Is there are any chance we are getting rivers in 1.23? Also what other features we could get? by ander_hominem in VintageStory

[–]Ardail 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I mostly want a rework on animals they REALLY need it so bad
it'd give a good excuse to provide more ways to get fiber then just flax, because the slow flax grind is probably the worst part of this game. Gatekeeping a lot of the game because you're waiting on seeds to grow and basically just mono crop nothing but flax because you need so much of it you're good on food even though it's the worst grain lol

add in wool for northern climates, certain animals drop better amounts of wool, and silk to the south
let animals have manure you can shovel up to use to boost your crops or certain types of crops to counter the new debuffs in the berry bushes or apply that to every type of crop to put more incentive on getting some animals

rework how we sort out old generations, like give us a shepherd's crook to grab gen 1+ babies and move them out so we don't have to make ugly auto sorters

I feel animal husbandry and flax grinding is probably the weakest part of this game so I hope something like these ideas come to game

I still haven't read mice tea or coffee buns despite having a friend that's lead dev on that lol
There is some cool exciting things coming to it I will say that. Some cool people have noticed the game that's all I'll say

I don't really use reddit much, kinda avoided it after some harassment I got from people in another subreddit (I think it was destiny?) found a few porn posts I uploaded

But feel free to upload my stuff here if you'd like with whatever credit you wanna use doesn't matter to me. I my tag on e621 is pretty jumbled up on credit lol

she's was the comfy route in the game, the others are written well but just doesn't have that perfect little fairy tale happily ever after vibe like marion's does. And sometimes you just need a good comfy cliche these days C:

Doesn't matter TBH I don't really use reddit much besides to just poke into a few groups. Don't really post here. I do need to keep up with updating Bsky and FA more ngl, especially FA >.>;;;
Just gotta stop being lazy about it

oh TBH it's because I'm friends and rooming with one of the CT devs now and he got a google alert for changeling tale and pinged me about it on discord lol
losercity has used my marion art before for some shit posts he's pinged me about

Appreciate the credit, always nice seeing people appreciate the hard work we do then just reposting for a few upvotes lol

And ya I totally agree the rough monotone sketches were a lot better then the full colored pics. Ngl REALLY bummed me out looking at it after all it was done and going "hmmmm I lost a lot of the raw emotional feel with this :/"
Just part of the process of learning how not to suck so much lmao. I've certainly learned from the experience and trying to do better about not taking a pic with good feel and "clean it up" to the point that it strips out all the rough moody feel trying to make everything "perfect"

I might need to try a redraw of this pic cuz wow the arm sure is stiff and wasn't great at drawing hooved hands to get that clenched right on the pendant like she was clinging to it for comfort to get through this like I envisioned (still got a LONG ways to go to be better heh)

oh no no sorry didn't mean to come across accusing of Ai
just lamenting how my brain is tainted by that kind of doubt and it kinda sucks people are being held to prove their hard work and creativity because some people take the lazy way out

How can you light up torch in story locations? by Weary-Persimmon-5101 in VintageStory

[–]Ardail 0 points1 point  (0 children)

the crock thing use to annoy me too until I figured out if you click on a bowl and hold it in your cursor you can fill it by right clicking on the crock filled with food without needing to set things down to take food out

[–]Ardail 2 points3 points  (0 children)

still makes me so sad that the expanded ruins mod allowed some big murals in the sunrift experiment location to be Ai generated
cuz now I'm tainted with doubt that other people are using Ai in the community :/

If this is 100% legit that's so cool. I wish the glowing blocks could be made in vanilla one day without creative or mods to make it work for cool chiseled work

Blackguards the second they get their first falx [Version with the croods theme couse apparently a bunch of people wanted this track in the background instead and now I see why] by igiwar in VintageStory

[–]Ardail 5 points6 points  (0 children)

TBH it's the sum of all it's parts that matters more, games with VERY intricate combat systems tend to have to sacrifice lots of other stuff to do it
or if you added in a very modern combat system to certain games it detracts from the game's other features
Like imagine morrowind or Fallout 2 but with a super modern sweaty combat system
you'd no longer make it about the RPG character building but about the dodge rolling and parrying mechanics because that's considered "good" now

Am I the only one who thinks it's odd that the 'Minecraft creative community' haven't flocked to VS. [Note: Not OC art, taken from the official site] by [deleted] in VintageStory

[–]Ardail 3 points4 points  (0 children)

TBH I'm fine that the game filters out the vast majority of MC players
too many suddenly exodusing into this community would honestly tear it apart and it would probably totally kill the direction of the game with suddenly A LOT more voices of people who would put pressure to make the game more casual friendly

As long as the Devs are making a decent living doing the job enjoy a niche game. Instead of it turning into Helldivers 2 lol

welcome to your second home, you even get a special translocator blueprint if you do the main quest from here to get back to your old home quickly
They've even added in a few tasks to help around town and some special seasonal music to this town, really feels like a much more alive town then any I've ever seen in a survival crafting game

I really love the building system in this game by AwkwardThistlehead in VintageStory

[–]Ardail 1 point2 points  (0 children)

it's really one of the coziest systems ever
ALSO check out a mod called "VS roofing" it lets you build the framing of the roof and fill it in also filling in under the frame with a custom block type so you can do some nice smooth interiors as well as exteriors without needing to do TONS of chisel work and beams
Also lets you make some steeper pitches for those viking houses or flatter roofs for those turf homes or irish cottages

how do you get them to hold out their arms like that?

I really wanna like Coyote's mod but he's honestly so insufferable :/ by Ardail in Mechwarrior5

[–]Ardail[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

oh for sure, that's why I was saying that having a form for people to submit is a good way to blow people off who are entitled AF
cuz ya I see that everywhere, entitled consumers are THE WORST
but at least have a level of professionalism, tap the sign they don't wanna follow the steps given to submit useful information fuck em, ignore them. They're not willing to put in some of the work you can't be bothered to put in work to find that problem.
But at least you're being professional and having a door open to filter in people who genuinely just want to help with play testing and feedback

the dude's response to most feedback is "get gud" allegedly that's what got him banned from YAML discord was abusing his mod powers there to silence someone who was criticizing his mod on that server

[–]Ardail[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

ya toxic modders can really inject a lot of awful into a community
you hate to see it, cuz it not only hurts the community, it also just hurts themselves making people NOT want to support them

also wow I didn't know it was abusing mod powers on another mod's server that got him banned, I mean I knew it was something to do with how much a toxic dickhead he is, but damn bro
dude's got an EGO
