>"Arachnophobia Mode"
I can't tell if you're mad at people who use it or people who get mad at people using it
>>723443876>full offusually it's only a couple monster variants
>arachnophilia mode
>>723443968
>>723443968Good ole Northern Journey.
I don't blame VR games for having them
>>723443925Can't tell if you are a victim of grooming or a groomer
>>723443993The best answer to arachnophobia mode
The most helpful thing to do would be to have a game without spiders by default but arachnophobia mode adds them. Exposure therapy.
>Homophobia mode
>>723443876honestly, don't know why the fear of spiders, they are extremely useful in cleansing inferior bugs from someone's houseI always keep my windows slightly open so they can freely circulate, and I think you should do it too
>>723444268I'm all three people, genuinely
they should make it so when you turn on arachnophobia mode there are three times as many spiders
I dropped Bloodborne because I was too pussy to run through the area with the spider enemies. DS2 was fine, but the black widows in BB made my skin crawl.
>>723444298but that goes againt OP's pic
>>723443876>I deliberately enabled a mode that I do not like and now I'm mad>How could this be happening to me
>>723444268Hey look, a zeta gundam reference!
I played WoW for the War Within release... but had been playing a bit prior to that to get accustomed to the game again, and I forgot I had turned on arachnophobia mode. So I was playing through the intro to TWW when the attack on Dalaran begins, and I'm wondering to myself, why are these lobstrok attacking the city? Wasn't until I landed on the ground below after being teleported that I realized I had it enabled and turned it off to see we had been killing nerubians the whole time.
>>723443876>>723443968
>More options for gamers>this is somehow a bad thing
Spiders are horrifying
>>723443876What's with this shitty modern fad of pretending to be afraid of spiders? Ten years ago I never heard anyone go "I'd love to play this game but can't because it has spiders". Nowadays people are flooding the steam forums if your game doesn't have an arachnophobia mode yelling about how it's impossible for them to even consider buying it without one.
>>723443876Who could be disgusted/horrified by this adorable spooder?
>>723443876Yes
I worry for the future of humanity. Courage is not the absence of fear, it's the ability to overcome it. The way to manage emotions and experiences is to live them and learn how to handle them. Instead the mentality of certain people currently is to avoid experiences, meaning they never learn or grow.>Exposure therapy is a technique in behavior therapy to treat anxiety disorders. Exposure therapy involves exposing the patient to the anxiety source or its context. Doing so is thought to help them overcome their anxiety or distress. Numerous studies have demonstrated its effectiveness in the treatment of disorders such as generalized anxiety disorder, social anxiety disorder, obsessive-compulsive disorder, post-traumatic stress disorder, and specific phobias.Unironically facing spiders in video games and VR and such is actual psychological therapy for arachnophobia. By avoiding these experiences the current media power holders are ensuring people don't conquer their fears. Perhaps intentionally?It's like how areas that have removed peanuts from schools because of peanut allergies then have an increased rate of peanut allergies because kids' immune systems aren't exposed to them. Either these people are so incompetent their attempts to help are actively harmful, or they're deliberately being malicious.
>>723445207Mental illnesses are popular and profitable these days. Rather than trying to succeed in life it's easier to get special treatment for being pathetic.
>>723444348Spiders in the garden are good because they eat more harmful insects. A mosquito will give you west nile virus. A spider will eat the mosquito that would have given you west nile virus.
>>723445840basedfuck those blood sucking bastards
>>723444268
>>723445454Is that Hunter pregnant now???
>>723443968t.
I don't understand being terrified of animals much, much smaller than you that are easily squished with minimum effort 99% of the time.
I just don't understand how this became a random thing to cater to. It's like vitiligo on character creation. Who the fuck actually asked for that?
>>723446520Certain people beg for special treatment because it makes them feel special and gives them power over others. The actual specifics don't matter, it's all about making others cater to them.
>>723445840>t.
