Next Event Speculation Thread: The Verge


Recommended Posts

I've been popping in here every now and then. You guys' ideas are cool and interesting.

I was pondering skins that were distinct from previous skins while being somewhat fitting to the weirdness/insanity issue with the Verge. I think I was mainly inspired by harlequin Wes for this idea...

VENETIAN MASQUERADE!

I might draw some character skins in this vein. I'll have to tone down the craziness so that the ideas could potentially work in-game.

Since frivolous fashion is beneficial for sanity, perhaps resources/currency could go towards increasingly extravagant costumes in an effort to maintain your mind. The costumes could have interesting consequences too, like reduced running and action speed.

Thoughts?

This is a really cool idea and i never would have thought of it, but doesn't anyone think that Klei will keep the name ending in ORGE? Though Verge would be just as good I've been looking into words that could connect to sanity that end in orge and found Sorge. This word means 'worry' or 'concern' which leads me to think that this will be the next name.

Sorry to be a broken record but do you have a art thread? I really like what you did with these. The poses tell you about their personalities.

I can see the whole aesthetic being like a rated G/PG version of Eyes Wide Shuit with a chess/Illuminati theme. I'll have to look this up later but I notice a huge alchemy theme with Don't Starve's iconography and Illuminati would fit the Chess/eye theme pretty close(even along the lines of Alistair Crowley). Just look at this Masonic architecture:

There's also that unfinished Harliquin/circus Webber skin I've seen:post-563359-0-76336400-1440724576_thumb.

So I'd be definitely up for a Venetian/Masonic themed event.

@Wesminator, have you seen this thread yet?

Im totally down with the idea of Venetian skins and Masonic or Rococo inspired architecture n q n/ hopefully the Verge is maze-like with some (4 to 6 player) team puzzle solving aspects. Hnnngh!!

I'd be in huge favor of a dungeon crawler, to be honest with you. Think Pokémon Mystery Dungeon, with randomly generated floors and enemy placements, and lots of loot to use.A more explorative-based event would be really cool, as combat is unfortunately, a little oversaturated. Still would love for the Forge to return though.

I'd love a event along the lines of Misforune. The defunct RPG had a interesting maze-like mechanic I'd love to see be brought back.

 The screenshots of Misfortune remind me of the very ancient Mac game, Scarab of Ra, which I’ve often wondered if it was in influence on Don’t Starve. First-person, you go through a series of ever-larger mazes looking for food/gold and escaping monsters. You can starve, but the most striking commonality are monkeys that steal stuff out of your inventory. When the Tail o’ Three Cats came along, it seemed like another connection because the main way you get the monkey to drop your stuff is by cracking a bullwhip at it. Still haven’t tried that on the splumonkeys, though, because I usually just kill them.

If there are any Klei developers reading this, I would love to know if any of you used to play it.

There’s an online implementation here: https://lightningmanic.github.io/

If this won't be an event, I think someone needs to mod it in ^w^ sounds wonderful, any skin set ideas you had for them?

I know this stuff's late but about the skins in the mod ( verge one ), isn't breaking the rules?

It is being made to be a mod currently. I have an idea : if the gamemode is enabled then character skins would be too?

 

You could always swap the character builds with the skinned ones in the event, that won't break the rules

Previously someone talked about nightmarish skins so I drew Webber (as always) and I had an idea for WX78 but it didn't come out right.

I wanted for Webber to look a lot different so I took the look of the head shape for Gladiator skin and made a new mouth and I gave little spider boy 2 more arms cause why not.

 

I wanted to make WX78 look like some kind of machine that Dr Eggman or Dr Willy would build and it didn't look great I added teeth that didn't help so I gave up on that for now
