The Journey Of The Chonkiest Slugcat

[@bag143_]

i love gourmands ending because its such a slap in the face to the Ancients. gourmand is just chillin like "hey ancients, maybe if you just enjoyed life a little you wouldnt be so obsessed with killing yourself" and i love that for him

[@ahumanb3ingthatexists67]

ironically, even though the ancients were much more advanced than slug-cat-kind could ever hope to be, just going "lmao I'm here and having fun" is a much better solution for living forever than anything them or their creations ever came up with.

The ending where the slugcat makes friends with all of the other slugcats becomes availabe to regular slugcat and monk after you beat gourmand. So you can get that ending with a bunch of slugcats.

[@catpoke9557]

Sort of. The slugcats all left after gourmand finished his journey (hence why survivor fell down a hole, they were migrating to the new lands) so the tree is abandoned. Still, it's a relatively happy ending since at least you get to go home. Not sure what happens if you go to the tree as monk after survivor gets there, though. I think I'll try it

33:28 Green lizards are slowest and least likely to attack. However they have the second biggest health pool right after reds and their jaw strenght is equal. Out of all lizards, green lizard is the most likely one to win against red in 1v1 scenario.

I feel like his muscles are just so much more developed as other slugcats are very lightweight, so he's constantly exercising his muscles by just existing and as a result developed a killer spear throw but it exhausts him in one throw

It's honestly amazing writing that shows that wisdom has many different forms and it doesn't necessarily correlate to how intelligent you are in a field.

I Love Skurry's voice so much they sound so kind. Also the noises the frogs make are very cute.

[@proxy1035]

from what i understand both moon and 5p sit ontop a massive and solid foundation that was built to avoid erosion from the heavy rains (i assume every iterator has a foundation). said foundation has karma gates all around it for transport, which 5p closed off at some point. you can see a top-down map at 30:32 showing both moon's and 5p's cans in white, the round foundation, and the red marked area outside of it. 38:25 i theorize that in the past the foundation was roughly level with the outside area, but due to time and rain it eroded down so now the foundation stands as a massive plateau. alsoi can't wait to see skurries reaction to the other slugcats, including the secret one >;)

[@T3sl4]

You also see the perimeter wall (and comm tower/chimney, exterior, etc.) from top of the scenic tree. Which... I think my favorite vista is still top of the wall, but that one's a close, close 2nd. So good.

26:43 is very much an old thing, and a hard lesson you only had to learn once. The orange lizard room at the wall is not as safe from the rain as you think because the shaking stops you from finishing that parkour section. Your only way is down, into the deadly rain.

[@T3sl4]

It takes a lot of tries and some tricky boosting (try boosting upward on the pole just shy of the top, then jump off the tip) but it can be made. Even more attempts to cross the horizontal pole without falling off. The rip is if you're carrying anything, it's... I don't think it's impossible, but it's unlikely as hell at least, like one in thousands. I got caught there once, carrying neuron flies, so, going up empty-handed was pointless.

I think that Survivor is Apple flavor because both are basic and original. Monk is tangerine flavored because its sweet, and a citrus like monk's color. Hunter is blood flavored because... It is hunter. Gourmand is Watermelon covered in chocolate (cursed) flavored because both are big, round, CHUMK AND DIEBETES. Rivulet is strawberry flavored because both are chaotic and sweet. Spearmaster is a mix between pineapple and plum flavors because the plum is purple and the pineapple is tangy and sharp. Saint is chocolate because saint is calm and easy and chocolate is calm and easy. Edit: saint is green apple.

33:30 To those curious, the Green Lizard is actually fully immune to all Lizard bites, meaning that in a 1v1 scenario, they’ll win 100-0. This does not apply for being bit by tamed Lizards, but does apply if they themselves are tamed, making them indispensable allies in any areas they can reach.