>>723446321Imagine giving birth to 10000 spiders
>>723443876People's fear of spiders is so stupid. Spiders are really helpful for getting rid of insects and pests. They're good little bros if you just leave them alone. Besides it's not like we go out of our way to make webs in your gaming space most of the time.
>>723446439that is why it is called a phobia or an irrational fear
>>723446853Typical NPC response. I expected this comment. Congratulations.
>>723445003>game has to go out of its way to add an option for an extremely small subset of "people" to not make brown in their pants>this is somehow a good thing
>>723443876Arachnophobia mode should add a random spider jumpscare into the game maybe during a cutscene
>>723446439Haha well you see, I'm afraid I might end up having sex with them.
>>723445003It's a bad thing that they're virtue signaling with stupid shit that almost nobody will ever use.Kind of like recent character creators having a vitiligo option...for no reason other than the dev screaming LOOK LOOK, LOOK AT HOW INCLUSIVE WE ARE
Kill all spider apologists
>>723447217>>723446996Why does it bother you? Does colorblind options cause you this pain too? What about difficulty sliders? Character customization? Customizable loadouts? Gun/player skins? Advocating for less options is retarded and leads to stagnation in games. Y'all complained about brown and bloom for decades then cry when things get too colorful. You just hate videogames.
>>723447028If any developer ever had the balls to do something like this I would give them money.
>>723447028>>723447718Not quite the same but I think West of Loathing has an arachnophilia mode that just replaces every mob with spiders.
>>723443968>t.>>723444018kek true. That game has so many fucking spiders that it jokes about it too
Spiders are bros. All detractors are spiritually transgendered.
>>723447691You go from things with no impact on gameplay to thinks with a great deal of impact. Very stupid.Do you think character customization is just a blanket good thing all games should have because hurr more options better
>>723443876>enable arachnophobia mode>doesn't actually trigger arachnophobia
>>723447987>You go from things with no impact on gameplay to thinks with a great deal of impact. Very stupid.This is the same slippery slope you fucks use to argue against shit like this. its fucking stupid, isn't it?>Durr hurr inclusivity is virtue signaling and making games woke.Shut the fuck up and let people enjoy videogames. Don't use shit you don't like.
sex with 8 legged, hairy, web spinning creatures for the sole purpose of procreation
>>723447691>Y'allAnd that's where you got too obvious.
>>723447691>basic difficulty options and character customization is apparently of equal prominence to a fucking 'WAAAH SPIDERS ARE LE SCARY" buttonWhatever helps (You) help at night.

>>723448470>Food analogy but mathKill yourself.
>>723443876>>723443968Is this the thread?
Grounded is a particularly egregious case of this. Look at this shit. Who does this appeal to?Another game I can't remember the name of has a toggle that replaces spiders with a 3d model of the word 'SPIDER'. Come the fuck on.
>>723443876>Play game>Like it>Suddenly game with no spiders before has big ass freaky looking spiders out of no where>Get too scared/grossed out to play game I otherwise would likeIt's that simple.I wish more things had arachnophobia mode. I hate going on YouTube and getting jumpscared because some douche put a huge realistic spider in their video
>>723448967Sounds like a (You) problem. Consider the following: not playing games or watching Youtube. It's that simple.
Why does arachnaphobia mode make some people so angry?
>>723448967Since people are posting spiders in the thread and you're here I'm guessing you're trolling.You're surrounded by spiders every time you go outside. Statistically there's probably multiple spiders in your home. There's probably even one in the room you're in right now.Hope you sleep well!
>>723449119>there's a spider inside you right now
HEY GUYS GUYSDID YOU KNOWSTATISTICALLY YOU EAT 7 SPIDERS IN YOUR SLEEP EVERY YEAR??HAHAHAHA SWEET DREAMS BITCHES
>>723448967>everything has to appeal to me>developers have to ditch their artistic vision and make shit specially for mass consumption
>>723443876I have a fear of heights and I demand the developers of Mirror's Edge to lower the height of all the skyscrapers.
