So I found this video off of Reddit as I found your post discussing Kayla Larson and her ability to continue writing the Risk of Rain storyline, as of reading your post and watching this video, no offense but I find the thought process to be sort of narrow, but for all I know mine could be as well, but here's what I think. In the dev log 1, Kayla larson mentions that she wants to explore the unknown or unexplained aspects of the risk of rain franchise, for example she mentions 1. High court 2. The Heritics 3. The cyclops brothers, and 4. The space sickness. So in her defense I believe she is in all right mind to want to mess around with these aspects of the story for example we know that the seeker of the storm is from the high court, this is found in the verdant falls log book. So from here we are already expanding on the known universe of the high court, something that is very little explained to us, so why not learn some more about it, now I recognize you don't mention the heritics so I wont talk about them but I will talk about the cyclops gods and the space sickness, now off the bat I do agree that the space sickness is definitly just the fact that space is a vacuum, but its a video game, and fictional sci fi video game, but the issue I have with your point of view, is if we are already dealing with a story of two gods, that have the literal ability to CREATE then why wouldnt kayla larson have the ability to by chance turn the space sickness into somehting magical or special, I mean look at survivors of the void, the void is a literal place that swallows dimensions in the ability to keep its dimension stabile, yet the fog in which it emits is toxic to everything not corrupted, so if we have something like the void, and its fog, why not turn the "Space Sickness" into something that can potentially have weight to the story instead of just leaving it to an all boring "its just space bro" , now as a counter argument humans are able to travel it with the invention of space suits, and portable oxygen, but these other species, and these gods are different biological apsects than humans, so whos to say that thier only issue with space is that they would sufficate, what if the minute they touch space they just rot, or melt, who knows. Now with thier being other space cyclops gods you got to remember that the reason mythrix wanted to teleport in the first place was for the ability to seek out other beings of similar or higher power, while providence wanted to seek out weaker beings and save them. This right here is our main driving force of the risk of rain lore. SO if mythrix already planned to find higher power beings, than whos to stop kayla from writing lore about the potential higher beings that mythrix never even got the chance to meet or even explore, so I believe that kayle IS indeed in the right to want to explore newer gods or even potentially simialar gods such as other cyclops, for example something that I could think of as a quick idea is the chance that now that the gods are dead, it would be cool to see an accidental stronger force, or set of gods, or a god that maybe invade petrichor 5 somehow, or humans somehow accidently end up running into them instead.

@@TheSunDuude People are too comfortable criticizing game development when they have no clue how video games are actually developed. I'm sure GSG had their reasons, but demanding endless content as a gamer is such a stupid take and people need to grow up, out of that mentality. Remember in the early 2000s and 90s? probably not since you're just in your 2nd year of university, but people would typically buy a game, play it for 20-60 hours, then never touch it again. Games didn't use to be endless skinnerboxes with randomly generated content you could play for 2000+ hours. And you know what? that's completely alright. I certainly got my moneys worth when buying DRG and i wouldn't hesitate to do it again. After all, this is way more content than was historically the norm, and for super cheap, too. only $20, $5 when on sale? come on mate, that's like either an average dinner at a restaurant or a Döner Kebab. You're telling me the endless hours of fun you can have with DRG is worth less than a dinner at a restaurant? come on, be realistic now.

We are not sure if Hopoo's DLC2 would be even good. They were already burned out around launch of Vanilla RoR2, and SoTV development was a mess. And on top of that, SoTV logs' writing kinda sucks, its filled with meme references and overall does not add much. That it, because Hopoo outsourced SoTV writing to some random dude whose only previous work was some FNAF spin off. My point is, Gearbox actually has resources and know-how to make a polished, well thought expansion.
@koalabro61188 ай бұрын
Gearbox is not my favorite publisher ever to be certain, but they seem to really actually give a shit about RoR. TBH I don't see a big deal what gender they give Auralionite. The false son could be a fragment of Aurelionite and thus a sort of *son* of hers, or maybe Aurelionite uses interchangeable pronouns, or maybe the False Son is simply another golem that is aware of Aurelionite. It could be a lot of things, but one thing for sure is that the deeper identity of the False Son is not known so saying "the false son is Aurelionite and the loremaster is getting the rock pronouns wrong she doesn't know the lore" is very presumptive to say the least considering the fact that she'd be the one with the ability to know what the lore is, not you or I. I went back to find hard proof that Aurelionite is the False Son as this would prove you right, but all I found was (admittedly loose) counter evidence; 30 seconds into the trailer, when a depiction of Aurelionite on the Guilded Coast is shown, the False Son says "our freedom is long overdue." Either he's saying 'our' as in all of the golems which isn't unlikely, but it could also mean 'our' as in him and Aurelionite. Who knows. Maybe the loremaster doesn't know d$ck from sh$t. I for one am cautiously optimistic. I can't say that the mobile game has inspired much faith but I'm holding out hope. After all, it's not like *we* can do anything about it either way.

The way i interpreted the seeker of storm was the false son isnt golden guardian it is a mixture of the golden gaurdians influence in it being built, built by lumarians in providence image and corrupted by mythryx through the beads of fealty (though the beads arent special literally stated in log for them so thats the first strike for me) another thing i wanted to point out there is in fact a third godly being referred to but is long dead who had given a gift to providence. Yes the golden guardian being given a gender is dumb but they are not the false son because the golden guardian is gaining more influence to try and escape using the false son however i feel as if this was the worst direction to reach out for a dlc they are simply adding more to the lump of clay not refining it like how sotv did by expanding a existing part sure they are saying they are expanding the lore on the golden guardian but the golden gaurdian doesn't got lore they were made by providence with soul by varrying off of mythryx's design and was locked up by mythryx then after for having soul not much lore in prison. The false son will undoubtedly be the focus of the lore which sure they will have either a tiny amount or a whole lot of lore depending on when they decided the lost son was made which would be anywhere between game 1 and 2 but the only way to make this dlc right is by just handing us the entirety of the lore around the false son and even then thats only to keep them from expanding in the wrong direction

I learned about and first got the game on Switch not long after 1.0 released. It was almost immediately one of my favorite games. Got ror1 not long after and loved it just as much! Didn't learn about the console bugs in both until later. Got burnt out for a few months and when I came back learned pc had an update. I couldn't wait to play Bandit, he looked so fun in 3d! Little did I know it would be so many more months until console got it, with such a broken release... it was a really painful wait. About a month before SotV came out I decided to get it on pc so I wouldn't have to wait "months" longer for the dlc, and because mods looked really fun. My poor laptop doesn't run the game very well, but it was enough, and the new content was indeed cool. I eventually also got ror1 on pc for mods, and Starstorm was totally worth it. Highly recommend it to anyone who wants to play the first game. I ended up preferring it over ror2 too, so I'm very excited for rorr. Anyway, back to ror2. It really sucks that console players have had to wait for such a long time for the dlc, but seeing every Hopoo comment section full of nothing but people demanding that they work faster on the game they no longer own gets tiring. I may have been able to "just get it on steam lol" but not everyone can, and they deserve to be able to play it not only with all the newest content, but in a state where everything functions as it's intended to. I hope Gearbox does something soon, their update to an existing game is seemingly progressing slower than the remake that based on the teasers has been being worked on ever since ror2 was in early access... they could at least acknowledge it or give an estimate for its release so we aren't 100% in the dark about everything Tldr: as a former console player Gearbox really needs to do something soon, though they can't really control when Hopoo releases rorr Edit: they acknowledged it!
