How much would I have to pay to commission a Shanty x Anon romance story?
>>42463136SNIFF
>>42463036I'd do it for free if I had the time.
How does your favorite ungulate feel about the Kuchi Kuchi?Will they bite?
>>42463483I don't understand
Such an awful community
>>42464300Sounds like someone got beaten up by a funny goat
ALL (literally everyone) of you think it is just because Modus being greedy and no sign of decline has always been there even before they sold themselves to Modus, it's like they never delayed their games before. And acting as if there was no dominating consensus that pandering the competitive side of the playerbase is a good decision to make therefore the playerbase has no fault. Of course the devs did nothing wrong! /tfhg/ is literally one person and there has been no other opinion ever expressed on /tfhg/. Another disgusting thing is that people on /tfhg/ and the official discord altogether cheered and welcomed when they got a new publisher back then. Now they changed their stance to hate the new publisher. What an absolute mess of opinion-changing fucktards they are.
>>42464610Shanty would get mad at you for calling her funny
It would not be much different if they got another punlisher. It would be same if it wasn't Modus. The issues always have been there. Not just the publisher, you fuckers. And the overwhelming consensus pushed the decision making process to put every effort into the competitive scenes over storymode.And zero people will remember the development scene always has been janky.
>>42463868Kutchis, coochies, scratches, scritches, etc. Which would like it/bite?

>>42464926my drawing skills are even lower than of a toddler
>>42464930the fuck can you fucking do outside of playing the game?

Are the servers down or something?
>>42466441They've been down for a bit but not custom ones?

>>42470278too bad
dead game
>muh modus bad!!1!we all know modus sucks, but how in the world did they not know it coming? And why did they choose modus? Also have the devs been even capable to promise the storymode in the first place? Didn't the playerbase give feedback to the devs to sacrifice the storymode and put development resources and focus on the level 3 update, ports, new characters and the battle pass?
You guys also NEED to know that it would not be much different if they choose just another publisher. YOU suck.
God I hope one day somehow Hasbro ends up owning TFH. It would be so fucking funny and yet they'd probably treat it better than any of its other publishers.
Paprika kill this guy
the devs and the playerbase also has fault. You guys just deny it and blame all on modus.
I want an ANSWER
>>42470801You can't handle the truth
bump your fucking thread you sick fucking fuckers fuck
alright this game is killed solely by the greedy modus and everything was going so well with the devs before, and the devs and the playerbase did nothing wrong, and the players were so creative and don't solely play the games only, they are so creative thay they produce music and draw art all the time, even run a con and do cosplay, and above shipper-level readers and despise shipping-tier materials such as cashleander, and cam and oreo were the best mod ever, the communication between the devs and playerbase was so good, there were no aggressive bans. you won.
this is why you guys can't stop getting "muh betrayed" all the time.
the modding scene was great too, they managed to made a second chapter by themselves! They weren't useless!
all these posts are made by 1 person btwmental illness
I sincerely hate you guys
>>42471794isn't it obvious? because only one person in the entire community worldwide has a different opinion
>>42471794Threesome with Fluttershy and Pom

You guys are somehow still more active than fraymakers.https://steamcharts.com/app/1420350https://steamcharts.com/app/574980Aren't both these games kind of popular? How come no one, literally no one (less than 20 players a day) play these games????
>>42477211why not
>>42477302The game was popular to talk about as a "little guy resists big bad corporation and makes their own game with blackjack and hookers" but no one was actually willing to play it long-term. Popular to think about, yes. Popular to play, no.

>>42496827will we have to dig up an old version of the game or are character restrictions fine
>>42497099Character restrictions, I assume, otherwise it would be stated. That said getting old versions is easy and can be done through the Steam client directly, no need for piracy or modding of any kind. Here are the steps:>press Win+R>type "steam://open/console">in the console, type "download_depot [game ID] [depot ID] [manifest ID]The game ID is 574980The depot is the branch of the game that gets updated, in this case there are two: 574981 is the game data and 574982 is the .exe fileThe manifest is whatever patch you want to download, which you can find on SteamDB. You would need to find the manifests for both of the above depots listedSo, if you wanted to download the final patch before 2.0, which is 1.4.4, you would type these two commands:>download_depot 574980 574982 4227772097985812053>download_depot 574980 574981 2241476861881346268 And if you wanted the final version before 3.0's shitty balance update, 2.3.1, you would enter these commands:>download_depot 574980 574982 8159981240186803274>download_depot 574980 574981 8747300530227638014The only thing I can't help with is finding the server kit for those old versions of the game. I have the app number for the server files as well as the manifest numbers I would want, but the method to download it use SteamCMD rather than the Steam console. Alternatively if someone has those versions archived and could reupload them that would work.
2022: new characters good2025: oh no no no go back to sixfucking pathetic
>>42497344Shanty was fine, it was the dads that weren't wantedwe wanted new and interesting unguladies, not a grappler's power fantasy and deergeta.