>>723449371Same here, and I'm not afraid of them in vidya because guess what? It's not real and it can't hurt me. Simple as.Now that I think about it, yeah, why is it just spiders that have been given special treatment? What about snakes, or the dark, or high heights, or I dunno, the fucking phobia that makes you think a duck is always watching you??? What makes arachnophobia so different?
>>723448897>Another game (...) has a toggle that replaces spiders with a 3d model of the word 'SPIDER'That would be Lethal Company. Also fucking lol, lmao even.
>>723448897This is the gayest horseshit I've ever seen in my fucking life.>>723450465This is actually pretty funny.
I never got it. In real life spiders creep me out but I have no issue with them in vidya. Meanwhile I know a guy who literally is crippled by them even in vidya, and has to do elaborate shit even in MH Wilds to fight Nerscylla, like playing through obs and shrinking the fuck out of the screen and dying repeatedly because he refuses to look at the spider enemy.
>>723450465Isn't that a dedicated horror game? Why would they put options to make it less scary.
>>723447825*chair clattering*
>>723450896it's a co-op game so this way you can bring along your pussy friends who refuse to play games that have spiders in them
>>723444347God I wish we could get this mode.>disables faggots, niggers, strong women, and any other DEI shit
pretty sure its a psyop of some kind
>>723445274>6 legs>3 segments>no chelicerae or pedipalpsThis is an insect
>>723451035>playing any tranny-coded game in the first placeDon't get ahead of yourself.
>>723443876Since the feature is harmless yet upsets certain retards like OP I personally hope every game has it. Because retards getting angry about options are fucking retards and I like laughing at them
>>723445003UMMM THIR?! IT TOOK SOME INTERN LIKE A FULL FRICKIN AFTERNOON OF TIME TO DO IT! THEY COULD HAVE USED THAT TIME TO PUT IN SOMETHING I WANTED
>>723450896Lethal Company is more like horror/comedy. The arachnophobia mode is clearly just a joke.
>>723450896because grotesque monsters and the crushing realization you're working a dead-end job (literally and figuratively) is all well and good but A SPIDER??? that's too much, add ze pussy bitch button or we'll lose 0.8% of our playerbase
Games should not have a brightness feature. Devs shouldn't need to program shit differently because boohoo my eyes can't see in the dark as well/me have sensitive blue eyz ;-;
>>723444023cute
>>723443876I don't know if it makes it better or worse.
I'm an arachnophobe but the only Vidya spider that scared me was the Skyrim frostbite spider that drops from the ceiling and and attacked me like a jump scare. EDF Spiders are so goofy but the web climbing Retarius spiders that drag you into their web unnerve me so I always kill them first. NPC's also love to get tangled up and die in their threads too so it's a good strategy anyway.People are too sensitive nowadays.
>>723451658There's no reason to not include it and developers are here to make money, not do some gay manly ritual of manhood for your ass.
>>723448897the floating mushroom is scary
>>723448897>make more moneyor>make less money for no reason except feeling like a bad assI'll take the extra green
The only game that had spiders that actually spooked me despite being pretty arachnophobic in real life, was The Hunt Showdown. And it’s mainly because it’s a fucking car-sized spider that moves at the same relative speed as a regular spider. And it’s great.
>>723443876Why can't we have no women mode for once
>>723452104Too difficult. Any other retarded questions? Maybe why the sky is blue?
>>723452104because not everyone is a gay faggot like you
>>723452104I would prefer a Malephobia mode so I can exclusively kill women as much as I want.
>>723452104>>>/y/
>>723452178What about a no niggers mode? Do you think it's easy enough to make?
>>723452104>no women mode>player disappearscongrats:3
>>723445454Flubber :D !
>>723447691Because it's taking away valuable development time and resources away from making the game better in other areas.
>>723445485Never suspect malicious intent when you can't rule out stupidity.

>>723452636How the fuck is someone afraid of a condiment?
>>723451650still the funniest thing they added and was useless in monhun wilds, they applied the arachnophobia mode to the small monsters to make them slimes and yet nerscylla (a big spider monster) still looks the same

>>723448396Nice 4 legged spider you got there, must be already in arachnophobe mode.
