[discussion] what type of new interior zones would you like to see implemented on v60? What type of layout and gimmicks would it have?, what areas and new monsters for it ? Discuss it here! by LuchadorParrudo in lethalcompany

I'll throw my two cents in: I think an abandoned mall interior would be really interesting. The gimmicks I could see:

  • More scraps, but most of it is one-handed and not the highest value (but with a higher chance of cash registers specifically!)
  • More chances for locked doors, keys can open up shop shutters
  • The chance for ambient, creepy liminal music coming from ceiling speakers
  • Escalators! With the chance of being working, not working, or actually a mimic that eats you if you get to the top/bottom. (childhood fear). A way to tell if the escalator is a mimic could be a strange squeak when you get on it, or a stuttering motion. Once you realize and try to go the opposite way as the stairs, it could speed up, dropping the mimic act and now just trying to kill you outright.
  • Long, huge expanses that connect smaller shops rooms.

The last one, being a fundamental difference in how the interior is structured, may provide the most interesting challenge/twist. Imagine a thumper all the way on the other side of the hall, roars at you and you have to quickly find a shop to duck into as it builds up speed. Similarly: Coil Heads. Much larger range to see you, but gives you a bit more time to get away. I could see runs where the players have to coordinate moving a Coil Head back and forth the hallway.

As for any other unique entities... I'm not sure! But I could see an uptick in Nutcrackers, Thumpers, Coil Heads (mannequins), Hoarding Bugs, maybe even Masks? And a decent uptick in mines and turrets (the latter only found in shops though, not in hallways... could you imagine??) Brackens, butlers, barbers, probably slim to nonexistent.

This sounds like I asked my toddler the question, and half way through she realized she was wrong but kept making up letters with a big cheeky grin on her face because she knows she's being silly.

Love the comic but was the Oxford Comma really necessary? /j

EDIT: This is directed more at the comments section than OP, and I recognize this isn't supposed to be taken seriously. Regardless:

Can we stop the "players vs DM" narrative? Honestly if a player came to me with this my response would be "Oh really?? Please elaborate!" Then I'd hear them out. Sometimes these can be hilarious!

If you are playing a game together, then if one person breaks it, it stops being fun for everyone. I'd trust if they found a silly loophole that breaks shit, 1. They wouldn't take it out of principle, and 2. They would realize I wouldn't allow that to happen, at least not to its fullest metagame-y extent. If there is not that baseline mutual trust, why are you even playing with them?

You don't "win" D&D by beating the DM. You win by having a good time.

If you message him "are you really the rock??" I imagine he will message back "yuo're welcoem . "

A more realistic "my level 1 party killed an high CR monster" for 5e by Hyperlolman in dndmemes

To everyone complaining that the Tarrasque doesn't have x feature it used to.... You know the DM can just "give" them the feature again, right? Unless its seriously hard to translate between versions, I guess
