I previously just assumed it was some gigantic oval pill or something

Come on, listen to them take it. There are snorting sounds! I had a good time recording those.

This is a good one. My favorite is the total non-reaction in the last panel... no words needed.

I based this mostly on the "tall and spindly, covered in point and blades" in-game description.

Also I have to ask that if anyone here have a good png image of the lancer since there's no image on the Wiki :\

I think it's awesome. My favorite Scyther interpretation I've seen.

SteamSpy is actually underestimating a bit.

Honestly sometimes it frightens me the amount of human time that has been put into this game... the input/output ratio is insane.

I find this so charming. It's so homey and upbeat.

This is so amazing I don't want to improve the AI here...

There is! It's called RimWorld, not Rimworld.
