Maxwell_Gaming Posted June 1, 2025 Share Posted June 1, 2025 Mechanically I think he works fine but I hate that he's human, it really clashes with the aesthetic / vibe of Don't Starve. I think better approach would be to make him a pig from Hamlet or a similarly civilized pig. 4 Link to comment https://forums.kleientertainment.com/forums/topic/166085-not-a-fan-of-a-human-wandering-trader/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

I actually quite like Wagstaff because he feels more natural given the lore and surrounding quest. The trader is just some guy lol. 1 Link to comment https://forums.kleientertainment.com/forums/topic/166085-not-a-fan-of-a-human-wandering-trader/#findComment-1819159 Share on other sites More sharing options...
YouKnowWho142 Posted June 1, 2025 Share Posted June 1, 2025 I don’t really know what to tell you, the wandering trader has been in the game and the constant for almost a decade, the only difference is that now he shows up in gameplay (outside of events) 16 1 Link to comment https://forums.kleientertainment.com/forums/topic/166085-not-a-fan-of-a-human-wandering-trader/#findComment-1819160 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Evelo Posted June 2, 2025 Share Posted June 2, 2025 My issue with the trader is what he does, he's been a character for a long long long time.

Mike23Ua Posted June 2, 2025 Share Posted June 2, 2025 Consider this: Depending on WHEN you first started playing DST, Inn Keep Trader has been in the game longer than you’ve been playing the game! 1 Link to comment https://forums.kleientertainment.com/forums/topic/166085-not-a-fan-of-a-human-wandering-trader/#findComment-1819189 Share on other sites More sharing options...

xhyom Posted June 2, 2025 Share Posted June 2, 2025 I think the only thing I really look at and think doesn't fit at all and is very conflicting with the game's aesthetic is the monkey island. But other than that? A random weird guy dressed as a beefalo trading items in the middle of nowhere? I don't think there's anything more don't starve than that, almost everything up until then is weird guys and random stuff. If it follows the aesthetic standard a little bit, anything goes, probably. 1 Link to comment https://forums.kleientertainment.com/forums/topic/166085-not-a-fan-of-a-human-wandering-trader/#findComment-1819264 Share on other sites More sharing options...
FillerText Posted June 2, 2025 Share Posted June 2, 2025 It's DST. it's kind of the expectation to meet another guy.

xhyom Posted June 2, 2025 Share Posted June 2, 2025 30 minutes ago, landromat said: Monkeys literally came from other dimension I'm clearly talking about aesthetics. They could be from another dimension and have a completely different appearance, while conveying this idea in the same way and not being so conflicting with the rest of Together's sea "theme", which is probably the darkest, in color, of all the seas in this universe. It could work in Shipwrecked, which is all colorful, but here? For me it kinda looks like an out of place collab, which is something Klei doesn't do with actual collabs, since all the collabs are so well implemented that sometimes I even forget that there is no Eye of Cthulu in the universe or that poker is not a Constant activity.

Honestly this one feels extremely out of place like you are just wandering and random slot machine is just sitting in the middle of nowhere.
