before alpha invites were announced just in case people needed to fill it in for Alpha as well but was told it wasn't a requirement now
thank you!!!
(oh that was the pre alpha survey that people could sign up for in discord, i wasnāt here for that so i didnāt know sorry
)
So you dont need to sign up again if you did for pre Alpha right?
Just to make 100% sure 
nope .. once you've signed up you're on the waiting list
Xrystallll...? Are shiny pebbles gonna be the currencyyyy?
hmmmmmmmm?~
yes 
No idea .. but Einar thinks pebbles make nice gifts - Einar Info Card : #š āofficial-art message
I hope not... I'm already having to spend a couple hundred hours collecting bicolor gemstones. >.>
Hm good to know
I'm done with rocks!
Paliadollars 
in all truths, Palia is a communist regime where all concept of capital is been censored from the public and the only form of currency is the workerās hard labor to the peopleās republic of Kilima
okay but real talk: they're so useful but why we need so many for the wings š
What game are you two playing that has bicolor gemstones?
I heard someone mention rocks and gemstones. I would love a way to display those in game some day
make jewelry outta em *w *
Ffxiv, newer currency from fates that if you farm up for a few cheap goodies and mats or save up A TON for a mount ir dark angel wings
oh. iunno I dont like that it says free to play then tells you you gotta pay full price of 20 just to do everything else...and get subscription for marketplace e-e
jewellery is a luxury, there is no place for luxury in the peopleās republic of kilima
sorry i got way too in character 
You can alternatively buy it from the market board but that would be almost all my money. I need that for housing next week!
Toe rings in Palia?
yeah dude whatever happened to toe rings...
#MakeToeRingsGreatAgain
But it can be like gifting something we made to an NPC to show our affection? Sounds neat to me, to make something with my own hands and see their reaction 
I would love to craft piercings ngl 
I agree with Lyssy here; it'd be like Harvest Moon in that sense. In those games, jewelry could be sold for a profit, but it could also be gifted for a decent boost if a given NPC liked the jewelry item in question.
Never give a dress or brooch to the game's tomboy.
Even if a dress isn't strictly jewelry, it was counted in the same category of gift, aesthetics.
I would love it if we could either gift it or wear it as an object
it could have both tags and do both things
If they add cool jewelry and we can't wear it, then what's the point ;v;
I wouldn't wear a dress but I still collect jewelry, polished or not, as a tomboy
like dang who says we can't use one specific object as two kinds of action based boolean logic hm
if statements!
switch case š
Mhm mhm
camel case >w>
I don't know all the proper terms but I tend to just mimic the variable naming pattern of whatever codebase I'm working in.
Recently I've worked WithVariablesLikeThis, variablesLikeThis, and variables_like_this each.
yeah I just got into programming I'm learning like stuff such as stack overflow: [:]
and .upper() append which is like uppercase while .lower() is lowercase with a variable before the .
Only if the variable is a string.
well...yes
Languages also like to change what the function is called, or how to use it ;v;
do you know a set of numeric datatype integers that have upper and lower case? lol
Off the top? No. Would I be surprised? Also no.
lol
I wonder if Palia will have writable items or anything, like Minecraft books...
OOF
rofl the wonders of palia-chat ..... palia languages > pebbles > jewellery > programming languages 
The gradual flow of conversation is beautiful, is it not?
ah, Xrystal, you missed a step!
jewelry > question of whether jewelry is wearable or giftable > why not both? > programming references > programming talk
...several steps.
rofl
That's a lot of steps o.o
xD
Reminds me of that one thing with a lot of steps
I started programming back around 2016 to write a dedicated calculator for my forum game. I still have all that python code, actually, saved up here.
It eventually led me to an engine called SRPG Studio, taught me some super cursed edition of JavaScript. That led me to RPG Maker for a while, though I use that less.
That led me to C++, and while learning C++, someone I was learning with told me about Palia.
So in a way, if I'd never started programming, I wouldn't be here in the first place.
Holy shish
one can only hope ... š¤ ... they have a librarian .. must be a library .. library has books ... must be able to read books .. and their last years hackathon was creating books Our goal was to create in-game books for our first game. Link: https://www.singularity6.com/blog/2021/3/30/hackathon-singularity-6s-yearly-tradition So .. maybe .. š¤ ... at some point ... š¤ .. we will get to pick up one of these books and read them 
Better story than mine, I learned bout this game through a corepunk official discord channel
was it 39 steps per chance ?
I just remember my days on Minecraft servers, writing away in those books
Sharing it with friends. It was a pvp/raiding server, so when our base got attacked one day, our attackers found my books and started reading them lol
I got really popular after that.
taking diplomacy to another level
I was a silly teenager and I don't hold that writing as particularly good - much less hopeful stuff. It was grim because my life wasn't in a good place. But I guess we were all more than a little damaged back then, since we all enjoyed it so much...
At the end of the day you write what speaks to you. And you read what speaks to you, too.
The best writing is usually from the heart š
^This.
That sounds amazing holy crap, that's a good story to tell! But I can imagine at the time, it was a little stressful having your base attacked and then your things rummaged through
I mean, again - pvp/raiding server. That was an intended part of the game lol.
Oh fair
Silly of me to keep my writing in the main base, instead of a hidden alcove somewhere.
I mean if it takes books to calm a storm I'm sure the storm would also give aspiration to the author
straightens up .... whispers Double Trouble is here .. we better behave 
But yeah, that's why I was asking/wondering about books to write in in Palia. I kind of miss those days.
i technically learned about this game when it was first mentioned by some friends who were big into stardew valley (which was how we met)
But I got into this game when another friend from my FFXIV Free Company server (who is also into stardew valley!) ended up getting into the alpha, played it, and then, knowing i was also into farming sims, told me to sign up for the next one
Why do I keep thinking of that one lady on the Palia trailer in t-pose
I shouldn't say "Screamed", that just sounds like it was so aggressive and mean whoops
wearing a toe ring and having a squishy jiggle shroom pet
I'll put some of my old writing tidbits in #š¬āoff-topic-chat. I don't think they quite fit anywhere else?
screamed with excitement you mean ? 
