GetNerfedOn Posted July 29, 2019 Share Posted July 29, 2019 I've been poking around character speech files for fun, and i've noticed in some of the character strings i see reference to a presumably large creature casting a large silhouette out at sea, such as: that's wicker's file, this is maxwell's file, and this one's wendy, to show a few. They all seem rather afraid of this new creature, which may well be a boss. Thoughts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

reverentsatyr Posted July 29, 2019 Share Posted July 29, 2019 New boss? Heck yea. I searched the definition of "megafauna" to try to find more hints, but it just means a large or giant animal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zeklo Posted July 29, 2019 Share Posted July 29, 2019 All of them: Quote Warly - N/A Wigfrid - "A gargantuan foe approaches!" Maxwell - "We're in for some trouble." Webber - "Don't eat us!" Wendy - "Death casts its black shadow upon us." Wickerbottom - "The megafauna have set their eyes on us." Willow - "Something big's coming!" Wilson - "Uh-oh. Sea monsters!" Winona - "Woah, that's a bigg'un!" Wolfgang - "Wolfgang does not like scary shadow!" Woodie - "Watch out, something's coming!" Wormwood - N/A Wortox - "Hyuyu, something's come to play!" WX-78 - "A GIANT ORGANIC APPROACHES" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AdventZen Posted July 29, 2019 Share Posted July 29, 2019 So, they removed the Malbatross, but added quotes? Seems like they're reworking his design, before dropping this bombshell of a boss. I predict it'll use the seastacks in some way, maybe a roosting place to heal, and we have to mine it to stop? By all means, I just hope it's a boss worth a fight.

Phobiac Posted August 2, 2019 Share Posted August 2, 2019 MasteroftheTDS on the DS amino posted sprites of it. Apparently its called the Malbatross Spoiler I love it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flash.Jonathan Posted August 2, 2019 Share Posted August 2, 2019 It most likely doesn't seem like the Malbatross, to me the Malbatross seems more like a mini-boss to the likes of Spider Queen or Antlion than an actual boss just due to it's stature. But hey maybe it could be, who knows? Image by Watermelen671 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, sadly I too now think Malba is some sort of small-fry after seeing that stature-comparison pic. C'est la vie! Probably the gargantuan creature hinted by those examination quotes is some fish-type of thing, we'll see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wicker specifically refers to a plural amount of megafauna. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wicker specifically refers to a plural amount of megafauna. That could actually be the case, I would imagine from 2 to 4 of them would be in a small group and if any is agitated the others would flock by to help. They may even have behavior akin to the Tallbirds with nests on specially formed seastacks and would respawn every few days after being killed.

Willow - "Something big's coming!" Examples of quotes referring to whatever it is as singular. Also, "their" is used as a gender-neutral pronoun, it doesn't necessarily mean plural. Don't get me wrong, I am also super excited of the possibility to fight a flock of these things, but eh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
