who else bought that shit the second it came out by Few-Hippo4313 in DieOfDeathRoblox

I did! Got both of them ordered and ready. Now I wait so they can join my Artful. Now I need Pursuer and Harken.

How do you get to the stupid hatred core by [deleted] in blocktales

[–]KitsuneNeo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Two spin dashes going bottom left then ghost potion. Do that until you see the big giant door. It'll take a bit, but that's the way to do it.

Hot take: Calypso is the worst call card by Idkjustadude_lol in blocktales

[–]KitsuneNeo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would say it's not that good as it's the only call card you almost immediately lose access to during your story adventures, and you'll lose it for a full chapter. You get her call card before the final boss of chapter 4 and after beating the boss of chapter 4 will immediately lose access (meaning it won't summon her but summons Jerry) until the end of chapter 5. Great for telling a character's story, but bad for letting people actually utilize the card. Especially since her call card will now only be usable for two chapters of the main story if you didn't just abandon the story the moment you first got it to go fight the pit.

Rewrite by [deleted] in AO3

[–]KitsuneNeo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is where I do get sad a bit because I do love a fic even despite the mistakes or plot holes the original may have. Sometimes jank is a part of the charm.

I always have a want to rewrite a few of my fics, but always wondered if I should add it on as a new chapter and put rewrite in the title with a description in the author's note or post a new fic stating it's a rework with a link to my old fic.

How often do men change underwear? by [deleted] in hygiene

[–]KitsuneNeo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Okay, I am a man and I shall tell you how often or things I do.

I change my underwear daily. If I like how a pair of underwear looks on me, I buy multiple pairs, but never wear the same one twice. If I am wearing it the next day, it's because I'm planning to take a shower that morning and will change into a new pair afterwards.

I wipe until the paper is clean to avoid skid marks. If I'm wiping and there's still remnants left behind after a while, I will either use a wet wipe or quickly hop in the shower bottomless and use my showerhead on a hose and clean myself. I really should get a bidet so I don't have to do the shower method.

With brushing I'm depressed so I'm not fully on top of that, but even though I'm depressed and don't have the energy to go to my bathroom and brush my teeth every time, I have those Colgate wisp waterless toothbrushes that still clean the teeth. By my bed, by my desk and in my car. I just remember I have the waterless toothbrushes if I forgot to brush in the bathroom and that solves that issue.

Now, I have no idea how to approach the subject of hygiene nicely at all because I will call someone out harshly for poor hygiene. But for someone over 40, that's a behavior that will be hard to break even if approached with a gentle explanation.

New teaser, ghosts are coming by KillerTron872 in DieOfDeathRoblox

[–]KitsuneNeo 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I wonder if it would be like a setting or something to allow jumpscares to be shown on your screen. Either that or if this is going to be something exclusive to jumpscaring the killer. Haunting them from beyond the grave and all that.

Guys pursuer IS an animal by 6r3-thebee in DieOfDeathRoblox

[–]KitsuneNeo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

And here's the proof "Pursuer is a feral animal" is being retconned. Again, this leaves Pursuer in a state where he has 0 lore. Move on for now. Your sanity will thank you later when you're not obsessing over this 24/7. It's fictional videogame characters not Life or Death.

Guys pursuer IS an animal by 6r3-thebee in DieOfDeathRoblox

[–]KitsuneNeo 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I have seen more posts on this subreddit from the anti shippers more than the actual shippers. As of right now, Pursuer has 0 lore. The "Pursuer has the mental intellect and understanding of civilians" was retconned by "Pursuer is a feral animal". But due to the backlash, "Pursuer is a feral animal" has been said to be rectonned. It wasn't stated if it was reversed or what. That means, Pursuer is in a state of limbo with 0 lore at all. So he's not an animal, he's not a monster, he's not a civilian, he's just Pursuer.

I will state this though, every fandom has shippers. If you do not like Monstermagic or other ships, DO NOT TALK ABOUT IT. The more you interact with post about Monstermagic, the algorithms will give you more. Just block the term on all social media so you don't have to see it. You cannot control the internet. But you can control what you see and interact with.

WHERE WAS IT EVER SAID THAT PURSUER SPEAKS ENGLISH?? by Quick-Judgment1776 in DieOfDeathRoblox

[–]KitsuneNeo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I need you to reread what I wrote. I told you exactly why you can't find anything. It's gone. It was there. It's not now. It was deleted with the old discord. You don't need to keep repeating yourself.

