[@kikirv_]

This journal is very reminiscent of those encyclopedia kind of books series about dragons, magic, dinosaur, etc. And I was literally obsessed with them when i was a child!! Through seminar I was just itching to take the book and run through pages, add drawing, compare different creatures, just casually obsess and dive into this world, customize my own book, document everything and ask questions. You did wonderful job with creating this world and making us eager to explore it. Thank you so much, very much hope to see more!! :]

And here I was for a moment getting excited for someone to reference the hidden gem of an old video game *_literally called IMPOSSIBLE CREATURES (please someone get that reference I can't be the only one who's played that game)_* - on a serious note great video I can't wait for whats to come of this project in the future!

[@nathandavis435]

I’ve never heard of this but now I’m curious to check it out!

[@theAlmightyu]

I loved that game so much. I played it so frequently the disc eventually broke in half from wear. And I thought the same thing when I saw the title.

[@Juliet-Belcouleur]

Everything about this works ! And gosh darn, bio-ecological variants of creatures are amongst my favourite things !

[@erinkarp]

The ability to revert enigmorphs to their nascent form seems like a fascinating game mechanics, I can already think of several uses: 1. When catching(?) an engimorph, it reverts back to its nascent form, so you train it yourself 2. As a way of going back to the other forms for their unique benefits 3. Potentially to keep making your enigmorph stronger? like a prestige system

[@WesPresto]

I really appreciate the inclusion of "real life" photgraphs depicting some enigmorphs in the wild.

[@rosedevoir]

The "cute" variant each one gets in this video definitely appeals to me colorwise LOL the moon jelly one is my favorite! Loove the sketch of it having a sauropod body!!

[@shinygamer3424]

Your work on Enigmorphs is a huge inspiration for me. I don't remember if I've commented this in an older video, but its inspired me to try and develop my own fantasy setting of monster catchers in hopes of making it into a ttrpg I can play with my sisters and share it with others. I have little idea where to start on what to focus on first, and could use some advice, but I'm optimistic, and seeing how you build upon your setting is always a great motivator!

[@randalfthewizard6446]

I still haven't gotten over how fun the hazy cryptid/pseudoscience vibe is the idea of looking into rumors and mysteries and finding not just like, a big ape or an alien but weird little guys that actually feel beyond human comprehension is really appealing and then you get to be friends with them but that barely makes them make any more sense

[@ethangnasher3848]

Passerbys watching in horror as i pull my Lexi out from my torso as if it was a gate to another dimension, with eerie, skin crawling sounds as the cherry on top: 💀 The enigmorphs beginning to question what the hell am I, I don't eat, don't sleep, walk for miles upon miles on end for days at a time then register every inch of an area to get every Enigmorph registered on that damn book: 🤔 Truly, the playable characters are man-made horrors beyond comprehension.

Thank you so much for Borabark, I love him so much. Everyone uses gravestone imagery, I appreciate the attention to ashes. My cremated grandparents are currently on a special shelf in my bedroom. They always asked for crazy stuff to be done with their ashes as jokes over the years, so becoming creatures would have been a great plan to them. 😂

I wanna see a biblically accurate angel enigmorph

[@Maren_Arts]

i would LOVE to see an angel enigmorph. maybe it goes from just a gem with wings floating around it to some some sort of multi-eyed bird creature, to a humanoid bird beast. im not sure what type it’d be, but im sure it’d be awesome

[@toetotipthatsabart5048]

My first entry to my Lexi Innominatus is an odd little creature I call the *Famasol,* an enigmorph I speculate to be Nascent Form due to its small and delicate stature. Famasol appears to mimic the concept of an umbrella, though ironically, they seem to be afraid of rain or sunshine, only appearing during clear nights. They are slender, appearing like a normal umbrella when they are asleep or otherwise incapacitated. However, during activity, their canopy-like outer layer springs up and reveals a long, thin body, devoid of any humanlike traits besides their single appendage - a hand. In my observation of their wake-up patterns, their hand uncurls itself from a tightly-wound handle-shape to a paper-thin hand. I have only seen one aesthetic variant of Famasol. The canopy is a rich, vibrant green, while the interior is alternating rings of white lace patterns and flat blues. The cane body is brown. I believe this is a camouflage attempt, although unsuccessful in the wintertime, when grass is covered by snow. Famasols are easy to scare, and will go dormant at the simplest sound. -I have not attempted contact with a Famasol yet, although I doubt it can hurt me.- TOXIC GAS. RELEASED FROM END TIP. CANNOT SEE.

