Arachnophobia mode
Why can't the Arachnophobia Mode work for (Lala Barina) and (Nerscylla)? Will the module be modified or added mods in the future to make arachnophobes enjoy the game more comfortably?

It's generally my intention to attempt being open minded.......but for instance, I'm scared to death of heights buuuuuuut not in video games in the slightest. Help me understand

I hope they fix this.. if they are going to include phobia modes in the options they should work properly! This is a game breaker for many people and if it wasn’t then why do they even put the phobia option in the settings at all?

It’s yet another example of a half assed unfinished component they didn’t have time to complete before the game was rushed out.

What is the logic behind including a phobia setting which removes the small ones but still allows giant ones?? Who the hell is going to only have a problem with the small ones but be fine with giant ones??????
Also Arachnophilia mode, please. I love spiders :lunar2019piginablanket: And agoraphilia too - I love vast open spaces.

I was wondering how the Lala Barina looked in arachnophobia mode, (maybe even have another quest entirely) to see it was unchanged.
I am not an arachnophobe, but I really don't see the point of having an arachnophobia accomodation if it's half-done ? They should not have implemented it in that case.

It’s a lot harder to add a fair arachnophobia setting that affects the large monsters than one that does the small. So perhaps it was to add something at least.

Perhaps they think the large ones look so drastically un spider (I mean look at the size) that they wouldn’t affect people who were arachnophobes.

Who knows.

I don’t think it was unfinished though.

A phobia doesn't work like that, i is literally an irrational fear that you can not under any circumstances get under control. This comment shows that you have no idea what you are talking about. Shame on you.

Exposure therapy is a thing.

I'd say the same if the mode didn't actually exist.

I love this game but I am really afraid of spiders. I believe there are many friends who are the same. It is not shameful to know your weaknesses. What is shameful is not having a tolerant heart.

I am for making it more consistant, but you might need therapy if your trying to excuse phobias that are clearly... In the nicest way possible... Rediculous.

The complete lack of basic human empathy from half the people here is actually really disturbing.

Arachnophobia mode is a toggle. Why the hell do you care if others have it on? It literally doesn't affect you in any way, shape or form.

Bro, there's nothing basic about arachnophobia or the trend of catering to it in videogames. If someone has arachnophobia, I wouldn't throw a spider at them, but I'm definitely going to roll my eyes if they can't look at obviously fake CGI spider-like things.
Thanks people, I laughed so much. Guys need their phobias covered in video games now. God I swear this is soooo western kids 2025. They even need virtual safe spaces now. Can't wait for a vertigo safe mode for Mirror's Edge.

I'm fragile as ♥♥♥♥. I would not survive two days in the wild. I too suffer arachnophobia, I'm a big adult man, yet I'm begging my wife for help as a ridicule little princess each time one is coming near me. I should grow a pair, for real. Even my dog became afraid of spiders because of me (she did mimic me). I'm beyond pathetic when it comes to spiders. I deserve nothing more than rotten fruits launched at my face for my cowardice every time one of these arachnid monstrosities come near me. Yet NEVER in my life I even dare, even for the sake of a joke, to have my fear of spiders covered by a video game about giant monsters, or about any kind of video game to be honest. Kid, they're virtual. They're not there. They are POLYGONS. In your VIDEO GAME. Living inside your computer screen. These childs would have never survived playing a freaking Zelda game because of a virtual spider, god. This is it, we've reached the limits.

This is not covering your phobia anymore, this is just plain begging for your wildest whims be fulfilled, because some of you obviously grow up for too long without hearing the syllable "no".

Command your virtual character to take his sharper virtual sword and go ruin this big virtual spider's ass. Double time.
