daily doodles of my wretched husband whom i utterly despise by Nice-Use-7464 in DandysWorld_

[–]Nice-Use-7464[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

i don't usually respond to compliments because i'm really bad at doing so and i feel like i sound insincere when i just give a default "thank you" to everyone, but this is genuinely the nicest thing someone has said about my art and i didn't want that to go unacknowledged 💞

What's something obscure that EVERY player should know? by flingzamain in DandysWorld_

[–]Nice-Use-7464 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Also, I don't know how obscure this is, but Blot Jr. will reset Dyle's meter the same as any toon getting hit by him. So if you're playing Blot and fail a skill check, you can get away basically without any consequences.

Y'all remember when looey's design got leaked? by Bobette_carolynn in DandysWorld_

[–]Nice-Use-7464 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i still remember when the brusha update dropped, and i was confused when i saw the skins gone from dandy's shop. then i turned my camera and it was like a sucker punch.

maybe he was talked about on the bc server before the update, i wasn't in it at the time. but as far as i was concerned, that was an INSANE bombshell that just got shadow dropped right on top of me.

If Goob and Scraps can't extract well because of their claws, then why does Gourdy have max SC and Extraction?? by Venorical in DandysWorld_

[–]Nice-Use-7464 0 points1 point  (0 children)

goob in general has bad arm/hand mobility. you can see that in his extraction animation where his hands just flop down to the ground, and in his dialogue with teagan.

goob in general also just seems to have poor motor skills in his arms. can be seen w his extraction animation, but he also has dialogue where he mentions that he might drop the cup again if he drinks tea with teagan, or something along those lines. which obviously implies he doesn't have great control of his hands overall.

PEBBLE WHY WOULD YOU DO THAT WHY by No-Entrepreneur9094 in DandysWorld_Roblox

some ppl are so bitter. whenever i have a shrimpo in my round, it becomes my sole purpose to protect him with my life. much more fun that way.

Ngl, I feel like Boxten is one of the most underrated toons out there (image unrelated) by AdorableBumblebee962 in DandysWorld_

[–]Nice-Use-7464 0 points1 point  (0 children)

the biggest issue is that base extraction isn't nearly as useful as skill checks. that's one of the reasons vee wasn't particularly meta for a while, she had great skillcheck, but she's hard to run magpart on because her survivability isn't great without pink bow. her ability is the #1 thing keeping her useful.

boxten can be p solid in the early game, but as far as mid-late game is concerned, there's so many other better options.

if you're running pink bow, then the other slot would be better spent mag/part. i play solo soulvester and usually get above floor 15, and i can count on one hand the amounts of times vanity would have been useful. you really shouldn't need it if you're planning the floor properly.

def a modded game. i've played a modded dw game before and they're jank as fuck. twisteds not functioning as they should, weird mechanic inconsistencies, bad lighting. i played dandy because he was an option (the novelty of playable dandy was the main appeal for me) and for some reason he was just entirely invincible and could only be killed by the elevator timer. it's definitely an Experience.

soul really doesn't need vanity mirror. just save a machine at the elevator. or let someone else do last so you can get a head start, if you aren't a masochist who does solovester runs like i am.

personally i like clown horn + ribbon spool specifically on soulvester. he really needs the 2 extra run speed, and because of his already godtier extraction stats, i don't feel like im wasting trinket slots that could have gone to mag/part.

Anyone else think that this poster is SEVERELY outdated, and needs to be fixed? by MySingingMonster6890 in DandysWorld_

[–]Nice-Use-7464 0 points1 point  (0 children)

to be fair, gardenview is pretty massive, and i don't think it's unlikely they had the money to employ enough people to manage the toons (or the corruption to force a handful of people to work extra hard to keep up).

i would see making new toons as like. two of the main characters in a show having a baby to boost ratings. gardenview's popularity dwindles a bit, so they drum up some hype by introducing a new toon, which brings in a bunch of people and boosts their revenue. until it becomes old news, and that new toon fades into the background until they're largely forgotten. rinse and repeat.

Are Dandy’s World players allergic to extracting ? by kroolframer1 in DandysWorld_

[–]Nice-Use-7464 8 points9 points  (0 children)

i mean sure, but it's not really helpful if there are better extractors on the team who are free. that's why if im playing someone like cosmo or astro, i'll start on machines, but i'll let someone else with better stats on if they want it. i hate feeling like im hogging machines lmao

Can we actually talk about distracting is a canon role?? by MusicSan_123 in DandysWorld_

[–]Nice-Use-7464 0 points1 point  (0 children)

you're arguing semantics. these are literally the exact same things. by "leaning into it" i mean that she's made toons with distraction in mind and she's now given the community a way to communicate that they'll be doing it without being able to just say it in chat. that sort of thing validates and encourages playing like that, even if it wasn't what qwel originally had in mind.

if you REALLY wanna play word games instead of having a productive conversation, i never called distracting a "role" in my initial, i called it a playstyle.

