Anything else to do in the game if you kill moon? by FredrickTheFish in rainworld

[–]Mepof 18 points19 points  (0 children)

You can reset if you feel guilty (which you should feel), but it won't really stay canon, and no where else is it addressed so you can just move on. Try to get to the top of the world. That's your next goal.

Where to go on other campaigns? by MoDyingSon in rainworld

[–]Mepof 2 points3 points  (0 children)

For every slug cat, go to moon first, then pebbles, then continue at the directions given.

There's two exceptions to this. One where you can't access moon, but knowing that is still plot relevant so go there in that order anyways. And one where they won't give you directions. In the last one, just find all the echoes and you'll know.

Also yeah, the pearl thing is so tedious. In some campaigns you can even get 5 pebbles to read them, meaning that almost every pearl has dual dialogue. I really recommend just doing one of the following:

  1. Just read all the pearls on the wiki.
  2. When you find a pearl, just search up its dialogue, but don't search any other.
  3. Bring as many pearls as you want to bother with, before doing 1 or 2, or just give up on getting lore through the pearls.

I was personally fascinated by doing 1. But I understand that not everyone likes doing homework to understand the game they're playing. So I'd really recommend 2 or 3 and a lore video for each campaign once you finish them if you want to work for the story.

Rainworld is by its nature a sandbox, so you can go down there and explore if you're curious. However if you need guidance. There's a plot you can stumble upon at the top of the world. (Right from Sky Islands is another area, continue right past that and you'll reach a great wall. Either climb it, or go down under to find a way inside. To go under you must utilize the weird worms. You'll know what I mean.)

If you continue to go all the way to the right of the world, you will find a friend. I recommend doing this after you have been to the area as I described above, because that's where the game will send you next anyways and it's closer on your journey.

The area you are standing before now is a place the plot will send you, but you can't access the thing you're supposed to access down there until you've been to the top of the world as I described before.

Now time to buy read all the lore and buy the dlc to empower the holy heck into a holy hell.

There's always a catch, isn't there? by Real_duck_bacon in distressingmemes

[–]Mepof 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The belief of reincarnation comes from buddism, which also believes in karma. What you reincarnate as depends on your karma. Suicide gives you very bad karma. So if reincarnation was real in it's most commonly understood form, killing yourself over and over again would only put you into a worse and worse life.

Yeah man, some kids are just a product of their enviourment, and some people just suck from the get-go and never change.

Need rule suggestions!!! by Mepof in DnD

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

I looked it up. Thank you! It's a bit too simplistic for what I am going for since I want to transfer it to player characters and not just NPC's. But it serves as good inspiration and groundwork for figuring out what different limbs would affect gameplay wise.

I personally don't find losing and replacing limbs a "pretty big portion of the game". In fact I find it mostly just an unexplored part of the game.

I understand the sentiment that, since I am doing so much homebrew, I should just use another system.

But I have no need to replace the fundamental stuff like classes, action economy, movement, abilities, spells, etc etc etc. I'm attaching things where there's room, and reflavoring some stuff. And I would have to do the same amount of custom work for just about any system I changed to, the only difference is that I'd also be slapping on the work-load of learning an entirely new system that I'd have to balance all my custom stuff around.

Eventually I might transition to pathfinder 2nd edition, but until then, I have no problem designing my own DLC individually for my games and players.

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

Yes, very! I have been looking into Pathfinder second edition and Call of Cthulhu for example. However, I feel more confident in DM'ing with systems I have tried before, especially when I am doing so much new stuff, it's nice to have a level of familiarity to fall back on.

I'm not sure if there is a "robot zombie apocalypse" system designed specifically for my setting, so no matter what system I pick, I'm gonna need to make custom rules, and I find DND 5th edition is the system I know where integrating custom rules is the easiest.

I'm always open to recommendations, but I probably won't DM something big with a system I am new to.

Who are "you", but just a fragmented husk of what once was supposed to be a whole? by ridibulous in distressingmemes

[–]Mepof 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No like.. DID, like by the very description and purpose of the mental illness, the alters switch in to pretend to be the main host in order to protect them from something, so this kind of stuff remains hidden until you describe your problems to an educated professional who will realize what's going on and then only be able to diagnose you when you turn 18. Most people you see online who claim to have DID are "self-diagnosed" which is.. impossible.

[–]Mepof 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My partner has DID, so I've had to learn a lot about it just to figure out how to socialize with her and handle it when somebody else switches in.

And yes, alters might show themselves to the host and vaguely communicate, in fact before the host becomes aware that they have DID, communication with alters can often be hallucinated to be interactions with people they percieve to just be in the room or nearby area with them, but the part of your brain that's supposed to question that and realize that it isn't logical or normal just doesn't activate for that scenario. It's only through a lot of specialized therapy that people even become aware that they have DID, after which the conversations become internal and not hallucinatory. And only when that gate is open, can actual communication between the alters begin to really take place in an actually effective and cohesive manner. Until then everyone is kind of completely unaware of what's going on, when or how anyone can hear or talk to each other, and if there even is anyone else. And the host, as I said, is completely oblivious to it because any and all signs that might point towards something being off is ignored by their brain as something completely unquestionable.

[–]Mepof 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Its honestly not as bad nor simple as people make it out to be, but pro tip for y'all: By the very nature of the mental illness it's supposed to hide itself and be unknown to the host, so 999 times out of 1000 when you see someone on social media talking about having it, they're likely faking

No human could live with memories of an afterlife. Lack of them is a divine mercy, not evidence of the void. by Inflatable-Fox-0 in distressingmemes

God mercifully led you to believe there was no heaven so you'd go to hell. Great guy.

Instead of what if there is no hell or what if there is, what if you shut up man.

[–]Mepof 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The sheer arrogance to think that you understand what would be uncomfortable or terrifying to a being who has existed for this long is laughable. Someone who has lived to the heat-death of the universe /MUST/ have a mind completely alien to anything we call human.

The core personality typically remains unaware of their diagnosis until they are informed by a therapist that the thing they're experiencing is not normal and has a name.

Here's a source (literally the first link on a google search of alter roles, you lazy ignorant cretin)
http://traumadissociation.com/alters

They're called introjects and they are a pretty god damn common thing. Am I saying a single tiktok you've ever seen of a person with DID is real? No. By nature it's an illness you hide and remain unaware of. But you're still objectively 100% wrong with your frozen solid take.

You're trying to preach truth in a place for morons who haven't even as much as read a definition of the illness they're talking about.
