Arrrgh X_x I just spent the last 48 hours reading this fucking thing

And I regret nothing, fuck you all

hello, I started reading golem quest some days ago, its awesome. I wish I here earlier so I could actually influence it some. I have days to read yet before I fully catch up (currently on thread6) but I have noticed something that I sincerely hope was rectified.

My observation is that this world is super mega ultra high magic. Magic is everything. Every request people make, no matter HOW crazy (punch politics in the face, craft a bunch of sentient golems, whatever), bob responds with "Sure you can, you just need level X of magics Y".

So far the most powerful beings are heroes and mages, both of which are mages actually. Because heroes are combat mages who turn magic inwards to reinforce their body (or outwards to destroy)... the dragons can wipe the floor with us, our pet ghost mage can wipe the floor with us, the leaders of the mortal coin can wipe the floor with us, and even some heroes can wipe the floor with us (with the recent attack in the land of dragons meeting lubu, the other dragon, the time mage, the 4 monks, the siege weapons)...

The most powerful implements, by far, that morde has are all magic. they are his magnetomancy, his eye lasers (rune magic), and his stolen arm magics (rune magic). Those 3 are what wins the day...

Morde himself is in an exceptionally good position to be a mage.
He has thousands of souls all contributing manapool and manaregen so to speak, each individual nexus can cast seperate and concurrently (something mortal mages cannot do, at least pre ascension) and he has eidetic memory (allowing him to memorize several books in 3 minutes... he should have taken a few hours and memorize every single magic book he owns. Scratch that... every single book period. Sure the knowledge takes time to digest, but at least it would be there.

I have to say that the goal should be most rapid growth, by choosing something like "blood iron and souls from battle"

Message too long. Click here to view the full text.

an addendum... we seem to LOSE the majority of souls in battle because we cannot harvest them fast enough... imagine if in the battle with the yeti he had absorbed a dozen shamans + the eldest shamaen... instead he only got 1 single regular shaman... He could have used their knowledge to personally take over the little tomb in mesmorde, or to take over the little tomb he fought in the professor island... and such out their precious souls and assimilate them too.

A lot of your questions go over things I have not really thought about, simply because I wanted to focus more on the story itself. I also don't really have plans to make another story in this universe, but I will try to answer your questions the best I can.

> I wouldn't mind a full explanation of Project Exodius, since it came out of nowhere.

Operation Exodus was simply a contingency plan to get civilians out of Primordia were there to be a catastrophic event, either from the Luken or Gabriel.

> The plan is to find new islands on boats, right?

Basically. A small amount of people have an idea of other civilizations that dwell in the lands beyond, including the Premier.

> The old Primier DID die after he left, right? Never found a body.

Gabriel let out a field of intense energy that disintegrated everyone in the room. He then proceeded to absorb them. The Premier was definitely still in the chamber.

So Primordia is actually bigger than the entire Map of Just Cause 2 according to this image.
http://unrealitymag.bcmediagroup.netdna-cdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/large-video-game-worlds2.jpg

Kanui is 522 mi^2, Panau has a 400 square miles of game space, a significant part of that is ocean. I'm using that as a reference since video game worlds are the easiest sense of scale to tell from a computer monitor.

I am not a cool guy, but thank you very much for the compliment. Others on this board can attest to the fact I am merely an obsessive reader of things I read and like. I'd love to send you my contact information, is there a specific place you'd like me to send it to?

>>96537

Just about. But like I said, I've failed to give Primordia that scale.

Do you have Skype? If you aren't comfortable giving info here, you can send to my email jakespringhorn@gmail.com

>>96538
It's a vertical artificial island man, that wonks the perspective and scale ALL up. It's too alien to understand the scale, which is fine. I can't even imagine how anyone could draw a island wide skyscraper without it looking like a small one on paper. They didn't even really try portraying the scale of Midgar correctly in the original FF7, which is like Primordia in concept, only it's two tiers (and I think they dug into the ground a bit for the lower city so the entire thing is kind of sunken?). You never got a good look at Midgar as a whole, barely understanding the whole picture.

But FUCK would Primodia be a cool ass 3D space I tell you what. Especially if you could wingsuit around in it.

How exactly are the Middle and Upper City supported anyway? Just lots of metal support beams and pillars?

