I'm going to assume that you mean only the active members here. This of course means that Alfasketer, AFTRHR, KarjamP, Mono, Polaris and Raus will be omitted.

I actually meant all of the actual members here, inactive or not.
I don't see anyone on the member list by the name Polaris here? Was that another non-sockpuppet member elsewhere?

King (2.0): Truth be told, I've been in some sort of rut ever since my former library supervisor rejected me and I rejected her back. After she left, I got bored of my job and kept at it until my time there ended. I have been trying to crawl out of it, but that feels hard to do when small town boredom is in full effect. I suppose the only thing to do is slowly progress at the things I actually want in life.
SkyThunder: She's cool. Much like Alice, she has an insight on Cibryll and her girlfriends that I find interesting.

Well, you'll get out of that rut one day.
Have faith, and Bloom Beasts, and all that. :3

Also, thanks!

Polaris is a real person, but they didn't make an account here. If the question involves all real members, So I'll have mention them as well then? OK

AFTRHR: He and I have had our ups and downs but aside from that, we're on mostly good terms. I'm not sure what he does now but if his Discord avatar (which I assume he drew himself) is any indication, he seems to doing well.
Alfasketer: He and I started off on the wrong foot, though we eventually buried the hatchet. Nice guy, but he and I don't talk much.
Mono: He and I had a rough start but we've been on good terms for a while. From what I can tell, he's often busy so I rarely see him at all.
KarjamP: Believe it or not, KarjamP was a reasonable if somewhat stubborn individual. Then the whole Philosophy of Projected Thought thing happened and he's been on a downward spiral ever since. Worse still, the main problem with his music is that he only uses MIDI instruments and never bothered to upgrade to better instruments. And yet KarjamP decided he cared more about getting into arguments with people (myself included, which in hindsight was quite stupid on my part) rather than improving his craft.
Polaris: They're quite reasonable from the experiences I've had with them.
Raus: He and I used to be friends. We were drifting apart but after he got hit with an allegation about grooming, I decided I could no longer be friends with him in good conscious. Aside from that, he's deleted everything about himself so finding him would be impossible anyway.
Zxin: They made an account here but they didn't really do anything here. From what I know of them, they're not that bad actually and it turns out that what I heard about them was wrong. Their modding reviews were good to read, and if their Twitter is any indication they're also a muscian.

Aphysxia: According to Cibryll, Bloom Seymour was based off her so I want to give her a chance. She also has a cute avatar as well, though I'm not sure if she picked it out or if Cibryll did.

I picked all my avatars. I am glad that you find my avatar, at least on this forum, cute!

Now submit to the Bloom Beasts :3

What is your favourite Bloom Beast, from each creator? (Treating those marked as "multiple" on the Bloom Beast list as their own person.)

Not going to lie, I thought you were going to use this page which lists both the Bloom Beasts that are extinct and not extinct, since that page you went with only lists the non-extinct ones.

I have a few more questions:
- Do you think that each Bloom Beast species would have its own unique boss theme, or share a boss theme in general?
- If you could pick a maximum of five famous singers to write an anthem for the Bloom Beasts, who would it be?

ChronomalyMaiden · « **Reply #290 on:** 03 January 2025, 19:17:51 »

thoughts on boss themes that have variations depending on the boss's health, like in some sonic games?

- I think that certain groups of Bloom Beasts share a boss theme unique to that group.
- Kate Bush, Lily Allen, Mili, Mori Calliope, and Neil Tennant (Pet Shop Boys).

Its a great way of adding to the atmosphere to a boss fight, and clues the player in that they're nearing the end. Another variant is one where the boss theme itself is minimalist but adds more instruments once the boss is low on HP.

+ Presentation.
+ The fight doesn't wear out its welcome, probably because its supposed to be short.
- Attacks lack variety and only become more interesting once Fafnir loses HP.
- Weak spot seems annoying to target.

Ah, yeah.

Fafnir is the first Guardian in La-Mulana 2, and thus is meant to be the easiest probably.

Also, the game has an achievement for defeating all of the Guardians without using sub-weapons ("All I Need is One Arm"), and another for doing so on hard mode ("All I Need is One Finger!"). Looking at the video title, it's safe to say the player went Hard Mode. The only sub-weapons that can be used during the Guardian fights basically would be Ankh Jewels (which are used to summon the Guardians and have no other use) and shields.

Can't find out if there's a similar thing for not taking any damage, but. Some players do things just for challenges, I guess.

The same will apply to this one~

So, what're your thoughts about this second (intended order) boss?

Vrita appears to be less tedious than the previous fight because you can always target the head. The main challenge seems to be avoiding the water (I'm not sure if it kills or damages you) and most of the boss's attacks seem to focus more on destroying the platforms than actually damaging you. Kinda like the Twinkle Snow Zone boss in Sonic Advance 3 except far, far less frustrating to deal with. I suppose the boss could have a more aggressive A.I focused on attacking you, but then you'd have to move the fight to later in the game because it would such a huge difficulty spike compared to the previous boss.

A) I got several books (The Art of War, The Prince, Bhagavadgita and House of Leaves), more pyjamas, body wash and deoderant, a beanie hat and a small table.
B) 5/10 Something tastes delicious but is not overly sugary or saccharine.
C) Water

* looks up stuff *

Yeah, the water's damaging to one's health.
The item that negates water damage is obtainable by defeating Vritra, though I don't know if the fish outfit that can be obtained from the DLC area also neutralizes damage from the water…

… right.
Next one~

Huh, the person who made this video took the fifth Guardian on as the third one.

Either way you look at it, this way or that way, or another way, this is still my favourite Guardian~ :3

Y'know the drill, things you like, things you don't like--

* gets eaten by a Motorbike Blossom *

… well that was fitting.

Also I keep laughing at the very end of the video ;-;"

Alice: I like Alice and I find her life to be fascinationing. It also helps that her avatar (the one Cibryll picked out) is very pretty.

Oh my.

Indeed, Charlie may have picked out most of my avatars, but I suppose I have taken a liking to them by now.

As for my questions for the moment:

1. Discord aside, are you on any social media platforms solely for family or close friends who are not on Discord?
2. Out of the stars out there, which holds your favourite name? (Astrological stars, not celebrities.)
3. How often do you go out to meet with friends offline?
4. How is Albert doing?
5. Have you ever owned any plushies?
6. Approximately how many non-Albert cats have you seen this year, offline?
7. What are your thoughts on the Afrikaans language, from what you have seen/heard to date?
8. What New Year's resolutions have you made, if any exist?
