kertinker Posted March 5, 2018 Share Posted March 5, 2018 With a little help from Naechan, I got a chance to try this game out. Harder than it looks (obviously) and a lot faster paced than I expected. Got twigs and grass, and a few juicy berries here and there, and started traversing the edge of the map. I probably, no definitely should have been doing more mining and chopping, but instead I tried to jog the whole way, without a log suit, or a lantern. 11 days later, I'd outrun a hound attack by leading them through a spider infested forest... at night, and I still hadn't even found a swamp. Barely half the map was traversed, and I was halfway to winter. So I guess it's really important to go with a smaller world than default, if you're gonna do it solo. So there I was, running with a torch through the night, wishing I'd just given up and made a base about oh... 6 days ago. Rain wasn't hurting my sanity, and I had a few cooked mushrooms to boost it anyway. Hounds couldn't touch me, spiders ate my dust, and then in the middle of the night, I finally saw my very first clockwork. It was a bishop. Rightfully concluding that I am so dead, I managed to screech to a halt right at the edge of its attack radius, where it wakes up, but then just... eyes you. This set piece was right against the ocean, but I carefully hugged the coast, with the bishop at the edge of my torch's light, watching me the whole way. Finally, I was past it. Then I ran into the second bishop. Playing this game alone is definitely not condusive to one's sanity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kertinker Posted March 5, 2018 Author Share Posted March 5, 2018 Technically the Crawling Horror is not hostile, until you go insane enough. Anyway, I'd love to play with you if I could! Could we get some kind of voice chat going, maybe? The programs I've got working so far in that regard are Mumble and Tox. I promised myself I'd be more social in this game, instead of grinding for hours so I can leave random gifts in strangers' chests, and I'm not sure if I can do that, if I have to stop playing to type in chat. I um... actually can't add friends on Steam. My account's "limited" until give them my credit card, and buy $5 worth of their stuff with it. You're free to do the same in reverse though!

CaptainChaotica Posted March 9, 2018 Share Posted March 9, 2018 ...I just type really fast. Sometimes not quite fast enough. : P But generally when there's an emergency (such as firehounds or the Deerclops) I shorten it down to stuff like "TO THE TRAPS!" or "FOLLOW ME!" Heh. ...Notorious Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like "Hmm, I should say something while I'm harvesting this grass, but then I'd have to pause what I'm doing. Maybe just a little bit more, then I'll tell everyone i'm harvesting grass." 6 hours later, there's no grass left on the map, and everyone's forgotten I exist. Or something like that. At least with voice I wouldn't have to pause what I'm doing to declare, "Hey I'm doing it again. Someone come hit me until I stop building all these whirly fans."