Info sent

> How exactly are the Middle and Upper City supported anyway? Just lots of metal support beams and pillars?

Pretty much. I don't know much about the construction-side of things, but having all those buildings on that raised bit of land would seem pretty dangerous with hardly any support from beams. But yeah, I envisioned the island being much wider. The fact that it's very "vertical" seems impractical. Cool, but impractical. The drawing I made also kinda gives the impression there isn't much space left if they ever want to expand, but I suppose after the events of this quest, they'll be putting more effort into widening the island with artificial land through some method. Now that the Luken and Anthro kissed and made up, that'll probably be much easier now.

Best Ass 2019. Hands down

Are you a fan of American Psycho? Book or Movie?

Believe it or not, I haven’t seen/read it yet! I’ve only got into slashers in the past couple months so I have a lot of media to get through lol. It’s definitely on the list though (and I won’t pretend Fancy’s look doesn’t borrow from the general aesthetic of it haha)

How realistic are you going for with this quest? As in, how diligent should we be about trying to get away with our actions? Should we be concerned with forensic teams, or is this meant to be more of a silly, light-hearted jaunt?

Oh, definitely unrealistic. I’m trying to keep it fun and easy for myself, and having to research forensics etc isn’t either of those things for me lol

A-Yes
B-Yes
C-earings?

1-they should each keep their last name, and give hyphened last name to the children

2-live in a house

3- public schools are filled with all sorts, children from all manners of family. children from the Morrigan-Wallace family are more likely to find a niche group of friends that match their specific interest.
a private school for fantasy children could also work.
I also think these locations would lead to more interesting story oppertunities

A- Yes
B- No
C- Dunno. Darker outfits and makeup sometimes?

1- Morrigan-Wallace
2- A house. Nothing against the lab but it's a lab.
3- Hard one. We don't have hybrid children and it's already pretty bad for some kids. A special school is the safest but is it the best long-term? Home-schooling introduces bias. I can't choose sorry.

>>124105
D- Nah.
1- Walligan seems like a better portmanteau than Morrace, go with Walligan.
2- House. Labs are fun to play in, but less so to live, especially with kids.
3- Public schooling. There's too much essential social growth tied up in interacting with peers, and with with a demigod and death insisting their kids get good schooling, it'll probably mean the school is better off than it would be otherwise.

Nem finally gets her money-shot. She was curious as to what it would look, feel and taste like. Nem's curious about what the experience of a lot of things she's seen in porn is actually like.

For those curious, Nem doesn't find the taste of jizz to be particularly off-putting but neither does she find it that pleasant.

I expect "Kevlar Shibari" is somewhere in Barry's search history.

I'll dump some stuff that I had.

Kay, so, the Intermission has been the main focus for awhile now, and I’ve been updating, uh, somewhat regularly. But a quick question.

How does everybody feel about the Intermission? Like it, want it to run awhile longer; or would you rather get back to Borya?

I’ll roll with it either way.

i mean i would like to get through this base assault first but after that i would love to go back to Borya.

thanks for making me google translate all that. =P Do you actually know russian (if so, cool) or was this a case of google translate both ways?

>>131340
Aw man, saw your /quest/ post first and replied to that. Never mind, then.

Didn’t intend for you to have to translate it, was hoping context and gestures would convey the meaning so I didn’t have to ruin the Russian vibe by having it all in English, a stylistic choice that I regret only slightly in hindsight. Thanks for translating that so everyone else understands.

And I don’t speak very good Russian, write it fuck-all. I can understand it fine, and speak it enough to be understood, but the finer nuances allude me. If I’m being perfectly honest, the language is even more of a mutant bastard than English. The syntax is brutally confusing, and there are so many one-off synonyms for words that a thesaurus would have to be as thick as War and Peace. Not to mention the size of Russia resulting in ridiculous regional variation.

In short it’s not an easy language to learn, kinda like Japanese; if you didn’t grow up with it and it’s surrounding culture you’ll never speak it fluently. Lucky enough for me, a good friend of mine speaks it natively. So he helped with the dialogue. Originally, it had a lot of “Blyat”s in it. “Blyat” has virtually no equivalency in English, it could mean “Bitch”, “Fuck”, “Ah!”, or “Damn it” depending on how you use it. It’s pretty much the most versatile word I know of. But google translate doesn’t know what the hell to do with it, so I left those out.

