aahhh

that game

[raw fjord]

I have never heard of that game until now

[trim zenith]

😮

[gritty smelt]

I remember this!!

Love the edit

[raw fjord]

I'm just gonna share my opinion here. I hate the phone version of Spotify. On the computer you're able to loop songs, shuffle play and loop songs at the same time, and loop songs in your Playlist so it doesn't go outside the songs you want to hear. The tablet version does the same thing. The phone version nooo. That only gets shuffle play and no capabilities to loop songs. On top of that computer and tablet get three ads and 30 minutes ad free every once in a while, phone gets six ads and every time the 30 minute ad free thing pops up there is a 50/50 chance it will either work or break and you get no ad free 30 minutes. It pays to have a couple playlist with over 100 songs because they recently fixed it so shuffle play at least plays the songs in the playlist first before you get into who knows what but it annoys me. I think phone version Spotify used to have these features too and they got rid of it.

This is probably to get people to pay monthly for convenience

[median brook]

Does android spotify not have the loop playlist button?

[raw fjord]

In #🎮│other-games

[median brook]

Well that's interesting..

[raw fjord]

Yep, it annoys me immensely

[median brook]

I'm looking at mine now and I have it

[raw fjord]

Especially since I'm one of those people who can listen to songs on loop unphased

[median brook]

(but again I'm on iOS)

[raw fjord]

What does the ios version look like?

[median brook]

posted it in #🎮│other-games

Gonna delete it once you've seen it though

[raw fjord]

Gatcha, I remember the phone version having those features before and then they vaniahed

[median brook]

Do me a favor and click the 3 dots up top right

[raw fjord]

It's basically an 'other' tab

[median brook]

I'll dm what mind looks like

[ancient gale]

If anyone else is looking for videogame composers to listen to, here's a few of my favorites:
Koji Kondo - Mario Bros., Legend of Zelda, various other Nintendo games
Justin E. Bell - Formerly with Obsidian, now PlayStation. Composed Pillars of Eternity and The Outer Worlds
Robin Beanland - Rare Ltd., Composer of games like Donkey Kong Country and Sea of Thieves

[candid ocean]

i cant sleep anymore, ive always had bad sleep but this is ridiculous now.

[wise flame]

sorry to hear that. Have you tried using some melatonin?

[rigid bridge]

That or a hot toddy (warmed milk with a dash of nutmeg) can do wonders.

[short creek]

Hey everyone. I'm looking for relaxing games to try while listening to music, does anyone has some recommendation?

[cobalt roost]

personally, flash games do the trick for me (RIP Flash, but some were ported over). Also try looking into puzzles: Machinarium is a beautiful calming puzzle with wonderful soundtrack, and Islanders is a nice puzzle/time killer on Steam

[muted pelican]

Sailwind is a an early access single player sailing game thats great to vibe to with music

[short creek]

Thanks for your recommendations

[stable plover]

Happy Thanksgiving to Anericans today.

[tiny vector]

happy days and good evening to the lot of you, hope life is treating you all well

[hallow kite]

hello!

[cobalt roost]

Wait, I just thought of something

Our lovely CM's name might just be related to Amelia Earhart

[rigid bridge]

That is actually correct. Amelia Earhart was an inspiration to her Discord tag.

[onyx quarry]

Oh I had no idea

[wary dune]

yeah we asked her before halloween

[onyx quarry]

Oh neat!!!

[wary dune]

It had been on my mind for ages .. but of course she either wasn't in the chat or I forgot when she was .. but managed to catch her that time because we were all chatting about the pics

Ah here we go .. my initial thought but she wasn't watching the screen then : #💬│palia-discussions message and Kaede managing to ask her the question : #💬│palia-discussions message

[onyx quarry]

Oh neat! Amelia is so fantastic

[marsh cypress]

otter chatter chat

[cobalt roost]

Palia better have otters

[wary dune]

They are more likely to have an animal made up of multiple critters that may include otter

[marsh cypress]

still waiting on confirmation that we will have dolphins in palia

[wary dune]

Seeing as we don't know if there will be traversible oceans .. they are unlikely to create ocean geography and lifeforms for them until they are a part of the game

[marsh cypress]

ffs i need my dolphin mount

DEVS GET ON IT

valve pls fix

[wary dune]

[cobalt roost]

yes

[uneven sierra]

[wise flame]

Hi Shrew! How are you doing without your wisdom teeth now?

[stable plover]

Kinjerry!!! just a bit of swollenness and cant open my mouth up all the way

[wise flame]

Aw, I hope the swollenness will go away soon. Till then I hope you'll still be able to enjoy food

[slate lantern]

Heya all 🙂

[wise flame]

Hi Tophi!

[slate lantern]

How are you?

[wise flame]

Bit tired, but super happy that the weekend is finally here. What about you?

[compact locust]

Hey everyone

[hallow kite]

hello!

[compact locust]

How are yous?

[hallow kite]

I'm good, modding minecraft, how is xitscarls?

[cobalt roost]

I've taken a... let's say voluntary day-off

[compact locust]

I'm grand thanks! Watching some Netflix atm

[compact locust]

Ayyy me too

[slate lantern]

Same. I was Black Friday shopping.

[winter mason]

so how's everybody's black friday going for them?

[stable plover]

I am still recovering from wisdom teeth surgery

[winter mason]

so to go along with #💬│palia-discussions message kaede's message doing good is always rewarding because you never know what somebody is going through. thanksgiving day my dad smoked two turkeys and two hams on the trailer smoker that day. we only ate one turkey but the ham was gone. they was camping at the campground around here in there 5th wheel camper as well. the attendants at the front ended up getting one of the turkeys i drove it to them and they said there day was going terrible and the lady up there was about to cry when i gave them the extra turkey. just seeing the tears in her eyes and knowing what they was going through that day basically lifted up my spirit knowing that i done something good.

[stable plover]

wrong english

it's doing well.

Most of my food yesterday was soft foods

[winter mason]

actually no i worded it correctly if you read it right.

[stable plover]

"kaede's message doing good"

doing well

[winter mason]

doing well is if you are sick doing good is if you are doing something good for somebody

[stable plover]

My conversation is over more pills to take

https://tenor.com/view/baby-asleep-couch-sleeping-tired-gif-7372829

[scarlet token]

ooh, I remember getting all 4 of mine taken out... chipmunk cheeks and can't open my mouth.. lol... what a time that was.

