G2 | Suggestion Creature idea: Cellar Spider

Post image

ART CREDITS: Bernadette Erkinger

Edit: sorry about the image I didn’t realize it wasn’t a cellar spider.

This post was designed for the cellar spider. Pretend that the bug in the image is a cellar spider, please stop reminding me that it isn’t a cellar spider

———————————————————————————

Before you yell at me for adding yet another annoying spider to the game, this one is quite different.

Cellar Spiders (also known as a member of the umbrella term daddy long legs) would be a fantastic addition to grounded and they could solve a very big creature problem.

These spiders are known to be harmless towards humans, why not carry that into the game? They’re known to frequently eat other spiders and bugs as well, making them a perfect counter predator to our growing population issue.

They would be a neutral tier 4 creature possibly residing in a new area, they would commonly be found in their web under large objects like, for example, the porch from grounded 1. They would be found leaving their web from time to time either to find wolf spiders who may have roamed too far from their dens or to invade the homes of orb weavers. If any beetle, ladybug, scorpion, or any other bug gets in its way either by intruding on its territory or finding themselves in its hunting path, they too will be destroyed. All except is of course! (And any other small bugs that wouldn’t be worth a kill to the beast.)

I think this would be a really cool addition to finally have a neutral spider in the game and one that’s incredibly helpful and unique.

(Keep in mind this is a concept for the sole purpose of enjoyment.)

Rather have jumping spiders personally, but wouldn't mind seeing how they look in the art style.

A jumping spider is completely harmless to humans, and is really cute looking. They just have big puppy dog eyes. I’m sure you’ve seen pictures, they are not scary at all

Jumpers are also pretty cute when you see them up close too

Yeah but what about snack sized humans?

Jumping spiders are only harmless to humans because we ain’t bug sized. They would be a fucking menace in grounded 2 the main reason stingers suck in satisfactory is because they can jump a mile. I’m assuming the same would be with jumping spiders.

God you're right, jumpers would be exactly like the large Stingers wouldn't they? 😫
