Wigfrid and Webber know forbidden knowledge.


Recommended Posts

So I was browsing the character strings to see what the other characters said about Wickerbottom's books and lo and behold I found these

--BOOK_METEOR = "Read a passage and call forth Ragnarok!",

--BOOK_METEOR = "I'm not a good reader, but he is!",

I do believe "BOOK_METEOR" refers to Wickerbottom's book from Shipwrecked called "the joy of volcanology" but why would Wigfrid and Webber need strings for said book if they'll never come in contact with it? And Shipwrecked isn't in Don't starve together...yet...or maybe never will be.

@KrisRF

And yes I know you once said that you make mistakes by putting Shipwrecked strings into DST, but those you can't even see in Don't starve Shipwrecked I'm quite sure.

Edit: I recently found out there's more quotes for the meteor books if anyone is interested.

Spoiler

Wilson

--BOOK_METEOR = "The foreword just says \"Hope you like dragoons.\"",

Willow

--BOOK_METEOR = "I'll burn through this book!",

Wolfgang

I couldn't find one for Wolfgang sadly.

Wendy

--BOOK_METEOR = "Reading is a dangerous thing.",

Wx-78

Couldn't find any for Wx-78

Woodie

None for Woodie.

Wes

...

Maxwell

--BOOK_METEOR = "Reading strange books has always worked out for me before.",

I really can relate to Hybridman Montrosity here. Cause why not, we can wish right? That are some of those sneaky updates being putted to give HYPE..

 

Ok, gonna go now............

Because she likes to leave those written just in case Klei ever decides to actually add the DLC?

"Kris, no need to write the SW quotes, we won't port it over."
Kris: "Alright no prob." *doesn't*
"Hey Kris, have you written those SW quotes already?"
Kris: ... But I thought... but you said... but......... but.....................

Some strings got switched up when moving stuff over and Kris probably just wrote something there anyway since her job is to write awesome stuff.

They still write/update strings relating to stuff that was unused or impossible to examine in-game, for the sake of completetion. The Swimming Horror and Skittish from Shipwrecked for example have strings despite the fact they can't be examined, and Maxwell has a line for examining his NPC entity and that giant head. It's all just for completion sake.

Spider can read magic incantations? That's pretty interesting. Or even more interesting, is Spider talking? probably the former, but either way...

INTERESTING.

Does this mean the body that Webber hosts in has actual intelligence?

They boy has taken onto properties of the spider (e.g. strong stomach), just like the spider has taken onto properties of the boy (e.g. physique), so it is save to assume that they "merged" at least partially. Whilst they may not be able to communicate, it is entirely possible that the spider is still alive independently and capable of thinking.

Hey I updated the post to include other quotes I was too lazy to add, I think Maxwell's is my favorite, Wes comes in at a close 2nd.