>>723445454hot
>>723445454The fuck is inside the sludges? Have they spiders as skeletons? This is 100 times more terrifying than just having spiders.
Imagine being scared of images of spidersWith real ones the “scary” part is that they can bite you and it will itch for a few days. How is an image gonna bite you
>>723445454What game? Picking up immediately.
>>723445131It's amazing how hard the author shat the bed with this one.>turns into a "human" with vague spiderlike qualities>focuses too much on worthless and boring humans>Elf terminators>that ending

>>723452382That'd actually pretty funny and news worthy if a dev did something like that.
>>723444348Because they have souls, a superior burning awareness with vast hivemind intellect which frightens lesser humans, such as redditors. Who flip out at seeing graphic spiders. The winter is fast approaching so be good to your fellow spiders and let them nest inside.
Why don't any of the OTHER extremely common phobias ever get dedicated pussy modes in games
>>723445003>Play horror game!>Don't want to be horrified!
>>723451809Yeah bro and all the car racing games should have an option that makes the cars be invisible just in case someone who doesn't like cars still wants to play the car racing game for some reason, utter clownworld shit
>>723445003Such options take development time and resources. That same time and those same resources, no matter how minor and slight, can be better used to making the game more complete, optimized, or interesting. It is a waste to cater to a social contagion for a group of people pretending to be scared of something, particularly when that thing they are pretending to be scared of is obviously going to be in the game. It would be like putting in a "Thalassophobia" mode for Subnautica or Barotrauma. Sure, all they have to do is turn off the render for the water, and then optionally make the O2 meter a "flight" meter for the people who are "really" afraid of deep water, but it is a waste and pointless to do even if it only takes 2 minutes to implement. It ruins the theme of the game, it contributes nothing to the gameplay, it wastes time, and the stupid fuck heads asking for such a mode knew exactly what they were buying in the first place.
>you don't like gay AIDS anal penetration butt "sex"? >that's a phobia my dude
>>723448897The craziest thing about Grounded is that it will ask you THREE TIMES if you want to play the game with the arachnophobia setting turned off.>Be sure to turn on the arachnophobia mode bro, there are spiders in this game about fighting spiders>Are you sure you don't want the arachnophobia mode turned on bro? There are literal spiders in this game that's about fighting spiders>BRO, YOU'RE ABOUT TO PLAY THE GAME ABOUT FIGHTING SPIDERS WITH THE ARACHNOPHOBIA MODE TURNED OFF BRO. YOU'LL SEE THE SPIDERS BRO, YOU GOTTA TURN ON THE ARACHNOPHOBIA MODE BROMy god, FUCK OFF
>>723448471The thing is we don't actually live in that world, but some stupid people want to insist we do so they can feel self-righteous outrage when something uncomfortable inevitably pops up. The thing is if we actually did live in that world, these same stupid faggots would be going out of their way to try to make themselves uncomfortable anyways, so they can whine about being uncomfortable. Because it's not about comfort, it's about validation and ego stroking.
>>723447294Fuck you, bloodsucking pest
>>723457801I look like this
>>723453653Surprise, fucker!
I never understood this arachnophobia trend.I am an arachnophobe but spiders in videogames never triggered that, or at least it triggered it only during horror segments/games... which isn't that the point?Having a huge detailed spider that's skitter towards you, if I'm playing a horror game I WANT to be horrified, no?I don't get it, maybe it's because I also think spiders look cool in spite of them freaking me out when met in real life but I really wish people going "OMG SO SCARY SPIDER PLS ARACHNOPHOBIA MODE" would get bitten by a thousand of black widows.
>>723457801nobody told you to have gay sex
>>723443876only annoying thing about it is that like 99% of the time the spiders are killable enemies so you can try and squish your fearbut having cynophobia and every fucking dog in any game is always some retarded "hecking pet this pupperiiiino very good boy you cant kill them or harm them in any way btw :)" is annoying
>>723459578Cope
>>723445840I wish gaming companies realized this and started having spiders in their offices again. A healthy spider could eat dozens of bugs EACH DAY. Nowadays gamedev is full of women who'll scream and call for an exterminator if they see one. Hence the recent games release as filthy bug-filled mess.
