    Gravity on the Moon?

    Hype grass tier thread here lol- but, why is the gravity so strong on the moon XD?

    Maybe there is a lore explanation coming up, I just got here.. yet I was actually quite a bit bummed it was the same as on the planet (or so similar I can't tell, I mean it could be boosted but my brain is telling me it's not at all). To be honest I'd probably feel bummed even if there was an immediate lore explanation.. Either way I was looking forward to a moon jump.

    Especially when I dropped down to get to the Forlorn spirits taking massive fall damage as I did so. The sort of disappointment that doesn't make you want to stop playing or anything but just the sort you were really excited to try out a new weapon and realize it's not that cool, so you switch back to the other weapon you do like and keep going on.

    Not saying it needs to be insane hulk jumps, but I feel if there was simply a slow fall effect that would automatically make the moon feel more interesting (than it already is, it is cool, I'm just pretty bummed about the jump thing lol).

    A mild slow fall plus a mild boost to jump height, and a drastic nerf to fall damage I imagine would be chef's kiss to bringing the whole visual element full circle.

    NOT IMPORTANT, just... really struck my child like excitement down. Maybe there is some coding issue to it, if not I hope the dev team can try it out on their own... I really believe it would be neat.

    Thank you for coming to my Ted Talk . . . :3

    Lol! That too. "Yeah bois I'm going to the moon"

    ".....yep yep sounds fine okay, no questions- lets not bother to ask if you need air"

    They were super smooth about it certainly lol. But I think in any space game I've ever played I always test out the gravity, if that's a thing you can do. Like the Mako vehicle in mass effect and getting epic lunar jumps off because.. because..

    Lack of care about going to the moon is lower priority than not being able to moon jump, personally at least.

    So they stole another planet's gravity and put it inside the moon, giving the moon even more gravity?!

    Or they took the moon's gravity, and locked it.. into.. the moon... Which.... *brain explodes* lol

    Open to the suggestion if you have one. Can spoiler tag it under [hb ] [/hb ] (remove the spaces in the tag)

    They do make a passing comment explaining it later, but yeah it's one of those "look just don't think about it too hard" moments.