The day Google translate can properly understand Russian is the day AI rules the world. But the translation you gave conveys the point. So for intents and purposes it’s good enough.

>>131343
all good, translating it didn't change the choice I made, but did solidify it. Translated it cause I had to know. Speaking of Japanese I took a few classes of it such that, should I really want to, I should be able to construct sentences with enough effort. I know enough to know roughly how to look up what other things I would need as well as the basic grammatical structure. I honestly think Japanese would be easy enough to learn if it didn't have kanji. (Kanji being why I'm not still studying Japanese)

So is Arzfayz right about kobolds only breeding with kobolds or is she misinformed? This is fantasy world with different races so you can never be such what can crossbreed.

The Great Chtulthur Hierarchy is regarded just as a hive of overgrown insects by outsiders, but this is not the truth. Although structurally it is a hive mind-like colony system, it is quite far from a gestalt consciousness. It is sure very compartmentalized in that the society consists of different insect races each having their own function emerging from the racial trait. Then again also each individual insect in the colonies are compartmentalized and do not behave with hive mentality. To the lowest caste in this hierarchy it is vastly unknown what the purpose or function of the hierarchy is. There is no way of knowing how things can possibly work without a visible leadership or a line of command anywhere. There seems to be no coherence at all. Yet the Hierarchy reorganizes and exists now and forever.

The Great Chtulthur Hierarchy is at the brink of a new rise from a previous fall or maybe a fall from a previous rise only the Formians know for sure. Several star systems go through collapse and resurrection time and again. Those star systems always lie again inside the Hierarchy after the dust settles whatever the claims from neighboring alliances or power structures are, they cannot ever hold long what they made collapse or conquered. This is also a known disturbance to the hierarchy and its mysterious existential purpose especially in the border systems.

The only known diplomacy in the Hierarchy is conflict against all non-hierarchy. This seems to end up in local collapses in the bordering systems very often, but somehow the order of hierarchy becomes reinstalled after a few decades of true chaos.

The cosmology seems to birth new stars in the center of the galaxy from a great stellar forge. During their very long lifetimes the stars seem to travel from the core to the galactic rim and age until extinguishing in the intergalactic void.

No, Sprite is adorably psychotic. She's like a little roman emperor commanding us to kill.

If Arrayan can remember details from before the update but sprite has no memory of things that have been patched or removed, does that mean that if Arrayan or one of the others comes up with an original idea or invention/something not "programed" into the world, that sprite would be unable to understand or recognize it as a whole?

rephrased:

I'm willing to spend spare cash on this, but I can't spend living money on it. This will be a savings project for whatever spare I can save.

For what it's worth, I have asked Dylan a few times to make the site open source so that I (a professional full stack web developer) can contribute to it. Not a ground up redesign, that would be an insane months long project, but stuff like showing replies in the post and integrating that Quest Reader plugin.

>>88350
Oops I didn't notice this post before. I tested it and the dupe detection seems to work well so you can upload whatever quest art you want as long as you're fully tagging it. Having no post number and being out of order would make it so it's harder to detective shit, but if it's fully tagged it's fine.

I'll also upload more fanart threads this weekend, I've been forgetting to.

>post number
If we could somehow associate uploads with post numbers, that would make it easier to things together. (Currently they seem to get tagged with the image name-slash-number, which you can use to find the origin by searching the site, but that's kind of a cludge. The post ID you can stick right in the url).

I uploaded the current fanart thread.
Reminder: Do not tag something unless you actually know what it is. It is difficult to catch people labeling things as the wrong quest/author/artist.
Also, do not tag fetishes like "sweater", it's not valuable enough to go through the thousands of fanart images and tag them by content, tagging more things is far more important.

Friendly reminder to anyone who has posted fanart before: please go through the booru and tag your picture. I would, but I have no idea who drew what anymore.

All finished fanart threads and the 4 major day threads are uploaded now. At this time 837 Tagmes are left of 5507 uploaded pictures. I'll get more minor day threads and such uploaded over time but the vast majority of fanart is now on quest.booru.org and tagged.

I'm doing quest fanart requests for people that tag 200 images.