[scarlet token]

oh! what kind of mod are you making? or are you adding mods to your minecraft?

[scarlet token]

not shopping.. lol... not out of any protest or idealism, but just because I never do it. Ok... twice... but that's it.

[winter mason]

haha i have not been shopping on black friday in years

[limpid yacht]

is there an official release date about the game ?

[wary dune]

Not an official date .. but we have a time frame of less than 2 years and 7 months with Closed Alpha expected in the first half of next year

[limpid yacht]

ooh

i see

thats cool thanks for the info ^_^

[scarlet token]

hey, are you new here? Welcome to Palia chat 🙂

[limpid yacht]

yes i am

and thank you 😁

very excited about Palia

[scarlet token]

oh, we all are... lol... be sure to check out all the cool channels we have here.. community art, memes, official art..

[limpid yacht]

will surely do so

[wary dune]

I posted a welcome message in #💬│palia-discussions that has the links to the main informative channels 🙂

[hallow kite]

ah currently working on some dungeon crawler project

[scarlet token]

have you made other mods?

[hallow kite]

Not really, never had time to finish anything

but I'm focused on this one

[wary dune]

The big question is are you enjoying yourself ? 🙂

[whole crypt]

be me
be a north Walian
country being hit by storm Arwen, especially in coastal areas
be in 40+ winds atm
everybodies bins are being blown down the street
US NWS lists winds hitting 58+ mph as their highest category threat level of extreme
national storm warning that gusts of 60 to 70 mph are expected in coastal areas with gusts in excess of 70 mph in a few places
be me who is so coastal that I'm about a 15 second jog from the sea
BBC posts new update of man killed by the storm blowing a tree into him
national update that up to 90mph winds expected to hit some areas
mfw...

[wary dune]

Ouch .. thankfully I'm in the south so not getting quite so bad winds .. but it sounded windy enough last night

[whole crypt]

Ah, well I'm glad you're not being bantered on by the winds there Xrystal. I'd bet those windmills up in Orkney are gonna turn the country radioactive with energy lmao.

[wary dune]

I can imagine. I was around for the 'great storm' of 87 though .. my last year of school .. that was memorable enough

[whole crypt]

Oh interesting, you're an older lass than I, and I've not hear of it. I'll keep a tab or two open and read into it when I get a bit of time. ^_^

[wary dune]

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Great_storm_of_1987

I live in greater london

[whole crypt]

Yeah I see you mention London every now and then, like times n whatnot. You're also the person who has Palia Mum right?

[wary dune]

yep

[uneven sierra]

This would be me everyday after school lol.

Omg those days were so horrible aha.

[limpid yacht]

Is there a worse london?

I'm becoming addicted to League of Legends

[quiet lava]

https://www.reddit.com/r/perfectlycutscreams/comments/r2xw68/loud_frog_guard/?utm_medium=android_app&utm_source=share not sure if I should laugh or I feel bad for the froggos

[stable plover]

What kind of school?

[gaunt wigeon]

Oh no, poor frogs @quiet lava . They sound kind of funny/cute though

[limpid yacht]

This news has left me devastated and disappointed in the mmo community and game development as a whole. I am beyond angered at the destestable mannerisms in which the mmo community as a whole has conducted itself in such an unbecoming manner

[wary dune]

what are you talking about ?

[hallow kite]

wow I just learned you can't name a folder on Windows "Con"

or many other names

[wary dune]

Hmm .. kinda makes sense .. I think con: was a dos command at some point in the past

[hallow kite]

yeah

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bC6tngl0PTI

so how is everyone doing this fine evening? Hope the week's been good to you all

[lavish kiln]

hope everyone's having a great weekend

[rigid bridge]

I am having a weekend, mostly trying to stay away from the large mass gatherings I am subjected to on a weekly basis at work. (I really want to get out of the retail/hospitality field.)

[tiny vector]

thats a rough field these days

good vibes to you 👍

[limpid yacht]

Week’s always neat as a NEET

Hope yours has been terrific too

[tall vector]

Way late to comment but I need out of food service.

[stable plover]

[scarlet token]

I've never played League of Legends, but just watched the Arcane series on Netflix the other night.. it was INTENSE. Also awesome animation, interesting color usage, very graceful visuals.

[scarlet token]

thanks, it's been an awesome weekend! 🙂

[limpid yacht]

Yeah that’s why I got into the game

[scarlet token]

I'm going to have to try it 🙂

[limpid yacht]

If you decide to do so and play on the EU region I’d be more than happy to join you for a few matches

[scarlet token]

I don't know if I can? I'm in the USA.

[hallow kite]

hemlo here as well

@scarlet token did you read it?

[scarlet token]

yes, sure did!! love it!!

[limpid yacht]

Hello Xrystal

Hope you're doing well

[wary dune]

yep yep .. waiting for shopping delivery

[agile crater]

hello yall!

do you guys know what regions will it be available? im starting to be concerned that it wont come out here lol

[wise flame]

we still don't have any information about any possible region restrictions (at least as far as I know)

[agile crater]

i see i see

i just hope it comes out to most regions but not to the point that it overcrowds and cause problems for the servers

[wary dune]

They have said that their servers will feel alive but not crowded

One of the answers regarding playing with friends stated that you will have ways to ensure you can play with your friends ... We are still exploring ways of networking before entering the game with your character - at the moment the easiest way is to either become friends (you can search for them even if you’re not in the same area), or join a party together, after which you will have manual controls to ensure playing together. This is from the answer they gave me regarding playing with friends on day 1. ( #❓│old-team-answers-alpha message ) - Now whether area means an area in the game world or real world I don't want to assume

[agile crater]

i see i see

well hopefully it will be both smooth, peaceful, and playable by everyone who wants to play it.

i am: HYPED

[wary dune]

The 'ask the devs questions' channel ( #851872239435644928 ) should be open in the first or second week of December usually for a week. So check in then if you have some questions not already answered.

[limpid yacht]

@white marsh What helps me is watching space videos.

I recommend the YouTube channel Astrum

[white marsh]

Okay

[limpid yacht]

Cozy documentaries

[white marsh]

Thanks 👍

[scarlet token]

oh my gosh, I fell asleep last night watching on Youtube "The Casual Criminalist"... with Simon Whistler.. lol

nothing like murder and mahem to help a person fall asleep 😉

he does a few very interesting channels, including Biographics, Today I Found Out, TopTenz, and Brain Blaze.

