Would Mr. Eaten (Seeking Mr. Eaten's Name) of Fallen London be an Avatar of the Flesh?

Me: I’ve seen all of the terrors of the Neath, I’m prepared for anything the High Wilderness has to throw at me!

Mr. Wines: Thanks for agreeing to see me

Mr. Spices: I didn’t. You walked in and just started talking

Mr. Wines: I don’t have time for a history lesson

i think it’s very brave and sexy of me to still play pokemon games in the exact same way i did when i was 5 years old - ignoring all stat changing moves. this is an offensive move only household. if you effectively stratagise using stat changes in battle Fuck You

this isnt necessarily good news but i hope we can all agree that if you are attacked by a puma and you kill it with your bare hands it should be socially acceptable to wear the pelt wherever you damn well please

[housemeathousemeat]

Mr. Wines, getting shot in Lost in Reflections: What are you, some kind of gun cuck? Can’t kill a bat with your bare hands? Pathetic

One rhyme concerns eleven pilgrims who travelled from a cold and windy waste. It enumerates each of the reasons the pilgrims were unwelcome in their homeland.

Highlights from the FBG Reddit AMA (02/03/2017)

Here are some highlights from today’s FBG Reddit AMA. If any more questions are answered tomorrow I will add to this post!

Elections will come back for Fallen London this year too! (x)

The Mr Eaten Storyline won’t be specifically addressed in SSkies but “However, there are some practices, rites, and mysteries in Sunless Skies that followers of the Mr Eaten story will find resonant. For now, we’ll just say that the Masters weren’t the first beings to come up with the idea of throwing their enemies into wells…” (x)

Not ruling out DLCs for SSkies (x)

“The Martyr-King’s Cup? Nothing to worry over; it is just the folly of those who’ve read so many books their brains have all dried up. Lunatic dreamers who speak in silly thee’s and thou’s and oblige themselves to esoteric codes, because they think it brings them closer to some cosmic truth, some greater glory.” (x) 

The plan is to not have a logbook at all and have the flavor text for the locations appear on screen, similar to the trailers (x)

“I’ve just started writing one of our ports. I hope you lot like bees. (And if you don’t, all the better!)” (x)

“Parabola is not welcome in the Judgements’ sight. Parabola is the realm of Is-Not. The heavens are the arbiters of what Is. Yes, we will be learning more about [Parabola].” (x) 

“In Sunless Skies we’ll meet the Scorn-Flukes, who grieve for lost Axile.” (x)

“Can confirm devils in Sunless Skies. Look for a port called Carillon” (x)

[on the dragons reacting to the Judgements’ murders with military force] “You will no doubt be completely unsurprised to hear that it’s rather more complicated than that. The few snippets we’ve learned about the ‘dragons’ have all been depicted from very specific points of view. It’s not the whole story.” (x)

“(We have certain priorities when inventing new Correspondence sigils, which we do sparingly. Every one has to be sound like it can refer to two different specific things, which I won’t elaborate on because spoilers)” (x)

“We’ll be on Windows, Mac and Linux for full launch in 2018.” (x)

Consoles are being considered for the future. (x)

“You can certainly choose to support certain Judgements’ goals!” (x)

Neath inhabitants aren’t immediately killed upon exposure to the HW because there aren’t many Judgements around these days (x) 

“When players start a new game, we’d like to give them several options to customise their game to create a level and type of challenge that’s right for them. If fine motor control challenges are not really your thing (or just something you happen to be bad at), you should be able to adjust the degree of auto-aim, so that your projectiles automatically arc towards their targets.” (x)

“At present, I can neither confirm nor deny the presence of a train whistle.” (x)

More options to interact with neutral vessels other than fighting (x)

Ships and resources will be more varied and viable to obtain for early players (x)

[on the topic of if there will be another “build your kindgom” ambition] “It’s early days (Disclaimer! Disclaimer!) but one of the planned ambitions is currently called “a throne of your own” in the design documents.” (x)

“ There will be at least one significant quest involving the Correspondence in Sunless Skies.” (x) 

“I think we’ll be seeing rather more Red Science. Hey, I wonder how London got the gate at the Avid Horizon open?”  (x) 

Also not really a piece of info but I feel like sharing this because it was very sweet:
