jeneah Posted January 27, 2015 Share Posted January 27, 2015 Hi all! You've been great at opening my eyes to new styles of play (well, old to lots of you, new to me), so here goes another one. I'm no noob to DS, having clocked hundreds of hours, but for some reason I never got into sleeping. No sleeping rolls, no tents, nothing (well, maybe some tents in ROG). Maybe this is because I play as Wickerbottom a lot, but also maybe because early on we experimented and had some bad experiences with waking up starving. What am I missing?

Mobbstar Posted January 27, 2015 Share Posted January 27, 2015 In my experience, sleeping is rather uninteresting unless it's winter and you need sanity or daytime immediatly.In RoG, the siesta tent is somewhat useful, but also rather little. You can use it to fully skip days though.

GalloViking Posted January 27, 2015 Share Posted January 27, 2015 I don't sleep either (I play Wickerbottom) but I'd say that sleeping is for long and boring witner nights, or when you're in high sanity/health troubles... And you have enough food. Link to comment https://forums.kleientertainment.com/forums/topic/49825-what-am-i-missing-re-sleeping/#findComment-606625 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Catweaselcrow Posted January 27, 2015 Share Posted January 27, 2015 Best used if you are very low on either health or sanity, and don't have easy ways at hand to bump them up significantly. But totally optional if you have everything in hand to keep your health and sanity topped up, as you lose a lot of time you could have spent gathering resources.

blaaaat Posted January 27, 2015 Share Posted January 27, 2015 Sleep is time wasted and possibly resources. I personally also hate the facts the character wakes up outside the tent/siesta lean-to and that Charlie is seemingly allergic to sleeping people. I usually wait the night out by doing something else on my computer too, so only extremely rarely when sanity is bothersomely low and I'm out of melons or sanity & health are both low, I'll use sleep. May have one time slept because I could just reach the tent before darkness but not the firepit. The tent and siesta lean-to are good to make the base look more lively and bed rolls are great fuel.

jeneah Posted January 27, 2015 Author Share Posted January 27, 2015 huh! somehow I had convinced myself that "everyone" was using tents or rolls or whatever, and I was missing out! glad to hear I'm not missing out. I'll just keep the insomnia flowing!

Michi01 Posted January 28, 2015 Share Posted January 28, 2015 I only use tents/lean-tos in winter/summer when (I have enough food) to skip night/day.
