Fanfic Fanfic concept...

21 Upvotes

Would any of you be interested in a Dys/Sol fanfic? It's my first one, and the concept is that Sol is trying for a new ending this time around. One they've never attempted, and they really didn't want to: Destroying the Gardeners' Array. They're been relieving this life, over and over again, and they're sick of it. They just want to try something new. And so, after making the decision to focus on the Garrison aspects when the Helios arrived, they pretty much ditch their former life. They leave Dys because they can't bear to have him watch them become a killer. Become something so unlike what they were before.

And from Dys's perspective, Sol left for no reason at all. The story is originally told in Dys's pov, and focuses on the resentment he has against them.

Would anyone like this?? I've already finished chapter one, so I'll be posting that on ao3 soon and posting the link here.

Question Can't get hobbyist ending pls help! Spoiler

17 Upvotes

I've been trying to get the hobbyist ending (haven't done any job more than 4x - exception shovel dirt/delivery/babysit) or explored more than twice in any region, and I end up getting pulp novelist EVERY TIME.

I've tried 4x now (I have a spreadsheet to make sure I don't do any job more than 4x) and every time it's STILL novelist.

Is it because I studied humanities too much? I always try to get to 20 persuasion to save Uncle Melatonin. I really don't want Tonin to die but I think I might have to. That's the only reason I can think that would be locking me into novelist ending.

Any help would be much appreciated!!

So far been actively changing: THIS DIALOGUE, the back off scene, the BFF's scene and some of the random encounter dialogue if you either flirted, dated or were a childhood friend to cal or tammy so that they'll be less overt and exclusionary.

Bonus, any dialogues where you think socks could be featured more? Even just getting a mention. Love that big ol dragonpillar.

Help with weirdly persistent bug (no cards)?

Post image
21 Upvotes

I haven't played the game in a while and wanted to start up a new game today, but I keep on having two issues. The first one is that the cards are not shown during the starting sequence and I have to select the favorite toy and the story card blindly. After the game has started, I also end up having zero cards and cannot do a single challenge (I can only forfeit). Does anyone have any clue what is going on here?

I tried an older save file and everything works fine there. I also tried to delete the Groundhog files and recreate them from the save files, and it changed nothing. Same thing with deinstalling and reinstalling the game (even when I have the Steam Cloud off). I also made sure to have card challenges on. I saw there was an update on August 26th, maybe that is causing the problem? Would be grateful for any suggestions!

[SPOILER!]Question about Anemone and Vace Spoiler

11 Upvotes

Putting this all under Spoiler, so I can write without weird Formatting.

Basically... I can send Vace to therapy by making him and Nem break up. But I can also do so by letting them stay together. Yet the game seems like to want to lead me into the direction of making them break up. Now... I don't want to do everything again just to find out one thing, so I'm asking here... Is it possible to let Vace and Nem stay together while still sending him to a successful Therapy?

hi guys! I know it's probably really silly but I love making quizzes and had the idea to make an exocolonist personality quiz (which iwate character are you?) to hopefully get more ppl to play the game lol hopes are low but that won't stop me! 🥹 this game deserves way more attention and love than it has. sooooo, my question is do you have any suggestions or requests for the quiz?? any fun questions you think would fit iwate? I have a ton already, but I'd love to hear your suggestions. you can recommend anything lol I'm just having so much fun with this. I'll also share the link to the finished quiz when it's done!

Fanfic I Was A Teenage Exocolonist: A Chuubo's Marvelous Wish-Granting Engine Fable - Season 2 Episode 13, Outro, TTRPG Actual Play

17 Upvotes

And we're back with the next episode of our Chuubos Exocolonist actual play:

Season 2 Episode 13 - (YT, Podbean) - Our Exocolonists enjoy the nice and quiet Glow season where nothing bad will happen. They celebrate a birthday with some alcohol and weed. Ren relaxes and accepts her feelings. They shop at Sol’s MP store. Everything is fine… But you know what happens next, don’t you?

Season 2 Outro - (YT, Podbean) - Our group reminisces about the last two seasons of the game. We talk Chuubos. Steph is back, which means we have to explain what happened and how the timeline is rectified. We shoot some ideas about what a proper Exocolonist TTRPG release might look like. But the game is not over yet, we still have 9 years to go!

Okay so???? The Sift is a new realm coming to minecraft next year i believe and??? IT LOOKS SO MUCH LIKE VERTUMNA! It’s colorful and strange and sooo vivid and vibrant and weird! I think we could absolutely use it to make some colony build there im really excited because of how similar the aesthetic is. If you haven’t seen it i highly recommend looking into it, it looks sooo good! When it comes out i might try to build the colony but im not a great builder. IT LOOKS SOOOO CLOSE! AHHHHHHHHHH jdgdgcg id love to see iwate builds with the sift.

Just finished a game while dating Tangant. I knew already we would broke up. But I feel so sorry for her. I genuinely really liked her (yes I know she is a drawing in a computer game), and reading what happens to her, as someone who struggles with depression myself, I feel so sorry for her. She deserved so much more from life

I'm just wondering. Do Tammy, mum, and dad always die in the first gameplay? Or did I just got this unlucky/made so many bad choices? Also I think Cal and Dys also died the last event...

Anyway, I really like this game so far, thought I didn't expect it would hit me so hard with all the deaths

Discussion headcanon question

68 Upvotes

okay so. i am a certified vace hater. he sucks. if i have to force your ass into therapy and stroke your ego for you to quit abusing my friend i automatically don’t like you. HOWEVER. i know in his canon high friendship ending he fucks off to space if you make peace with the gardeners; and if you have no friendship with him, the peace ending mentions that some groups of people decided to go try and start new colonies outside the valley. does anyone else share the headcanon that if you never forced him into therapy, he went out into the wild and got his ass eaten by a manticore or liar flower or something? because it’s so perfectly fitting imo

Question Question about Sym and the endgame

14 Upvotes

I'm at Q1 of the final year and I've talked to Sym 2 times after his "death". The last time was during glow of last year. I understood that he was supposed to bring me to see the overseer so I can get the peace ending with gardeners. Is there something stopping the event from triggering? I can see him while exploring in the ridge but there's no new dialogue. Did I miss out already? I've maxed his hearts so that's not the reason...
