a world of walter(casual survival challange w/ prize)


Recommended Posts

so klei wants more feedback for walter and i am super bored so let's have some friendly competition! the first three people to post a video of themselves getting all* magnificent adornment gets one klei product totalling no more than 10usd of their choosing from the klei store on steam(sorry, i dont play on console).

rules are pretty simple; you must turn on winter's feast to collect the baubles, you have to record and post your full session but you can choose if you want to do it al at once or in parts(no off-screen grinding though), you can choose any setting for your world but you must play as walter for the full duration of play and finally you need to be able to accept gifts on steam if you want one of the prizes!

edit: the use of mods are fine BUT ONLY ones that do not interfere or alter gameplay. roseate hud is fine, quick-pick is not. if you aren't sure please ask before you start.

 

here is a list of each adornment;

https://dontstarve.fandom.com/wiki/Winter's_Feast#Magnificent_Adornments

possible prizes can be found here;

https://store.steampowered.com/developer/klei

*for the sake of expediency you only need one of the three klaus fight adornments, only one of the four celestial fight adornments, one of the two toadstool adornments and only one of the two crabking fight adornments. basically if a boss has more than one variant you do not need all variants to count towards your total

 

completed runs!

public execution for using the fandom wiki

also, to what extent are mods allowed? I understand no making the game too easy/convenient, but what about showing wormhole marks, showing bundling wrap, action queue, etc.

 

oh, that wasn't an issue the last time i did one of these X''D oops! but i suppose the last time i held one of these it was a nothing-world mod and didnt really benefit from that

 

to be fair to everyone the only mods allowed are ones that do not change the technical function of gameplay which is to say things like hud reskins and combined status are ok but  things like quick-pick, action queue, map-reveal and tmip are not. or more simply, it can change the way things look but not the way they function.

yeah the fandom wiki is ad-infested, not up-to-date, misinformation, etc. it's generally not for the people, but for profit. i  look things up with wiki.gg instead.

giving up action queue might be hard, but walter boss run here i go!

trust and believe, i am beholden to autostack, i would never make it through even one season without x'''D (also lowkey of the five people i was hoping would try this run you are one of them)

i'm currently swamped with my thesis for graduation, and i'm not that good at boss runs but i'll get to it definitely :encouragement::juggling:

if school is too much then you should focus on that, for sure~ an education is more important than skins x''D

I finished recording a session (1hr 10mins, 6GB-ish) and I can't find a way to upload it on Yoochube, so I might consider re-recording in 720p-30 fps instead of 1080p-60fps. The viewing experience will be torturous, and since I progress very slowly, there will be at least 20 hours' worth of clips. I will try again for 1080p-60fps dough.

I just now noticed that you allowed any world setting so I have another reason to restart, but I'll stick to vanilla generation for the fun and fairness of it. It's only right before the D-Fly fight anyway. :chunky:

is there any way to break it into smaller pieces? also, i am a twitch-watcher, i assure you i am well inundated in people actually dillydallying and wandering in circles and doing all the stuff you would expect from casual-first-timers hahaha.

hehehe, no max-tree worlds for walter? i have had two people straight up tell me it is actually too hard for early game hahahaha

You mean setting tree spawns to lots so that Walter can benefit from the sanity aura? I've found myself managing my sanity just fine with Butterfly for healing and wandering in the Evergreen forest for Green caps and Tree aura. In fact, here's a clip of me getting my ass beat by spiders (and later by a pigman). I recovered from this just fine, as long as I keep my trusty Pinetree hat on.

Also thank you for the Twitch suggestion. If Yoochube doesn't work out, I might stream on Twitch and let them hold the clips for me. I broke the footage into three 20mins 720p-30fps clips yet it didn't work. Here's my channel if that ever happens: mylittlesunshine_ - Twitch

Finally got some video uploaded, something before I finish my thesis. Little Sunshine - YouTube @gaymime

oh how exciting! both the uploads and the thesis!! *wishes you the best of luck*

Well I finished the run, took 129 days, and started uploading the first part to Youtube. And then I realized, I haven't really brought back to base any ornaments LMAO. I was just focused on killing the bosses and trying out the new skill tree. Should I do a quick extra recording running through the world retrieving them?

it isnt required but it would be super fun to see you collect them all up in a go! also, can you link to your youtube?

Update: the video is already done processing, but it's only available at 360p until the HD finishes processing on youtube's side.
Parts 2 3 and 4 are already processed in HD as they are shorter. Here's the playlist. I'll be uploading the next parts soon

EDIT: Update 2 footage from days 72->80 seems to be missing :apologetic:

crumb, is it it missing from a larger video(like a corruption) or is it a stand-alone file that just isn't with the other files?

The video file is not in my clips. When I was reviewing the clips there was one corrupt file with nothing recorded in it. But also during my playthrough there was an annoying crash that happened with a specific walter skill that loaded in before your character, so It might be completely possible that I just forgot to play the record button after one of the crashes.

I can check the vod and note down if I killed any of the bosses during those 8 days and redo them.