Hey guys I don't play your game just stopping in to see how you all are doin'.How ya doin?
>>42506742keeping the ball rolling, but not much else. Tourney in a couple days though.
>>42506742I love Velvet. That is all.
>>42506742We're in interesting times for the first time in a year and a half. The company Mane6 sold the IP to has been going bankrupt for a while and last month it was announced that said company has sold the IP. We don't yet know who it's been sold to or what their plans are, but we'll find out in early September. There's been an uptick in tournaments since the announcement including QT Tourney coming back for at least a one-off, so things have picked up. We'll see if things get better or worse with the new owners than when the game was dead in the water
*bleats at you*
>>42507161
>>42506906>sold to ANOTHER random companyWe've been asking if things could possibly get any worse and I think we're about to find out.
>>42507653What could be worse than most of the dev team being fired, the game being cancelled, and the story script being locked away?
>>42507453IWTCIHA (no homo)
ungulads
>>42508229We persevere
>>42507673The worst parts of the dev team who couldn't hold a job in a real business due to their issues all come back but don't hire the good members of the dev team who were able to quickly find better jobs with their skills
>>42507673Shut down the servers, pull from storefronts, and write off the IP as a tax break due to its cursed and unprofitable nature ensuring that nobody can ever even attempt to revive it.
>>42508634>buying something to write it off as a tax breakYou don't get a 100% refund from the money you spent on something when you write it off, anon, only the taxes you would have paid on it. You would lose a ton of money buying something solely to do that
>>42508715I'm assuming whoever bought TFH had it thrown in with whatever actually valuable properties they bought from Maxim.
>>42508750>valuable propertiesCan you name a single MaxEnt IP besides TFH, Super Animal Royale or Diesel Legacy? And DL bombed, though the devs have said they have news to share and that the game does have a future so someone must have had at least a token interest in it if it wasn't sold directly to the devs. TFH is bigger than DL so it's likely someone has some kind of plan, even if a very shortsighted one
>>42508804I don't have my hopes up. The plan for TFH might be as simple as "do nothing and collect passive income from bronies who haven't bought the game or DLC yet."
>>42508844That's a pretty bad plan, they've given the game away twice now and it goes on sale for like $5 with all the DLC. Unless they bought it dirt cheap, like sub-$10k, they wouldn't get any return on that investment. You would have to have at least small updates and encourage tournaments etc.
im ready to get my ass whopped in 2 days
seems kind of unfair people who play shanty will have to use a secondary while everyone else can still use their main
>>42509175>people who play shantyyeah that 1 single player will be sad
>>42509175And what about the poor Baihe mains?
>>42509175That's true for Texas mains tooI don't have a problem with Shanty and if I were to run a regular "no DLC" tournament I would let Shanty through while banning the other four, but a "QT Origins" bracket banning Shanty makes sense, there were three years of Quality Tournament Tournaments before she arrived
>>42509184i only didn't say it for the other DLCs because someone would just reply "boo hoo nigga" because this general hates them
>>42509175what if we just made everyone else play secondaries too (still within the OG 6)
>>42509190I was going to "boohoo nigga" so your predictions are accurate>>42509182boohoo nigga
>>42509194you mean like some sort of... shitshow?
>>42509190The hate isn't unwarranted, none of them have the gameplay philosophy of the first seven characters. There really aren't any super fucked up, unwinnable matchups among the 2.0 cast, worst is like Ole:Pom and Pom:Pap, while the dads and Baihe all have at least one extremely skewed matchup where the opponent has no tools to deal with them (Shanty against the dads, Arizona and Paprika against Baihe etc.). The only reason launch Stronghoof didn't DESTROY the competitive scene was a combination of the scene being mostly dead even by that point (so little incentive to tierwhore) and everyone in the community being a character specialist with years of experience in their main that they don't want to give up. If Stronghoof got developed at all by top players in 2023 the character would have had to be banned.
>>42496827I will show you newfags the horrors of old skool pap main shinanigans
I hate dragon players like you wouldn't fucking believe
>>42509408>the dads and Baihe all have at least one extremely skewed matchup where the opponent has no tools to deal with themcomparing Baihe to the other DLC is an insanely false equivalence, Baihe shits on EVERYONE, Shanty only sucks against dads for the same reason she kinda sucks against everyone else.this post also somehow doesn't mention Velvet a single time, who not only outright beats both dads matchup wise, but is also considered by many credible players to be arguably the best character in the game post-5.1/6.0/whichever the fuck gave her chip steroids.i'll grant you Stronghoof was absolutely ridiculous at launch, but we're talking about 2025, not 2023.he's still very strong though, especially after there was a sort of labbing renaissance for him over the last 6 months or so (I think he's better than Texas actually)
