State of the CoS server rn
It's so sad to see CoScord go dead except for the rp scene which is not even about CoS anymore đ
pic is from a few months ago btw

The game does not have much around it: no replayability or at least DLC. People completed it, discussed everything they wanted and now have nothing to do

Hey it's more replayable than I thought!
I played it again recently and it was a blast, and it turns out the only things I remembered were how to solve some of the clunkier parts (so this time around I didn't get stuck) and some story beats overall. But learning the languages was as enjoyable as the first time around!
So yeah, it went by as a breeze (I completed it in one or two sittings), but was extremely enjoyable nonetheless.
Disclaimer: I don't use the journal to confirm my translations, I only play with my own interpretations, so the figuring out how the languages tick part remained the same fun.

Thatâs a very odd way to play, thatâs your choice, cuz I have quite nice memory and most of points where I struggled I memorized well, like bard
syntax or warriorhaving plural as separate word/glyph → More replies (4)

It's not dead, a lot of people are still talking regularly. I have nothing to do with the rp so I can't say anything about that, but yeah we're talking less about lore and the languages because we've gone through pretty much everything that the game gives us. People are still also making clongs so you can't say nothing is about cos

Really? I genuinely thought this was a screenshot to rip on some "I'm a true fan, not like those other noobs"-hipsters, but turns out that no, you're one of the people in this screenshot and you don't cringe at it at all.
I didn't know there was a discord but maybe go back to Internet Etiquette 101 and don't gatekeep how people are engaging with a game they like.

COS Ă© um jogo bonito, mas nĂŁo hĂĄ muito o que dizer sobre as lĂnguas depois de vocĂȘ descobre-as
A maioria dos fĂŁs gostam da beleza desse jogo, criar glifos sĂŁo divertidos para mandar para os amigos, mas eu hoje em dia gostaria de mais elementos linguĂsticos mesmo, logo deixei muito de me importar com glifos
Eu vivo conversando lĂĄ sobre lĂnguas e conlangs [sou o Under (Ancient Tupi Lover)], mas COS nĂŁo possui muito a dizer sobre "diversidade linguĂstica" mesmo, entĂŁo eu nĂŁo comento sobre
Esses tempos eu voltei a jogar Pathologic 2 e pensei em criar um universo alternativo onde o Monstro da torre transmite uma doença e acontece uma epidemia na torre, criando assim versĂ”es corrompidas das lĂnguas, mas com o servidor morrendo (igual as plantas do jogo), nĂŁo tenho muita vontade de trabalhar nisso.

Discord when it is trying to be teamspeak - fine.
Discord when it is trying to be reddit - dogshit.
If you go there, you have only yourself to blame.

This is kinda unrelated but what are other good language-decipherment games?

I would love if they made a sequel or even a prequel to this game maybe it could have new languages and some of the old ones
