Speedrun challenge: Adventure mode?


Recommended Posts

Nope, but that's pretty quick, I must admit. I didn't count my run, but it probably was around 70 days.

If I recall correctly, "feats of the world" mod has a feat for reaching the epilogue in less than 60 days. I wonder if @debugman18 actually ever did that though.

Now I am imagining to do it as "low%" speedrun: no boon item pick-ups, and no recipe learning. Play as Wilson/Wes. So, without spears, crockpots and warm clothing, I am now thinking hard to figure out how you can actually accomplish that. I understand that DS is not designed for that, but hey, let's do it. It is fun.

I am thinking hard about a strategy for adventure modes to do a low% speedrun: no spear (or better weapon), no log suit/football helmet (or better), no crockpot and no lantern/miner's hat. No good rain protection gears. Imma play as Wes. Wish me good luck.

You could just stream in real time through Steam, you know. I thought that was what you were going to do. You just click "Invite to watch" on any profile while you're in the game.

I meant Twitch. I don't mind about Steam tho. Would that make the video permanently available as in Twitch?

Not the live stream. But you could record a video and upload it somewhere.

Good luck with the Prince of the Universe (*cough* Wes *cough*)!

there are no speedruns per say but i can do it 4-5 days per world.  i think my fastest was like 4-7-4-2-5 with the worlds being cold reception, king of winter, archipelago, two worlds, darkness in that order.   during the adventure mode beta we had to post our days and tons of people were doing all the worlds in 1-3 days.  some runs never had a world over 3 days. and i used to think HOW IN THE ****!  Now i know.

Clown, wanna try a low% run? Living without armor, weaopn, crockpot, lantern and everything else would be harsh.

Guys you should definitely check out the whole thing. It is wonderful. Just finished all. Moments to be watched definitely if you really can't find time to watch the whole challenge (each moment lasts from 5-15 min):

Of course, I am only listing moments that was SO CLOSE to death. But there are more, much more spicy moments. Watch the damn whole thing.

@BluesyBuesy Does the most insane challenges. every time I consider doing one, I look at his and realise that mine pales in comparison to his and then cancel it.

You should watch him regularly, you could draw inspirations from his videos for future challenges.

Already watched all the videos he uploaded on YouTube. He agreed to do a "no crafting" challenge, and I hope those are in addition to the already present restrictions. Doing all those only with basics would be ridiculously challenging.

Thanks man! That means a lot. Please don't let me discourage you from doing challenges yourself though. They're lots of fun. Don't Starve's not quite Don't Starve if you're not on the verge of death or failure. :D

edit: @hyiltiz For the no crafting challenge, I didn't mean I'd do that combined with AM. I'm gonna do it with a world travel as the goal. But no crafting by itself will be very easy, so I'm placing additional challenges that'll make it pretty interesting I think (I'll keep those secret until the video comes out). As far as AM, I want to do a default AM speedrun just to see how little time I can get it down to.