That fits better!
ye. I feel like arts-n-crafts is more for visual
Yeah I haven't seen you here before Rio, when did you join?
althought there iiiiis a channel for book nerds...
That's how I am when I see Whoa's timer hints for a special event .. he's done it twice so far but was fun tracking down the last ones 
I joined the 25th of last month iirc!
That was your intro day š
I view #šābook-nerds more as "books that are actually written, even if you wrote them" as opposed to "tidbits of writing", tbh
I must look back in the past in the intro channel to find your intro rio :)
Thought as much..darn.
i just saw it as any form of literature
I was a bit nervous because of the size of this server, since I was so used to the chaos of some similarly-sized servers. I'm very glad and grateful about the pace this server goes at.
saaaaame thats why i was abt 1 year here without saying anything lol
we get quiet days .. but .. woah does it get active on invite wave days 
Well I'm glad you spoke up Arco, even if you are on team Chappa
uh ohs conflict of the choops
Huh, looks like I need to re-react for that role set. I swear I had chosen one randomly. 
You guys needed a true rival and I took the place
Yes we demand only true rivals
I feel like both could be used interchangeably, just Chuu being the far more casual one
Like how there's dog and then there's doggo
you know, I don't think I've seen someone suggest that usage for the two names .. good catch š
no, Chapaa is the true name
Chuupuu
That's the wonderful thing about language evolving! :D
Chips
That's a good point. I like to see it as a fun bit of silly server lore that we can engage in.
omg Chips
I am for Chips
#TeamChip
^^^^ psst Amelia .. we need to add a new Chapaa/Chuu name option ^^^^
But seriously, the community coming up with such a cute nickname that's been recognized, I find fascinating and adorable
What if that's what the babies are called
another good thought š
It reminds me of how fox babies are called kits
Wtf, a chip is a hilariously cute name for a Chuu baby lmao
you're on a roll Rio .. now think about what you want Palia to be and add some suggestions in #game-suggestions 
omg
š
hoo boy that's responsibility that I'm scared to have
because my bias are vampires and elves and those seem to be coded in the primary race, it seems!
So everything I could ever want is already in the game 
so enhance on those thoughts š
Okay, put in the suggestion for the chapaa! chapaas? Chapii?
Chapaas
Chapaas
Thank you!
I'm confused, what do you mean coded in the primary race? But yeah I think having a name for baby Chuus/Chapaas is a good idea, You can throw it in suggestions and then the idea will be somebodies responsibility if you're concerned about it.
Hi, I'm new, what are chapaa/chuu?
welcome to the server Eve. 

this cuties
"Coded" is usually meant to refer to something with characters being "coded", or subtextually described, as a certain label
Most often "queer-coded" is used
It looks to me like the race that is prominent, design-wise, has taken characteristics from vampires and elves and mashed them together
Oh I hope they have fangs, that's my biggest hope
I haven't seen anyone teeth-grinning or open-mouthed but if they have fangs I will cry
Ohhh, those are chuuuuuu's š
This is the chapaa creature in Palia - https://twitter.com/playPalia/status/1403026673298067465/photo/1 - but the community had chuu as an alternative name
Hi Eve! Chapaa are the little doggy boar gnome things. Chuu was a name given to them by a user here before they had a proper name.
gnomes????
Iirc they took ideas from boars, squirrels, and beavers!
Awesome design btw.
I'm not sober, gnome is a funny word. Also that's very interesting Rio, I'll think on that.
I didn't get a vampirish tone to the elf like Majiri race myself, but Jel does look goth like or pale to the point of having an almost vampirish look
are you ever sober ? 
It was mostly the color of the skin that made me think that, since it's a bit like...undead, or supernatural, colors! But yeah, Jel is the one that I've studied the most (of course), and he does give me the vibe most of all.
If they have fangs, that seals the deal in my mind. :D
I do see why you would think of Vampires with their skin colour
I'm surprised that wasn't my first thought .. but I just assumed different colour elves like humans instead 
Well vampires are usually anemic colour tbh, this may sound extremely edgy, but I thought the colour tone was a vague way of making humans but subverting the problems of being human
I'm showing one of my friends the Palia announcement trailer, and he may be joining the server/sign up for the alpha. (I rewatched the trailer because I wasn't sure if anyone showed their teeth that wasn't human. Sadly, no.)

That's also a likely possibility! I could see that being the reason.
I got 2 friends here already, they are just ignoring the server
correction, 3
The cheeky buggers
I've technically got another friend who is in this server, as well! I don't want to out her, though, because idk if she talks. ;w;
Yeah alot of people don't talk .. or it would be very very very busy chat 
nvm since I cant tag them I assume they left the server š
Oh noooo ;A;
about that yes - and its cuuuute
I gave that one a backstory
Ah yeah all my chapaas have stories š they'll be having a chapter or two in my Chapaa Adventures story š
Charlie the chapaa that Auni trapped to have as a pet. Champagne who was a baby chapaa whose mother died and Kenyatta rescued the baby and is looking after it with the help of the stable boy. And Charisma is an adventurous chapaa who helps Jina uncover artifacts and ruins for her research. They all get parts in some of my artwork here with a little story that will get added into bigger story š
You mean 4 
I hope theres chappa and chuu quests
Same!! I hope there's quests around them, as well. And that artwork is adorable!
We have dadjoke because of Arco? Arco MVP confirmed.
