kilobit Posted June 24, 2020 Share Posted June 24, 2020 Most likely won't even have much connection with the lore in place, but if it hits off we may see it become more prominent, I'd guess Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Well-met Posted June 24, 2020 Share Posted June 24, 2020 nope Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eskiguy Posted June 24, 2020 Share Posted June 24, 2020 Honestly i just see the game as a way to introduce people from china to don't starve, but in terms of lore, i think its basically a alternate universe. so no, I dont think its gonna have anything with the lore of DS.

They don't need a new title to get acquainted with the game. china simply has this odd habit of copying successful western IPs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CameoAppearance Posted June 24, 2020 Share Posted June 24, 2020 Klei isn't writing the story for this game, they just licensed the setting and characters and stuff, so I don't consider it canon. There might be some fun concepts in it to borrow for fanworks, but I wouldn't take anything seen only in Newhome as authentic lore or try too hard to fit it into the DS/DST timeline.

Scrimbles Posted June 24, 2020 Share Posted June 24, 2020 It's all just Wilson's weird edgy anime dream. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pelontriques Posted June 24, 2020 Share Posted June 24, 2020 there was a joke idea somewhere about this being Wilson's fanfiction. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thegreatJash Posted June 24, 2020 Share Posted June 24, 2020 Probably, if there are any references or things in common with the two. I personally think that they won't have anything in common, it just seems like the art style and game mechanics are things they will share. I have no idea, and this was a pretty strange move by Klei imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Minitte Posted June 24, 2020 Share Posted June 24, 2020 idk much about dst lore but more gameplay and my mobile only friends can play. =D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike23Ua Posted June 24, 2020 Share Posted June 24, 2020 I highly doubt they’ll make a game that has nothing to with Klei, canon to DS’s lore. Im just gonna look at new home as something that REALLY wasn’t necessary and someone just created for “Funsies” Why? Well because DS Reign of Giants and DS Shipwrecked are ALREADY on Mobile Smartphones... so it stands within great reasoning to think that DS Hamlet and DST could get mobile versions as well. With Newhome simply even existing- my dreams of DST Mobile just hit an all time low. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rhovious Aran Posted June 24, 2020 Share Posted June 24, 2020 I mean, interdimensional travel is a thing in DS I guess. So why not let this just be it's own pocket dimension that is out of reach from the constant? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr. Safety Posted June 24, 2020 Share Posted June 24, 2020 I'm gonna do what I'm guessing a lot of people are gonna do over time, which is see that it exists and then forget it exists. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swollson Posted June 24, 2020 Share Posted June 24, 2020 its not written by klei, so im not accepting anything from it as canon lore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kind of like Book of Life sugar smash where they have the characters but no plot. 10 hours ago, Ogrecakes said: It's all just Wilson's weird edgy anime dream.