>>723459786you make a good point
>>723443876>arachnophobia mode>turns everything into spidersHas anyone done this yet?
>>723459786A lot of our current life is dictated by soulless automatons, anon.Gardens, for example, should be built to attract pollinators and helpful bugs, rather than being generic green grass to be cut exactly at 2.571 inches NO CLOVERS ALLOWED ABSOLUTELY NOT!!!In my town we used to have so many dragonflies, so many ladybugs, lighting bugs and even ants... now we have stinkbugs, mosquitoes, we have earwigs and I've started to see some roaches too.We still have some centipedes, the type with the spindly long legs that eat other bugs... but I really miss how things used to be, being 32 it's like I saw a glimpse of a world that looked so good and I couldn't wait to be in it and then for some reason everything started rotting into mush.
>>723450465That's just funny.
>>723447691>Why does it bother you?Symptom of a developer being bad and making a game that will have problems the more you play itA similar symptom being:>Y'all>brown and bloom>too colorfulGames today are washed out shit with anti-soul fog
>>723450896>dedicated horrorHaha, good one anon>>723457426Oh they do anon!You can enable the option to filter chat for common fears like homophobia!
>>723443876Arachnophobes are the whiniest phobics out there and bitch and complain more than any other phobic I've seen. I've got entomophobia and going through the blood clinic in fallout 4 which is swarming with giant mosquitoes gave me sever anxiety but I cleared it out because it's a video game and I'm not a bitch.
>>723449117Because if you have this deep phobia of something stupid then people are going to be annoyed at others who feed into your gay delusions. It's pathetic. It's the ultimate admission that you're bitch made
>>723460365That sounds sad. My condolences anon.
>>723443876I never understand this option. I am also bad with insect in general but I don't freak out whenever they appear on my screen. My legs also turns into jelly whenever I went to high places but I don't feel anything when jumping from planes in video games. Are people just that bad at distinguishing fake and reality nowadays? Is this the future for all Ipad children?
>>723460752>gave me sever anxietyYou're just as bad as them, you shouldn't get any sort of anxiety from video game forms of your phobia.
>>723449117niggers on /v/ don't actually care, they just want to complain about things
>>723451650THE RAPED
>togglephobia threadAIIIIIIIIIEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE IS THAT AN OPTIONAL TOGGLE IN THE MENU GET IT AWAY FROM ME
>>723460854>You're just as bad as themIf I was as bad as them I'd be kicking and screaming for a no bug toggle but I'm not going to because that's retarded.
>>723460807I never understand why people bring up height phobia in games. You can't tell distance in games retard, you don't have depth perception, what the fuck would you be afraid of? Even in VR games the max focal distance is like 2 meters. Who's afraid of being 2 meters up?
>>723460752Its just fad to be currently "conscious" about. It'll pass. Hopefully. I have literal, actual homophobia thanks to bad childhood trauma. Logically I dont give a fuck what people do behind locked doors, but being in the presence of someone I know is gay makes my stomach churn and I get very anxious. Its a visceral reaction I cannot control even though I know it makes no sense. But bringing that up EVER in today's "inclusive" society would be a social suicide and would likely get me fired instantly. Sadly, this also ruins most of the new games for me.
>>723460973No you're kicking and screaming because a no bug toggle exists, and you've been doing it in these threads for years now.
>>723461057>Schizobabble with no way to prove itYeah, sure I have.
ITT: people too scared to go outside acting tough because they don't have 1 specific phobia
>>723460807You lack depth perception in games, making fear of heights much more tolerable. VR games are a lot worse.>>723461016Depends on headset. The cheap/early ones with tiny screen are very limited. The never ones can have up to 200m simulated focal length.