I was saying that Arco and I are friends
yes you guys have DadJoke because of me, indeed

Now we know who to blame the next time we have puns or dadjokes around here /lh
Well time to go buy more vodka, hope you all well
have fun stay safe!
Lol reading the new dev's introduction I thought it was just a bot bc of the first "I'm a Machine Learning" I just thought they were an AI 
Hm instead of just diappearing I feel like when you need to harvest their meats there will be an animation and effect of where the cow just sorta poofs in smoke and you are left with chunks of hearty beef #game-suggestions message
And ducks! Ba-na-na-na
Isn't that how BotW and WindWaker works?
I have only ever played botw but yes I suppose. It's a funny.
really? so thats Once again another thing Genshin copied lol
ew Genshin..
š yeah genshin took a lot of things
Don't forget alot of other open world games lately with the casual genre appeal have ALSO copied botw
I still love it to an unreasonable degree tho
for instance, Palia also has windgliders
I feel no shame in this.
Honestly I feel like the legend of zelda team sorta paved the way open for new interesting ways to play games for once...
Genshin just...did it wrong......with gacha...
Yeah! Most definitely
Also I'm glad that weapon durability is something majority agreed to leave out lmao
Also Genshin's UI for cooking meals is nasty...and you can't meet people in an open space its like a single player game WHY would I buy characters in a single player game...explain
yea but Genshinās was just shameless
yea
Ngl, I think you could make a very interesting Souls game with the weapon durability if you increase drop rates, would be a fun mod
Wait has Palia said anything on there being weapon durability š° i'm really hoping they're leaving it out
letās go to #š®āother-games
I don't think there are even weapons
yaknow I feel like tools losing durability at a comfortable pace is necessary... cuz I like to need to gather more resources
Oh uh
I guess it'd be tool durability?
Yessss
Cuz like what is the point in choppin trees if ya not usin it for anythin
Hmmm I guess
But imo it could have crafting/gathering and tool durability set up separately much like how FFXIV has
Well you are getting wood for using it to craft or something right? Besides it being fun
*shrug *
wdym
Furniture and fences for farms I'd assume
I just like some realism. Especially if it is a comfy casual community game where you trade...
Hardship is a challenge worth investing in if you can progress
That's hard though to keep things comfy and casual with too much realism
Crafting and Gathering are essential for some patches of FFXIV
Because the crafted gear is considered BiS for some patches, like how the Aesthete gear was BiS for endgame crafting back in Shadowbringers
Palia could implement where tool durability could be exchanged for an ever-evolving tool meta which would also increase player retention imo
Yeah that is the stretch there.
Iām not understanding lol
What is....BiS?
Best in slot for gear
description? lol
Like the highest rated or best stats for a helm
ahhhh I see
For a specific class
I assume the costumes/cosmetics gave you a bonus for life skilling...kinda like bdo
Sorry, uh, ;w; I'm bad at explaining
So like, there's gear that is dropped from bosses or bought, and there is gear that is crafted by players
Sometimes, the gear that is crafted by players is far better than any dropped or bought gear
And the gear becomes stronger and better as more content is released in the patches of the game
so you would have the Axe, Axe+1, Axe+2 and then Axe*, and what on with the durability?
I just never played FFxiv
but- i thought we were talking abt durability lol thatās why i was confused
Yeah! The durability could be left out, and this sort of method put in place of it
Because in FFXIV, there is no durability
So like BDO with the nouver n junk
I didn't play FFXIV either but BiS was used for WoW and D3 as well. I guessed on that lol
Idk of a casual and comfy game with durability aince I haven't done many
You can use your weapons/tools as much as you want
Honestly no...I don't think that is a good idea. BDO did it in for me cuz I was finished with the full on grind
ah I see I see
BDO was too grindy
Every friend I have who played it said that it was too grindy or pay to win
yeah... I just don't want a comfy game to be too stressful
100%
Same
I do want a trading mechanic where you got like resources that respawn n stuff and the market fluctuates in price cap due to the stock and demand
I only play BDO every new season with a new character for the combat lol, I ignore ALL of the game I just like the combat way too much
Pick it up, play when I have down time cuz I want to have fun or accomplish something. Not stress about days or raids.
Weapon durability admittedly makes me upset because then it makes me think, "What is the most efficient way possible to utilize the full usage of this tool, as well as make sure I keep as many resources as possible?" My min/max mind comes into play at that point
Perhaps even have some groups that say heck no to killin trees
YUP SAME
I agree
It's even stressful to think about. Shall we just not have tool or weapon durability in the first place? I think it is best
I was intimidated playing BotW and picking up a stick and seeing durability š
Fair! And same, Asherelle
Hm maybe if we don't need a bow or an axe anymore and we get a better looking one or something we could just scrap it and reuse the lumber and stone?
Can have a quality limiter instead? Quality isnt something that goes down or changes, unless combining similar tools? 
I feel that's compromisable
I think botw is a little too aggressive abt it tbh
Iām currently playing a lot of Dying Light 2 and it has weapon durability, but I think is fair there bc is not as low as botw and you basically are constantly finding better and better weapons even in places with low level
I think durability could be done BUUUUUT it needs to be rewarding to the player as well as challenging
Maybe wont get 100% materials back but yes that's cool idea
Hi Asherelle 
Worth
As someone who doesn't play big mmo titles, I looked up to see context for the conversation and I'm met with strings of random acronyms(I think that's the word). I see durability though
Well Sandre. I don't even know what an acronym is. I hope you feel better.
CIA
FBI
AFK
those are acronyms
I WAS RIGHT YESS
<3
Shortened letters meaning other things yeah
I always call those abbreviations
BOTW is also an acronym btw
oh wait btw is also one!