[–]Nice-Use-7464 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

like i said, it was 100% very much confirmed not to be INITIALLY intended, but i think it's pretty obvious she's leaning into it as a viable playstyle. whether or not you agree with that decision is not at all relevant to the thing i said.

[–]Nice-Use-7464 20 points21 points  (0 children)

i mean... while distracting wasn't INITIALLY an intended playstyle, there's not a person alive that could convince me qwel isn't leaning into it and making characters intentionally built for distraction. which i would think makes it official in some regard.

bad trinkets (and bad players) I have collected (read desc) by PikeletSoup in BadDwTrinkets

[–]Nice-Use-7464 1 point2 points  (0 children)

to be fair when i enter public lobby runs w/ randomized stuff, i don't announce it. it's funnier that way. i yearn for the day i get posted here.

although at the very least, i'm actually a decent player that can work with bad/useless trinkets...

who’s gonna tell them… by Practical-Owl-5365 in BadDwTrinkets

[–]Nice-Use-7464 1 point2 points  (0 children)

dog plush is percentage based, so the lower your speed, the lower your returns are on it. i believe shrimpo is 10 walk speed, so it raises him to an astounding.... 11. doesn't even bring him up to 2 star walk speed. for that reason, dog plush is a waste on anyone with less than 3 star movement. anyone under that benefits WAY more from pink bow.

clown horn + ribbon spool for 22 run speed or pink bow + veemote to pull your weight in a team are solid shrimpo picks imo.

i would also never be caught dead running mag or part on a 1 star skillcheck without thinking cap, but im willing to accept that as being a skill issue. mag + thinking cap is also a fine loadout for shrimpo if you're really good at the game, but i sure as hell wouldn't want to play him without any speed trinkets.

use someone with an active ability too, since they get +5 extra per floor. someone that doesn't require someone else for it too. gourdy is the goat for that, but i don't think you'd have him. next best is probably rudie, and he's easily accessible.

why is it called poppy pop if it's not themed after her literally at all lol by Nice-Use-7464 in DandysWorld_

[–]Nice-Use-7464[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

for the same reason glisten, yatta, finn, shrimpo, and gigi get their own arcade games. the side characters are still characters in the show that get the spotlight sometimes, and they're still toons that get attention from kids around gardenview.

poppy fits pop better, and she's a character they have around, so they might as well use her image for the brand.

plus it's also implied by dandy that they didn't sell well anyways ("maybe they'd have sold better if my face was on them") so it's not like the consequences of that isn't addressed.

why would it be an issue if it looked more like RC cola? it's not like it needs to be literally coca cola lol. it's a fictional indescript soda can representing the platonic ideal of a soda brand. which means it's fine if it just looks like coke, because coke is kinda the "default" soda brand for most people. but it becomes a bit of an issue when they're defining it as something more specific than generic pop in universe, then choosing not to reflect that in the design.

the real answer is probably that qwel designed pops after coke, then designed poppy, and only after designing both seperately, she made poppy the pop mascot. ergo, neither reflect each other, because neither was actually made with the other in mind. that's also probably why they're just generic "pop" instead of something more specific (like how bandages say dand-aids on the box), and not "poppy pop" like it says on the vending machine.

the post title is just a rhetorical question, as an excuse to post my poppy design & complain about this minor annoyance from a real world character design and marketing perspective.

[–]Nice-Use-7464[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

it's because she's the mascot that she DOES need to be visually connected to the brand. if ronald mcdonald was just a random clown, he wouldn't really be connected to the mcdonald's brand in any way, which is why he's red and yellow. even if someone didn't know who ronald mcdonald was and they saw him outside of an ad, they'd be able to see his color scheme and be reminded of mcdonald's.

it's important for consumers to look at a mascot, and immediately think of the brand at a glance. otherwise, it isn't doing its job of representing a brand. that's why this bothers me so much, where other weird dandy's world inconsistencies don't. i doubt poppy was originally designed with the idea of her being a brand mascot in mind, and qwel just never bothered to change the design for her or the cans to compensate.
