Horror hounds are scary? Really?

[Left 4 Sharkbait]

I mean the pengulls are a tad unsettling since they arrive in sudden hordes and are immediately aggressive, but easily avoidable and somewhat goofy hounds are not 'I can't take this, gonna throw up' scary, though if it comes to it, make a client mod or options toggle

while i can understand why some might not find them scary
IM BLOODY TEREFIED OF THEM! to many teeth showing

It's very rare that they "Scare" someone. I mean it's not like a story driven horror scenario. It's just a sandbox survival with some dangerous mobs in it. There are no jump scares.

However, they can commonly be very "Disturbing" for a lot of people, due to the amount of gore implemented to them. It's not usual for DST's artstyle.

I guess that "disturbing" is better word than scary there

Well then, you have the right to give that feedback to Klei. I also support it. (And also hope they adjust it.)

Remember when Don't Starve wasn't a baby game?

Thanks for adding this stuff to the game Klei, glad babies are scared of it again.

Okay big person, do you know that games are placed in different categories and genres? Some cannot act like the other, unless they change the game from the core. DST for example is not a horror/ zombie killing game. It's a sandbox survival with cartoony art. "this stuff" simply don't fit in to this game.

Have you seen the shadow creatures? Especially the shadow knight?

You clearly don't know ♥♥♥♥ about Don't Starve, which makes sense since Klei have attempted to baby it down for young children and mass appeal.

Yes the shadow creatures also don't fit. But they are there anyways. It doesn't mean they should be there.

Why boat's don't fit into a survival game? it's the most common thing to create when escaping an island or if there is some rivers to cross etc.

Oh, you want to buy attention. Sorry store is closed atm.

I don't think the design of horror hounds nd penguls really fit the rest of the game thematically?? Like, even on the lunar islands they're a bit jarring (carrats, saladmanders. Even the sleep ghosties are a nice juxtaposition of insanity and shadow creatures.)

I feel like they just need a lil nudge, something to tie them into the island like moonstone accents or w/e. Moon glass teeth/bones, shards of the stone in the horror-hounds hide.. moonstone organs @ pengul? Like the spiders. love those things

But hey, run with whatever you want, Klei. If you have a vision go for it.
Im hella excited regardless.

Attention troll says that someone wants attention
Did you just level down or something?

@Vanilla fish, that is a good point. Maybe the lore requires mob to be the way they are right now? who knows if at the end of the story, it all makes sense. We need to wait and see.
