No new gibbons?! This is too far! Toady, say it ain't so!
« on: October 17, 2008, 02:06:27 pm »

The latest dev update is a goddamn travesty!

Quote

I've always been wanting to do without getting caught up in ... gibbons.

How ridiculouse.  Toady One has gone too far this time!  Partially implemented gibbons is an idiotic stance to take here.  Gibbons will join the rank of half-finished features like potash and cheese making!  I have no idea why he wants to go off in every direction at once instead of finishing gibbons but I have lost all faith in this project!!!

What?! This is insanity!! How can he just spit on such an important feature?! Gibbons was the main reason I continued playing, because I expected him to finish them!

this is bullshit, I don't know if I even want to play anymore.

Odd how "Experiment" in DF is often synonymous with "Raging inferno of death and dispair"

What the hell is a gibbon?

An elemental of gib.  They're usually depicted as standing about twelve feet high and explosively dismember any living creature they come into skin contact with.  I'm glad they won't be appearing any time soon, they're extremely unbalanced.  Down with gibbons!

Not to break character on all the stupidity, but gibbons are monkeys.  DF has something like 12 variations of them.

Yeah, I like all those gibbons. I can see why he might think it's a minor feature, but remember; those weird biomes: those mangrove forests, those tropical beaches, taigas, tundras, savannas; people seek them out.
