OriginalyOrigin Posted February 29, 2020 Share Posted February 29, 2020 For a really long time I was wondering, why DS doesn't have a character of this type? Maybe because the devs tought that one-shotting hounds would be really overpowered? (and other enemies too) I know that we already have other chars. with damage modifiers: Wolfgang and Wigfrid, and other ones like Wendy and Wes with negative damage modifiers, dealing less damage than the average such as Wilson for example. My idea is if we can get (for the base game or Hamlet I don't know) a brand new character that will have very little HP but in exchange for that it will have great strength, maybe more than Wolfgang? I think it would be really interesting and challenging adding a new char. that focuses in the 'Risk vs Reward'. You will need to think twice if you want to fight certain enemies that can 2 or even 1 hit-kill you, but at the same time if you know how to kite said enemy, you just could easily destroy every boss or mob in the game. I personally think it would benefit veteran/experiencied players rather than new players. But hey, just an idea. And for the stats, well, I've been thinking about it for a while and I think these would be the stats: 50 Health 120 Hunger 120 Sanity And yes... The x2.0 Damage modifier. And well, those have been all my ideas. What do you guys think..? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Feels like they are either keeping silent and working or they just have no interest in finishing Hamlet. The problem here is that if they are NOT going to update Hamlet, they likely won't say it, which kinda just leaves everyone waiting, but the alternative is admitting it pissing some people off so... it's would probably be for the best that they just don't say anything.

I want to point out the fact that Home Sea Home came out after a long period of silence, a lot of people were disappointed by Shipwrecked and Home Sea Home seemed like an answer to peoples problems. The difference is that Shipwrecked was released as a finished product, nothing was promised that didn't make it into the final product, and regardless it wasn't fully developed by Klei, but by Capy instead. Cutting Warbucks, promising to flesh out the seasons and add more content, and so much stuff being left unfinished in the game files just points to rushed development and cancelled plans for Hamlet. Why should I play Hamlet when they clearly gave up on it? It's simply not as polished or complete as any of their other games. At the end of the day I got my copy free, I payed nothing for the game, and I appreciate that very much, but I also never asked for that, I WANT to support Klei so they continue to make great games, but they gave the game away for free and seemed to can development. I cannot even vote with my wallet, I payed for a bundle of skins in DST purely because they gave me Hamlet, but that's also kind of just showing that "Hey, we made another 20 dollars off of our much more popular product!". I cannot claim to have any knowledge of their workplace politics, but making little money off of an old product that they gave away for free, probably doesn't encourage further development over their newer product that makes a lot more money off of skins. Just gives me a neutral, disappointing feeling. I would easily shell out money for a complete product. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Machine Reaper Posted March 1, 2020 Share Posted March 1, 2020 1 minute ago, Ogrecakes said: snip I understand, I personally paid for HAM but I don't feel the product was that bad (SW was far more fun which I will agree and I have not played the Home Sea Home update yet) and I was among the first ones to complain that HAM was rushed and the devs had to divide time between making QoLs for DS and porting modern stuff over from DST and making HAM at the sametime which automatically resulted in a flawed but still working product. I was also among the first to complain a lot that why soo many things which are good for both DST and DS are not in DS yet (like gold boulder icons got included at the end of HAM development) and this pretty much is the reason why I also feel salty over that and still do to this day that DST is given more importance then DS. but it would be quite rude of me to just start saying awful stuff about Klei just because I'm not satisfied, I will pick on them for not completing the stuff they promised but I won't go as far as calling them bad because of that. Spoiler also I left the DS community for 3 years after SW got released for same reason as no updates for SW came out for at least one year and only DST was getting developed, I did tell the devs they were being unfair with DS but that's the most I did and left, after HAM was announced is when I came back again and was quite happy to know SW had been updated with even more great content then ever, now I feel the same for HAM but I'm willing to wait out for Klei and ask them once in a while just incase also @JoeW please tell us if you have something planned and should we wait for it?

JosePapp Posted March 2, 2020 Share Posted March 2, 2020 Maybe if instead of making an echo chamber of why hamlet sucks we just used these forums to discuss (like this thread intended), help each other out and move on from the edgy teen "Hamlet is a disappointment" phase at least others could blindly enjoy what has been given to them and want to be part of the Singleplayer community. There's a stark contrast between dst's overall positive and mostly friendly community and this one. (Even way back during the content drought for that game, excluding some exceptions). If more peeps talked about how they enjoy the game and this forum seemed more welcoming, maybe some dst players could leak over and Hamlet would get revenue, but if all they see is negativity and disappointment, they would (logically) not want to buy the game. And i'm not saying criticizing is wrong, it's great! how could we grow if we didn't know our faults? but the point has been made, so maybe it'd be good to move on,turn another page and stay positive! It's more fruitful to just enjoy what we're given, don'tch'all think? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wish I could live with such ignorance. I mean people said the same exact thing after Shipwrecked came out and was seemingly abandoned. Meanwhile they had already spent a long time working on something while the sky was falling here. Don't be a pessimist. The game is also about 7 years old, not getting another update may be a reality you have to accept when the time does come. Now? Later? Not sure. But it's fact the updates have to end eventually.

I went thru all this before as well, tho I personally had to wait for 2 years cause I never knew Shipwrecked got updated an year later after I left and it was a massive update to boot. I only came back after HAM got announced and found its trailer on Youtube (still haven't played the updated SW yet cause I'm too much attached to HAM right now) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
h1mk Posted April 5, 2020 Share Posted April 5, 2020 I don't care if Klei refuses to update Hamlet. There just ain't any clarification. The reason DST forums were active is because the game was in a good state. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