>>42509408what are the principles of this gameplay philosophy of which you speak
>>42509578how can you hate someone that doesn't exist
>>42506906>>42506870>>42506749Maybe this is merely the beginning. I don't have high hopes, as you seem even more niche than YOMI. But perhaps. Perhaps.
rape
>>42510250pom only
>>42509646I'm a Velvet player and even I think her chip damage buff is something so insane only a tranny could have thought it up.
>>42509646I was going to pick up stronghoof as an alternative to velvet sometimes. fuck
>>42510656he's better than velvet at fighting tianhuo and shanty, so it could still be worth it if those give you trouble or maybe you'll just find that you do better with a brawler than a zoner, who knows? its always worth experimentingwhen people say a character is better than another in this game it's still really like 90% player skill and individual play style, the character differences only matter for specific matchups, and having a good matchup doesn't automatically make you wintl;dr trying new things is fun, so don't let metafaggotry get in the way of it
>>42509408Nidra is in line with vanilla design philosophy, and is a victim of very skewed matchups as well. Her damage is perhaps a bit too high, but she has distinct weaknesses and counterplay. If not for her bugs and her absurd damage, she'd fit right in, and both of those should have been very easy to correct.
>>42511643having a visually unreactable safe on block overhead is not in line with the design philosophy of any other character up to that point, but sure continue to overlook some "rules" (headcanons you made up about how the game is supposed to be) being broken and autistically focus on others to justify your personal taste in playstyles.
>>42511683Which overhead is that? And for how many years have people bitched about Arizona's shorthop overheads being unreactable? Or maybe Pom's unseeable 50/50s? Impossible-to-react mixups have always been in the game. Her -3 overhead is nothing compared to the shit that Texas and Stronghoof bring to the game in their neutral and their pressure. Nidra still plays neutral, she has universal counterplay in her pressure. Pom and Oleander are both more degenerate than she is, and they are vanilla.
>>42511746>Which overhead is that?236A, but also the j.C instant overhead if you want to count that tooArizona's shorthop overheads being unreactable?they're not, shj.C hits crouchers on f24, they're just bad. plus jumping overheads can't be cancelled into at any moment like standing overheads so there's a little difference in risk too.>Or maybe Pom's unseeable 50/50s?more like 25/25/25/25s, and they're more fucked up than any mix the dads are capable of, other than that stupid stronghoof "ex command grab" thing that they patched in the beta we're still waiting for an official release of>Pom and Oleander are both more degenerate than she is, and they are vanilla.pom and oleander are both contenders for most degen character period (minus baihe), which only reinforces my point that the "vanilla good, DLC bad" argument is stupid.if any DLC character had Fred on block we would never heard the end of it.
>>42511805The j.C instant overhead is unsafe on block.Baihe is obviously just unfinished-broken-tier, so she's not relevant to the discussion. But Stronghoof and Texas are broken in different ways. Stronghoof is broken in the same way Oleander-Fred and Pom are broken, and quite frankly both of those characters are retarded. Texas breaks the game in his own way unique from any other character, what with the resourceless armor, restands, and so on.Stronghoof is aggravating because he's yet another character who engages in riskless puppet pressure bullshit, and the less of that we have in the game the better. There's less of a case for banning him than Baihe or Texas, because that sort of degeneracy already exists in Pom and Oleander. But the less of it we have, the better. But there is no good argument for keeping Texas or Baihe.Basically... No sane person would include Baihe. Nidra is on-par with most of the vanilla cast. Shanty might as well be base cast. Stronghoof is analogous to Ole and Pom in bullshit-level, and the less of that the better. Texas is the only real "rulebreaker", and nobody likes him except Texas mains. A blanket ban on all DLC makes it less complicated, but in reality only two or three of them are actually that much of a problem.
>>42511314What a tease
>>42511855Also,>"only two or three of them"when there are only 5 DLC characters.How they managed to fuck up half the DLC, I have no idea
>>42511855oh btw i have no problem with the vanilla-only tournament existing, it's a fun little gimmick, i just hate bad anti-DLC arguments.i really disagree on Texas being broken though.i think his design is stupid in some ways (why does his magic not matter at all?) but counterplay to him has gotten a lot better since release. he's still obnoxious as fuck in low/mid level gameplay though so i understand why most of the playerbase feels the way they do about him.
>>42511887I disagree on Texas being fine. He's incredibly antithetical to the game. Realistically it'd only take a few changes to make him acceptable, but as long as he exists in his current state, he's an obnoxious stain on the cast and one of the main reasons a lot of players refuse to come back.
