>my shopkeeper is pregnant and has their huge pregnant belly shown at all times because uhhhhhhh
is this the most blatant case of a developers poorly disguised fetish?

When are we getting a new zone?

>>716134643
When you stop touching yourself at night.

>It is speculated she could be pregnant from a “god-like entity” through parthenogenesis.
>She has yet to give birth even after being around for 100 years. It moves but does not grow.

I'm asking this seriously; what is the preferred archetype for a merchant in a video game?
sexy?
mysterious?
weird?
random?

when I think of an iconic one, I can only think of re4's and no other, but I'm not sure

>>716135540
My preferred merchant archetype is the bro merchant who is excited to help you on your quest.

>>716135540
I like spectacle in my merchant
The Ethan RE games have the big fat merchant he's great

>>716135540
I like it when their appearance and backstory can explain the types of items they carry.

>>716134456 (OP)
>>716135271
Ok, I'm a pregfag, let me take a look at this ga-
>Early Access
Sorry OP, Even pregfags like me have some standards and no Early Access games for me. I might take a look if it ever actually comes out.

>>716134456 (OP)
Being playing for about 8 hours now and haven't died once. Found this 50BMG SMG with a 20 round mag and rechambered it into 7.62mm, with some oils on it I can one tap most enemies. Just need to get a penetration enchantment and it'll be complete.

>>716134456 (OP)
>Smoking while pregnant
I hate her.

>what is the preferred archetype for a merchant in a video game?
Non jewish

>>716135540
Obviously crooked as fuck, that at some point in the game you get to fleece hard without them realizing it.

>>716135540
>mysterious suave masked man
>grizzled old man war veteran
>cute little girl (optional: backpack at least twice her size)
>exotic not!gypsy/witch
>thirsty milf that hits on the protag

>>716136638
That's fair. There's not much preg content beyond the one merchant anyway.

>>716135540
Sleazy scumbag who cuts corners and has numerous throwaway lines implying hilarious criminal hijinks. Saul Goodman, Georgi from Papers Please, that archetype.

>all the good combinations of oils and scrolls just turn the guns into "who framed roger rabbit" cartoon guns
>if you want your guns to feel like guns they will outright suck

>>716140124
What builds have you made? I haven't experimented much beyond damage oils really, tried the chain lightning enchantment but it just shocked me half of the time and dealt barely any damage to the enemies.

>>716135540
>mysterious?
yeah
>>716140124
I barely use oils. I know there's crazy combinations but for most I thin the drawbacks are way too bad. if something increases damage and recoil I might put it on a semi and that's about it.
Had no problem beating all the content there is so far.

>>716140824
You can find some oils with less drawbacks than others. Like do you really need gold from enemies when you get most of it from selling shit or crates? Free damage. Bullet drop is also mostly ineffectual on the majority of good guns.

>>71613445
You'll call out her belly but not her giant honkers?

>>716142826
Comes with the territory.

>>716140124
My guns feel fine and I one shot nearly everything with my rifle. Get a rifle with low spread, lower it more with a suppressor or compensator, change it to .50 caliber, then stack multiple projectiles and of course stack damage with oils, Two Time Oil is good for this. My rifle does about 2000 damage per shot and it's fully automatic.

>>716136762
Sell me on this game

>>716144836
Tarkov roguelite with 2D billboarding graphics from scandinavian devs.

>>716140457
>>716143465
This is what I've made. My boringly reliable .30 caliber shotgun with a lot of durability that carried me through the whole game.
I also have a 5.56 AK that I prefer to use because I don't have to reload every half a second, but it chews through ammo very fast and merchants don't carry enough ammo so I'm constantly running low on 5.56.
Shame I can't seem to find the AR15 or the .50 SMG anywhere.

>>716144836
Nice stylised looter shooter game. Kill gobbos, find guns, cook food.

>>716145659
That AK looks interesting. I've mostly been avoiding shotguns and sticking to sniper rifles with penetration+damage, they just feel much better to use. I've got a flock in storage, been thinking about rechambering the calibre to something more plentiful than shotgun shells.

>>716145964
This is the AK
Plenty of damage and fast reload — good against multiple enemies. But the issue is that I'm always running low on 5.56.

>>716146073
I meant the blue one you were holding, but that one seems to be neat too. What's the red bandana and why aren't you wearing the armoured helmet instead?

>>716146379
Because I find move speed to be more important than armor.
And the Typhoon 80 is not that great: low capacity, low rate of fire and slow reload. I just want to find the AR-15 and rechamber it to 7.62

>>716135540
comically jewish

>>716147204
So like nasally high-pitchted voice nerds that are always complaining or just the standard hand-rubbing older man?

>>716147204
This, but he's actually on the level and treats you fairly (or at least reasonably)
>Hmhmhmmm, take your time....

>>716135540
sexy, mysterious and weird at the same time

>>716147204
>yandere jewish merchant that gives you freebies and justifies them by saying "well, if you die who will i fleece then?"

She pregnant? i just thought she was overweight but not pregnant at all.

This game has many guns but only 10 of them are actually worth using.

>>716145659
This is my main gun like I described

>>716151159
Also I was about to put this bad boy on it but I just beat the game, I'll probably wait to see what they add the next update at this point.
