here are my thoughts about last night (9/10/26)'s forky playtest. i could only stay for one round unfortunately and even then it was mostly like 1hr30 outta 2 since it started at 10pm EST and i've got the sleeping habits of an 80 year old. anyway

WHAT I LIKED:

  • extremely funny time. laughed a lot while playing from both just seeing people around and struggling to communicate with my fellow greys

  • lot of good roleplay happening. not that it doesn't happen on normal funky, but it felt like people were trying even harder

  • really enjoy the "real time" aspect. people rping like it was 3 am was nice

  • at least for me, a service worker, the vision cone wasn't that bad or obtrusive. lot better when there was a tip about getting rid of the noise filter

WHAT I DIDN'T LIKE SO MUCH:

  • the map kinda stunk. super tight to where getting around was kind of confusing. the vox box/cafe kitchen had no food supplies no fridge no blender and no beakers, which is bad because->

  • cooking was seemingly a lot more ingredient-intensive now. 45 flour to 15 water to make bread means this requires a BIG beaker and lots of space. i wish the updated/larger recipes were in the guidebook so i hope that comes in real forky

  • i hope that everyone gets custom emotes for forky. this is a minor thing

overall i had a lotta fun and am looking forward to more playtests and real forky. i want to make an unngu
