You guys are commenting on the fics you read right? You’re at least leaving kudos on the Astarion smut and the pairs that have less than 20 fics for them too? You’re bookmarking stories you really like that are still being updated and ones that haven’t been touched in over a year right?

You know that even the smallest interactions are like cocaine to fic writers right? You understand how important a string of emoji hearts left behind on chapter at three am is right?? Right????

You’re treating AO3 like a community and not a content factory….right?

there is just So Much worldbuilding going on in palia

[superbwhispersconnoisseur]

now i get to do crime what is going on in this farming game

[superbwhispersconnoisseur]

I just had this really fun AU idea in my head that combined my two favorite fandoms, Palia and The Arcana. So it's like the regular Arcana universe, ok, but you stuff characters in from Palia at random. So Reth is now the palace chef, Ashura is actually the owner of the Rowdy Raven, Tish owns a furniture store in the city, and Hassian is sort of friends with Muriel and they actually go hunting together, etc.

"you need a break" they say. "you play too much palia" they say. whatever. flow tree southwest of lighthouse

[superbwhispersconnoisseur]

palia should let us romance sifuu not only because the alternative is basically a hate crime against sapphics but because the potential for torturing hassian every time he's a dipshit (read: all the time) is gold. "ugh unbearable human" that's not what YOUR mom said last night. "i don't have time for you" now is that any way to talk to your stepmom. "you suck!!!" behave or i'll fuck your mom you insufferable edgelord

[superbwhispersconnoisseur]

PLEASE EINAR JUST LOVE ME I FINALLY UNDERSTAND THE ONENESS

[superbwhispersconnoisseur]

Me : So anyway what I'm saying is I'm romancing you cause you're so stuck up it gets cute but if I'm honest I'd rather be absolutely railed by your mom unfortunately she's not an option

Hassian : ...You what now

Reasons to play Palia:

Cozy, gentle farming/village sim a bit like a combination of Harvest Moon and Animal Crossing, but online.

Most of the villagers are romanceable if you're into that. Either way they all have backstories that you learn by befriending them.

One time I went fishing and pulled up a charcuterie.

There's robots. One of them is romanceable because the fanbase demanded it in alpha.

You can't pet the dog but you can talk to him:

The fishing and bug catching systems are unique and fun.

When people find a rare/special resource like a Flow tree or palium ore, they'll call over zone chat to tell people where it is because everyone that hits a resource node will get the same reward no matter how many people are on it.

Crabs count as bugs so you can catch them!

Sifuu sent me a brick in the mail.

Cat people come from the moon, allegedly. Which moon? Probably the one that isn't on fire.

Concerned about too many people stripping the resources? The game is instanced and each instance only has a handful of players at a time. Even if they're all mining, or chopping trees, the nodes respawn fast enough to compensate. Plants and other things on the ground are not shared, so grab all those you want.

You can hunt for meat and leather, and there are a variety of animals that require different methods. Some of them teleport or clone themselves.

Speaking of hunting, you do so with a bow, and there's no blood or dead body. Bagged animals literally disappear and leave behind a bag which you loot.

You can climb and glide kind of like Breath of the Wild/Tears of the Kingdom.

The housing system is pretty robust, almost like WildStar. You start with a tent and then get a house which you can add rooms to. You can find, buy, and craft furnishing and sometimes villagers will gift them to you.

There's no HP and no penalty for falling, so feel free to yeet yourself from high places in order to explore!

Listen I absolutely want to join you at the flow trees but the thing is...the thing is I'm lost as hell