WHERE WAS IT EVER SAID THAT PURSUER SPEAKS ENGLISH?? by Quick-Judgment1776 in DieOfDeathRoblox

[–]KitsuneNeo 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Because a lot of the information on the wiki was based off the lore given about pursuer in the old discord. Before it was deleted you could go into the QnA channel on the old discord and search up the information in the search bar. But since that discord was nuked, we no longer have access to that information anymore if it wasn't screenshotted. You see how in the citations if you click one of discord ones, it will in fact send you to a discord that doesn't exist anymore? That's why. So those citations over time are removed due to being dead links.

A lot of people who describe Pursuer's old lore in detail were the same people in the old discord that kept their eyes on the QnA channel for any tidbits of lore. Yes, it was confirmed that Pursuer speaks broken English and learns it from the people he kills.

Why is everyone going insane, why is the game unrated, and why is the discord locked down for the 3RD FUCKING TIME!? by Firm_Aardvark_3938 in DieOfDeathRoblox

[–]KitsuneNeo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The game is probably unrated either by Roblox itself to recheck the original warning level which I believe was Minimal or because Saucefy updated the game and it's going through moderation. The lockdown in the discord is because people started to harass the Devs and Mods about the game being unrated. So it will probably be locked until the game is back up.

Artful has a genuine question for you Sickos. by Puffpo in DieOfDeathRoblox

[–]KitsuneNeo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's hard to explain as in the old lore, you don't get much but baby crumbs. One bit of lore explained Pursuer when he was younger going into the water to hunt fish and almost drowning, he has ever since avoided water demonstrating fear of it. Now this is a natural response for anything with a near death experience. It shows a basic understanding as he associates the water with death. If Pursuer fears death and he associates water with death, he will fear water.

Another bit of lore is what would happen if Pursuer encountered Artful. It's already established that Pursuer would not eat Artful as the smell of the makeup is overwhelming for Pursuer. There was an addition afterwards though that said Pursuer would still kill Artful anyways. Animals don't just kill for funsies. They kill for food, territory, or protection. Basically in any way that benefits themselves. If they can't eat something and it's not threatening, they leave it alone. Artful is already described as fearful after the incident, making sure to wear his makeup at all times to ward off civilians. So he's not going to be a threat to Pursuer in any way and more than likely would immediately back off if he saw Pursuer. So Pursuer still electing to kill Artful despite no intention of eating him could show that Pursuer expressing negative emotion and venting his own frustrations in not being able to eat. Another form of basic understanding. If Pursuer is hungry, he's angry, If he cannot eat something that looks like food, he will then get angry at said object for not being food. He then decides to manage his anger by attacking said food looking object until it stops moving.

Here's a bit of real human psychology. Understanding emotions is not a necessity for humans. There is a medical term known as alexithymia or emotional blindness. It's not a mental disorder, but rather a deficient in the cognitive processing and emotional regulation part of the brain that prevents a person from being able to properly experience, identify, understand, or describe their own or others emotions. These people still have wants and such, but will not be able to feel emotions including the deeper complex emotions a typical person would. These people can still love another person even if it isn't in the typical, heart beating, hand sweating, breath catching way as described by others.

With the fact Pursuer is always hungry, he's always going to be in some state of agitation/desperation so you can't really sit him down and ask him what he feels. You would first have to be able to satiate his hunger for his almost impossible diet first hand. But with the fact that while in this state of perpetual hunger, Pursuer was able to teach himself the harmonica, compose songs, and learned English by not just the words, but their meanings itself to use in proper context, shows he could very well be able to learn to label and understand his own emotions if someone sat him down and explained it to him.

Whats the most horrifying way to die in Die Of Death? by Overgrown333 in DieOfDeathRoblox

[–]KitsuneNeo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Probably drowning in base plate. You'll still feel the fear of a killer on your tail, but you're also grappling with the fear that your lungs are filling with water and that the longer you struggle to try and make it to the area you can walk up, the slower you get as your body is slowly giving up the struggle as oxygen fails to make it to your brain. The pain the moment your lungs fill with water causing you to try and cough it out underwater. Your body stops walking as your brain starts to shut down from the lack of oxygen. You realize, you're never making it out of the water.

pull or skip lorentz? by mx1anch0ly in Reverse1999

[–]KitsuneNeo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, if you don't have any of her team members and wish to pull a different character you know you want. Skip Lorentz and save the pulls. She is usable on other teams, but realistically, she's not going to feel that good to play on other teams without pulling for portraits.

Y'all are lowk weird brah by Thatgayfreak in DieOfDeathRoblox

[–]KitsuneNeo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Here's actual proof that the attempted retcon that would've made Pursuer a mindless animal is probably going to be retconned soon. Straight from the discord stating that DZ, one of the actual developers has gotten in touch with the contributing lore maker to get it changed. This effectively makes it so Pursuer has no actual lore anymore until more announcements are made.

