Butch:
OK. More mushrooms/jellyfish? Wish we could have jumped on them?
Problem with mid air grapples is what happens if you fail them? The more I play, the more I think that your "dying" there was a glitch. This game seems pretty hell bent on keeping you alive.
Feminina:
That cave section was pretty. Very stark contrast to the blazing sun of the last one. Feels dim and cool, and then the many interesting glowing things. They have a lot of very undersea-reminiscent designs for creatures that seem to be fully adapted to (extremely) dry land. Makes one wonder if the disappearance of water was so slow that seawater creatures actually adapted over millennia to float in air instead (but without significant change to their outward appearance), or if they were always land creatures and there were sea versions that just died out, or what.
We shall never know, as this is not a top interest of the game itself. One feels the game itself is really just trying to set a mood, and the air/land sea-creatures are just wonderfully evocative of a watery world that no longer exists, and there you have it. Which is fine. It really does set a mood!
Just don't think too hard about it.
Probably a wizard did it.
Butch:
But...but...thinking too hard is what we DO!
Feminina:
Oh, I would never say we should stop thinking too hard. Just that in some cases I'm not sure it will be possible for hard thought to result in any conclusive answers.
Obviously, lack of conclusive evidence does not mean it's not possible to speculate for fun and profit.
Well, not really for profit.
Loothound:
Well, we'll need to overthink the wizard then.
"Hmmm, did you NEED to do the polymorph there? Seems like Alter Self would have worked just as well…"
I didn't mean like a free jumping leap type of grapple, Butch. This game definitely doesn't want you to do anything like dying. That would spoil the wonderful mood. I just meant trying to swing to something hanging in mid air. I didn't word that well. It's pretty damn hot in here, and I'm just about done…
Butch:
Is it supposed to cool off and rain again soon?
On one hand, I'm so over rain. On the other hand, I'm so over Mrs. McP telling me to water.
Conundrums.
Loothound:
Fair. Just don't forget to booby trap the hose at some point.
Butch:
When she least expects it.......
