well they could always be captured and potentially tamed by the beastmaster or what ever he is called
I love how a thread asking for no spiders becomes a thread brainstorming how they could be implemented in game

Worst case scenario spiders can be modded out. As for giant spiders being in it, they are kind of a fantasy staple for monsters so itās quite possible, on the other hand one of the devs has said for example that they wo
I have no idea when I typed that bit above - it was likely near the birth of the thread - so Iām afraid I canāt tell you what the bit of critical information that is half typed was.
As for the current off topic topic I have a planned monster race of spider-esque beings, one of my very few actual plans along with the MMM. Hopefully a fully playable race eventually but Iāve been having trouble working out things like architecture, giant webs are fine and all that but you canāt really build a forge on them. Itās why I think Iām going to have to shift to things like caves, gorges, or forested areas and a give them a fair bit of magic to make up for not having very conventional materials. If only I could run Qubicle, oh well have to stick to scratchings of concept art.

You canāt run Qubicle? Your computer just canāt handle it or something? 
donāt forget spiders donāt just have webs, they have trapdoors and various other nests and silken structures
Edit: make a thread and post your āscratchingsā, iām interested in what you have come up with 
For some reason the OpenGL screws up when I try running it under windows and it refuses to start, when I use wine and mac it runs but all the buttons and ui and stuff is just solid blocks of grey that arenāt at all useful.
Yeah, there is the other stuff like that to consider. Although as I mentioned theyāre spider-esque as theyāre pretty much a spider succubus hybrid only with most of the MA parts thatād normally go with a succubus changed a fair bit, that should be enough to warn you that there will be some very weird stuff going on. Of course some of my other ideas that are less likely to get prioritised include more extreme nightmare fuel/creepy strategy, like the ghoul kitsune cross, undead that look somewhat like large wounded rotting obese men that ooze pus and devour the flesh of the living that are actually not evil and instead like playing childish tricks on people and taking on the form of young children (primarily girls) in a totally non perverted kind of way (excepting that theyāre a perverted undead abomination of life). Sounds good no? Young playful girl may actually be obese rotting zombie that was formed from the soul of a murderer? Really itās a pity that children look unlikely to be in the official release, they can be used for so many different purposes that just donāt work as well with only adults.

If you wanted to, I could ālendā you my laptop for a while and let you whip up some models on Qubicle on my computer using Team Viewer? It would have to be arranged of course but Iām happy to help you out if you want it

Iāll post some tonight, theyāre kinda weird though so they may not make much sense unless you know what youāre looking at. A combination of notes, diagrams and bad drawings all in a mess.
@Smokestacks, Iāll decline. No need to trouble you and I know that when I actually get it running I will spend a lot of time in not much time playing around with it. Besides my drawings are enough for now and theyāll help make sure that by the time I actually get it I should know what I want to do, my main fear is going to be webs. Giant webs that can be crawled across and are basically generated, Iāll have to include them in the post.
Not judging, and I think a mod for arachnophobic can be a good solution (if they are spiders in the game), but I donāt think phobia of some should drive the developpment of the game.
Just imagine if now, every player having a phobia comes here and say āHey, I canāt play if they are ā¦ so please donāt put that in the gameā ā¦

WE ALL FLUSH THEM DOWN THE TOILET, AFTER CRUSHING THEM, MUHAHAHHAH
Weāre all evil, arenāt we? Itās a good thing they arenāt intelligent, then weād be bad people.
Roaches are lame scavengers that reproduce faster than rabbits
Spiders are vicious predators with vampiric powers and just plain do suicide and bite people
they are different, but both instances make you seem to reach for a rolled up newspaper on sight
Spiders are terrifying, but you just have to man up, itās a exoskeletonized arthropod thatās 1cm wide, just kill it. you can wash your hands if you want to.
I think people should stop saying that people should just man up. Some people really do have phobias and they canāt control them.

I donāt deny that, but you have to try, or else youāll never overcome them. Get mental help if you just canāt, for me, i think about it logicaly, and say: āyah, itās a hairy spider, but it canāt do anything to me after i kill irā
