Mike23Ua Posted July 4, 2022 Share Posted July 4, 2022 I wanted to show my thanks and appreciation to the developers at Klei the people behind the scenes creating the amazing game known as Dont Starve Together, these guys don’t get enough credit for all the hard work they put into each update they pump out and this latest one is no exception- my first impressions of Curse of Moon Quay was that the island was too small and that pirate raids only happen in such a small radius of the island that it still leaves normal boating content feeling bare with no action.. and while those things may still be true- Klei still managed to knock a HUGE amount of things off my personal wishlist in one update. 1: I hate boat bridges I despise how hideously ugly they make my worlds look when people use them, and now there are Grass Boats which decay on their own allowing me to place a Boat bridge to cross a gap then forget about it and leaving it to decay. 2- I probably hate sea stacks more then I hate boat bridges and the new Kelp & Shell Bumpers help me to dispose of those more easily. 3- Lots of people wanted Wilbur as a playable character, we got Wonkey who in my opinion is better than Wilbur (I just like it’s art style) and you can be Wonkey anytime you want if you Murder some pirates. 4- PIRATE Themed content, weapons, Canons, clothing and skins.. I have been pestering Klei ever since I came to the forums for this type of stuff & now that it’s finally here I can shut up begging for it. 5- Boat dock tiles.. I do not need to say much more. 6- And this one’s a big one: PALM TREES IN THE OASIS!! (I can finally die happy now) shipwrecked color sand is a nice bonus. So a quick recap- Auto Decaying Boat bridge, Battering Ram, Playable Monkey character, Pirate skins, enemies, weaponry & clothing, Tiles of land we can place on Water, and PALM TREES and Sandy Turf. From the bottom of my heart, I sincerely thank everyone at Klei who worked on getting all these things I had been asking for for ages into one update.

No- we got an island where you can go chop down the palm trees and plant them at the Oasis yourself. Same thing though.. more effort involved.

LiamAshvinn001 Posted July 4, 2022 Share Posted July 4, 2022 I also just want to say that Klei was super nice to give away 4 skins as a daily login! I'm still pretty new to DST so IDK if they did that much before but it was still really nice of them and they look awesome. The Curse of the Moon Quay update was awesome and I love the new base options, and with the Wicker rework (kinda) teased I can't wait for the future of DST!

Mike23Ua Posted July 5, 2022 Author Share Posted July 5, 2022 I forgot another very important tool on my list, 7- the Rudder! I had no idea how badly I actually needed this thing in this game.. and for those of you who have STILL yet to catch on here is a Clip: IMG_4878.MOV Still can’t figure it out? Instead of barely missing a freaking spot to drop your pinch winch so you have to paddle your boat back around until the winch is over it, you can now just instead rotate the boat itself so the winch now properly lines up with the area your wanting to drop it within.

Evelo Posted July 5, 2022 Share Posted July 5, 2022 I agree, thank you so so so so so so much for everything Klei. I absolutely adore Don't Starve, if I never discovered that game I would likely never have played Oxygen Not Included which is by far my favorite game of all time. Don't Starve Together is a game I always keep coming back to just because of the lovely art style and the (seemingly) simplicity of the game. You've managed to make very memorable characters and keep on expanding on the lore of the game even after all these years and it is so wonderful. The new pirate skins are amazing (Love Wigfrid, Warly and Wurt such a spectacular job) and finally the music! The music in the new update is both fun, light-hearted but also strikes fear into my soul every time I hear it out in the open sea. Thank you Klei!

That's actually a really good point. I never thought about that. One thing I'll say though, consider putting the rudder in the center of the boat so that it will stay in place and you won't have to chase the darn thing. I wish there were on-screen prompts to the rudder so that in general you won't have to chase it.

This might be a dumb question but- how did you get cave light bulbs on the surface? I’ve never tried to move those to the surface & have always just went down to a cave to gather some from their natural spawn locations to refuel my lanterns lol Also after seeing this image I hope Klei updates the dock tiles so that fish/water mobs/birds can go under them!! I’d like to see fish/birds that float down stream under a dock bridge Link to comment https://forums.kleientertainment.com/forums/topic/141454-a-thank-you-letter-to-klei-2022-edition/#findComment-1582490 Share on other sites More sharing options...