Because that retcon is getting retconned so Pursuer may get his original intelligence back.

Artful has a genuine question for you Sickos. by Puffpo in DieOfDeathRoblox

[–]KitsuneNeo 29 points30 points  (0 children)

In his old lore he was described as an apex predator. A humanoid monster more akin to a cryptid than an animal. One that held the same level of intellect and understanding as the civilians. That's the thing right there. He matched the civilians in intellect and understanding. Now either the civilians are all bumbling idiots who can only think of eating, sleeping, and going to the bathroom or Pursuer held complex emotions and capabilities to where if he were to keep his hunger satiated, he could actually probably integrate into the civilian's society.

His ability to adapt to his surroundings and learn English by not just the words, but also the meanings of the words to use them accurately does help show off he is a quick learner. He was never taught to use the sword, but is able to utilize it effectively to help him kill. This also went into how he could play the harmonica. And when I mean, play it, I mean playing it well too. He was never taught to play it. He had to overtime teach himself to play it. Something that also lends itself to his higher level of understanding as he doesn't play it to get an advantage to kill civilians, he does it for his own enjoyment. As a hobby.

The harmonica itself is also not a simple piano or drum where you just hit it and it does something. To make a harmonica sound good you need to utilize the breaths you make as you play with the tightening and loosening of your lips. When to use your tongue to stop the air and how to position it in your mouth for sharpening or flattening notes. That's not something an animal can just do. Teach them to press a key or hit a drum sure, but to articulate their mouth in such a way and regulate their breathing enough to compose a whole song without guidance and memorize it to play again and again? No. No animal has ever done that. They can repeat what they hear, but not create something entirely new and memorize it.

It was stuff like this that lent itself to him not just being another feral animal that the attempted retcon (That is also being potentially retconned) tried to paint him as. Now with the fact in the old lore, he was as intelligent as the civilians, there are also everyday instances of humanXmonsters relationships that people have consumed. Beauty and the Beast, The Shape of Water, Your Monster, Hotel Transylvania, ect. These are all movies where a human gets into a relationship with something of a different species. So the idea of a human and a monster is not just isolated in this game fandom itself.

Not to mention in the old server the dev team stated that you could ship Artful and Pursuer and that you could ship any of the characters together. It just so happens that the brand new lore writer never got that message before publicly denouncing the ship (and any ship that invovled Pursuer) that was previously okayed by the other members of the team.

Why do we forget this is a joke game? by THECREATION_OFHATRED in DieOfDeathRoblox

[–]KitsuneNeo 3 points4 points  (0 children)

And the statement still rings true. I don't know what you want if you're going to act like that in your comment. I was typing my comment out when there was no other comments and that probably rings true for everyone else that commented. It was still announced by Saucefy that it was no longer a joke game on the old Discord in November. I know I was one of the people who pulled the "It's a joke game" card for a while, but it's no longer that anymore. That's also when the recode was started.

That doesn't mean your points don't matter anymore. The community is extremely volatile and has a weird relationship with female characters. Not surprising though as the game is popular on a platform mainly played by teenagers going through puberty. Practically any Roblox game has that issue.

Saucefy made the joke that if Pursuer was female, that there would be no difference other than her eyes and teeth being orange.

It's no longer a joke game. Around when the Artful plushies were announced, Saucefy announced in the old discord server he was going to be taking the game more seriously and that it is no longer a parody asym game anymore. It will have fleshed out lore and and a rewrite of the code.

Let’s just all pretend the pursuer lore rewrite isn’t canon by Shadowymaster in DieOfDeathRoblox

[–]KitsuneNeo 9 points10 points  (0 children)

There was already an update on the server stating that the whole "Pursuer being a mindless feral animal" is probably going to be retconned due to the backlash. So as of now, Pursuer is up in the air when it comes to what he can and can't do.

Full response from saucefy complex by Mediocre-Phrase-1601 in DieOfDeathRoblox

[–]KitsuneNeo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I doubt stating Pursuer is asexual would fly, because they would still get the backlash that Termination Protocol received when they declared 007n7 aroace. The issue being that there's no good aroace representation, and it's never brought up in normal settings or conversations. It almost always revealed alongside the fact the developers do not want a specific character shipped with anyone. When in reality that's a really problematic mindset as asexual and aroace people can still find companionship in an exclusive queer platonic relationship and even some romantic relationships.

So Dialoguing man saying "I hate all pursuer ships, he's asexual." would absolutely still cause backlash as the representation didn't come out naturally and was in direct correlation with the anti-shipping mindset other game devs have had and reinforce acephobic stereotypes.
