501105 Posted December 4, 2012 Share Posted December 4, 2012 Well it seems to be doing very well on steam currently, so part of that might be thanks to Yogscast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Syd Posted December 4, 2012 Share Posted December 4, 2012 Well it seems to be doing very well on steam currently, so part of that might be thanks to Yogscast.Yep. I recall that it had been holding steady at around 17-18th top selling game on Steam for a while, and now it's shot up to 8th. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Redrobin Posted December 4, 2012 Share Posted December 4, 2012 I wonder how many copy's they have sold as of now... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Syd Posted December 4, 2012 Share Posted December 4, 2012 Syd where you see this ?Just scroll down on the main Steam store page and look at the Top Sellers tab. For a while, it was steady on the lower end of the "Next 10" page, but it's shot back up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cannajan Posted December 5, 2012 Share Posted December 5, 2012 Etho's LP made me aware of the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nxf7 Posted December 5, 2012 Share Posted December 5, 2012 <- Mindcrack awareness (Etho and Generikb). I watched TB's vid shortly after though and it doesn't really give the game as much credit than if he waited a few months. There was a lot less features and basic functionality (tools weren't auto-equipping when made). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rojvol Posted December 5, 2012 Share Posted December 5, 2012 Am I the only one who found it via klei web? I was just like "So what are my beloved developers developing at this time?" and I found Dont Starve. Firstly I torrented it (I know, I know) but just a day after that I bought it. I have kind of luck on Kleis games. I remember how I found Shank when it was totally unknown by some random accident Still there are veterans who played dont starve for months before me So I am not such a hipster. By the way, how are you people looking on potential thousands of new players? On one side, I would love it, because the game would get known and the Klei would got a lot of money. But on the other side (the dark side) I kind of like the small society that is here and which is breaking every day more and more. And I am - to be honest - kind of scared of times that might came.

Toaster Fu Posted December 5, 2012 Share Posted December 5, 2012 @rojvol: Hehe, the game used to have about 30 people viewing on update day verses 250 now, I think the time of a small community has passed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trainer_Zero Posted December 5, 2012 Share Posted December 5, 2012 Yeah, this will surely bolster the game's sales, as thousands from the Minecraft crowd which the Yogscast holds a great stake in will see it.However, I found this game through Etho. Then he mentioned that he got it from Generikb, and I went to watch his. Then more youtube searching found me Totalbiscuit and all the others playing it.The devs certainly deserve it, though. All this content already and we're barely halfway there? I'm loving my game, and can't wait to see what's coming next. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joy Posted December 6, 2012 Share Posted December 6, 2012 I am very happy Yogscast covered Don't Starve (they are so funny Simon and Lewis).I was introduced to the game from a youtuber named JSmithOTI. I bought the game by episode3 and so happy I did! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Little Teemo Posted December 6, 2012 Share Posted December 6, 2012 i got this game cuz it was on sale and i misread it as "Don't Shave " XD how ironic but i saw Etho's vid and it would be better if he didn't prerecord it...would be fun to c he play the game more up to dat...but he have so many let''s play so mehhh...

Marak Posted December 6, 2012 Share Posted December 6, 2012 I'm not big into the MineCraft modding scene, but on the other hand I generally enjoy the Yogscast.So whenever they do something different, it's great! On the downside, whenever they do something different it tends to go for 6 episodes and then suddenly die (see: Torchlight II), which always disappoints me.Yogscast, Y U NO BRANCH OUT FROM MINECRAFT!?

501105 Posted December 6, 2012 Share Posted December 6, 2012 It really is suprising to see how much of an influence podcasts can have. A giant one like Totalbisuit may make or break a small game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bendking Posted December 6, 2012 Share Posted December 6, 2012 Meh, I never understood why they are so successful.Anyhow, im glad they are making videos of it, now the game will become more popular, however, the popularity of it will become within 12 year olds..

A giant one like Totalbisuit may make or break a small game.Which makes it even more disappointing that most "AAA" studios consider YouTube to be a bunch of worthless fanbois and won't send them review code. Nevermind those millions of views, YouTube isn't real press coverage.Idiots. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
