THAT'S A FREAKIN' WHALE!!
« on: May 02, 2012, 03:53:30 am »
So I just turned in my research paper and am wearing an eyepatch (fatigue led to eyestrain... the 4 Amps didn't help either) and decided that I would finally get back to AVWW. I was in a sea zone and needed to put on the acid gills, walk along the bottom, get to the other side....

Imagine my surprise when the water in front of me started moving... my health bar went down and I couldn't run through it. Took me a couple of squints through the uncovered eye before I realized there was another eye staring back at me!

Thanks for the heart attack guys, could've warned me that the sea zones were barren wastes populated by WHALES.

I love that you were wearing an eyepatch when you fought your nemesis, the whale!

Except Sturgeon have become the new deadly fish in recent DF. Or if you're feeling suicidal, the giant freaking sponge of invincibility.

That sounds like a way more exciting way to keep people out of water than making it acidic.

It's a good thing you didn't experience the earlier ocean shallows then, which used the same enemies as the ocean. On my journey to unlock coral I had to fight something around 13 whales at once :O.