[limpid yacht]

Murder mysteries documentaries are cozy to watch

My mum likes them

[wary dune]

I’ve found programs that I’ve watched so many times I don’t need my eyes open to ‘watch’ it will help me drift off

[fair elk]

I just figured out why we gamers love videogames/boardgames instead of reality!

If we can't see the objectives that are simple and easy to get the reward, we tend to not do anything because life isn't a videogame.

I am planning to make rewards and such for reality obligations. For example, if I want to save money, I get $5 a day after completing all the daily tasks to spend at the end of the week for whatever I want. If I put money into a savings account, I get an extra $5 to spend. This helps if people are going out with friends on the weekends and such. The weeks would have to start on Saturday and then leading up to Friday though.

I could even use something I love to eat or something fun to do.

[wary dune]

sounds interesting .. I have a priority system .. any luxury money gets spent on areas I will utilise the most - family shopping > family tree research > my own shopping > games

[scarlet token]

if I could clean my house, paint the walls, put up christmas lights, etc. with the click of a mouse... dang. Life would be so much better.. lol

I'm on a limited income... so I have all my "bills" money go into one checking account, and other "spendable" money goes into a 2nd checking account. That way I don't accidentally spend my bills money.

[hot bluff]

I don't have a limited income but at the same time I do something similar.

My husband says its a bit micromanagy on my side of things but at the same time i find that I have more control of the monies and where they're going and what goes to what

[scarlet token]

better to have "too much" control than not enough!! lol

as long as you're not a "Scrooge", of course.

[hot bluff]

Nah.

I have a small account that the bills come out of, simply so I don't have to worry about 'when the bill withdraws the money' and falling short in the main account. Most of the groceries and all that will come from the main account that has a small 'stipend' piggy bank thing that a set amount goes into each month which is specifically for buying special fun stuffs' like shopping for self or new games or whatever.

[wary dune]

yeah that was the way I dealt with my money when I had money to put aside .. most weeks though .. its .. hmm shopping money .. ooh .. I can pay my mum this week

[scarlet token]

well, I just had to ask my son to pay the $200 copay for my back procedure ;P so yeah, I run out of "spending money" rather quickly. But I usually manage to toss a little money at games I like to play 🙂

[fair elk]

I just thought of something.... Gonna go post it in #game-suggestions

[hallow kite]

gn everyone!

[scarlet token]

[limpid yacht]

i'm talking about my game i ordered

STILL hasn't arrived 😡

thank you @unique spear

it's in the country, but still at the border control being in "assessment''

probably just border control being difficult

[unique spear]

Shipping takes longer now since pandemic

[limpid yacht]

ye

[cobalt roost]

I sent a package from Japan when I was leaving

it's been 130 days

[limpid yacht]

my friend already has his game, but that's mainly because he lives in the same country as where mine is being shipped from

[unique spear]

Now my love life is also delayed

[white marsh]

Ohh okay

[whole whale]

hi

[white marsh]

Hi neighbor 👋

[whole whale]

i like play mmorpg games

[scarlet pebble]

sameee

[delicate oasis]

i don't play many cos theres not many i like

but then i found palia and i was like :0

me want

[whole whale]

now i'm play guild war 2 & eso

[scarlet pebble]

literally all my friends alex xD

[white marsh]

For me, the internet here is pretty slow so I can't play many either
Mostly RuneScape and GW2

[delicate oasis]

XDD

[scarlet pebble]

everyone i've shown the game is like woah i want signs up

[whole whale]

yes i see trailer its so cool

[delicate oasis]

yessss

and i literally got stardew valley 3 days ago and if palias anything like that then imma love it with everything i've heard

[frozen vault]

Is the estimate release date 2022? or 2023? im guessing 2023 so the game comes out complete

[scarlet pebble]

i imagine the latter ye, seeing as the next test is q2 2022

[white marsh]

Alex, if you like Stardew, have you tried Garden Paws?

[whole whale]

omg really

[rigid bridge]

There is no official release date, the developer WhoaNonstop gave a vague comment saying 2 years and 7 months about a month ago. That being said it could be sooner (or even later).

[scarlet pebble]

i also love sdv alex

[delicate oasis]

is there not gonna be like an open beta for everyone to play on this year?? 😭

[whole whale]

thanks for info bro

[delicate oasis]

yesssss

[frozen vault]

Understandable

[scarlet pebble]

nope, sry

[delicate oasis]

nope but i'll check it out

[wary dune]

Not this year no .. closed alpha in the first half of next year

[delicate oasis]

damnnnn

sad times

[scarlet pebble]

fr

[rigid bridge]

If you are interested in helping play test Palia, please be sure to take the time to visit Palia.com and enter your email and complete the brief survey

[scarlet pebble]

yeah no it's closed alpha next year so

[frozen vault]

Yeah, does anyone know an another game like palia thats out?

[frozen vault]

Already did Lol

[scarlet pebble]

my time at portia is a good one ^^

they also have my time at sandrock coming out soon

[delicate oasis]

OOOOOO imma do that

[whole whale]

😍 ohh thanks for info

[wary dune]

Not like Palia already out .. the closest is in the same development time frame as Palia and others that are close are like My Time at Portia and stardew valley to name 2 from what I have heard

[frozen vault]

Yes for anyone who didn't do the survey i suggest u do it and try giving ur honest opinion 🙂

[rigid bridge]

Anything that is an MMO? Not directly. Stardew Valley or animal crossing are both close to the community simulation aspects of this game (but both are limited multiplayer or singleplayer). At least that is the speculation.

[frozen vault]

Gotcha

[delicate oasis]

just did it

[frozen vault]

🙂

[wary dune]

I would suggest seeing what other people are talking about in #🎮│other-games at various times in the last 5 almost 6 months and see what ones fit your interests ..

[frozen vault]

that moment ur out of games to play, on pc and PlayStation and ur just bored 😦

[frozen vault]

im lurking in that

[white marsh]

What kind of games do you like Bio?

[frozen vault]

tbh im open to all types of games

i just dont like top view games like League other than that

im ok with evrything else

[white marsh]

Hm...
Have you played hollow knight

[wary dune]

did you use the discount week on steam to check out some that were very cheap ?

[frozen vault]

I have played for couple of hours

I havent seen it xrystal

anything good there?

[rigid bridge]

And just to keep in mind for everyone, completing the survey is not a guarantee to getting in, but only to be put into consideration. This is because over 70,000 had an interest in Palia during the pre-alpha and only 1,400 got in. We have no idea how many players will be entered to play in the formal Alpha test. So be sure to temper expectations.

[whole whale]

i complete my servay😎

[white marsh]

sad noises of no pre-alpha

[wary dune]

All we know so far is that there will be more people coming to Alpha than there were in Pre-Alpha but still a moderate number

[frozen vault]

im ok with waiting for a game that comes out complete and good 😄

[white marsh]

Wait I just remembered
There's gonna be a dragon game releasing on Dec 2

[median brook]

So 1400+1

[whole whale]

hahah

[white marsh]

It's called Century age of ashes

[rigid bridge]

[white marsh]

Kinda like league tho, 5v5 matchup

[median brook]

[white marsh]

The gingerbread chapaa is too cute

[frozen vault]

The games im waiting for 2022 is Dying Light 2, (Palia if it comes out), Horizon Zero Dawn. and something else forgot 😦

[median brook]

Thank youuuu! I’ve been so eager to use it for so long now xD

[white marsh]

😊

I'm mostly waiting for Silk song

[median brook]

I’m waiting for Tiny Tina’s Wonderland in March!

[frozen vault]

see i was gonna get that but

idk it seemed really bad to me

idk y

[white marsh]

Bio if you like birds and word puzzles then look up Keywe

[frozen vault]

hm..

[median brook]

Knowing Gearbox it’ll be fun of really bad jokes and over the top violence, sounds like my kind of Tuesday

[rigid bridge]

I am honestly not waiting for too many new games short of Palia. I was waiting for Overwatch 2 (but let's not talk about that). Instead I have been focusing my time developing my art skills and working on losing weight and playing simple games like Minecraft and Celeste.

[frozen vault]

explain honey

[white marsh]

Though it's co-op so you need a friend to play with preferably
You can still play solo

[whole whale]

[frozen vault]

what type of game is it?

puzzle?

[median brook]

Celeste is wonderfully orchestrated

[wary dune]

you said the magic words

[white marsh]

Basically two kiwis work in a post office. The levels are basically platformer but you have to write words, deliver mail and stuff

[median brook]

UNIQUE?!

[frozen vault]

!!!!

[rigid bridge]

It is. While I have the digitals for Lena Reine's soundtracks from that game I am SO looking forward to my LPs coming in February.

[frozen vault]

sounds unique hmm let me look up a video

[wary dune]

no .. Celeste and wonderful

[white marsh]

Not exactly puzzle, more like a bit of platform with some challenges? Idk how to describe ut

[frozen vault]

whats the game called again?

[median brook]

I mean if you haven’t played them the Ori games might be for you

[white marsh]

Keywe
Ori is good, I've heard a lot but I haven't tried yet

[wary dune]

I know thats the word you don't like

[whole whale]

bye guys

[median brook]

I really don’t it just rubs me the wrong way I don’t know why, like I know WHY but why it just makes my eye twitch I don’t know

[frozen vault]

ok that artstyle reminds me of It takes two Lol

[median brook]

Omg loved that game

[rigid bridge]

Celeste is an exceptionally challenging puzzle platformer that won numberous awards in 2018 including Best Indie Game of the Year. It also has a narrative story line focused around the heroine, Madaline as she faces her inner-self as she climbs Celeste mountain. https://youtu.be/FqBj2IGg6Uw

[median brook]

Played through it takes two with my girlfriend, that was a blast

[frozen vault]

It takes two was one of my favorite game this year

[median brook]

Agreeing with you on that one

[white marsh]

Berry lore updated

[median brook]

Oh shit no wait

[frozen vault]

how do i do the spoiler thing again? so i dont spoil it

like spoiler tag

[median brook]

For text? || on both sides | |

[rigid bridge]

||Enter Spoiler Content Here|| -> ||Enter Spoiler Content Here||

[white marsh]

|| on both side I think?

[frozen vault]

l test l

😭

[median brook]

2 of them

[white marsh]

Double

[frozen vault]

[wary dune]

||testing testing||

[frozen vault]

😦

i? or L

[white marsh]

No space

[median brook]

Neither haha

[wary dune]

okay .. || before and || after with no spaces

[median brook]

It’s it’s own symbol

[wary dune]

grr

[median brook]

[white marsh]

It's the straight line in the symbols

[median brook]

Copy that

[frozen vault]

||test||

OHHH

XD

[median brook]

There you go!

That’s very considerate btw

[frozen vault]

||but in it takes two i almost cried when we have to kill the elephant|| 😦

[median brook]

Omg that chapter was

[frozen vault]

If someone hasnt tried playing It takes two I HIGHLY recommend the game

[median brook]

Ditto

[frozen vault]

it is one of the best game out there

[white marsh]

It's out of my price range :')

[frozen vault]

only 30$ i think

if im not mistaken

[median brook]

Sweet talk someone who has it, and download the free version cause only 1 person has to buy it

[white marsh]

I'm Asian.... Aka quadruple that number on the currency

[frozen vault]

Oh, i can play it with u if u have playstation

i have the game

Just let me know lol

[median brook]

I was genuinely shocked and like faith in humanity restored when I found out they went with that payment option. To let just 1 person buy it and the other gets to join for free

[frozen vault]

yeah

u know the sad thing? me n my friend both bought it cuz we didn't know lol

we found out after we finished the game lol

[median brook]

I mean I’d say worth it xD

[frozen vault]

its 100% worth the money

no regrets

[median brook]

Definitely a highlight of a rough year

[wary dune]

yeah that sort of thing is what I would do .. if I ever finish any of my game ideas

[frozen vault]

It got nominated as GOTY so

[median brook]

I’m just too used to the corporate greed of the giants, you know? So seeing someone not charge 59.99 + all the extras, was a nice change of pace

[frozen vault]

im anticipating it to win

Dude ps5 games are 69.99

LOL

n i bought 3 of them

[median brook]

Depends on region, yours is $ right?

[frozen vault]

dollars

usa 😦

[median brook]

Euro is lower, that’s why

My 59.99 is your 69.99

[frozen vault]

😭 i envy that

[median brook]

I mean it’s the same price xD just converted

[white marsh]

cries in that would be over 200 over here

[median brook]

1 euro is like 1.3 dollars or something, I haven’t checked conversions in a while

In my own currency I pay 599 for a new game

[frozen vault]

honey whts ur currency?

