As we've cleared some of our started xenotype mods already (sanguophage, wasters, androids), it's time we look towards the future.

Myself and Sarg are interested in knowing which xenotype mods you're most excited about (so that we can prioritize them).

Make sure to vote on the one you want to see us develop next. You have a week to decide!

Highmate is a neat choice because of the whole aspect of the xenotype already being a part of the base game. That being said: I'm always more excited to see new xenotypes personally. Lycanthrope is my personal pick to have my Gothic horror dynamic in Rimworld, but the Insectors look really sick and my interest is piqued on those. Overall, these are all exciting choices.

I love the insectoid idea of having different castes under the same xenotype so you can have your workers, warriors, and so on. Really hope you guys get to work on that one!

ArcaneJellyfish

Insectoid race would be amazing. Extremely excited to see how you interpret that feature

You all have been knocking it out of the park with these. While I’m only picking off the name at this point since I don’t know what to expect, all of them look like they will be awesome.

Highmate could be awesome, like I said when biotech came out, I think the vanilla "psychic bonding" could absolutely be expanded on to great affect

Ian Napier

While Lycanthrope seems very interesting I am just too curious what Highmates will get. Plus given that every time I've gotten a Highmate they have been incapable of social I want to see more from them

ZamazaCallista

I think Highmate, though I like all three. My logic is they're already in game but very lackluster so I think they should go first. Edit: Would also be cool to maybe have a tie in to Pyscasts expanded. Highmate only tree?

Rossum

Highmates are one of the distinctly Rimworld races with their own lore and in-game mechanics, it's just a shame how lackluster they are in-game and I'd like to see them improved on. Maybe something like making Highmates good at cooking (or at least they never cook meals with food poisoning) since "The best way to a man's heart is through his stomach" and all that.

Highmates could have a 100% inheritable gene it would have double or triple the cost of the normal gene and not offer any benefits to the carrier, but would always pass the gene down. E.g. inheritable super-immunity or a weapon aptitude.

Patrick Laubscher

Highmate could me very interesting first, there aren't very present in the game. The use of charisma or pheronoms could get them special abilities as making someone killing for them because of their charm or making someone just impossible to harm her/him because well she/he is so charming/beautiful/sympathic

Definitely non-biased vote on Insector >.> Highmate is a close second, any fleshing out you can do on base game stuff is always welcome!

Brian Lang

you don't need to post a poll for this we're all a bunch of degenerates and you know it

Mx Prbms

Chose highmates, as people above say - they are in the game already and they are a bit underwhelming atm. Speaking about suggestions: could be cool to see an anti-highmate type, less submissive, more rebellious, ones that have broken their program

Red Lizard

how are these the same people that were annoyed by highmate catgirls?

Iapetus

The choice between furry, closeted furry, or bug people.

The catgirl waifus win apparently lol
