Our Newest Survivor Has Arrived! Meet Wanda!


Recommended Posts

Easiest 2700 spools I ever spent. She's my new favorite character mechanic wise. Her watches are awesome lategame and I adore her personality a ton. The balance changes targeted the main issues I had with her kit.

Overall, fantastic update! Thanks, Klei : )

I don't have a teaser image today, because of reasons I can't say right now. But we're neck-deep in work to prepare for our busiest time of the year, so we've got a lot coming up for you over the next couple of months.

 

He does he's mistery

Oh, and our next character refresh is Wolfgang coming up in December. So there's that. Which is nice. I am sure nobody is going to have an opinion on that so It's probably barely worth mentioning.

Reminder that awhile ago the Klei devs said that Wolfgang's backstory is incredibly tragic. I hope they are staying true to this and I want them to not hold back. I wanna be crying over the big guy.

now is useless for solo

When Wanda haunts it, It dismantles itself and you recover the time pieces and half of the other components, you only lose a living log and a bone shard. It's still a very cheap and convenient alternative to LGA.

Overall this change was perfect.

I respect Klei's strategy of dropping what may be their most controversial refresh to date in December so they can all go on holiday before the horde comes/have time to relax after dealing with the horde

Also Wanda is probably my new favorite DLC character so far, if not one of my favorite characters. She is what other characters should strive to be. And NO PERK SOUP! It's a miracle

FINALLY, it's so nice to see a character pushing dont starve's limits by changing one of the three core stats of the game

And throwing balance of 1 benefit=1 downside philosophy out of the window! Yay. xD

Okay Klei, I love your animation style with all my heart and look up to it as a goal to achieve as an animator to be and all that, but who decided, that Wanda's hair in the menu needs exactly two frames of animation??:D Tagging the ambassador of the forum @JoeW here

I forgot to say this about the video but I am glad it isn't voiced again. I think one of the greatest strengths of your animated shorts is how they allow the viewer to fill in the unspoken dialogue on their own. As much as I liked Webbers animated short, the voice-acting kind of dampened it for me. It would have been far more impactful if it didn't have some random guy narrating all of the details to us. I really hope in future animated shorts you kind of do away with the voice acting, it doesn't really fit the games aesthetic. Can you imagine how the Warly animated short would be if some unwelcome narrator went into detail about the womans condition and all that?

I know this seems negative but it's positive I really think the unvoiced videos are a hundred times better.