[white marsh]

Malaysian ringgit at the moment

[frozen vault]

ah idk the prices over there

[median brook]

Where is it they use Yen? Is that China?

[white marsh]

1 dollar US = around 4 rm

[rigid bridge]

Yen is Japan's currency

[median brook]

Thank you Kaede

[frozen vault]

lol

[median brook]

There’s way to many currencies to keep track of I swear

I can barely memorize the conversion of 4

[white marsh]

Maybe someday in the future there will be a universal currency all over the world

[frozen vault]

there wont sadly

countries wont have it cuz of selfishness and greed

[median brook]

You ever stop to think about that every movie EVER that we picture aliens, they’re all one people? But we’re not?

We’re too busy arguing

[white marsh]

I know right

For all we know, aliens have a rainbow spectrum of colors compared to human brown shades

[median brook]

Take us to your leader!
Okay which one of the 207 countries leader?

[white marsh]

Ah yes that too

[median brook]

Or did you like mean councils cause then there’s like 5000 of them

[white marsh]

XD

[median brook]

And thus, we will not have a world currency xD

[white marsh]

Technically we already do kinda

It's called gold

[median brook]

I mean that’s a fair point

[frozen vault]

Simple answer is: everyone likes being different so no same currency

[white marsh]

No matter the currency it always has a set value

[median brook]

But it just isn’t traded as such xD

[white marsh]

Cause it's too heavy

[frozen vault]

but gold's prices fluctuates

[median brook]

So does the dollar

[frozen vault]

1 dollar will be 1 dollar but gold wont

[median brook]

To you a dollar is always a dollar but in the world it’s not

[frozen vault]

it changes everyday

true

if u look it like that

[white marsh]

Remember when black pepper was worth it's weight in gold?

[median brook]

To me a dollar today is worth 1.4 it may be worth 0.9 tomorrow

[frozen vault]

i mean that was long time ago

xD

[median brook]

I vote we make saffron the world currency

[frozen vault]

^

[white marsh]

Okay hear me out

[frozen vault]

thats too expensive

saffrons are hard af to cultivate

[white marsh]

We know there's theories that aliens existed on earth ages ago

[median brook]

But lightweight

[white marsh]

The whole pyramid stuff etc

[frozen vault]

still expensive lol

[white marsh]

Imagine they come back with old age knowledge

[frozen vault]

i mean i do believe in aliens

but not in milky way galaxy

[white marsh]

Goes to Walmart and tries to pay with a stack of black pepper

[frozen vault]

probably far way from this galaxy

[median brook]

Not believing in aliens makes you crazier than believing in them, in today’s day and age I’d say

[frozen vault]

I mean not really

i can baack up both of them

[white marsh]

"What do you mean this isn't currency?! It's pepper! It's worth at least 34 ounces of gold"

[median brook]

It’s kind of naive to think we’re the only planet in the whole universe with life

[frozen vault]

humans came to be by accidents

the chances of having "humans" or any type of life form is too small

like wayyyyyyyyyy too little

but there are chance

thats the thing

[white marsh]

I think not on the same level as humans, maybe on a far distant star but not nearby

Most likely we can find alien bacteria

[frozen vault]

like any type of lifeform that intake O2 and etc

ys

thats more natural way of thinkin

[white marsh]

We know there are bacteria that can survive conditions on earth like in volcanoes and stuff
They can probably survive on a harsh planet
Plus not all bacteria need oxygen

[median brook]

We already have found micro organisms iirc

We know of at least 7 EVO planets

[white marsh]

I know
But from bacteria evolves more

[frozen vault]

i mean nothing is impossible, we just haven't found the possibilities of that "impossible" feats yet so 😛

[median brook]

Hubble doing it’s work and then some

[white marsh]

They said they found water on Mars right?
Who knows, maybe an underground lake somewhere has Martian algae

[median brook]

They found traces

[frozen vault]

they found traces yeah

i mean living in mars wont happen in our lifetime

[median brook]

They have however now produced the first oxygen atom on Mars

[white marsh]

Pretty sure oxygen atom already existed on Mars

[median brook]

Man made oxygen

[white marsh]

O2 gas on the other hand, is a whole new thing

[frozen vault]

i like how this conversation was about games n now its about outer space LOL

[median brook]

It do be like that sometimes xD

[white marsh]

What would aliens think of our video games

"Why does this game have you killing the Xlotls? They are the most peaceful alien spaces on this side of the Galaxy"

[median brook]

I didn’t mean they put the first atom on Mars I mean the first man made oxygen atom on Mars was made ^^

[frozen vault]

bro if aliens saw the dumb shit humans are doing, we going extinct the next day

[white marsh]

Humans are space orcs covers that pretty well

[median brook]

Why does your race want a game called “kill all humans”?

And why is that alien green

[frozen vault]

^ exactly

LOOOOL

[white marsh]

XD

[frozen vault]

like" lets fulfill their wish"

[white marsh]

I wonder how they will react to wrestling and other fighting sports

[median brook]

https://tenor.com/view/star-wars-visible-confusion-confused-gif-14771834

Probably like this

[white marsh]

Though personally

I think aliens will be more terrified of dolphins

[frozen vault]

i mean it would be dream come true to see other kind of lifeform from outer space but eh

[median brook]

OH, speaking of aliens, you know what else is a bit weird?

[frozen vault]

honey whats ur backing on that?

[white marsh]

Humans at least have a sense of morality and ethics
Dolphins are plain psychopaths

[median brook]

Oh that’s why I associate more with dolphins

[frozen vault]

.

[white marsh]

They are one of the only animals, besides humans, that kill for sport

At least as far as I remember

[frozen vault]

i mean compared to humans its acceptable

ppl do say, humans are the cancer to earth

[median brook]

They’re also the Ehm, only species that have.. birds and bees, for fun

[wary dune]

really .. I just assumed it was defensive or for consumption

[median brook]

Other than us

[white marsh]

Nah dolphins are some of the worst animals on earth

They do some pretty messed up stuff

[median brook]

I think we can safely say humans are worse xD

[frozen vault]

i find them pretty adorable lol

[median brook]

OMG did you see that they’re producing mechanical dolphins to use in zoos?!

