>>42132026Better question is why does a species that reproduces with eggs die from child birth? And how is that a species that can give birth to MULTIPLE babies because of egg breeding able to give each of them a skull?
The answer is that they didn't think of these mechanics when they made the original game which was just supposed to be a little story about collecting monsters where each town was a set piece and not some logical world. At this point, it's no longer their mother's skull, it's a calcium helmet they're born with.
