GROW A TIER 5 FLIER 2 TIMES? TO AGE 200? LONIX IS A TIER 3 WHYYY these event missions are going to drive me insane tier 5 has nothing to do with this guy come on now 😭

Got on the discord a few days ago to just ask, see if anyone wanted to “play the game like intended” like having a pack and growing babies and such. Every single response I got was like “who’s gonna tell this guy” or “they must not know” I don’t know what? The game isn’t for playing anymore? Just for collecting creatures and having the most money… I’m not only confused but also upset. Those were only a few things said before my question got taken down completely and I got a warning? Is that not what the game is about? I just wanna play the game how it was intended… but if ur interested! Please hit me up! Maybe you guys are more forgiving than the discord.

I was my healer valk and started healing an angelic and they started attacking me and said they hated the healers, then I got chased by another valk and another flier for nothing?? if you didn't want healed, you could've said stop?? It didn't help that I was lagging so bad I couldn't even try running away, but why gang up on me for doing my job?? It made me so angry and confused because I have NEVER been attacked by a person for healing them. If they don't want to be healed, they use their words like an adult and request not to be healed. So is this a thing that's just happening now, or is this a one-time thing? If it's just gonna happen a bunch, I find that absolutely stupid. Also, why kill me? Obviously, if they said not to heal them and attacked me for it, I was going to leave them alone. Why kill me and make me waste 2 revives? Idk, I'm just really peeved over it. It makes no sense

I’m honestly so sick of all the kosers in this game, and I’m not talking about the ones that kill for food, that’s fine, I’m talking about the people that spawn in as ven 5 dblr sigmatox’s and specifically seek out the people in the server with the oldest creatures on the leaderboard. I’m done with the “it’s a survival game” excuse because it completely falls apart when you mention anklebiters or T5’s that hunt T1-3’s OR herbivores looking for violence. A pigeon wouldn’t attack an elephant in real life, a Lion wouldn’t hunt ants, and a giraffe wouldn’t kill an ungodly amount of meerkats just because it felt like it. If you want to act like this is an actual survival game then ACTUALLY DO IT, I’m so sick of people twisting narratives to fit their goals, it’s so annoying and stupid. Instead of acting like killing everything is the goal of the game call it what it actually is, you get joy out of seeing other people upset and you like mocking them for it.

Just to clarify before I start, i do enjoy Iridemikan alot - its nice FINALLY having a stegosaurid in-game.

...but WHY did the devs have to make it another mimic?

We already have Menace, Ushrumesh, Goregnathus (mimics a smaller creature with its jaw) and Felifaux, with there likely being more i've forgotten about. So WHY add another?

Menace used to have uniqueness in the fact it mimicked another creature, which is fun; and then Ushrumesh came, still unique in a way. Followed by Felifaux, which is genuinely just Menace but a cat, and then Goregnathus - which is just Absolute Killer Croc.

And now, Iridemikan. What could've been a unique and cool creature, but is now just another generic mimic (how spooky!!) I would've been fine with it being omnivorous atleast, so i can PRETEND its a normal herbivore like it should've been, but that wouldve been too much to ask for I guess.

The neck-mouth thing is okay, the tongue makes it look like a unicorn and for some reason shows up in its sit animation? Isnt its WHOLE THING supposed to be blending into herds? Why would it want its 4 metre-long tongue floppin' about when trying to hide itself amongst the crowd? For some reason its shoulder spines are little clam-like mouths too, which is just unnessecary.

Its animations are fine for the most part, but oh my GOD its run is horrendous. Its the Whilora situation all over again, with its tiny little feet and leg movements somehow reaching a sprinting speed of 100?? Seriously, its legs trotting and hopping in its sprint annoys me to no end (justified or not), and its normal mouth (on its head) doesnt even move!! Isn't this so worth 599 robux? What a steal!!!!

TL;DR - Iridemikan would've been better as a scary looking and intimidating herbivore that could easily defend itself, instead of being another Menace - just in scaly skin rather than a shell.

LORE

THE LORE OF THIS GAME SUCKS

ok ok reading the document

i will comment whenever i find something unusual or something that makes mE MAD

...

uh huh uh huh

ofc sonaria doesn't have a PERFECT CURVATURE

HAVE YOU SEEN EARTH

because it's explicitly stated the sonaria doesn't have a perfect curvature i'm going to imagine it being the shape of a BEAN because they had to explicitly state that its curvature wasn't perfect

anyways yeah yeah wardens do what they want with the land nothing really too eye catching with the first part

wait wait wait

"The flow of seasons is incredibly fast, as is the passage of time. This impacts growth rate, as well as climate conditions and aging of species."