Well same but different
b.o.t.w = abbreviation?
well ig abbreviations would be more of
etcetera/etc
acronyms are multiple words
Would you call BoTW abbreviated or acronym
oh so smaller variations of a singular word
Acronym
It's acronym
english is hard
It is
Acronym
Abbreviation would be something like..
an abbreviation would be 1 word
an acronym is many words
Acronym takes the first letter of each word (Federal Bureau of Investigation = FBI)
Abbreviation takes a shortened version of a single word (Established = Est.)
how did people even...come up with acronym...like... what is acro...what is nym...????????
I blame latin
latin?............xD etymology?
probably it has to be with the romans or the greeks 
Going back to tool durability
Sounds about right.
Acronym= B.O.T.W
Abbreviation= for road signs or shortening words, st., ave.
Just like synonym, antonyms, etc
sorry, we get off topic so easily 
I liked how older animal crossing games handled it..they had it, but it was a good amount. then you had an end goal with the golden tools
Same
I know what synonym is. Words similar to other words with different pronunciation and spelling but the same description or similar
Yes š
I never got to animal crossing endgame, I lost interest too easily. I should try again on my 2ds....
Animal crossing has an endgame?
antonym is a word that is opposite meaning of another word
Wild World is my personal fav
but i've played original on gamecube and a bit of city folk
I'm partial to City Folk because of nostalgia
Maybe you get to send that crook Tom Nook to prison for entrapment and indentured servitude
I have played animal crossing gamecube og aaaand new leaf...then I played ACNH
It might be an unpopular opinion but I couldn't get into new horizons as much š
When ya get to the point you find brewster finally... he gives you a dab of pigeon milk...I'm concerned
I mean he does force you to work for his kids to pay off your arbitrary loan
Wild world is the only animal crossing game I've ever played
Oooo I'd like a cafe in Palia tbh
Third I think?
It looks to be third person from the trailer
Also forcing you to collect all sorts of animals and fossils so his grifting friend can open a museum at no cost...
Yeah I think they said third person
palia is a fps death match battle royale survival
@undone delta Yeah I don't know why Height is important with those darn latins either
HECK YEAH (jk)
and Communist Regime simulator 
You guys know what game is actually GOATed...unlike Animal Crossing? Viva Pinata
Yep team answers had this answer about the view - #āāold-team-answers-alpha message
So a open world version of Papers, Please?
That's what I'm saying
Never heard of it š
you've never heard of Viva Pinata?
GIGO
Me neither
Nope
Spore was so sad when it finally released, there was so much hype and then... 
The old xbox and nintendo motion controllers did not work for poop
Ah console game - no wonder, I only have pc for gaming
...idec abt the game plz the show was top ever
I'm lookin at you wii and 360...
Viva Pinata was on PC as well...it came out around when Vista did
Better if it's on steam, the only time I had Xbox game pass was for three months when minecraft got their new launcher
THE SHOW WAS FIRE!
I had a passing thought "it'd be nice if Palia would be on a pass of some sort, at least a sale" and then I remembered it was free to play
XD
Oh back then I was hardcore wow raid healer rofl living on 4 hours of sleep rofl
Well all I know is I wouldn't mind a pass for like super cool and neat cosmetic items maybe even mounts or gliders. Just better be around 10 or less bucks
fair! I do like passes of those kinds
And the work better be FUN >:(
Unsure if there will be anything too stressful in the game that's required tbh
Might be optional content that's more stress-inducing, but for required in the game, I don't think there would be anything painstaking
Nah they said there shouldnāt be anything as stressful as preparing for a raid 
That's good to hear
While it's optional content, raiding in FFXIV does have important story tied to it, and it admittedly just stressed me out
please my hardcore raid days are also over
I enjoyed the story immensely, though
The stories got better with each raid
I'm a very story and character driven consumer
I consider myself one too but
my hot take is the way dark souls games present lore is not it for me, dawg
Fair!
YO welcome to new machine learning people at S6! It's nothing more than a hobby of mine right now, but I think I know enough to be very impressed by people who do it for a living
Raids don't seem fun, as an outsider who's never done one
The appeal was all that hard work for a satisfying payout, almost in the same vein as like, winning a sports match
Dark Souls games DONT have lore, that one youtuber just made it all up and we are trusting him
thats my hot take 
You might not like this comment then . But I am hoping he was joking rofl - #āāold-team-answers-pre-alpha message
hahahaha
I stay away from heavy competitive environments due to anger issues XD
I assume that means the character creator
I actually have this pet peeve with dark souls
I do like RPG's and combat focused games
but dark souls' difficulty isnt my thing
but I LOVE the ambiance, so I desperately want a game that is not as complicated as DS but that has that ambiance/character design/atmosphere type
spend a day on the character creator only to not like something about your character once you see them in in-game cutscenes and lighting
š
Palia is the Dark Souls of Cozy MMOs 
Oooh another machine learning - AI developer joined the team - welcome Paradox š
just to not like it when im 60h into the game and that one armour i got doesnt match my character anymore
Welcome, Paradox the studio that makes extremely complicated and eye soring strategy games
sorry i had to make the joke 
I play those complicated eye soring strategy oh wait I play their simulation games never mind
I'm doing a concern because the completionist in me is rising
The more I love a game, the more I want to 100% it
And I feel like Palia is going to be that MMO that appeals to my completionist
So if there is Souls-like content in the game, I'm going to cry while doing it anyway
me and jumping puzzles
Ash, im sorry, but we WANT jumping puzzles, yes I'm speaking for the entire player base
<activate gm floating powers> jk...do i seem like someone who would abuse that..