>>42511896realistically most of those people just got burnt out on the game in general.i don't think they'd come back if texas suddenly stopped existing tomorrowi still would like it if he was tweaked though, make texas smash 5 frames and fix the run throw hurtbox at the very least
>>42511938Texas Smash 5 frames is definitely the big one. Rebalancing Texas Run is the other big one. It makes little sense for the combo-starter followup to retain armor and be safe on block. I also wonder if it would be better off with only one hit of armor or if that would make it unusable. It's hard to imagine it being that bad of a nerf, though.I also really, really, really want restand gone, at least as a reset point. I can imagine it working like a stagger, where you can still use it for combos after JD is full, but it doesn't lead to a reset anymore. Maybe it'd be too much if his neutral were nerfed. Maybe he'd "need" that offensive snowball potential, and his movement speed would make techrolls difficult to chase.And of course, maybe his magic needs to actually matter. Maybe bells should be more unsafe on block, unless magic is spent to improve their framedata. Maybe bell followups should cost two magic. There's a lot of potential there.It's definitely possible to imagine a Texas that is well-designed. Current Texas is a blight on the game and frankly the main reason I don't boot up as often as I used to. It'd be less of an issue if all of the modern "top" players weren't Dad mains.
>>42512083i think armor has to work the way it does for it to be any good, not having a forward dash is just such a huge penalty that it has to be kind of overly strong to make up for it. only 1 hit of armor would just be too easy to mash through mindlessly to be effective, unless you also made run C startup way faster, which would cause problems with other interactions.idk if adding magic cost to followups would change all that much, since his optimal combos already have 2-3 bullseyes in them. he basically gains that much magic at any given time just be doing what he does normally. the rope part of the hitbox should definitely be made worse though, he gets away with doing cowbells way closer than he should be doing them as a ranged control tool. idk how to feel about restand. he needs it too much against characters that just win the game if they get away from him (e.g. velvet) but it's too good otherwise. i'd want to see a playtest of him without it to see.as for the other thing, off the top of my head i can really only think of like 2-3 high level texas or stronghoof players respectively, maybe you just have really bad luck with who's online when you play
>>42512239Or maybe the game is DEAD and those are the only high level players left.As for the first point about armor... He has the B followup. That's the followup meant to dissuade mashing. It's fast enough to frametrap. Maybe it should be the one that's -3. That's kind of a staple in a lot of "run stance" characters. The safe mid that frametraps, but doesn't lead to combos in most situations.Even if none of his run followups led to anything crazy on hit/block, players would still be incentivized to mash because runstop TS is such a threat at all times. You can't NOT do something against run. The problem is how few meaningful options there are. There is a theoretically "balanced" RPS in there somewhere, but as it stands now, it feels far too risky as the defender for how little Texas has to risk as the attacker.
>>42512308>Or maybe the game is DEAD and those are the only high level players left.you would think it'd be the other way around, all the high-levels leaving and only terrible people left who didn't get the memo the game's over
>>42511862>don't play any of the DLC characters>paid for the pass just to get my ass kicked by themIt's not the biggest waste of money in my life but it is one of the most regrettable ones.
>>42512839high level players have the most personal investment into the game already, so it makes sense they'd get trapped by sunk cost fallacya shitter can just drop the game with no consequence since they were never that into it anyway
>>42512895But that's not what happened. All of the "old greats" quit the game, and the current "top players" are a very different crowd. It's pretty much impossible to compare them now, because they're playing entirely different games (Dad Simulator + Velveeta Mac and Cheese) with entirely different player pools.The game pissed off so many hardcore top players that they left despite sunk cost fallacy, or just got banned and forced to leave.
>>42512917idk what era you're from but most of the best players right now are still people who have been playing for a long time, there's only a couple 3.0 babies with actual results
>>42512939Ancient gamer. (Insert Joker meme about different gamer ages, but it's eras of TFH)
>>42512308in practice the gap between mashed chain normals isn't usually small enough to get a run B inbetween without getting hit, especially considering Texas also has to react to getting hit to use it for that purpose (run B coming out instantly upon his armor getting hit was a bug that has been removed). it really only works as a counter if they're only hitting him with slow heavy normals. after thinking about it for a while though i think i actually agree with you that it's weird that run C can be converted into a full combo while run B can't, considering the former is much lower risk.