>>723443876Arachnophobia mode should spawn a message saying "Toughen up, pussy" and increase the number of spiders in the game by 50%
>>723446439Lots of them are poisonous, dumbass. Maybe its instinctual?
>>723461113>no way to prove itYou're doing it right now. You're whining about a menu toggle right now. And these threads have been made weekly for years now so
>>723457426too much work
>>723461135>never ones can have up to 200m simulated focal lengthYeah nobody has those, those are in some lab somewhere or cost thousands of dollars.

>>723452556t.jew
>>723461168Don't move the goalpost retard, you said that that I was kicking and screaming over there being a bug toggle, and now you're changing it to kicking and screaming over a menu toggle.
>>723461016>>723461135Then wouldn't the knowledge of the object isn't real is enough to not trigger it? Like I get it with VR, since it covers a lot more of more of your senses but does a flat 2D plane can really trigger phobia response? Unless if the screen is really large or something. Or is it just that easy to trick human brain into believing something?
>>723457426>A fear of situations where escape might be difficult, leading people to avoid public or open placeswhat the fuck is the AI and whoever fed it that information smokingthose are literally very easy to escape from
>>723461219Its just about turning the lenses and having some extra screenspace to the sides, its slightly more expensive but not rocket science.
>ever since i have memories i didnt fear spiders>watch spider documentary as a kid>start fearing spiders>couple of years later, completely stopped caring>no more fear of spiders>even keep some spiders over the years in the corner of my bedroom that catch the ocassional fly and mosquito that comes in
>>723443925/v/ is more mad at that mode than arachnophobics seeing spiders in a game.t. arachnophobic who played EDF
>>723461446Yes it is. There's a classical psychological experiment where you sit in front of a table, your hand extended out under it. A fake arm is put on the table right above your own arm, then both are touched in same positions couple times. When the fake arm is smashed with a hammer, pretty much everyone jolts and many even register physical pain in their arm just from the expectation. If your brain expects pain seeing a hand smashed that you know isnt "real" just because circumstance is similar enough, I dont see why brain wouldnt get scared of a thing it fears even if you know it isnt "real" just because circumstance is similar enough.
>>723457780>It would be like putting in a "Thalassophobia" mode for Subnautica or Barotrauma.Honestly that sounds comical for Barotrauma, replace the background with a blue sky with a bunch of cartoon clouds and have some 80s music playing when the sub move.
>>723461797>have fear if depths>turn on thalassophobia mode>realize that you also have fear of heights
>>723461159Just crush it with your fang impenetrable boot you fucking pussy.

>>723460216>arachnophobia mode>turns anything spiderlike super realistic
Why and how did this even become a thing? It's so fucking weird. Why just spider in general when phobias for things like dogs, snakes and heights are just as common?
>>723443876>it always Arachnophobia >no other phobias being included I hate Phobiasicm.
I have notmephobia. Where is the option to remove not-mes? I mean from real life, not just video games.
Fucking silverfish weird and gross me out harder than any other insect or arachnid ever possibly could.I don't even know why.
>>723449117I think spiders are pretty cool and are staple enemy in videogames yet not many if them get them right. They are usually the same as the rest of enemies except it deals poison damage and can incapacitate with webs. Meanwhile they should also skitter fast as fuck on walls and ceilings making barely any noise.Catering to arachnophobiafags makes Devs to include less and less spiders
>>723462393>t.narcissistic psychopath
>>723448897>Who does this appeal to?The people who like to boast online about how mentally ill they are just so people will coddle them because their parents didn't love them growing up
>>723462338It's all virtue signaling and similar performative behaviors. Coddled adult children are too spoiled to even consider overcoming hurdles in safe environments.Spiders are also the most common fear due to instinctual aversion compared to dogs which is usually learned. Snakes aren't as common as house spiders. Spiders are also easier to remove than heights.

>>723462383Is this porn?
>>723462479Yes. Why should I have to share MY world with people who AREN'T ME?
