And what does it make you think Don't Starve Merms can actually swim? ˙͜>˙

Now I wish they could swim in sw

They can swim, it's implied.

They swam to the forest(?) and SW.
They don't actually swim in game, which is tragic, but seeing as how we're getting what seems to be a merm and the fact merms won't go on boats unlike pigs/rabbits there's a possibility both might be updated. Looking at you, Hounds.

Otherwise Sammy says the sick have taken off to the sea, implying they've swam away.

Ermm, you sure you're on the right thread? It's always been about leaked content, baseless speculation about what new additions might entail etc. etc.

The Speculation part I had to add because too many people were theorizing about stuff that was derailing the topic.

Speculating meant what certain stuff in the game files might've done or might do, an example of this would be the New Character lines, gnarwhale and otter. 

But I suppose if it's leading to more confusion I should just remove it then, eh?

Only about discussions and leaked content that watermelen likes apparetly 

No, it always has been, and always will be, about stuff that's in the game. You're more than welcome to discuss Wurt here once he's released, but until then, not here.

[Lammarr 1,063]

Hey folks just to not explode poor watermelen's head please discuss about Wurt here:

I'm sorry but that makes no sense. The datamined content aren't in the game. They're in the files sure, but not the game. And what about Malbatross for example? It was in the files but then got removed. Were we not supposed to talk about that?

If you don't want to talk about Wurt here that's fine, but I don't think this reason, this excuse, is valid.

Wurt's not even in the files, there's nothing here aside from a vague icon in a dev's inventory and a line of flavor text.

Also, the Malbatross isn't a good example, because it could actually be spawned into the game. It was in the files, and therefore was in the game.

You're making an apples to oranges comparison. A simple screenshot of an unreleased icon in a developer's inventory isn't the same as something that's been unimplemented but still exists within the game's files. Like I've said before, you're more than welcome to discuss Wurt here when it's released, and therefore in the game's files, but until then there are other more appropriate threads for people to gush about and speculate in.

No you missed my point entirely. It was later REMOVED, and could NOT be spawned. Were we supposed to stop talking about it at that point?

We...kinda did though.

You're still missing my point. Wurt isn't even released, there are no files whatsoever. Period.

There were files of the malbatross, and people can save it, like most did. It's tangibility my friend; unless you have access to Wurt's files the discussion doesn't belong here. Simple as that. This isn't a theory thread, this isn't a speculative leak thread. There are several threads already dedicated to that. This is a thread about data mining files from the game, a thread about the game's assets, models, etc. If it was in the game's files at one point, it's still fair game. But if there are NO files, no anims, soundbytes, it doesn't belong here.

Info is info my dude. It's all tangible. If you don't want it here for whatever personal reasons fine. People are still going to pop in here and ask about it.

I'd recommend dropping the "Data Mining" part of the title altogether. This seems more like asset extraction at people's requests. 

At least that'll stop it from being misleading.

Leaks aren't data mining though, you seem to entirely miss the point of that. Data mining is just looking through the game's files, looking for information like code, textures, anims, and sounds. That's it.

There's currently a lull in the influx of new content, so I do requests to pass the time until the next update rolls over us. Like I've said before, once Wurt is released I'm sure there'll be new content, and people are welcome to discuss it then. 

 

ONCE WURT IS RELEASED PEOPLE CAN TALK ABOUT IT HERE. I WILL BE SURE TO POST ANY NEW CONTENT WHEN THAT OCCURS.

AS IT STANDS RIGHT NOW THERE IS NOTHING MORE THAN A SCREENSHOT AND FLAVOR TEXT. THIS IS NOT DATA MINING, AND SHOULD BE DISCUSSED ELSEWHERE. 

Now can we please cease this discussion as it's only further derailing this thread.

You're taking data mining far too literally, but whatever. Close your eyes to it. I don't really care. One less reason to come to this thread.

EDIT: Since people still seem to be confused let's put it this way:
What reason do people come to this thread?

To ask for raw in-game assets?
Or to see potential content that might be coming in the future?

Okay then...what you're saying literally makes no sense but at this point I'm done with this conversation. I've laid out the guidelines of what is considered on or off topic for this thread, and all you've managed to do is throw it all out the window and say that I should allow everything because you think it's considered relevant.

You seem to be the only person continuing this debacle, as people have respectfully moved their discussion to another thread. 

Regardless, fare the well, and don't let the door hit you on the way out. I couldn't care less whether or not you come to this thread, if you do that's cool, if you don't, that's also cool. If you think that's going to offend me you're sorely mistaken.

Anyways I have a headache and am going to go yeet myself off the nearest cliff. Good day.

You seem to mistake compliance with respect. In no way have I said everything should be allowed, you keep on missing the point entirely, or at the very least dismissing it. My question still stands: is this a place where assets are being pulled—end of story—or a hub for trying to data mine upcoming content? And, should I need to clarify—data mine through all means. You know what else isn't in the files? The new Wortox skin—at least the lower half. Why? Because it's on console. Is that something that should not be shared?

I'm asking for clarification, and have been yet you keep avoiding answering.

Is this a place for people to ask for assets?
Or is this a place for data mining future content? And if so, why are you limiting the means of doing so?

EDIT:

Here are ASSETS pulled from STEAM. Does this not belong in this ASSET thread because it's from STEAM and not the game? Even though it's FOR the game? And mind you, I DATA MINED these in the traditional sense of the word. Just from a different location.

I understand I haven't been presenting my argument well, and have become frustrated by it, but this is a good example no?

Or just let people do whatever. Don't act like everyone's on topic 100% of the time. Data mining isn't that serious so relax and just enjoy the Speculation which is in the title. @watermelen671

If you be toxic and drive off everyone who asks you are going to build a bad rep for this thread and for yourself. Just let them speculate so 50 other threads dont need to be made.

I for one far more enjoy snippets of news about new content that might be added or potential one, even concepts that were later removed, than to see, for example, "pls post me a pigeon animation, ok, here's your pigeon prefab" or pseudo-memes this thread is around 50% about. Fair enough, I thought was mainly data mining, then I saw some other stuff was added in title to justify the inherent off-topic.. Ok.

I think that's fine. Even from the beginning this thread was more about pulling assets out. It especially helps keep the thread from being buried. Not to mention it's probably the most appropriate thread for it.

My qualm was more so concern that the "datamining" part of the thread was getting shoved under the couch. I'd make a new thread, but it seems redundant when this is a perfectly good one (so long as the exact things people are submitting and commenting on isn't censored).
