isolanni Posted February 28, 2016 Share Posted February 28, 2016 I've only played for 10 days, but haven't found a single pig village. Do I have to build my own? They were so charming in DS.

Developer ImDaMisterL Posted February 28, 2016 Developer Share Posted February 28, 2016 Oh no. In Shipwrecked, pigs were replaced by Boars. They're a bit more vicious than pigs, and their houses can be found scattered on random islands. I don't think there's such a thing as a Boar village either...

DeputyDeath Posted February 28, 2016 Share Posted February 28, 2016 There are islands with unusually large numbers of pig houses (like 5+), and I have found 3 clustered together. However, I don't think that a wild boar village is an official feature in the world generation, so don't spend too long looking for one.

It would make sense too. The boars are 'wild' animals, and so are more savage and haven't developed any real society; which is why they tend to live alone or in small groups. In RoG, they are pigs rather than boars, and aren't described as 'wild'. Pigs are animals that you only really find under human control in farms, and can therefore be classed as a more 'civilised' animal than the boars. This would explain why they are more open to your presence and often live in villages with a clear leader and farms. It's like Lord of the Flies, only with pigs and not humans. The wild boars show us what the pigmen are like with no real social structure, which is no more than animals Link to comment https://forums.kleientertainment.com/forums/topic/64893-pig-villages/#findComment-727968 Share on other sites More sharing options...

oldruthlace Posted February 28, 2016 Share Posted February 28, 2016 Yeah boar villages don't really seem to fit. I could see tribal boar men, like the guardian pigs being in groups, especially if they were in or near the volcano. I'm imagining a viking styled row boat of them rowing in circles...

I don't know if Klei meant for this, but I really appreciate details like this thrown in a different world.