>>723443876Why does arachnophobia get such special treatment? There's million of retarded phobias that never get a mention but fake spiders are treated like you're about to get raped by a pack of niggers.
>>723462526>Spiders are also the most common fear due to instinctual aversion compared to dogs which is usually learned. Snakes aren't as common as house spiders. Spiders are also easier to remove than heights.so just because it's more common that means we should exclude the ones that are less common as if they don't matter or matter less? That's literally discrimination, my guy. While we're at it, maybe we should we just remove all wheelchair ramps too since not being handicapped is more common than being handicapped?

>>723452960Same with lala barina. I like to think someone at Capcom just had a sense of humor and decided it’s funnier to lull pussies into a false sense of security before they got hit with the bigger spiders.
>>723462713>it hugs you with its pedipalps>yfw you realize it was a male spider
>>723462531"Pepe is reddit" is revisionist history
>>723462338Yeah, that's what I don't get. Like I get finding (large) spiders a bit creepy or that some people are really afraid of them, but like since when is that a major social issue that needs special "accessibility" options in games when other comparable things don't. It's especially ridiculous when it's a horror game that's supposed to be scary.
>>723462946resident fags will forever be trigger that resident Chuds altered the course of history with a fucking frog image
>>723452556It's absolutely intentional and malicious. As is everything else contributing to the grand enshittening of the human condition. All of this is happening because vile parasites in the vague shape of people who view actual humans as cattle managed to parasitize the entire world.
>>723443876>Oh my god I am scared of something that you are supposed to be scared of>Help help! I can't be an adult and just get over it!>THE WORLD SHOULD REVOLVE AROUND ME ALONE, FUCKING BIGOTS
Apparently there is no spider on earth that can actually kill you with its venom. Which is surprising to me when shit like THIS this exists in Australia.
>>723463042>man I can't stop sucking all these dicks like the huge faggot I am
>>723463306
>>723463258But I heard the black widow venom is deadly
>>723462078Sorry, the Sydney funnel-web can punch through shoe leather so not even gonna try it.
>>723463350No it's just a neurotoxin, it'll hurt like hell yes but it won't kill. The venom you really want to watch out for it necrotic, that shit will literally rot your skin away. A brown recluse has necrotic venom but that's still not enough to kill you unless you let the wound get infected like a retard.
There's a jumpy boi who likes to hang around my deskHe's climbed onto my monitor and chased my mouse cursor a few timesI love these little guys so much
>>723463541I wish they were larger so we could have an easier time petting them.
>>723463541Just tell it fuck off back to its hole.
>>723463258>Apparently there is no spider on earth that can actually kill you with its venomThe male sydney funnelweb will put you six feet under lmao.
>Oh hey anon I hope you don't mind I left my kids at your place.
>>723463350>>723463538for the brown recluse depends how much they inject and your bite site, yes itll melt away you skin as it kills tissue but I think anyone dumb to fuck with one much more even, enough to let a big ass spider bite them for longer than a picosecond deserves it.
>>723448396The second panel makes it appear as though the little turtle creature reverse anal vored the bug
>>723445003The fuck happen to that wojak?
>>723447691>the seething replies that can barely string a sentence togetherClearly people who hate accessibility options are brownoids. No surprise there.
Arachnophobia is something people think they have despite the fact that it's fairly normal to think bugs are scary. Phobia usually means you can't even function or go into some tard rage..
>>723463601This but I wish they were bigger so I have an easier time fucking them
>>723463350technically its survivable, especially with medical attention, the issue is compounding conditions
>>723463541Jumping spiders are cool as hell, I'm happy for you anon. They are surprisingly smart for such small things. They can formulate rudimentary plans for hunting and navigation (like taking strategic detours to get to best possible ambush location) and use tactics like mimicking sounds to lure prey. Its somewhat contested, but they might be also able to recognize faces, so your jumping spider might recognize you on some level. I fucking love jumping spiders.