[frozen vault]

^

[white marsh]

Hasn't nature taught you anything?
If it has a pretty exterior, it's probably poisonous/dangerous

[median brook]

As to not having captured ones

[frozen vault]

What?!

i did not know that wait is that true?

[median brook]

They’ve made prototypes and they’re like $5MIL each but genuinely look it up

[frozen vault]

i need sources of this

[median brook]

I’ll get some hold on

[white marsh]

So heres something I've been thinking

What if humans killed the cure for cancer ages ago?

[frozen vault]

i mean what type of cancer cure?

like all?

or just one

[white marsh]

I mean generally
Or not cancer, maybe some other disease

[median brook]

There’s a couple on here: https://www.insider.com/video-realistic-26-million-robotic-dolphin-swims-round-pool-animatronic-2020-7

[white marsh]

But like. Think about it. Every medicine we have now comes from some kind of bacteria/fungus/etc that's processed

[frozen vault]

ok give me like 5 min imma read this article real quick

[white marsh]

But humans are also responsible for mass extinction of other species

Okay

[frozen vault]

n i'll get back on that

ok so

in the video the dolphin looks real but someone is controlling them

im guessing they wont have it automatic?

someone HAS to controll them

and they cost way more than real dolphin

[median brook]

Yeah they’re remote controlled according to the company

[gaunt belfry]

https://tenor.com/view/moose-canada-run-me-snow-gif-7820528

[white marsh]

Maybe automatic it just keeps swimming randomly
But controlling means it can do other stuff to interact with the audience?

[median brook]

I mean currently yeah, bout 4 times but “life span” is longer

[frozen vault]

My only concern is why not just have real dolphin and have them mate

and reproduce offspring

[white marsh]

Two things

[frozen vault]

thats better imo but hey wht do i know

[median brook]

For the reason that it’s not an optimal life and they don’t live as long

[white marsh]

Genetic diversity
And swimming range

[frozen vault]

i mean do u wanna see a fake or real

[median brook]

I don’t really care

[frozen vault]

i feel like they should tell their guest like hey this is a fake

[median brook]

If I want real I’d go to the ocean

[white marsh]

If you consistently breed captive dolphins you'll have a much smaller pool of genetics, so they get sick easier or are born with defects

[frozen vault]

Still this project of making artifical animal looks really cool

[white marsh]

And dolphins have huge swim range

[frozen vault]

true honey

tats a good point

[white marsh]

I know orcas consistently travel from Atlantic to Antarctic throughout the year

[median brook]

Like certain zoos hold animals that may be going extinct or what not as well, to save them but then release them back to the wild later

But captivity for captivities sake isn’t the life for certain animals

[white marsh]

Being trapped in a tiny swimming in comparison would be a nightmare

Another thing is pods

Dolphins, like humans are social
Captivity means separating them from their pods

[median brook]

Probably why they live shorted in captivity than wild

[white marsh]

This I'm okay with.
Captivity for protection, like with the African rhinos is good.

[frozen vault]

i just hope they put like a statement in the brochure saying hey this is a robotic dolphin n not real but has the qualities of a dolphin

[median brook]

Yeah exactly, it’s for a good cause not just “hey look” xD

[frozen vault]

otherwise i dont think the ppl will like that

[raw fjord]

Hence why there are zoos that have animals that will never be able to return to the wild because of a disorder or defect, Human interfearance or threat to their life, and so on

[frozen vault]

^ ik 😦

that is tragic

[median brook]

I think the last quote was quite good, we spend so much effort and time on making virtual realities to disappear too.. what harm is it making a “fake” dolphin

Everything else we do is fake

[frozen vault]

i say this while i want shark fin soup 😦

[white marsh]

Honestly I'm confused about one thing

Why haven't people made VR zoos yet?

[frozen vault]

true i cant argue that lol

[white marsh]

Doing AI has to be easier than making a whole robot

[frozen vault]

Honey cuz no companies had that idea before lol

n u cant feel the animal

[median brook]

Problem with AI is it’s only ever as smart as the people around it

[frozen vault]

n it would mean ppl have to buy VR sets

[white marsh]

That's true sadly

[frozen vault]

which costs more than buying zoo tickets

[white marsh]

Yeah but unlike zoo tickets it's a one time purchase

Oh wait

[raw fjord]

Vr also can mess with people

[frozen vault]

it wont lol

[white marsh]

That would be bad for zoo companies

[frozen vault]

they will charge everytime

because money

[frozen vault]

and this too

[white marsh]

Normally I would be pissed by that but they do need money to feed and care for the animals

[frozen vault]

mhm

[white marsh]

One thing that I wish all countries would do tho
Is have a dedicated sanctuary for their local wildlife

[median brook]

Sweden has so many reservoirs

[raw fjord]

On the topic of vr, I'm still angry with this discovery. That you are still near sided visually in vr...

[median brook]

National parks etc etc

[median brook]

Wait what?

[white marsh]

Well VR tech is still new

[frozen vault]

i wanna be like KIRITO from SAO GIVE ME THE HEADGEAR!!

[median brook]

Just Jumanji me to the zoo

[frozen vault]

^ lol

[white marsh]

Jumanji zoo would be great lol

That wouldn't be VR, it would be AR

[raw fjord]

I took my glasses off testing out a vr headset in my school a couple years back and I discovered that I was still unable to see far away so I had to wear my glasses with the headset. The disappointment is still immeasurable

[white marsh]

Wouldn't mess with people too

Can be done in zoos and stuff and cost less than robots
But yeah, you wouldn't feel the animal there

[frozen vault]

they will fix VR, VRs are still very new

[median brook]

The next evolution, we got VR now get ready for AR

[white marsh]

There are already some AR apps

[median brook]

If anything it’s realistic..? /j /s

[white marsh]

Sad.

[raw fjord]

Yeah but I was under the impression I would have perfect vision like a video game screen and I would be able to see things without glasses XD

[white marsh]

If only

[median brook]

We’re making a lot of progress with neuro-interactive things, one of these days we’ll have black mirror gaming

[white marsh]

But I don't think a VR machine can automatically correct vision

[raw fjord]

There is a way to get prescription lenses so that is possible but I assume it's just as expensive as the equipment itself

[white marsh]

Unless maybe they add a system where you can type in what your eyesight is currently like and they adjust everything using that

[median brook]

Very likely, at least at first

[median brook]

That’d be hella expensive to develop too, need opticians for that

HAHA you know the start screen where you set your brightness in some games?

