She's girlbossing in the current year, bet she keeps her own irongirl suit she made with trash :WeSmart:
Don't even started on Defender of Food stamps :cautious:

No but seriously, if he wanted Lyric to look smart within the setting she would be developing abstract ideas while also, having knowledge of whatever modern wonder could've been developed at the time, basic stuff that shows she cares about learning and is happy to do so, in a way, she could've been a guide for you, doing small exposition tidbits to let the champion know about this or that detail that later helps you along the way, or allows you to uncover some secret or some trivia about the world, while also being a small pocket pussy that cheers on the champion
Ignoring the fact that she's literally a tribal that has never read/write or seen a book before meeting the champ. You'll have to completely rewrite her to make that work.
I like Lyric conceptually - pocket pussy that eats my money and thinks in the abstract is neat but like all things in this game, the execution is shit.

Since Lyric is the center of attention, I need to get this off my chest. B can't write for shit and does not know how to write a smart character, let alone characters that are discovering or questioning shit using the scientific method. First thing is they shouldn't even know what the scientific method is, they are in the bronze age - for as clever as dudes were back then, they thought rocks fall because they like the earth :BootyTime: a peek in the Historia Naturalis (or a video) will legit show u that they were still working out the concept of reality. But Lyric over here talking about gravity and biology, like bitch you can't even read, how'd u even know those words.:rolleyes:
That always lowkey annoys me. Giving one particular character contemporary knowledge to show that they're smart is the laziest way to do it. I don't expect every person who writes a smart character in a low tech fantasy setting to have studied history and philosophy enough to be intimately familiar with the very particular aristotle-christian syncretism that led to beliefs like "rocks fall because they're at the bottom of this very intricate hierarchy of stuff that we've come up with through a combination of observation, vibes, and scripture" but at least think about where the knowledge you're having a character cite would have come from in their setting. If it clearly doesn't exist yet, then they should be pawing at it, not talking like they're citing a textbook.

I will be way more convinced that your character is smart if they come up with a theory that's wrong but would be sound to them based on the knowledge they have access to.

My brother in Christ, you are the lead dev of the project after Fen stepped down, and before that you were working on TiTS for as long as it existed, and now you are telling me that you are not aware of what is going on with that team!?

I know lil corpo-speak, let me translate: "Stop asking me questions I don't want to answer because it'll sound fucked up if I say it out loud," its a defensive tactic.
Edit: Whatchu ask anyway?

"You gotta ask the TiTS staff. I'll get you to them in a sec."
"OK."
Goes under a desk, puts on a hat with TiTS' logo on it.
"Hiya, partner, I'm from the TiTS staff!"

Seen many athlets that had specific nagging injuries but Fen's club is the only place I've ever heard of where someone's injury is listed as "injured prostate through the anus".

The question was "... why was there no trials in tainted space update?", and it indeed has already been 3 weeks since last update on 10th of july.
That's good while, I don't particularly care. My apathy has long since set in, so hearing this is a nothing burger to me. But from the looks of it Sav has never been into deving for TiTs so him not caring unless he gets to flex authority is in character.

Oh, he was very passionate about writing for red myr (fascist ants). Particularly about portraying them in the "Erm, ackshully, fascist invaders were the good guys all along" light.

If only he could muster comparable passion for developing CoC2... :HideThePain:
