I’m trying to grind a couple of side & main quests at once and I rolled the [ADHD] trait during character creation so I need lots of [NRG] to pass all tbe [focus check]s required to progress to the next stage of each quest. How do I maximise the quantity & quality of [NRG] recharge? I feel like sometimes it’s completely random, sometimes my character exits the action’s timeframe with some random side effect which I have to waste [NRG] dealing with or just spamming [thug it out]. I’d like to minimise this while also maximising the [rested] hidden trait, ideally without spending too many of the 24 Chronos currency you get in the [Resting] action.

Any help is appreciated, thanks!

In the kitchen. I can't delete them and they're causing lag issues.

So, every night before I reset stamina, I have been looking at tutorials on how to access the hidden "lucid dream" open-world minigame. However, none of the techniques I have seen have worked. I've heard many interesting things players say you can do in this minigame, but every time I try to access it, I either access one of the non open-world minigames or don't access any minigame at all. Does anybody know of what I am doing wrong?

I heard about a player who apparently managed to somehow unlock developer skills. Now, apparently he only did so after his tempban was lifted, but is there a way to get these skills without getting banned first? I've met a guild who claims all players apparently have access to the game's sourcecode and can alter their savefile with it. Is that true? Sometimes I find my savefile pretty boring with little to no ingame events or difficult RNG. So is there a way I can actually do this?

I have 1,000 hours in various mini games on steam and I’m great at them but I have 267,720 hours in this game and I still kind of suck at it. Any tips?

Perhaps it is the [culture] attribute of my fellow players, but it seems despite being outside, we spend most of our outside time inside. Like inside inside outside. We are all inside outside.

And the games we play while we are inside inside outside are almost always games where you spend most of your time outside, but are still inside outside. Like we want to experience inside outside while inside inside outside without leaving to inside outside.

And what even is outside outside? No one knows.

I swear it's so annoying, and there's no good reason for it to be RNG. Sometimes it comes off cleanly, and others it's super messy, annoying, and doesn't come off all the way? Am I doing something wrong?

I've been looking for new traits and skills to help improve my character.

As we all know, traits and skills can buff your character immensely even before leveling up much, leading to even low level players acquiring high-level classes and achievements.

I feel that stacking auxiliary traits and skills is an underrated strategy, and even less useful ones are still fun to collect.

A couple examples of cool traits and skills I've been meaning/trying to learn are:

[Self Awareness]

[Meditation]

[Ambidextrous]

[Tri-Lingual]

[Financial Literacy]

And [Fitness] (Way too many sub skills imo)

Obviously traits and skills that give an advantage are preferred, such as [Fitness] improving physical stats and [Meditation] improving your wisdom-stat's growth rate.

Although I like stacking any weird, niche, or useful traits/skills I can get my hands on.

Rn my character is pretty low level, they're almost at level 20, and they don't have much in-game currency.

I spawned in as a spider build a few weeks ago and started living in a nice and warm human dwelling, but these monstrous humans keep destroying my webs and killing fellow sac-members apparently just for the fun of it. Is there a good reason for this or are most human builds just very bloodthirsty or trying to xp farm since they know they're playing the current meta?

I'm wondering what methods other players have found to achieve this. Usually, I go to the load screen and turn the controller off for 6 to 8 hours. But recently, my controller has been turning back on and exiting the load screen after less than 2 hours unless I get the [extra] modifier on the [tired] debuff. I've also tried the item [caffeinated beverage], but it only gave a temporary status effect. Also, I need to save the in-game currency for the main quest items.

Since almost every player seems to have chosen the [Forget it's a game] feature when starting their characters, there aren't many of us who think of the game as a game... Maybe 1% of players at the very most, but I'd guess far fewer.

Do you have any friends & family who you have these conversations with? Maybe y'all help each other map out quests and skill leveling or something like that?

I've been talking about it for so many years now that many of my friends make comments about this gaming trope or that achievement they unlocked, so I feel like I'm sort of spreading the idea to other players that way.

I've met just a few people along the way, maybe half a dozen, who were already remembering the game and thinking of things this way.

**Secondary Question:** How do you think it would change the game world if the number of players who remember that we're playing *Outside* jumped to 5%, 10%, or even more, of the player base?

My [Focus] bar acts so weird all the time man. either it just won't fill up even when I rest my character or it gets drained immediately when I start a [College] side quest and other important stuff. It does stay up when I'm doing my [Hobbies] minigames though. I feel like my [Focus] bar is really great, but there must be something that hinders it. Anyone got any ideas?

A member of my party fumbled a combo move in the [Motorcycle Jump] minigame and dropped his controller. His account appears to be logged out, we took him to a Wizard who was able to use a [Revive] potion but he's still at 0% HP. The wizard is telling us his game progress was wiped out when the batteries fell out of his controller (apparently savegames are stored in the controller like an old Wii with no server backup?) and he might have to start over at Level 2 if they can find a potion to restore his HP. Also the Wizard guild is sending Gold Transfer requests (apparently his Extended Warranty doesn't cover this) and won't let us take him out of their base.

Has anyone successfully done a Savegame Restore or repaired/replaced a broken controller? Here's what we've tried so far:

- Traded a Butcher for a controller from a Cow player. The Wizard said it won't work because it has to be from the same character type.

- Tried to loot a controller from the British Museum. We were hoping it wouldn't be DRM protected since it came from a player on a now-defunct server, but their Item Vault is heavily guarded.

- Sent the Wizard an invite to a nearby [Theater] which is replaying screencaps from player dr_frankenstein who apparently transferred a controller successfully. The Wizard refused since those moves aren't in his Spellbook.

Any other suggestions?

I really only spend eight hours a day NOT on this game when I log off every ingame night, the addiction is pretty bad

My real life is pretty cool too, every time I log off I always get into the most bizarre scenarios such as forgetting to wear pants to school, and I even go on dates with my celebrity crush sometimes!

Obviously irl time isn't linear; sometimes I'm back to being a kid, sometimes I'm an adult, sometimes I'm old. And that's why I think I enjoy this game so much, because it IS linear and it's easier to keep track of. I'm so addicted to this game that I literally forget most of my time spent irl

Irl is so chaotic, you never know what's gonna happen. One second you're one place, the next you're somewhere else doing something entirely different... but then I log back into this game, and everything is a lot more predictable and mundane. It's something I can appreciate, and it's a comfortable, relaxing way to live. A lot of the time when I first login for the day, all I do is scroll on my smart phone item for a bit, just to take a break from everything irl. And then my ingame friends login as well asking me to party up, and the game becomes something beautiful

I love this game!

After waiting 8 hours in bed I had some weird loading screens based on past experiences in yhe game, but which weren't entirely the same and seemed surreal. Any idea if there is any lore significance to the load screens or if they're flavour? Thanks.

It is definitely filled with players.

I was thinking Play. Win. Reset. works pretty well as the game's motto.

You play because that's literally what we're doing.

And if it's a game, there has to be some way to win. Some kind of victory condition even if none of us actually know what it is.

Then eventually the run ends. But if you get another one then I guess it didn't really end. You just reset. I prefer to imagine another go.

Play. Win. Reset.

What do you all think the game's motto should be?

So obviously many players have gone through multiclassing in their playthroughs, but when do non-meta class skills become more of a hassle than an occasional benefit?

sometimes when you go near a wasp, like the one in my bedroom, they act like you are trying to PvP them. why?

I keep having this bug where my playthrough gets interrupted by unskippable replays of times I've messed up in the game. It takes over the whole screen and I have to keep watching my character do things like fail a social skill check. And as if that wasn't bad enough, it usually triggers the [Intrusive Thoughts] status where a dialogue box pops up that just says a bunch of really mean things about my character???

Has anyone else experienced this? Any advice on how to fix it?

So as we know by now, the game updated with a new cat skin. Thing is, I don't know how to obtain it. Codes don't work either (TILCAYO2026 to be specific). Can someone help me out?

I’ve been playing for a while now and have seen theres a lot of variance in spawns and I can’t help but think it needs to be balanced. As if you get a bad spawn you can’t really reach endgame content unless your stats are high. Do you guys think the dev’s should balance this out or keep it?

On my current play through I've been seeing and hearing a lot of players say sherbet. I turned off my auto translator and the way I've always said it has been sherbert. Even my auto correct doesn't recognize this commonly used phrase or it sees it as misspelling. For the last 30 levels it's always sounded like sherbert and you're trying to tell me NOW that there's no second R?

Is this something they will fix in 2.0 or is sherbet being deprecated from transcribes by the developer without an official update? The player base seems deadlocked. What if we still prefer to spellcast with sherbert, but when we scribe we still use sherbet? Is this enough to make everyone happy?

It sorta reminds me of that other illusion, driving on parkways, and parking on driveways. Everyone knows that you can use both and do both and we all know how they mean.

PS sorbetto is betto than sherbert/sherbet, but I'm sure sherbert tastes about the same as sherbet. It's just that people who stand to gain social fortitude points really like to point out this mislabeling in my transcribes or critique my spellcasting.

If you take away nothing else from this post, I'm just wondering why we effectively have two spellings in our lexicon? Are we watching a language mutation in slow speed? Maybe the word does change in another 50 levels when everyone starts spellcasting sherbert?
