I would love to see a vanilla expanded take on this!

it would be a dream come true

While I'd love to see it, the dev has said they dislike anything that feels Not Actually Vanilla, and I fear this falls under that umbrella

I mean out of all of those the only one that couldnt be considered vanilla is the races because magicweapons are the crypto and plasma weapons and the personas weapons aswell, magic is just more types psycasting and animals are just genetic engeniring (you also have giant space bugs a dragon wouldnt be far fetched) but then again thats just my point of view other people may disagree

That's a "magic is just science" argument and I think you have to REALLY stretch to justify it. There is no magic in vanilla Rimworld, it's a sci fi. I'd be more than happy for VE mods that add fantasy splashes to the game, but I doubt it'll happen.

Vanilla Psionics Expanded? A VE mod that expands upon the psycaster side of things, maybe with potential endgame content (a la a means of producing psylinks for non-Natural types) or sumn... maybe more psycasts.

There's literally a viking mod tho, so that statement doesn't really hold up. Fantasy is definitely more realistic, ESPECIALLY with the new DLC

Hey @jpk98 if you go onto Oskar Potocki's Patreon and look at his may 2021 road map if you look at the bottom he says "Other mods that are not yet announced are also being worked on. More information will follow. Examples Includes Vanilla Animals Expanded - Fantasy" So you kinda got what you wanted :)

well.... now with ideology and 1.3, the dev has added dryads to vanilla. i think fantasy is now within the purview of vanilla.

honestly rimworld has become a game where fantasy and scifi coexist to create a pretty horrifying reality.

i mean. when you have a group of dwarves running an elven organ harvesting operation, and they end up getting killed off by getting impregnated by facehuggers. Thats pretty much some hardcore grimdark content.

it seems the dev has embraced what the community has made this game. I got no complaints. if i could only be stuck with one game forever. this is it.

Just get the [O21] Forgotten Realms mod and the Rimworld of Magic mod, they are both great mods for this.