You put in the VR and you hear a voice: is it better now, or now? Now? Or now?

[white marsh]

Rather than SAO headgear
Have you guys seen Accel world?

[median brook]

And the filter changes haha

[white marsh]

I think that would be more amazing

[median brook]

I have not seen Accel, what is?

[white marsh]

Having a neurochip that connects to wifi, games, even corrects vision

[frozen vault]

Im not too big into anime so idk what accel world has lol

[raw fjord]

Accel world, where it's neural implants?

[median brook]

Oh so it’s black mirror, ish? Chips that can upload you to games etc

[white marsh]

Think SAO but fighting game
And one of the main girls looks like the daughter of Kirito and Asuna so there's some speculation that the two anime are in the same universe but never confirmed

[median brook]

What is SAO..?

[white marsh]

Sword art online....

[median brook]

Shots fired?

[frozen vault]

! LOL

[raw fjord]

XD

[white marsh]

XD

[frozen vault]

gotcha

[median brook]

I never played it

[white marsh]

It's not exactly like Sao tho, since they aren't trapped inside the game itself

[median brook]

Kidding I know it’s a show

[white marsh]

Technically there's also SAO games too

[median brook]

But I never watched it

[frozen vault]

so whats the main idea of the show

[median brook]

Swords and art

Online classes

[frozen vault]

XD

wait

ur serious?

[raw fjord]

I watched the first few episodes and I didn't care much

[median brook]

I am very much not

[white marsh]

I personally really want to play Alfheim Online, I love the fairy aesthetics and avatars

[frozen vault]

i wanna play Horizon Zero Dawn 😦

but its comin out in feb 2022

[white marsh]

Have you guys seen Log Horizon?

[frozen vault]

no

[median brook]

Isn’t horizon zero dawn already out?

[frozen vault]

im talkin bout the sequel

[median brook]

OH

[frozen vault]

Horzion Forbidden west

[raw fjord]

Sword art online is basically a couple thousand players get stuck in a virtual game and if they die in the game they die in real life.

[median brook]

I got real confused there

[white marsh]

So....
Horizon One Dawn?

[median brook]

HAH

Horizon zero noon

[frozen vault]

Horzion Zero Dawn is my favorite game of all time 😉

[white marsh]

The only thing I know about that game is Aloy

[frozen vault]

Plat that game so fast

[white marsh]

And that's mostly cause of Genshin

[raw fjord]

I really want to play Horizon simply for the creatures

[median brook]

Isn’t it HZD where the rabbit gets shot with an arrow?

[frozen vault]

.

[white marsh]

No that's Until Dawn

[frozen vault]

Thats last of us

[raw fjord]

That's last of us

[white marsh]

Oop

[median brook]

Well shit

[frozen vault]

do ya'll own PlayStation?

[white marsh]

Nope

[median brook]

I own almost 10000 of them

So no one else can

[raw fjord]

I have a ps3 that's slowly dying

[frozen vault]

thats y 😦

[median brook]

(I do not own one or condone hoarding)

[white marsh]

We heard the sarcasm loud and clear lol

[frozen vault]

XD

[median brook]

Can’t be too careful

[raw fjord]

I personally prefer pc anyway over console

[white marsh]

Same

[median brook]

I mean you KNOW me, at this point, you know I say very sarcastic things xD

[white marsh]

Well mostly cause I only ever had a Gameboy and that's it. Everything else I play on PC

[frozen vault]

I own playstation n PC

i usually play on playstaion but PC here n there

[median brook]

I got a GameCube in my closet still

[frozen vault]

😮

[white marsh]

I used to have one of those really old connect to tv consoles that no longer exist

[median brook]

Ooooooo

[white marsh]

I don't even remember what it was called

But I do remember the duck hunting game on it for some reason

[raw fjord]

I have a new 2ds

[median brook]

I didn’t even know they had a name to be honest xD

[frozen vault]

i stil have the original ds

😄

[median brook]

That damn dog always laughing at me

[white marsh]

XD

[median brook]

I got a pink 3ds so..

[frozen vault]

.

very manly of u

[median brook]

Like neon pink

[frozen vault]

very

[white marsh]

I played pokemon on emulators for as long as I remember
They literally sold the games on CDs when I was a kid

[raw fjord]

I used to have a regular ds but the hinges broke, and then the screen broke, and then it died

[frozen vault]

i lost like 20 ds games so

i just put it in plastic bag n left it in my closet

[median brook]

Okay listen I was going on a 17 hour flight and I had nothing to do so spur of the moment like 4 hours before my flight I went to buy a 3DS but they were all sold out except 1, a pink one, so I said fuck it and grabbed it and 2 games and off I went xD

[raw fjord]

Y'know, that's fair

[white marsh]

I really badly want a switch but it's so damn expensive

[raw fjord]

Same, kind of...

[median brook]

Thank you, I thought so too xD

[median brook]

I said the same but then I met my gf and turns out she already had one so I dont need to buy one

This is my 2 step tutorial to getting a switch for free

[white marsh]

Lmao

[median brook]

Step 1. Find a person that has one
Step 2. Profit

[raw fjord]

Step 1: Leech off of your friend's Nintendo switch

Step 2: Profit

You had the same idea as me

[median brook]

Ayyyy great minds!

[raw fjord]

Yus!

[median brook]

Step 2 is ALWAYS “profit”

[frozen vault]

Lol

[median brook]

It’s like one of my favorite art comics of how to draw a tree in 2 steps

Step 1: draw a seed
Step 2: wait

[white marsh]

XD

You forgot to water the seed

[median brook]

Nah nah nature takes care of that

Just let the seed run it’s natural course

[frozen vault]

what if its a desert

._.

[white marsh]

Lol

Then it grows as a cactus

[frozen vault]

need water

[median brook]

Another favorite of mine is how to draw a rose
Step 1 draw a lettuce
Step 2 color it red
Oh don’t know how to draw a lettuce? Just draw a rose and color it green

[white marsh]

Pfft

[frozen vault]

https://tenor.com/view/think-about-it-use-your-brain-use-the-brain-think-brain-gif-7914082

[white marsh]

Big brain arts lol

[median brook]

There’s a whole page for comics like that and I love it, it’s “incomplete art tutorials”

It’s like how to draw a horse, draw a circle and some rectangles, now draw the rest of the horse

[raw fjord]

My step by step tutorial on how to draw anatomy from personal experience:
Step 1: Draw scribbles
Step 2: RAGE

[white marsh]

How to draw a zebra

1. Draw a horse
2. Add stripes

[raw fjord]

🦓

[median brook]

Don’t know how to draw a horse? Draw a zebra and take away the stripes

[white marsh]

Lol

[median brook]

Like wow thanks

[median brook]

For real though I’d never attempt any anatomy without reference..

