Lumpy Treeguard Posted June 27, 2013 Share Posted June 27, 2013 What got me to play dont starve was a youtuber named FreeStyleOMG (not me) he played a few episodes of don't starve, and quit cause he"sucked" at it, so i wanted to see more, i thought the game was cool, it had a new design to it i haven seen before... I HAD to play it, so when i was paid just enough to get, i bought it. my first experience when i started playing was...we wilson of course.. and so i first found a touch stone..not knowing what it was i avoided it (my friend told me anything could kill you) and so i went into a savanna turf, made a campfire and found the right think surrounded by dark pedals, i thought they were something rare so i picked them up, went insane and was killed my hallucinations... how was yours?

Palpetinus Posted June 27, 2013 Share Posted June 27, 2013 I started because of some streamer called Dr. Maple. I got impressed by the artwork and sound of the game, and when i found out it's a true survival game and rather cheap, i bought it.It was all far easier back in 2012, you coudl twohit spiders with spears, there were no spider warriors, pigs could kite and died rather easily.. it was a cakewalk back then.

PhelsarusBeel Posted June 27, 2013 Share Posted June 27, 2013 Total Biscuit got me into the game when he made his WTF of the early beta (when it was still Chrome exclusive) and since then i followed the game. While waiting i also watched the Let's Play of JSmithOTI (friend of the ding dong that made the video 2 posts above me). And then the glorious day came where Don't Starve came to Steam and then i bought it nealy instantly Link to comment https://forums.kleientertainment.com/forums/topic/21919-what-got-you-to-play-dont-starve/#findComment-221341 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghost_Jor Posted June 27, 2013 Share Posted June 27, 2013 I saw it on the Yogscast ages ago and thought it looked cool. Then they did it again and Sips had a play through to. It looked interesting, and it was on the Steam homepage.I wish I'd bought it when I first saw it though... That genuine ham could have been mine!

LizardBat Posted June 27, 2013 Share Posted June 27, 2013 Northernlion introduced me to the game, left it alone for awhile then saw Sips play it and it made me want to play it again for all the new updates and things to discover.

Wilbur Posted June 27, 2013 Share Posted June 27, 2013 I saw it long time ago, in the winter. Then I saw sips started to play it and it looked kinda fun, so I bought the game and I don't regret anything. It's awesome.

Mather Posted June 27, 2013 Share Posted June 27, 2013 Yogscast, Simon and Lewis' first play-through of this game. I just wanted it instantly because of how the game was designed and how challenging it appears to be. So I bought the game a few weeks later and loved it. I still love the game right now!

johnsnake71 Posted June 27, 2013 Share Posted June 27, 2013 Nice to see Sips bringing new people in ! Although he mostly turtle around his base pretty much all the time.

LazyRabbit Posted June 27, 2013 Share Posted June 27, 2013 Loooooong time ago, I saw someone played it on youtube.I liked it... but still not into it much.Then I seriously love it when I saw some fanart on Tumblr.I think it's the pic of Wilson and Chester. And I was wondering "Oh, I know this game, but what is that thing? (chester)"I went to wikia and started to love this game more and more, then fanart happened. lolBut, back to those days, I don't have the game... yet.I tried pirated version too. But I don't like it much. :/But someone on Tumblr got a copy and don't know who to share it with. So she posted on Tumblr that she will give a copy to whoever that want it.Well... so I got it.

Hopperruss Posted June 27, 2013 Share Posted June 27, 2013 Well, I started playing due to my brother's recommendation, until I realize that 3 months later, it was very good. At the beginning, I thought it was not so good, later I discovered this game is actually awesome! So I bought it and played for like 1 hour at first, then I couldn't stop playing it!
