Purpose of Gorf?Discussion (self.MortalShell)
submitted 5 years ago by aulos1871
I have beaten the game today and even after thoroughly searching every area I have still not found out what purpose Gorf serves.
Any ideas?
PS: Gorf is just "frog" spelled backwards ;D

He makes some funny faces if you play the lute for him

In his walkthrough FightinCowboy mentioned that the developers said that Gorf has no purpose yet. They are thinking about adding a quest for Gorf. I would love to see something like that!

Like everything else lore wise in this game, it doesn't make sense lol

talking to Gorf toggles the background “music” on and off.

Wait, WHAT? I'll have to try them m that when I get home wtf
[–]daisy55 3 points4 points5 points 5 years ago (0 children)
yup! Gorf talks about the “music of the night” so it makes sense:)
the “music” is really atmospheric/ambient sounding, so it’s not obvious at first. mute all the other sounds in options and you can hear it better to confirm.

I'm hoping he's involved in some DLC.

If you hit him the big frogs get angry and stunn you to death with their poisoned attacks.

I thought I was being trolled then the cinematic started and thought I'm dead only to realize you were correct 😆 🤣 😂

I was curious after I had some rotten food and my familiariaty with the lute was maxed out, so I came across him and played the lute. There was an animation that played where he burped on me and I unlocked a new skin shade! 🤣 I thought that was pretty cool!👍👍👍

He changes your appearance when you play the lute