THIS KIND OF IMPLIES THAT THE GROWTH RATES OF INGAME SPECIES ARE CANON!?!?!?!?!

IT TAKES TWO HOURS AND TWENTY MINUTES FOR A BABY CALDONTERRUS TO GROW INTO A FULLY GROWN ADULT

idk something feels off about that

like it would destroy the entire environment for a literal KAIJU MADE OF MAGMA THAT KILLS EVERYTHING IT SEES to fully grow in UNDER THREE HOURS

idk that's just me

ughhhhh what else what else

okay so the wardens made the individual creatures on different planets

THE WARDENS MADE THE INDIVIDUAL CREATURES ON DIFFERENT PLANETS???

i hope this image displays my issue with this

https://preview.redd.it/jcjcxkjohp2h1.png?width=755&format=png&auto=webp&s=fa950c917abc0352ba83bd5020f87f295baec355

first they make the creature that is adapted to its own planet and its own environment

then they put it on sonaria with a totally different environment

then they see if it lives

OF COURSE IT'S NOT GOING TO LIVE

IT'S ADAPTED TO A COMPLETELY DIFFERENT ENVIRONMENT

JUST MAKE THE CREATURE ALREADY ADAPTED TO THE ENVIRONMENT OF SONARIA INSTEAD OF MAKING IT MORE LIKELY TO DIE ON IT

"oh choptamis maybe they are still studying sonaria" THEY HAVE HAD SINCE THE BEGINNING OF THE UNIVERSE TO DO THIS I THINK THEY WOULD KNOW WHAT THE ENVIRONMENT THEY CREATED WOULD BE LIKE IN THIS TIME SPAN

"oh choptamis it says that they make the planets that the new creatures are made on similar to sonaria" THEN JUST PUT THE NEW CREATURE ON SONARIA IN THE FIRST PLACE

WHY WOULD YOU MAKE IT ON A DIFFERENT PLANET IF YOU ARE JUST GOING TO MOVE IT TO THE SAME ENVIRONMENT ON A DIFFERENT PLANET ANYWAYS

JUST MAKE IT ON SONARIA IN THE FIRST PLACE

"sonaria has become ecologically diverse due to this" NO DUH LITERALLY EVERY SINGLE SPECIES ON IT IS AN INVASIVE SPECIES OF COURSE IT'S ECOLOGICALLY DIVERSE

IT'S AN EVEN BIGGER ISSUE WHEN THE WARDENS ARE STUPID ENOUGH TO MAKE CREATURES THAT ARE THE SIZE OF 3/4THS OF SONARIA (AS SHOWN BY THE SKELETONS SCATTERED ACROSS THE MAP)

DO YOU KNOW HOW STUPID THAT IS

IT'S GOING TO DIE ONCE IT EVEN REALIZES IT CAN THINK WHY WOULD THE WARDENS BELIEVE A CREATURE THAT CAN'T EVEN MOVE A COUPLE OF STEPS WOULD SURVIVE

anyways

i'm currently eating tea and crumpets rn they're so yummy

rebirth and revival what's this?

...

okay so basically

if a creature dies it has a chance to be rebirthed or reborn

i am going to assume this is how it works because it seems even the lore itself doesn't know what it is saying

1. creature lives
2. creature dies
3. creature is reborn

there that's how it works

however there is a secret ending that nobody knows of and i have only thought of

4. creature reproduces like any other creature

nobody can disprove this as nesting is a mechanic ingame and as such if the creature that dies is a female it will reproduce

this leads to a cycle

a long long cycle that, several years after the first female dies and is revived, more members of the population will go

if all of the members of that population are resurrected after dying then OVERPOPULATION WILL OCCUR

here is a chart i hope explains it well

https://preview.redd.it/cfdz8ndnhp2h1.png?width=755&format=png&auto=webp&s=c51aa79a73227f8360cf90fb67f3fabf7baf982b

IF the creatures in the population die and are resurrected then THAT means that no members of the population are being lost

if those resurrected individuals are to then reproduce then that means that no members are being lost AND more members are being added to the population

you know what this means right

OVERPOPULATION

however that's hardly an issue when there are 446 species sharing a small group of islands with 80 of those species being kaiju-sized

unless....

