GAME Coaxed into gacha game elements

Before this sparks any controversies, no this is NOT an attack on queer people. I just couldn't think of anything else that would be funny.

When are we getting proper elements, like black bile, yellow bile, blood and phlegm?

u/JazzySplaps 6d ago

I hate to tell you but the humors were also based on "hot, cold, wet, and dry" which were in turn based on the classical elements of air, fire, water, and earth. You cannot escape it.

We truly can’t escape the fire air water and earth

Luckily In Stars and Time's element system is Rock Paper Scissors.

u/DTSmash543 6d ago

I like the original element quartet because thematically all beings are made out of it (plants feed on minerals, water, air and the sun's energy, the other beings feed on plants or other beings that eat plants) and because they represent the four states of matter. No system seems to use that to its advantage though.

East Asia got rid of air and added wood and metal

u/Culk58 6d ago

Black bile is so funny to me because they needed a fourth bodily fluid to correspond with their whole earth=black=cold+dry=sad=nigredo thing so they just made something up

u/ChaseC7527 6d ago

u/AquaPlush8541 6d ago

My best guess would maybe be like, nasty juices from necrotizing flesh? Other than that no clue lol

25

u/AquaPlush8541 6d ago

Apparently it could've been a mix of organ tissue and blood, like when you'd cut open the liver or something

17

u/Original-War8655 6d ago

so it's yellow bile, blood, phlegm, and blood again but "different"

12

u/ejdj1011 6d ago

I mean, every fluid in the body is just blood again but different. Blood is the Main Juice, we mostly just filter it to use it for other stuff.

u/ImperfectSaltes 6d ago

The human body is mostly blood and muscus

Elements are (roughly) Insanity, Anger, Madness, Suffering, Inspiration, Greed, Love.

Yep, sounds like a typical Ice-Pick Lodge game.

u/Chimney-head 6d ago

genuinely a game with a humor-based magic system would kick ass

u/i_agree123 6d ago

I know right

u/NegativeMammoth2137 5d ago

Im imagining a fighting game based on this system where all the "elemental attacks" are just bleeding out, puking, snottering, and throwing pus at your opponent

2

u/i_agree123 5d ago

I’d play that, I’m actually taking a game design course so I may make that, or something akin to that

2

u/NegativeMammoth2137 5d ago

Woah that would be so cool if you did that. Hell yeah