>>723445003>the artist could have used the resources to make the art better>the dev could have used the resources to improve the UIspider hiding is a waste of resources that can be put elsewhere
>>723464346NTA but I got close up to one in my room and just waved at him as soon as he saw the giant with him is harmless the little fella spent time jumping around behind my desk moving from place to place charming guy.
>>723446439mammals were raped by snakes and spider for millions and millions of years.
>>723464408>brooo it costs so many resourcesNo it doesn't.
the only acceptable time to implement an "arachnophobia" mode would be for VR games, and before anyone pulls the coward bitch card, go play Metro VR and get back to me when you successfully survive a freak mutant spider facehugger jumpscare.
>>723462881Females also have pedipalps anonThey just don't fill them with sperm
>>723462774I would impregnate this creature so hard
>>723464460Happy to hear that. They really are harmless, as they are so hunting-minded that they dont even try to bite something as huge as human. We had one in our front garden this summer, really cute fella, but I havent seen it for months now. I hope he is okay.
>>723454198The elf terminators were pretty cool, i can live with that. But turning her into a generic human ruined it. The manga was at it's best when it was about an autistic little spider fighting against the odds. Also he should have just left out all the nonsense of her classmates. No one gives a shit about them. I can't even remember a single one of their names.
>>723462713Ok.
>>723462774What spiders are these actually based on? THey kind of look like camel spiders but the body is a little different.
>>723461159None of them are poisonous, but they are venomous.
>>723443876reminder that the game about spiders doing spider things had an arachnophobia mode
>>723464681It likely got picked off by a bird or something. That's just nature i guess.
>>723459776Yeah, it is a cope
>>723450465gmod type shit
sex with spiders
>>723467359gross
>>723467460we are not talking about the same thing
>>723447691>Does colorblind options cause you this pain too?Colorblind options are the easiest fucking filter to make ever and 1 in 12~ people are affected by color blindness, it's also something that often directly impacts gameplay and you can't really do anything to get over it. Arachnophobia is like 3-6% of the population, it takes more effort to make a new model, and a even lesser number is has it to the point where it's "crippling" and would actually affect their willingness to play the game.It's less so "WAHHHH MORE OPTIONS!" and more so "Why are the devs wasting manpower dedicating to what is honestly a extremely small section of people who could honestly do with the exposure therapy."Where's Ophidiophobia, Cynophobia, Astraphobia etc... where's the filters for all of these very common phobias?It's just a complete waste added because fags pretending to have "arachnophobia" will complain.I have spheksophobia to the point where I will shut down in public if a wasp even flies near me and I shut up and take it in video games and it's made me feel amazing when I conquered my fear for vidya wasps (still hate irl wasps). Arachnophobia fags are just pussies.
>>723464615That's the joke. Remember if a spider touches you with his palps and it has little boxing gloves at the end it's technically touching you with its dicks.
>>723450465Imagine a chud mode where black characters are replaced with the word nigger
>>723446270HIGHERWE NEED TO GO HIGHER
>>723443876>Arachnophobia mode doesnt make the bugs cute like the Milton and Hans follower mod
>>723456681nvm
Arachnophobia mode should make MC pass out when seeing spiders thus forcing the player to watch their character being eaten alive.
>>723451809Adding that arachnophobia mode isn't free
>>723446270Kek.
>>723469502i'm waiting for the game that when you turn arachnophobia mode on it fills the screen with skittering spider and says "you asked for this"
>N-word filter mode>everytime you press a button, there's a random chance for your character to shout "NIGGER"
I'm pretty arachnophobic, but for some reason it doesn't trigger at all for jumping spiders, I guess they're just too adorable.I've never given two shits about spiders in video games, though. Never even considered they might be a problem to someone.
>>723443968>turn this on>just turns the "spider" into a human with 4 arms(hypothetical) Game devs are ... really really gay.
>>723445003yeah add like 800 fucking sliders and toggles for every retarded thing people are scared of, who cares about bloat and development waste
>>723447825>THIS BITCH IS SCARING MY FEMALES DURING MATING SEASON
>add arachnophobia mode>remove breast sliderWhat? Why? I thought more options where great?