OH MY GOD

this implies that any creature not mentioned in the document is not canon

and as such

https://preview.redd.it/s9s1q93mhp2h1.png?width=755&format=png&auto=webp&s=b539610b14c4c5fbfc285c8b29f2bdd5fc588837

only ELEVEN species out of all 451 creatures ingame are canon to the lore

not to mention that at any point these creatures could be KICKED OUT

LOOK WHAT HAPPENED TO NOXULUMEN

https://preview.redd.it/b8acaollhp2h1.png?width=755&format=png&auto=webp&s=a84ee4a4fcdbc6d88d63f605b5b812ed29107a31

they made an entire LSS EVENT based around his lore and how he was basically the antagonist of CoS's "story"

then a week later that DE-CANONIZED HIM

now he's stuck with the other non-canoners

poor guy

this does make me mad though

you can't exactly write any COHESIVE LORE when at literally ANY POINT

LITERALLY ANYTHING IN THE LORE COULD JUST BE THROWN OUT AND IGNORED

THERE'S HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE WHO PLAY THIS GAME AND ONLY A COUPLE TRY TO UNDERSTAND THE LORE BECAUSE IT'S SO INCONSISTANT

I DON'T EVEN KNOW WHERE SONARIA IS LOCATED ANYMORE BECAUSE THEY CHANGED THE LOCATION LIKE

FIVE TIMES

FIRST IT WAS AT THE CENTER OF THE EARTH

THEN IT WAS A PLANET

THEN IT WAS SOMEWHERE BACK ON EARTH BECAUSE FOR SOME REASON ONE OF THE DEVS OPENED THEIR MOUTH AND SAID HUMANS ONCE LIVED ON SONARIA

AND NOW IT'S BACK AT THE CENTER OF THE UNIVERSE

MAKE UP YOUR FREAKING MINDS YOU LORE WRITERS

AAAAAH

anyways

sips tea

ahem ahem sorry it's a little hot

adjusts reading glasses

lip smack lip smack

warden lore is fine

there isn't really anything that's incredibly confusing about it

or maybe there is idk it's 10:00 pm i'm tired

novus warden is an actual warden now

if you didn't know there was a whole lore thing back then where it probably wasn't a warden but then the devs DECANONIZED THAT

GOD DAMN IT WE COULD HAVE HAD SOMETHING INTERESTING

AAAAH

ok ok

deep breaths deep breaths

"balance must always be maintained on sonaria" as shown by the stats of most creatures nowadays that is not the case

ok now we're at the keys

qualhul (boreal warden) is mad because the other wardens (besides eigion and angelic) went off-world to see an anomaly

for one WHAT KIND OF ANOMALY WOULD REQUIRE FIVE UNIVERSAL GODS TO TAKE CARE OF IT

hell i would rather see how that went than what is actually told to us

qualhul searches for the keys because he wants to take control of them

he finds rebus who coincidentally has all of the keys' locations documented in a journal

REBUS JUST SHOW QUALHUL THE JOURNAL

ALL OF THE KEY LOCATIONS ARE DOCUMENTED IN IT

IF I WERE FACED BY A UNVERISAL GOD I WOULD SURE AS HELL DO WHAT IT ASKED

ESPECIALLY IF THAT UNIVERSAL GOD WAS THE ONE I WAS MADE WITH THE SOLE PURPOSE TO SERVE FOR AND I KNOW THEY WOULD FREAKING SMITE ME IF I DIDN'T DO WHAT THEY ASKED

and then rebus gives qualhul the journal

AND THEN QUALHUL CAN'T READ IT???? WHAT???? HOW CAN YOU NOT READ THE JOURNAL???? IT'S A FREAKING JOURNAL IT LITERALLY HAS THE LOCATIONS OF THE KEYS WRITTEN DOWN JUST LOOK AT THAT

AND THEN BECAUSE OF QUALHUL'S ILLERTACY

QUALHUL'S KEY BREAKS AND NOW THE ENTIRE PLANET OF SONARIA IS DOOMED TO HELL

WHAT

https://preview.redd.it/kxcvpu3hhp2h1.png?width=755&format=png&auto=webp&s=d67f89fb01b5cb571e758fe5904ee48ce59463fb