[raw fjord]

Even with a reference it's difficult for me XD

[median brook]

Anatomy is haaaaaard

[white marsh]

What is anatomy?

[median brook]

You’d think after looking at people quite literally all my life I’d know what they look like?

[white marsh]

I just draw blobs

[median brook]

I mean let’s be real humans are just blobs, really

[white marsh]

XD

[raw fjord]

I can confirm, I am not a ditto

[wary dune]

How to draw a swan ....

1. Draw the number 2 ....
2. Fill out the rest of the swan

[white marsh]

Lmaoo

That was a good one

[wary dune]

that is exactly how I draw swans rofl

[median brook]

That sounds like what a ditto would say..

[raw fjord]

[median brook]

No no you’re doing it wrong this is helpful

[frozen vault]

ok seriously who can draw here?

i can't draw for shit

[median brook]

I’d like to think I can xD

[frozen vault]

i can't even draw a nice cyclohexene

[wary dune]

thats fine .. neither can I

[raw fjord]

[white marsh]

Ditto are literal doppelgangers
But
They say seeing your doppelganger means you will die soon
So is ditto an omen in the Pokemon world?

[median brook]

Chapaa documentary
With David Attenborough voice

[frozen vault]

^

GOD

[median brook]

How much of the Palia budget do we need to make this happen?

[white marsh]

"And here we have the wild Chapaa, foraging in the bush over there"

[median brook]

AMELIA I NEED TO KNOW

[frozen vault]

BRO OUR PLANET in netflix

that documentary sells it

[white marsh]

I've watched it like 3 times

[frozen vault]

i forgot how many times i watched that

its too good

[median brook]

I think Sir David has to say like 3 words and the documentary is sold

[frozen vault]

so tranquil

[median brook]

Like you hear it’s him and you just know it’s gonna be good

[frozen vault]

fr

[white marsh]

Honestly, if David Attenborough did a series on video game wildlife that would be hilarious

Imagine him doing one on the Subnautica leviathans

...

Heck this suddenly sounds like a fun idea I want to do that

[raw fjord]

Speaking of documentaries, who saw the alien documentary talking about realistic alien worlds on netflix?

[white marsh]

I haven't seen that yet

What's it called?

[frozen vault]

alien worlds on netflix is good also

pretty interesting

im on Eden

havent finished it

[median brook]

OMG PLEASE YES

[raw fjord]

Subnautica.... when I get a good enough pc I will buy that game. Forget below zero, I want the pure ocean experience

[median brook]

Below zero was quite the journey as well though I’d say

For different reasons

[white marsh]

I play it on laptop... It works kinda, but I have the lowest settings so it doesn't kill my laptop

[median brook]

Below zero, I would say did as well as you can when you make a sequel so something as remarkable as subnautica

[white marsh]

Which one do you have Berry?

Subnautica or BZ?

[median brook]

I got both

[white marsh]

Ohh nice

I only have BZ

[median brook]

How do you find it as a standalone?

[white marsh]

Like it. I always liked the artic nature shows more than the tropic ones. The ice over the ocean adds an extra creepiness factor

[median brook]

Cause there’s a lot of intertwined knowledge between the games, if you get the first one you’ll see what I mean, you’ll recognize a lot of the names etc

[median brook]

How far have you got? ^^ so I don’t, ruin something

[white marsh]

I went some ways when it was early access, but I haven't played in a while and I know a lot changed

Last time I played the sister wasn't missing for one

She was up in the Vesper talking to Robin

Wait was that the name? I forget

[median brook]

Far as I remember it’s Robin

[white marsh]

Yeah ok

[median brook]

Yeah no it’s, almost been entirely revamped since early access

[white marsh]

Yeah I know

Already started a new save

Still exploring the beginner area

I just need one more of the fragment for the sea glide so I can go deeper safely

[median brook]

Not gonna give anything away ^^ just that I’m confident you’ll like what’s ahead

[white marsh]

Thanks 😊

[median brook]

The revamp was a good move, I’ll say that much. They really upped the quality of it with that

[white marsh]

I agree but I kinda miss that it's more like the first Subnautica now. I liked that we had someone looking out for us up in the sky this time

But the missing sister is a nice plothook

On the other hand tho
I don't understand why there's fragments around now since there wasn't a crash or anything nearby

It kinda breaks the immersion a tiny bit but not too much

[median brook]

The crash happened before BZ and Alterra had facilities on that side of the planet as well for a long time

[white marsh]

Ahh okay

I didn't get to that point in the story then

[median brook]

It’s the intertwined info I was talking about, part of that comes from the first one

[raw fjord]

Personally I loved the first one because it's literally a 'you crashed and you have to survive' scenario

With a underlying story to top it off

[median brook]

BZ follows that, the first one you crash and the second they go back on purpose to look into it more, basically. That’s as detailed as I’ll go without risking anything

[white marsh]

Survive, find a cure, help a dying momma leviathan hatch her babies, save the world from nuclear radiation, and make it back just in time for crippling debt

[median brook]

I loved every minute of both play throughs, I’d hate to spoil it for someone

[raw fjord]

Fair

[median brook]

I mean pretty much xD

[white marsh]

I feel a bit sad for the the ship that came to rescue the player tho

In the first one

They tried to help and all died

[raw fjord]

Kaboom

[median brook]

Planet go pew pew

[white marsh]

Lol

[median brook]

Or, actually, that laser really did go BRRRRRR

[white marsh]

The first one also had a growing sense of despair

Every other pod you find, you find out you were too late

[median brook]

But yeah basically the first game takes place and you make it out, and report back, then some time passes and Alterra sends people to investigate the planet, then BZ happens when you go to said planet to find your sister

That’s why there’s still parts everywhere

[white marsh]

The beasts got them, or they died from hunger, or from the disease, or from the radiation

[median brook]

It was a nice way to always give the player hope and take it away again xD

[white marsh]

Yeah