[@Twenty_Third_Nerd2347]

I think a very interesting Enigmorph idea would be something to do with electricity and/or cloud phenomena. It could be Aerial type if that isn’t limited to just birds, and possibly have some mytho-inspired elements as a reference to how ancient people interpreted lightning as divine.

[@chriss0686]

Id actually like to see enigmorph concepts based around casino games such as dice and cards An ideea that might not quite work but i still find fun is that the apex form can become an entire casino building itself

[@arielalejandrodelfabro1740]

So…. a few notes First, I love the new introduced line. And how it experiments with the notion we had before Like… each Enigmorph had previously just entered one category Now is two. And… I think is genious the idea of the Candle passing from fire, to flora, to fae. All keeping the light type Makes me wonder how my ideas would translate with that, since I made them following the idea that they could only be flora, fauna or construct Since nascent Enigmorphs can be of more complex types as well, makes me think of how to change them but still make them have sense Is there any set idea for that? Like… are nascent Enigmorphs too young to be faes? We have seen a pair of types of the same group together (fire and light). So… can that be done with other pairings? The entry of the pumpkin crab says that most Enigmorphs take the shape of a sea creature. Is that true? We will see more marine creatures than artificial/floral/other animal creatures? So many questions And I love it!

[@benlegall]

Will we ever get the conclusion or continuation of the events of World Eater (kaijune)?

[@yo5tan]

I'm really digging the use of more mature themes in this series so far, like death, decay and sexuality, and I look forward to seeing what other concepts you come up with! I feel like there's a missed opportunity though with not calling Abborent 'Arborent', although that might be a bit too on the nose 😜

[@Turtlelord963]

Im getting Magnus archives vibes from all of this and I love it so much.

[@christiansherlock6662]

[@SteampunkFridgeRider]

[@crylemite]

seeing as the enigmorphs only have three forms, I'm guessing the idea to be able to mix different traits (for example having a lucernamaris with its moon jelly coloration but the tendrils of the deep sea variant) have been scrapped

[@Subjectively]

Yeah, I think so. Just gonna do three different variants per Enigmorph

[@shwoopyrrale1694]

so if most of the enigmorphs are aquatic-looking, what about a lava lamp? Maybe something that goes through fire, water, and fae? I don't know the type matchups, but it seems fun!

[@Subjectively]

I do like the idea, but the story takes place in the late 1800s, lava lamps didn’t exist yet! Maybe a funky enigmorph that eventually inspires the design of a lava lamp…

[@emanuelrojas2]

Perhaps a creature that mimics a smile.

[@Thibbs-vp6gm]

God I want this to be a game so bad! I would say I want it to be real life if most of these engigmorphs weren’t so terrifying and violent! I would love to have this candle like following me around!

Have you considered creating an enigmorph based on the concept of “orb” optic phenomena on old cameras. Back in the day, people often connected them to ghosts.

[@a3kargo]

Even though it hasnt been talked about yet, the corruption cycle seems cool. Wondering if it's like the digimon life cycle in the digimon world games where each cycle the enigmorph will become more powerful. If that's the case I definitely like it cause if you like a non final stage enigmorph more than the final you can have it and it still be powerful.

[@Princess_Loaf_]

[@sojou.RN.]

By the way, the carapatch black and white photo is amazing. Sings the eerie note perfectly.

[@gideonsparks3183]

what if you could be able to keep the enigmorphs in a room somewhere where you can store them in their original forms. For example, the borabark line reverts back to a pot and waxling to a candle. You can select these forms when going on expeditions.
