RoD_GX Posted September 1, 2022 Share Posted September 1, 2022 I'm playing the most updated build of Don't Starve Nintendo Switch Edition, but unfortunately even this version seems to be behind the others, if these issues I'm about to point out are anything to go by. Invested at least 28 days taming my beefalo, along with other priorities that became a thing in order to survive, so I had to leave it licking its salt and jump on another task, but eventually I got right back into taming it, and its facial expression is now changed. It was supposed to be the fastest beefalo build... Except it isn't because it doesn't matter. Beefalo tendencies are broken in the switch version. My beefalo has the same speed as my character. What the hell Klei? It doesn't stop there. I have NEVER been able to feed twigs to my beefalo. All it eats is cut grass. When mounting the beefalo, I have to face the camera angle in order to pick things up. If I turn my back to the camera, the pickup animation is interrupted and nothing happens. When mounting the beefalo, I get the damage and there is NO ADDITIONAL damage from the beefalo, as it takes the same amount of hits to kill a spider (3-4) with or without a beefalo, even after it's been domesticated. YES, THOSE ISSUES ARE PRESENT ON THE UPDATED SWITCH VERSION OF DON'T STARVE. Finally, I know it was an ambitious move to port this DST mechanic over to single player Don't Starve. Matter of fact, this video from JANUARY 2019 highlights pretty much all of those same issues the nintendo switch version of the game still suffers from: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i61CwAM33zQ . So Klei, why is it taking OVER THREE YEARS for you to fix the beefalo taming mechanics on console -- or more specifically, on the switch? Do you just not care? I don't mean to be rude, you keep reinventing the wheel with your character updates/refreshes but we're talking THREE YEARS to fix a mechanic that you ported over and straight out broken. And we can only take that as an insult after investing some significant time into it, only to find out that you thought it was "good enough" when it's not even GOOD to begin with. And for those of you who're having a blast with DST, just ignore this thread, as it is about the single player DS. We can all see where klei's priorities lie, but this thread has a meaning to exist. And it is this: Klei, FIX this please! And if you RESPECT your console fans who play single player don't starve, don't you dare bring yet another half-baked garbage and take 3+ years to give a **** about fixing it.