You can join Berry on that quest to completionist:)
I like jumping puzzles if they are me jumping for joy when I don't have to rely on my failing motor skills to achieve something in game
yes
Straight cosplaying Marvel's Vision to some John Williams soundtrack piece
I will one day. For indie game.
i am glad i will not be alone in this endeavor
you are reminding me of this one Doki Doki Literature Club meme but I cant find it now D:
is it this one cuz that's what immediately came to mind lool
YES
Is that frickin sans?
It's beautiful is what it is
that sounds amazing
oh there goes gravity
why am I always getting songs in my head cuz of convos here lolol
when does the game come out

soon as in couple of months or couple of years?
sooooooooooooon~
No specific date, but you can register for the next test
Hey chuuchuu. Did I already register if I registered like about 7 days ago for the other pre alpha?
I didn't get in either for the other one I was too late

I think yes...
Oh ok so its just there for any new upcoming tests too. thanks :)
I just was lookin at it and thought it was outdated
I am highly confuse
I signed up months ago...
Same
šŖ just in case
I have been lurking on corepunk's official discord lately cuz this one is so much more comfy and lively. their discord is sorta filled with some brash people... I do not bond well
There was this from earlier
Oh thanks Rio
slow after 6pm huh. Is everyone on the other side of the earth perhaps?
it's 3:40pm for me
Lotta people in norway and netherlands I saw
I'm in EST but I'm doing chores right now
And then I'm gonna focus on the Palia wardrobe art I've been working on
Oof pretty clothes...Make a poncho for me? :D
Oooo poncho is a good idea
I'm currently drawing every outfit that's been released officially via Twitter and the blog posts
But afterwards I'll probably see about doing some designs
Oh you are a drawer? You are going through the Palia designs?
Yes! I've stuck to primarily the art channels before today
I'm wanting to see how my character would look in each outfit since I can't play it and see myself right now
The aristocratic one is getting a lot of positive reviews from my friends so far even though the rogue one is my favorite
I'll post them all in one big pic once I'm done
Does he have a character card yet? I've only seen that character in one of...the videos I think? I can't quite fully recall where exactly whoops
Didn't even know he had a name released o.o
Hassian is the hunter and yes he has a card ..
Hassian - #š āofficial-art message
Bless
who'd you mean by the rogue then?
Omg I can imagine one of my friends really liking him because of Tau
The rogue outfit!
ohhhhh
Oh god is this a Warhammer reference?
thought you were talking abt characters and the Aristocratic was Jel lol

I'm sorry to disappoint but it's purely because Tau is the dog
She's a major dog person
Whoops sorry
Though you are 100% fair to assume I meant Jel
I've drawn him a few times already and he will be featured alongside my character in one of the outfits........
God I think I'm getting old, I have stopped caring about names of things
Haha it's okay! I getchu
or are you drunk?
Gonna have to drink and think on that one
Chores done, time to sit in for the rest of the night staring at outfits for way too long š©
oof
I hope this game has player trading that has to do with baking and cooking too...I'd love a good 10 dollar donut with cherry icing and chocolate sprinkles
Oooo yes yes yes!
Like make it an outdoor bake sale type thing or something and there be like a lemonade stand
Oh oh! and it can be upgraded into a store :D
#game-suggestions remember ;)
chappa cafe ! 
Asherelle plays GW2... š
flood it like crazy š I know I posted tons last year 
i will check and make sure no one else has thought of a cafe
This is kinda fantastic
Hmmm no one else has besides wanting to design their own sort of cafe themselves
I have a small idea
I hope it's okay i think of it here first before I post
Because I was thinking of a cafe ran by some npc, yes, but it being put in a sort of instanced area away from the hustle and bustle of the overworld that it's bound to have
To where you can only join it with yourself and your party if you have one
So that way it's not congested all the time and crowded
well you expand on their suggestion and add your own tweaks to the idea
and yes of course you can .. thats how many of my ideas start out
Thank you :D
I just wanna make sure it's okay ;w; and doesn't clog chat too much
palia-chat = chat about Palia š once it is in full suggestion state .. add it there š
Understood! o7
I'm unsure if that would be worse on servers, to have instanced areas instead of leaving it part of the overworld, but I think it'd be nicer and cozier that way, so that way you can have a place to hang out with friends that isn't just...your house
Yeah I just know the more work they put into the game the further away the game is going to be done
It's great ideas but...such little to be expected for now
This is also probably going to have additional content released in patches; it doesn't have to be all released at once!
True true. This could be really fun to play with...
they grab the ideas they like and put it in the good ideas pile for future additions š it won't necessarily delay the development to release time window š

Very good methodology
I've learned of some software development methodologies and they all just...feel nonsensical. Only because nobody has gone outside of them except the indie devs. Business stick to a rule of thumb while freelance artists create beauty and unique landscapes, characters...
and then add to it later
THAT is why I want to be an indie dev. Cuz what I make or help make is a project
Actually, now that I think about it
A small strip mall sort of place, or even a small mall in itself, where it's an instanced area for you to hang out and run around in with only your party members
Eh I'd like it to be an open space for everyone visiting instanced or non
not just party members.
There could be big places that are part of the overworld where everyone can interact and hang out in
But this would just be a small area for privacy's sake
Hoh crud I am suuuper hungry
True dude that is...not a bad idea. Yeah if I don't wanna deal with others I'll just be with friends
Kinda like how dungeons would be instanced areas that you can only see yourself
But instead of combat, you're...sipping coffee, or eating a muffin
Perhaps...private server rooms for that specific thing?
What will you eat?
Ooo yes yes private server room!
Sooooo basically what I'm seeing is... your house...but it is outside and you are buying stuff with friends and it isn't public... like your house
but its outside... xD
Yes! So things like a cafe, a karaoke lounge, an arcade
yeah sounds nice
Dude I have no idea. I live with my parents and they haven't gone to the dang store yet.. mood...
