So no one else calls em gourds?
NO SPOILERS PLEASE!
Me and 2 friends started playing completely blind. We love the game. We saw the first gourd and said hey a gourd and got it, assumed it was some useless toy at first then realized the game centers around getting them. Now when we unlock one we all circle around it and throw our arms up and chant "gourd gourd gourd gourd" like cavemen and treat them like dieties. Gourd is love. Gourd is life. But while walking bigly last night i had the thought and said "what if other people don't call them gourds" and we all stood for a second in the horror of the thought. Today i peaked at this reddit while trying to avoid spoilers and have seen them called eggs, babies, dolls. Tons of things but not gourd. Anyway, just funny to me. If at the end they are eggs and they hatch or something don't tell me. I dont wanna know. To me they will always be gourds.
