are we having any bloody reelase at all? (and I don't mean "bloody" in the cursing meaning, considering the direction of DF's storywritting xD)



Jorath -> RE: =DF= Design Notes February 9, 2016 - Jaania's Thorns (2/12/2016 21:15:24)

Not until tomorrow at best, it seems. Office plague happens to be surrounding Geo.



ergotth -> RE: =DF= Design Notes February 9, 2016 - Jaania's Thorns (2/12/2016 21:23:37)

I think DF can just send their release time officialy for Saturday, considering how detailed they are becoming, we all agree that its no good to rush, and quite unnecessary to apologize for the delay when it happens so much.



Dark Lord Urmi -> RE: =DF= Design Notes February 9, 2016 - Jaania's Thorns (2/12/2016 21:28:49)

i usually assume its friday-monday when it comes to releases unless otherwise stated of course, i agree its never good to rush.



ergotth -> RE: =DF= Design Notes February 9, 2016 - Jaania's Thorns (2/12/2016 21:56:05)

besides, whenever they apologize, our response is always overly forgiving since we are very sympathetic with the team :)



Imaru -> RE: =DF= Design Notes February 9, 2016 - Jaania's Thorns (2/12/2016 22:39:15)

I just really want to spread Doom to the Rose... I mean sure, some of them are ok people... but the majority seem too eager to commit genocide, murder, slavery, etc.

Either they deffect...
Or Doom.



Brasca123 -> RE: =DF= Design Notes February 9, 2016 - Jaania's Thorns (2/13/2016 10:04:38)

if the release day became saturday, sunday releases might become a thing, so i'd rather keep them at friday and wait a bit more in case it's necessary



David the Wanderer -> RE: =DF= Design Notes February 9, 2016 - Jaania's Thorns (2/13/2016 10:59:29)

Whatever day of the week the game updates on, the staff always has seven days to work between releases, so moving the official release day won't make delays less likely to happen. Basic math, people. :P



Brasca123 -> RE: =DF= Design Notes February 9, 2016 - Jaania's Thorns (2/13/2016 18:44:15)

just saying that, if they aim to complete it on saturday and something unexpected happens, it might be delayed to sunday... which is what is happening currently that makes some saturday releases instead of friday releases xD



Warmonger DragonJax -> RE: =DF= Design Notes February 9, 2016 - Jaania's Thorns (2/13/2016 23:57:28)

Wait why is is one of the twins named Ahimsa ? It means Non-Violence in Sanskrit which makes me wonder if there is deeper meaning for the name selection.



ShadowMoon -> RE: =DF= Design Notes February 9, 2016 - Jaania's Thorns (2/14/2016 2:25:01)

@above the rose seems to have a few names that are opposite of what's named in the same manor as "fluffy the dracolich".
for example a rose is supposed to be a symbol of purity yet the entire organization is tainted right up to jaania herself. jaania's name more then likely comes from jana which means "gift from god" which jaania obviously is not.
though akanthus's name seems to be here or there at this point. as its a plant that symbolizes either long life, immortality, enduring life or coming back from the dead.
though its thorns are about the same as a roses as far as symbolism go's as they represent pain, sin and punishment

i do wonder....what would the rose do after they angered the "im invincible lololo" safiria...she existed a lot longer than anyone else. makes buildings go poof and im still quite sure the shapeless would have to deal with the rose at some point as they are trying to kill their entire civilization.


We were too subtle making a point about Saf's power.

heh all because jaania can't control her own people...a horrible arrogant child. and the "good" rose we see are on the defense not the offence protecting not regulating.


I mean... you haven't actually talked with Jaania directly yet (the one conversation was not with you. it was relayed to you and there were some hints, both in how that person was reacting immediately before telling you and in the animation of the flashback, as to the accuracy of that memory). You're upset that good members of the Rose are protecting people, though?

Akanthus, the soldiers hunting Sulen'Eska (a village that, despite having a static location on the map, actually moves since it's a guerrilla camp), and Espina Rosa are the extreme side of the Rose. If you have a group of elvish mercenaries attacking your forces while hiding out in the depths of swamp... you're probably gonna send in your hard core special ops guys to take them out, which is what Akanthus did. Most people in Lore, and probably a lot of the grunt-level Rose members, don't even realize what's going on in the swamp, other than occasional "attacks" by the Vind. With most beings, if you're happy and protected inside your bubble then you live your life or, conversely, whatever issues are happening on your doorstep are much more important than stuff that's happening someplace you'll never visit.

@geo: On the topic of the names having words from other languages, Tipu would translate to "chick" (As in, a baby chicken) from Finnish.
I somehow doubt that's what we're going for though.



geopetal -> RE: =DF= Design Notes February 9, 2016 - Jaania's Thorns (2/15/2016 13:00:43)

That wasn't what I was going for!



Wolfofdoom3 -> RE: =DF= Design Notes February 9, 2016 - Jaania's Thorns (2/15/2016 13:04:54)

Geo but how strong are Rose's dragons and dragonlords?



Brasca123 -> RE: =DF= Design Notes February 9, 2016 - Jaania's Thorns (2/15/2016 13:05:02)

i always find it interesting how people actually find translations of words from another language, i just read as names supposing they don't mean anything at all xP



Wolfofdoom3 -> RE: =DF= Design Notes February 9, 2016 - Jaania's Thorns (2/15/2016 13:07:46)

Same here Brasca.There is hidden stuff everywhere.

Dragon strength and Tier 3.



Baron Dante -> RE: =DF= Design Notes February 9, 2016 - Jaania's Thorns (2/15/2016 13:12:34)

@Brasca: Well, names and such can have hidden meanings, and in the days of internet, it's not hard to do a quick search from stuff.
And then there's people that see the things because of their own language. (And feels weird every time that happens since it's weird)



Dark Lord Urmi -> RE: =DF= Design Notes February 9, 2016 - Jaania's Thorns (2/15/2016 13:15:25)

as long as she does not blow up buildings saf would rampage heh good. it would be nice to see the "good" rose see how far their bad goes perhaps a civil war to make them seem less irredeemably evil, also how are you feeling geo a lot of people (myself included) have been getting sick this month flu and all.



Wolfofdoom3 -> RE: =DF= Design Notes February 9, 2016 - Jaania's Thorns (2/15/2016 13:23:12)

@Geo pffttt......our dragon is stronger...pfttt.



geopetal -> RE: =DF= Design Notes February 9, 2016 - Jaania's Thorns (2/15/2016 13:25:52)

the tiny baby alien that's been trying to burst out of my skull all weekend is tired today at least but my lungs are still full of alien goo ><



The Jop -> RE: =DF= Design Notes February 9, 2016 - Jaania's Thorns (2/15/2016 13:29:53)

That's unfortunate, hopefully you'll feel better soon. Look on the bright side, soon you'll be a proud mother.



Dark Lord Urmi -> RE: =DF= Design Notes February 9, 2016 - Jaania's Thorns (2/15/2016 13:32:28)

sweet and sour soup, pepperoncini juice, and a bubbly drink thats what ive been snacking on tradition for me when i get sick. take it easy until you feel better especially since it sounds like you had a migraine.



Wolfofdoom3 -> RE: =DF= Design Notes February 9, 2016 - Jaania's Thorns (2/15/2016 13:42:46)

I knew it! YOU WERE AN ALIEN ALL ALONG!Now go to sleep.(Jeff the killer face)
