Glyphid Slammer Changes.

[Femboy Thighs]

[Posted this on a reply to another discussion, but I'm making my own thread to give the idea more visibility]

Glyphid Slammer should first of all, have a new effect, like the other joke beers. They could change it to cost beer materials or increase the Credits cost. Or make it so the effect is very minor. But it should do something, I think.

With a name like Glyphid Slammer, maybe it could make you turn into a Glyphid Grunt? Or Make you see other players as Grunts, even though they're not on their screen (or the reverse).

Second suggestion, is make it so that the Supporter DLC doesn't REPLACE the Glyphid Slammer mug with the Supporter edition, but simply add it to the menu. I like the original mugs. I want to see them sometimes. I don't see the harm in just giving us the option to choose between the regular and Supporter Slammer mugs.

Personally, I think the Slammer has a reasonable position as a no-frills high-potency beer when you just want to get - pardon - slammed. I would prefer it remained as-is, just as the Oily Oaf doesn't make you all weird and greasy.

Some kind of "paranoia" effect, though, would be interesting as its own gag beer, or possibly an extension of Blacklock.

I'm all for letting supporters pick between classic and golden, though. Sometimes, I don't want to raid the Kong family's banana hoard to get my drink on.

I just want to point out that glyphid slammer isn't one of the joke beers. It's one of the normal beers along with oily oaf and the elf tea.

If it gets a gag, it'll start costing beer mats. At that point, it isn't the same beer-- one for just getting drunk for cheap (and it IS cheap, even the description says, which would be at odds with beer mats)

Support, the glyphid mug is nice.

Gotta leave SOMETHING for the greenbeards who aren't sitting on piles of materials. Y'know?

Objection:
Make drinking glyphid slammer's after chugging down blacklock lager start a survival horror game.

This.

OP's suggestion about a paranoia-inducing gag beer (with a few voicelines and/or making dwarves look like glyphids or something) does sound interesting though.

Yeah, sorry, gotta disagree with you on this one Femboy- PLEASE DO NOT mess with my Supporter Edition Glyphid Slammers, I Love the confetti hoopla and the fancy mugs- I often surprise and dazzle Greenbeards when ordering it for them- many ask "Howdya get that Beer?" - so I also get to shill the Supporter's Edition, and all it's extras, for GSG

Changing the Glyphid Slammer's beer effect (or rather, making it have one) is only part of the suggestion. OP also suggests putting the Supporter's Edition GS on the beer menu alongside the normal GS to allow you to pick which you want, for if you just want to see the old GS again for whatever reason.