Basically a Community Plaza
That's a good name for it!
omg
Okay I think I have an idea for the suggestion post set
Gonna go type that up
Dangit now I gotta listen to ppap
Dood
We should be able to tailor clothes. Handmade. Somewhat from imagination.
This was my response when that was asked last month :
one can hope .. we have Jel who is a tailor .. it's possible he trains you in their skill .. based on skills we know there are npc's with those skills as their speciality .. so there are possible other skills that may find their way into the game at some point if not there on release .. Here is a list of my theoretical skill selection I made a while back. #š¬āpalia-discussions message
It would probably be possible if you had various assets for each piece of clothing
Example for Jackets: Sleeves, upper/lower torso, collar etc.
As well as everything else
@dense briar I think a better suggestion for instruments is you can make them and use them in your inventory, walk around with it in your hands, equip and unequip it, and play it freely or using a music scroll/script
#GiveJelWork
I mean if they let you put them in your house they should allow you to play them anywhere
then there could be a mute all instruments button or something. Maybe even add a party only filter for music
FFXIV has that and actually, it caused some issue because people would make macros, or automated commands input into the game, that followed along with midi files of copyrighted songs. As a result, Square Enix had to crack down hard. If you go to crowded areas in FFXIV that have someone playing music, and you are streaming, you better hope that they aren't playing a song that is copyrighted, otherwise you can get in major trouble for it.
I was thinking of doing it Yakuza style, where the songs are original, pre-recorded, and you can choose from a tracklist.
Uhhhhhhhh
Yeah no I meant like using your keyboard as the notes... not inputing script I meant a script as in a piece of paper
Have a read around this post from last year - there was a hefty discussion regarding playing music in Palia back then - #āāold-team-answers-pre-alpha message
Hmh
That's the thing--the instruments are played with your keyboard as the notes. People just figured out how to ruin it for others.
@dense briar Trying to find the best way to like... tell you what I mean but the only way I think you can find out is playing scum...finding or spawning a banjo/guitar/harmonica and then playing it
It isn't bad to use macros to make the notes sound better as a song... its not like there would be any progression with music just fun playing songs
Oh, I didn't even think about the noise issues, too. I forgot about that because I became so desensitized to it in FFXIV that it just became normalized, but yeah, it can be annoying when someone is trolling with the instruments.
That's why keeping it to private areas away from the overworld would be better off imo, so that way, there's no way to troll or annoy others with the music, or threaten streamers who can't show copyrighted music
I even said there could be a mute function for both public and party only instruments
Having a party only feature would be nice, that could be a part of it
I am home, and submitted the thing
You can troll in FFXIV with instruments? As a musician, I find that game underwhelming. You can't play multiple notes at the same time.
I literally have no idea how to pin something right now. I don't think there is one
Sorry, I think the reply feature wasn't going through when I said that, I meant to reply to your message above mine ;w; It is a good idea to have it party only, yes
Yeah, you can troll in FFXIV as a bard. It actually made it to where if you go to a central hub, if you're streaming, it's best to just turn game sound off.
Think the same thing happened with Arco. Tried seeing someone's message or whatever and it didn't go through?
There could be a block feature too if you don't want to see any of the trolls trolling you
Honestly I feel like whoever trolls should have a temp ban...
There is actually, in FFXIV, jail for players who broke a rule. You are then to talk to a mod from within your jail cell, who will then decide whether to keep your ban instated, or let you back into the overworld with a warning.
Very immersive and communicative
I like it. Admins. There should be a jail for the unwanted wrongdoers.
Yesss
It's also an instanced area, so you can't interact or bother other players
I had a friend who was in there for a whole hour before a moderator/admin came to talk to him
lol
and its civilized. no unecessary banning unless needed and you can speak in voice chat with eachother on the issue
repeated instances may need less looking into overtime. I suggest mac address banning like riot does...they'd have to create an entirely new account AND buy a new device just to play the game again if they are going to be that much of an annoyance.
Just...friendlier.
Yeah
Certain things like spambots aren't necessarily given a chance to go to jail, but people with a long track record of playing without issue are
I still utterly hate how nerfed by circumstance the music system is in FFXIV. You should be able to hit multiple notes at the same time. God as a musician it's maddening.
Spooky over here clutching his piano like.. "I know you'll never make me hit one note I know it!"
"making atrata dangit!"
I totally understand. It's severely limiting. I was really hype for playing the piano but eh
I'll stick to the guitar options
Xylophone
I had a similar idea a while back regarding Eshe being the town magistrate - #š¬āpalia-discussions message
And another one - #š¬āpalia-discussions message
Oof rootin tootin cowboy cops. Yes please
All I can imagine are the guards from Skyrim
XD GAH
Ok I laughed
No game makes in-game instruments as good as Rust. I mean c'mon you can put your trumpets in all your turrets. š
What in the world?
lol
Mabinogi's music system was pretty fire. It had a lott of different instruments you could obtain and even could make songs in score scrolls.
I've always wanted to try Mabinogi but my friends urged me not to š
i remember playing rust for 35 minutes, i chopped down 3 trees, found a boar, tried to kill it but it curbed me, respawned and went to grab my items, player killed and t-bagged me, and i decided i should play it later lol
Oh I can tell you why.
though, never touched it since š¤
Mabinogi is old fashioned tbh
I just play on a building server with limited PvP
is mabinogi the game where you can learn any weapon skill and you have those tough dungeons at low level?
#šāpalia-memes message its true?
They aren't tough...but yes you can learn every skill. HOWEVER. Some skills are not available to some races like elves and giants
they were tough for me, but i might have been under leveled lol xD
I figured that out the hard way. Apparently you need to level up AND rebirth to get a cumulative level... it strengthens your character over time every full week
Alby dungeon is the easiest dungeon
At least when it isn't a hero dungeon...