Do/did you have any OCs?
>>42514865My OC is anon
>>42514763just means you've got plenty of time to practice>>42514865not for TFH, no.
>>42513940play with your keyboard
>>42512083Texas Smash needs to be 6 frames, not 5, solely because it has full invuln on its active frame. Texas, in a +0 situation (which are admittedly rare) would beat any 5f jab in the game when that's otherwise not how strike v. throw works in this game. 6f preserves that dynamic. The alternative is removing the invuln and fixing whatever edge cases cause it to be necessary, but that's much more work.As for Texas's magic, my proposal is to make it so Texas doesn't gain a stock from his bell tippers until AFTER the cancel window for the followup ends. Texas either uses the bell without a followup and gains a stock, or uses the followup and loses a stock. It's far from perfect because Texas 5D is a great combo tool on its own (and you can't just make it worse without completely fucking up his combo structure and requiring many other changes to his moves to compensate for this loss) but it would make Texas at 0 magic much less threatening at long range, since he needs 5DD to convert his fullscreen stomp into a combo (I would also change his 2C to knock the opponent away when in OTG state so he can't just substitute that at long range).
>>425157786 frame texas smash would probably warrant making his 2A 5 frames instead of 6 to avoid being the only character with no 5 frame abare. but that's still way better than just being 1 frame better than everyone else for no reasonthe cowbell magic might be easier to change by just making followups cost 2 magic, which accomplishes the same thing without having to change how magic gain works
>>42514865i dont need OCs
>>42514865One of the crowdfunding rewards was a custom lobby sprite but obviously that didn't happen
when is the tourney again?
>>42517055check-in is between 2~4pm EST, so I imagine it's around 4.
Im back! Heres a Pomf
>>42517230well-pomfed
Haven't played in a year and a half, what the fuck is going on here? Where are all the servers?
>>42517393game got bought out again and since then the official servers shut down (Since I'm guessing they were hosted by the previous owners)
>>42517430Yeah I heard about that but I thought the new company put them back up after a day or twoOr are these three the new company's servers? I forget how the colorcoding of official vs non-official servers worked
>>42517510I honestly know jack shit because most of the fucking information is on their discord which I don't use
I hope Minty will be there.
>>42517055challonge says 4 eastern so realistically it will start at 4:45
>>42517761not if everyone checks in and is there on timethen we'll only have to waste twenty minutes trying to fit everyone into a server

