Jeromy Alexander Posted July 19, 2023 Report Share Posted July 19, 2023 I think one that dares jump into a spiraling temporal storm, takes a chances of being randomly teleported anywhere on the surface of the map. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArtiKs Posted July 21, 2023 Report Share Posted July 21, 2023 In my opinion, this would be pretty annoying , since there have been many times where they spawn right on top of me while i'm simply walking around. If i had to consider adding this idea, then the player would only get teleported away randomly if they stay in the vortex for more than, lets say, 5+ seconds, sorta like the translocators but way harder. To make it more interesting, the player should get teleported underground into temporally unstable areas. Try returning to the surface and survive before the hallucinations begin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maelstrom Posted July 21, 2023 Report Share Posted July 21, 2023 If rifts are the portal drifters use to come from the rust dimension, shouldn't seraphs be transported TO the rust dimension? But people should realize that the game has very strong elements from Lovecraft. Read Lovecraft to understand more behind the eldritch aspect of the game. If interested, I'd suggest reading The Shunned House, Colour Out of Space, The Case of Charles Ward and the Dunwich Horror as examples of what is inspiring the developers. The longest of these readings is 50 or 75 pages. BTW, Lovecraft is a master story teller! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Conan's adversaries include some pretty badass eldritch horrors too, which is unsurprising considering Howard and Lovecraft were friends. Would strongly suggest Clark Ashton Smith's stories too. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maelstrom Posted July 25, 2023 Report Share Posted July 25, 2023 Will have to look into those. Thank you! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