I could go into explanation about Mabinogi for paragraphs since I've played it for.. 14 years.. But I'd have to take it to #š®āother-games
I will read it once you post it!
Please explain away you can possibly do way better than I
I'm so bad at describing things I get headaches...
oh, oh, oh!
will palia mining also involve smelting the ores?
or will that be for a craft like blacksmithing? š®
Blacksmithing has everything to do with melting down ores
okie dokie o7
Lanterns and housing beams need to be made out of something~!
I feel like they could be uh...hand in hand though. So you could be both
@keen hull one would be an expertise while the other is a job maybe?
i hope you can learn more than one craft/job/thing
would love to do blacksmithing and mining >:D
Same!
Hm...I feel like one could be your first expertise then you get a job with your expertise. You could be a blacksmith that has two seperate types like either weapon crafting or armor crafting. Maybe there could be skill level ups you can just unlock both?
Cuz nobody can JUST be a miner OR a fisherman...
I think the fishing and gardening and everything is available to you but you would just have better use of a skill because you chose that expertise and then build upon the others.
But frankly, maybe only have one or two jobs
though if you can only be one, i dunno what i'll do D:
I want to make a little shop that sells metals and ores :3c
That can be ... Yeah that...actually makes alotta sense
"Nora's & Morra's Ores"
It could be that you pick and level up any and all skills, but choose a specific profession that involves like two or three skills at once
I think Rio is onto something there
ooo that would be awesome
Like the game isn't set in stone at all but the way we are figuring this is like a pathway to something great in the long run
Yessss :D
so things can be reworked and added like Xrystal said
I'm getting very forgetful I'll be right back I gotta eat something
npnp! Go eat, have fun!
i should probably go to bed since its 1am xD
Good night, rest well!
They have said there is nothing stopping you from doing everything but that it will be a challenge to keep them all up ( whatever that means ) and that they expect most people will pick 2 or 3 to concentrate on for the most part.
#āāold-team-answers-pre-alpha message
No hard lockouts, but you'll find it challenging to keep up with ALL THE THINGS```
[#āāold-team-answers-pre-alpha message](/guild/809856101326913567/channel/829113775876735026/p/850447756588875787/#msg-850448215026302977)
```[S6] BuscoBear ā 06/04/2021
We want people to get into a skill and start to identify with it. We expect people will have 2-3 skills that they really invest in and build their persona around.```
As an omnicrafter and gatherer in FFXIV, I take that challenge and I accept it
I went ahead and explained a bit of Mabi in #š®āother-games
Oh so I was right about the two to three skill usage thing for a profession, at least
somebody said the same thing at that time 
Challenge accepted!```
Haha I'm glad I'm not alone
oh me to rio! everyting to 90, and working through completing all the catalogues/achievements related 
I was a wow altoholic so I could do every profession 
i miss wow, but now ffxiv and gw2 are my new loves ā¤ļø
One of my friends actually went ahead and leveled everything to 90, both combat and disciple
I'm too anxious to do all the combat classes š° So I applaud her
I'm on Midgardsormr ;w;
darn, chaos - omega for me ;w;
Hey, data center travel will be a thing eventually!
I wanted to like GW2, since GW Prophecies was my first MMO, but I just couldn't. And ever since Wildstar shut down, it spoiled me with it's faster paced Raiding and I just couldn't get attached to FF14
sadly it's only for your region atm, i think it's to do with the lack of cards for servers and stuff
Oh
Dang
oh gw2 has improved a fudge ton since base game, specially with EoD
I read your post, thank you so much for typing it all out! And that's understandable, FFXIV isn't for everyone, especially with how the first part of it, A Realm Reborn, can feel so slow in comparison to later content.
agreed agreed rio, mmm mm
Not a problem. And Mabinogi is a whales game, to put it short.
Ahhh so much like BDO, I understand
I love how the new kiddos have been suggestion
is always great to have fresh people do it
:3
I love putting in ideas. I'm part of other developments as a volunteer because I just love doing it. I'm just trying to think which field to get into as far as development goes, because I know that studios don't have an 'idea guy', everyone has ideas.
hot cheesy chili
yāall are kiddos until you put your application for either the Chapaa Protectioj Agency or the fake Chuu bandits
I could go for some chili right now tbh
I should pick some up
I am a strong defender of both
But I did pick Chuu because of the cuteness to it
I'd probably name mine Charmant
It's Dutch for "charming"!

xP

Are we discussing the idea of pets in Palia again? I love this discussion.

I can't decide between Chuu or Chapaa, really. I already dedicated to naming my pet 'Chuulapaa'
omg
I'm changing the name to Chuupacabra if it would fit
the conversation has been jumping around but yes looks like chapaa are back on the topic
@scenic hare @dense briar Both those names are frickin lovely
Mine will be Chimichappa
It's like we're on pogo sticks here, and I am happy for it :D
Pappa the Chappa
I want the owl from this sticker.
Omg yes having an owl! I love owls
I hope it hoots
and I wonāt disagree
Ohhhh, a little golem Owl?
I want a weasel like thing
I just recalled my dream last night...
I ate a soft boiled egg...like very soft
Not sure...why? Not sure what else was in there
I would also like to say that sounds like a "Challenge accepted" moment for me
same here! I can't wait to see what that will look like here. Not necessarily in having alts, but you know
that is so cute
having a pet would be really nice, especially if we can have a combat and non-combative pet, one of each maybe? :O
although there's not a lot for a combat one to do, except help with chasing something we're hunting hehe
reminds Lyssy about Tau and Hassian 
Cucco were terrible and evil. But also so cute sometimes. 
no wait, you're right, you're right, a pet could help us with that

Greetings Palians! I hope everyone is doing well! 