>>42518524He did say he didn't touch the game for 6 months
well, drowned in losers again, but I did okay considering the lineup I think. Not a bad time.
i'd like to issue a formal apology for every time i've downplayed tianhuo, hooooooooly shit it's so much worse when they play evasively

Good games gamers.
>>42518966lot of fun cow games today
Well that went better then expected. 23 players and 34 viewers (and 1-2 on youtube)? The hell is this? Not what we expected at all with such a random and short notice decision. AND IT WASNT EVEN MINE! Despite prevailing wisdom I was just along for the ride.All in all WAS FUN! Quite an interesting final as well. Always great seeing Paprika on screen. I hope yall had fun in this """"last"""" rodeo. Who knows what the future holds, but don't hold your breath either.And yeah.STOP BEING SO HORNY
God, I would fuck every last ungulate in Foenum if given half the chance. Starting with Velvet and Stronghoof.

Do any of you still occasionally play tfh? My last game was at the last QT. What's the qrd on the game's situation. I'm hearing the ip has exchange hands once again and official servers are now gone.
>>42519553idk
is nidra really a stance character?her "stances" kind of just feel like really complicated rekkas. she doesn't really spend much time inside any of the stances, just momentarily to either gain magic or use one of the moves.this also applies to shanty but in the sense that she's even less of one than nidra is.
>>42520500Never has there been a character more built for stockings than Pom.
>>42520501She is a cute one to draw in them
>>42520501it just werks

>>42522320Perchance.
>>42522339this isacceptable
>>42519553gaem is dedderthred is kill
>>42520065Shanty is more of a "run" character. Think Guy in Street Fighter, or El Fuerte if you're feeling spicy. Run > Stop pressure with different followups to mix up.Nidra is a stance character, and that's usually how stances work. Swapping in and out of stances, usually only for a brief moment to abuse a certain string or followup. Think Soul Calibur's Siegfried. Not every stance is a total change in playstyle, they're generally just a way to temporarily gain a few options.

TFH has a new publisher listed on the Steam page. They have no games of their own and seemingly only purchased TFH and Diesel Legacy from MaxEnt.https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/2070758/000207075825000001/xslFormDX01/primary_doc.xmlThey got a $1 million investment from someone or some group
>>42524662>Diesel legacyThat's that kinda shitty looking lane based fighting game MikeZ was working on Hmmmm
>>42524662I don't know if it would be hilarious or sad if this new publisher gave us a season 2 DLC and just didn't fix any of the issues with the season 1 characters.
>>42524662https://thegameplaygroup.com/https://www.linkedin.com/company/thegameplaygroupSeems to be entirely new, 5 employees listed only in the linkedin but they say they got 11-50 employeeshttps://www.imdb.com/name/nm13320761/hold on, one of them already worked for the game
>>42524690https://br.linkedin.com/in/mario-cruz-1a7826244/
Mario is one of the people that joined the team in 2022 with the sale to Maximum Entertainment, he was credited as Combat Design on the website and also worked on Diesel Legacyhttps://x.com/octokortex
>>42524725>combat design post 2022It's so over.
>>42524746he only seemed to worked on TFH in 2022 and 2023, so the dads only.Not much of a disaster as whoever worked on Baihe>I had the opportunity to work on this game, implementing characters, new mechanics, and the story mode. The project had already been released in 2018, and much of my work on the game also involved analyzing and fixing bugs. >the story modemaybe he is based
>>42524751Shit, the new publishers might have gold on their hands if they decide to just finish up the story and release it. The whole script is done and chapter 2 has got to be 90% done when Mane6 abandoned it. They could probably even get away with selling it as DLC.
>>42524680>MikeZ buys as much of the Z-engine back as he canwould be funny
bah
>>42524690>one of them already worked for the gameHopefully one that indeed did work on the game and not just powertrip on discord?
>>42525406probably the former considering most people have never heard of him until now
On the subject of future DLC: no whitetail music, no buy.
>>42524761If he makes it work, it would be the funnies comeback.
Which TFH character should appear as a guest in another fighting game? And which game?
>>42525828i don't even like platform fighters but rivals 2 is the lowest hanging fruit here, both being animal games

>>42528170Weird that you single out Velvet when Paprika, Tianhuo, and Oleander also aren't present
>>42528195they're already adults
>>42528195Paprika was sadly deded when she tried to hug Fred
>>42528195Oleander is a horse elf who will live to 200 years (when short lived races in TFH die of old age around 30), she's probably barely changed in the years, and Tianhuo is an unspecified extreme age, possibly thousands of years, so she would be completely unchanged when everyone else including Oleander is dead
>>42528667wrongshe would be loonger
>>42528685maybe slightly but 10 years or however long it took Ari to grow up is such a small fraction of her lifespan it wouldn't have changed much
>>42528974depends on how many longma balls she's gathered in that timesurely Shenlongma would impart on her increased length for the feat of gathering them.
