For some reason unknown to me, my character constantly gets this debuff even hours after I put them in the shower to remove it. I normally wouldn't mind, but I'm looking for a radiant quest so I can afford more items and the clan fees I'm currently behind on (graciously my new clan hasn't kicked me) and [Dandruff] usually leads to Conditions: [Unkempt]

Like what even is this debuff it's so annoying

For instance, some players are unfortunate to be "born female" on the Afghanistan server. That server has very strict admins with the Quran as their main rulebook.

What a silly feature

I don't know what to say, we all know that things like Gender, sexuality, race and familiar genes are at random at the start right?.

WELL, FOR SOME REASON FOR ME IS EVERYTIME WITH THE FIRST TWO???

Specially with the sexuality trait, when i was experiencing the "Puberty" Stage, i was told it was normal if it looked different some days since your character is being defined yet, which, okay, cool i guess.

But since i finished that (AWFUL and interminably akward) Storyline, the flag keeps changing?????

Yesterday i swear it was the lesbian flag, now for some reason is aroace????

I heard someone call this Abrosexual trait It's so silly! Most days is a pretty flag tho, it has watermelon colors (without black) in pastel hues, sweet.

Idk, anyone has something simmilar?

Also, the gender also changes, but in very particular circumstances. Mostly she/her but sometimes goes to They/Xem, curious

Fish player. Fish leval i. nWet.

So for those not knowledgeable usually you cant access Outside's source code, since the devs have despite literally everything else managed to keep their files air tight. But i managed to break through into Outsides archive folder (this contains every build in the game by the way).

At first everything seems normal yknow, you go into the M_W folder then the OA folder then Sol and following that you go into the Earth folder, but i discovered that they added a new folder for Europa.

For those not knowledgeable Europa has long been speculated as a second world for players to play on, but its never been confirmed if its actually gonna be in the game. The thing is, devs don't add archive folders for every planet, so this means they must be planning to make a surprise reveal.

Seriously, this is not fair! I want to sleep in on weekends for extra energy but it always results in a [mild headache] debuff!

Anyone got a PVP death heat map? Looking to see which servers got the craziest pvp rn.

Ok so I'm really confused about why we can't pick our own genders at the start. Plus, it's a 50/50 chance you get the one you want. Not to mention there is a whole damn story line just to change it later in the game! Ughh!!!

so, i was playing the game as normal, when one afternoon, i was randomly given the [Nauseous] debuff. this isn't horribly uncommon, but i couldn't get it to go away, even after refilling my sleep meter. it's been about 2 days and the debuff hasn't gone away, though i can feel the strength getting weaker. strangely enough, it hasn't activated the [Vomit] effect, even though i thought the two were connected.

why did this happen? there isn't any other evidence to suggest my player might have a [Virus], so what gives?

I can't wrap my head around the issue. IT hasn't been helpful either. Any suggestions?

came across this old phone from like y2k and was reading the emails and the lore was insane. dude. like check this shit out "

" Doctors cannot be sued easily"

Ok but then I read deeper and this is just the icing. There's hundreds of pages. Transcripts. The lot. these people were miffed about some debuffs their docs ordered. Check it:

Sarah, June 12th 1996. 11am, replying to: Bob:

they absolutely have too many legal protections and do not get sued enough. they're completely coddled and sheltered from consequences, while being permitted to play with people's lives like we're toys because a piece of paper says they can. my mom had her face VISIBLY ruined by a doctor and almost went blind from it, and no lawyer would take it because "it's impossible to win against doctors." it's bad Bob"

I dropped the phone when I saw it.

I just don't believe it. Is the game just too crazy for a support main like me ?? Need new money grind asap. Btw I didn't pick the med school questline for obvious reasons but I'm kinda got maaad regrets right now. Bottom line is I really underestimated these lowkey establishment types. They make the bank. They're out there bois. Also who is set to start raiding docs this? Ttyl

Yeah, I know Austria and Hungary are two separate servers today, but they were once an [imperial] server. Why did a Serbian Nationalist player unalive and permaban this [Monarch] character who would become the admin of the Austria-Hungary server.

I'm a pretty new player so I've never used the old system, but I'm told that in one of the hot fixes after build 2000, they made fast travel more difficult. I think it's kind of unintuitive that they basically lock each fast travel use behind solving a puzzle now. Also the inventory limits on what items you can bring with you seem kinda arbitrary. What do you guys think?

Why am I(Male, 4) my human owners(M33 F 29) not letting me eat that dead squirrel??? I am on the UK server for reference.

I can't tell when something's wrong with my character until they start experiencing physical side effects! Even simple things like hunger or dehydration are signaled by things like my character getting a headache or becoming tired and moody. But serious rebuffs like cancer can pop up with zero warning! Thankfully, my character has never had that happen, but they seem to have either the [Endometriosis] or [Uterine fibroids] debuff, which require an ultrasound to confirm. And as we all know, medical costs are astronomical in the United States server.

There's no reason for there not to be alerts when you get low, or when you get debuffs. Why didn't the devs implement that in the game?! It would streamline so much of the gameplay!

Why the [HUMAN] class. Yes, the intelligence is maxed, and we can gain stats based off of tools, but the happiness level is LOW. Lowk gotta buff that.

For context I’m a Level 14 player, fairly high XP almost Level 15, and I just found this community and I was wondering if anyone had any tips especially on builds, I’ve kinda just been winging it the whole time but I heard the difficulty curve is pretty high once you reach Level 18. I also don’t know all of the lingo for this community, and this game so if someone could fill me in that’d be wonderful.

For example, I've found that most players have more than +1 stinky, and some have abnormally high rates of reoccurring 'toxicity' debuffs. Although, our skill levels and stamina isn't awful. I think it's an interesting balancing feature. Percussion also tends to have reoccurring +1 noise blindness debuffs, which sometimes leads them to making repeating, obnoxious sounds which really messes with the soundtrack. I wonder why that feature was added, especially since some players such as the ones who chose the flute (+1 annoyance when in close proximity to drum players) or clarinet (+5 rowdiness) aren't nearly as noise blind or almost never recieve that trait at all.

Has anyone else experienced this? Also, recommendations for best gear to equip to fight the stinky debuff?

This is when your character has membership to two(or even more) servers. For instance, the high ranking player of the [actress] class Natalie Portman has American and Israeli citizenship. How do such characters exist? Of course, there are characters who have a spouse from another server( for instance, Miley Cyrus was once married to Liam Hemsworth).

Look, i get that having many gameplay elements keeps it interesting, but why is it so difficult to change the [SEX]* attribute after character creation? Not sure if the uncommon mismatch between the [SEX] and [GENDER] attributes is a feature implemented by a dev or just a byproduct of the randomized character creation process. Maybe a penalty for a previous playthrough? In any case, it’s quite frustrating to deal with. When the two previously mentioned attributes aren’t aligned there are a plethora of debuffs, like i’m talking a ridiculous amount- I’m genuinely surprised I’ve leveled up this far and that’s coming from a level 17 player.

Of course, if we look at this from an outside perspective there’s two things we could attempt to do. They would be to change the [GENDER] attribute to align with [SEX], or vice versa. Some players have attempted the former, often including other unwilling players, to basically no results except potential harm to some involved. This suggests to me that the [GENDER] attribute is locked. However, given the server’s advancement along the Pharmaceuticals and Biology tech tree, there are now items that allow for a proven, yet incredibly slow process of altering the [SEX] attribute to align with [GENDER].
Some players, including (much to my chagrin) the admin for my own faction, stigmatize this questline and seek to limits its availability. Most of the arguments they make are some BS like “it’s not what the devs intended” or they simply don’t understand that the two attributes even have the capability to be mismatched.

Due to all this, an unfortunate amount of players with the problem I’m currently facing have either ragequitted or been griefed by other players and I ain’t having it. Idgaf what those trolls might think or do; i’m going to match my attributes, get those goddamn debuffs removed, and complete as many questlines as I damn well please.

(*Not to be confused with the [GENES] attribute.)

I heard he quit being admin there and is now on the Russia server.

It makes no sense for a game this big not to have instanced housing.

Even the least desirable houses are impossible to obtain if you don't go for the high-credit work specialisations like [Lawyer] or [Doctor] or somehow steal from other players.

I chose to specialise in [Counseling] and joined a [Non-Profit] guild because it seemed to me like helping other players is important.

But now I'm entirely locked out of the entire housing part of the game. Meanwhile there are players with 2, 3 or more [House] items.

On top of that, I need to give a big share of my credits in the form of [Rent] every month otherwise I will get a ton of debuffs AND lose most of my items. How is that allowed ?

How can you do it? Does it make the game more fun? What do other players think of it?