Baaanananananaaa
ooh I'd love to hear more about what @viral prairie is working on ._.
Chulupa is a delicious hot sauce that I drank 2 bottles of back in summer of 2020, it was just that good itās like if takis were a drink
i have a question. Will there be a limit of letters for a player name? i wanna use a new name i been recently using and is in 3 letters. Will the game let me?
Hey Anna, where did Napoleon hide his french armies?
.... in his sleevies
Ehhhhhh I feel bad bout unleashing a meme video with full body tracking in it...didn't know there was gonna be smexy kermit
Best not to post anything in there I'll just continue wholesome art
Happy timezones everyone!
Herrooooo
BANANANA ENERGY!! 
Power of the bananana
Ba-na-na-na

Takis are gross and taste like nuclear waste to me. Chalupas are amazing shelled tacos. Also... Ba-na-naaaa, ba-na-naaaaa.. -na-na
Loooooool I love how there is a pineapple emoji as a reaction
Goodnight Palians, take care! 
Banana powered golems
Isn't that just the minions?
I'm not sure?
Wacha mean I guess is what I'm askin
does it gotta do with what I was playin? League? cuz minions
That is large coffee mug
OOOOOOOOOH....jeez I'm so stupid sorry
I love despicable me. I really wanna watch tiny gru
Missed opportunity for riot to make April fools all the minions.. Minions
Oh there were rubber duckies in the river, wierd size changes every 12 minutes and you turn into a minion cannon or raptor everytime you respawned for about 2 days
Just like Disney messed up the release date for Obi-Wan
I think it'd take alotta money just to incorporate that. and You know riot is greedy
Small indie company after all!
hah...smol you say...
Yus yus veri smol
"was" smol...now beeg biz. Bad biz.
"Valorant"
The only good thing that they did was make Arcane a thing
Oh you mean counternite fortstrike
That wasnāt even them that was a French studio they outsourced to 
At least riot put in ways to get skins for free.. given it's random
But there's no such thing as duplicates
Oh but of course the skin you get is on a champion you never playyyy oooooo what fun
I did state that yes. And there's no duplicates with petty prizes
That french studio did good then.
They did a remarkable job
I do like that you can get skins you already own but you can just roll them into one you guaranteed donāt
The shards, I mean
oh like I rolled 2 mythics and 1 legendary and got a friggin hazmat heimer ??? the one champ I never play?
LOVING IT....... lol....
Oh yeah, forgot about the shards for some reason... Mash three together for a guaranteed skin you don't own that could be a skin you can't get anymore unless its a reward skin
the other three skins were more worth my time and sacrifice...
Itās purely random, quality in the roll doesnāt matter. Itās why you have the option to save them to just get that skin you want instead
tis why I hate it good buddy
a friendly reminder to please continue the interesting topic on the #š®āother-games
thanks for understanding pals!
Hiya ducky! I know! #š®āother-games !
oof ok
Thatās my bad ^^ I know better 
Oh no, mods are awake, scramble!
How you been my feathered friend?
BAAAH NAAAAA NAAAAAAA
still quacking 
You had dinner?
Does the quack attack sound like a good ability you could have in a game?
not yet but it's otw now hehe chicken with rice, right after my workout
Hiya Darf!
Good! Gotta make sure ^^ do enjoy that sounds yummy!
BERRY PIE MASTER!
You guys have some great fun I shall sleep n get some nice nightmares
I hope the time jump of unconscious hallucinations go smoothly and you emerge rested
Plot twist, you get super fluffy pink dreams
Or you know what normal people say, sleep well
oof no I meant crazy as in weeeee :c crazy good
sowwy uwu
Who likes normal anyway ^^ Iām fine with being crazy, at least Iām not boring that way

Depends on the kind of crazy tho
Letās call it weird-crazy
Okay that's fine š
Or fun-crazy! 
XD
Normal is a society construct that people have tried to implement and failed. Just like perfection
I'll have you know I've got perfection down
Except the humility and modesty modules, they seem to be malfunctioning
Lmao
Of course Berry. Keep being the best you ever
My psychiatrist calls me a god too, she calls it a complex but it's important to read between the lines sometimes



LMAOOOO
It's beautiful isn't it
It is XD
I'd dare call it perfect
You know what, we're gonna be good friends
I do hope so. Sarcasm is my middle name.

I think I may have decided on my favorite villager
Because whenever I play any sort of game or pick any sort of personality it's the simple, gentle giant. Doubly so if it's robotic/golem like in anyway. Also being born an the coast, fishing is a hobby I well understand to take life slow and enjoy what's around
Any gift is meaningful if the person took the time to think about you, as time is precious
Also rocks are awesome
Simply put, I feel like I can connect with him the most. If I had to pick one that didn't resonate with a connection, it would more than likely be Badruu
That may change with time and as I interact with them as the game develops.
What is your favourite Palia?
Palia is favorite Palia
Palia is my Palia Palia

I was wrong? Well time to feel horrible all day
But why?

Cant wait to play this game, sounds fun
Blessed Shimmerflies and Happy Timezone Everyone! 
I know you're more than likely joking, but I gotta say it. Society is horrible for instilling that being wrong is bad. It's beautiful and amazing. It's a part of living, learning and growing.
I'm not the kind of person That tends to joke
Oh you're wrong? Name 600 reasons why
I really need some kind of cheering up now....
bibbidy bobbidy boooooo
That doesn't help
I like your batpony.
Thanks I guess
Cheering people up is not my fortƩ, but i will send hugs anyway.

I think we get Q&As today!!
Hope so...
they've been working on them .. I asked the other day
We're working on it! Promise ```