THE FATE OF AN ENTIRE PLANET IS AT ARMS BECAUSE ONE OF THE EIGHT CREATORS OF IT PANICKED AND BROKE THE KEY

WHAT

WHAT

WHAT

IMAGINE KNOWING THAT YOUR ENTIRE WORLD COULD FREAKING DIE BECAUSE A SINGLE FRAGILE ITEM COULD BREAK FROM ITS CREATOR MAKING AN OOPSY DAISY

AND APPARENTLY THESE KEYS CAN BE FOUND ON SONARIA AS WELL

IMAGINE IF A TINY LITTLE BELLUVARAPTOR WERE WANDERING AROUND IN A CAVE AND IT SAW A KEY

AND ITS LITTLE CURIOUS MIND DECIDED TO MESS WITH IT

AND THEN IT FREAKING BROKE THE ENTIRE THING AND NOW THE ENTIRE WORLD IS GOING TO DIE BECAUSE OF THAT

DO YOU KNOW HOW STUPID THAT WOULD BE

OH MY GOD

IMAGINE EIGION WAS HAVING A BAD DAY AND WASN'T FEELING WELL WHILE THE OTHER WARDENS WERE HAPPY

"OH THERE'S AN IMBALANCE"

AND THEN EIGION'S KEY BREAKS BECAUSE THERE WAS A FROWN ON HIS FACE AND EVERYONE ELSE WAS SMILING

AND NOW THE ENTIRE WORLD'S GOING TO HELL BECAUSE ONE GUY WASN'T FEELING GOOD

DO YOU SEE WHAT I MEAN

AAAAH

anyways ahem ahem

...

okay okay

urzuk lore is fine

now to rebus

rebus was attacked and imprisoned by qualhul

jesus christ qualhul is stupid

imagine being fearful that the world you made would die

so you take the only person who knows where the keys are

asks for the directions

and then torture and imprison that person because you couldn't understand them

that was what happened to rebus and it makes zero sense

the doc says that the journal included literal MAPS and DIAGRAMS leading to the keys

HOW THE HELL CAN QUALHUL NOT UNDERSTAND MAPS and DIAGRAMS OF THE WORLD THEY MADE THEMSELVES

IT MAKES NO SENSE

the doc also says that the key fragments were HOPEFULLY found which made me giggle cuz it implies the devs were ready for the keys not to be found

then it also says rebus was recaptured at the end of the lore event

WHAT WAS ALL THAT FOR THEN

REBUS WAS GOING TO STAY CAPTURED ANYWAYS AND NOW THEY'RE PROBABLY JUST TRAPPED IN SPACE PRISON OR JUST FREAKING DEAD 😭😭😭

inkpujn were made to protect sonaria from catastrophies

THEY FAILED

THEY FREAKING FAILED

HOW THE HELL DID THEY FALL ASLEEP WHILE THE WORLD WAS NEARLY AT AN END

AND APPARENTLY THEY WERE MADE BEFORE THE EVENTS OF THE FIRST LORE EVENT HAPPENED SO DON'T YOU DARE TELL ME THAT THEY WEREN'T MADE AT THE TIME BECAUSE THEY DEFINITELY WERE

IMAGINE MAKING A GUARDIAN FOR AN ENTIRE WORLD AND THEN NOT MAKING SURE THAT GUARDIAN IS DOING THE ONE THING IT'S MADE TO DO

OH MY GOD ALL OF THE WARDENS AND ALL OF THE URZUKS ARE STUPID

STUPID

SSSSSSTTTTTTUUUUUUPPPPPPPIIIIIIIIIIIDDDDDD

i'm oh_delivery and this is my rant

I hate seeing people complain about shadow creatures more than robux creatures. Artifact farming isn’t even that bad if you do it correctly, while robux creatures are impossible to get unless you want to spend your hard-earned money or an astrocious amount of 30k-40k mush in the trade realm because of greedy assholes. And the fact we get robux creatures every. Fucking. Month. Am i genuinely the only one who gets excited about a new shadow creature rather than a robux one? Also forgot to mention shadow creatures have generally better stats and less boring designs than robux creatures 75% of the time.

Great job, creators! A new creature every week, but what about the gacha creatures? It's always Robux or artifacts... Couldn't you add some new gacha creatures? They're just sitting there, abandoned. I know, I know, you're all very busy, but is it really that hard to add a creature that's gacha-based instead of artifacts or Robux?
