[QOL] List breed type next to wolf

Hello,coming at ya with a simple request to list the wolf breed next to their portrait in party organization.

Currently, when organizing a party, you get a portrait, the wolfs name, level and their synergies.


I suggest something like one of these two? Really any variation of just adding plain text of the wolf breed would be wonderful. (also adding a plain text description of the synergy pictograms would be really really nice too.)

hi, fighting for my life right now trying to figure out what I'm looking at once again, and finding myself getting annoyed with the main den page itself as well.

Here is another suggestion: having a slight expansion on wolf info in the page, or having a rollover option with wolf info. I have slapped together another mock-up image. Of course, there are things to be improved upon, but just putting some thoughts on paper.

Honestly I'm not sure what the use for having that would be, it seems like it might just clutter up the wolf tabs. Personally no support

It's so people can know what kind of wolf they're looking at, since it's not readily listed. Just looking to have some easy access info.

It's kind of annoying to flip between the den and the party organization screen.

I agree with TmstrBlmstr on this one. Each wolf of a breed has the exact same synergy, so having the image (which depicts the wolf breed), the synergy (which is unique per wolf breed) and also the wolf breed itself feels like too much of the same and will just clutter an already quite cluttered menu.

Plus I would think that if you are looking for a very specific wolf, the wolf name and image would be more telling than the breed name (I have 445 wolves, there is 6 breeds, so on average 75 of each breed. Having the breed listed in the wolf card isn't going to add any distinction between the one jocol I am looking for among the 75 in my den.)

What I can support is having search and filter options which include a filter for breeds, to make finding a specific wolf easier, so you don't have to wade through all (in my case 445) wolves. But there's different suggestions about search and filter options already floating around on the forum. For this specific suggestion - no support.


Just adding that I agree that accessibility is very important. Just that I don't think this is the solution to anything. There are better options to make things accessible, without cluttering it further.

i support it because many breeds have so little visual differences in their current artwork, that my partner and i cannot tell them apart. we are both constantly having to go to a wolfs profile to specifically see the text of the species. i know a male jocol has long legs and a short snout compared to bracchus, but a female jocol might as well be a female wolf or kit as far as we can both tell. the anatomy on jocols, kits, and wolves are just too close for differentiate.

support because accessibility is important for people with visual impairments like us.

the feature can be toggled on/off in user settings so nobody who doesn't want/need it won't have to "feel cluttered" but it can still provide the best accessibility to those who need it.

Support! It may not do much for most people but like foxbun said it would increase accessibility for people with visual impairments or people that can't tell the breeds apart for different reasons

Support! On top of accessibility, it's also useful for helping any new player to familiarize themselves with the breeds.

And also I just think it'd be aesthetically pleasing,
