it isnt all about the Gnaw anyway.

Looking at the design, looks less like a beast and more like a elaborate version of a wormhole... Kind of like El Dorado's Xibalba^{(not ron perlman senpai)}.

I assume The Gnaw is that big jaw on The profile portrait, and we have to throw The food into it, or it'll do something very not nice to The team, like eating The Cooks (us) instead of offered food.

Like make people sick (with the plague that killed most of the native goats) or just straight up eat them.

So everyone… Do you think Gnaw would have some kind of boss?

Or would it be just a "cook as fast as you can and prey that beast won't eat you" kind of win?

from what i think you put food on something and the gnaw comes from the sky or something and eats it? pretty sure the story must be more interesting than just give food

The silencefrom devs  and different locations is pretty telling that Klei is doing more for this. Forge seemed kind of small in comparison but it looks like there's more locations in this event.

I'm guessing that the Gnaw is just going to sit in front of its altar and demand food, given the Altar of Gnaw profile background:

They seem to be glyphs on all the alters. Not exactly sure myself.

And the pig letters in the Hamlet ruins.

I really hope it’s not just another boss fight. I’d like some new environments to explore with new threats and resources, not just a boring arena, and challenges that test more than combat skills. I wouldn’t mind tasks like “You need to kill X animal so that you can cook X dish with its meat” or stuff along those lines, but something that requires more ingenuity than a boss fight.

I'm hoping each survivor maybe has a different culinary specialty, sort of like how in The Forge they each had different passives.

I checked those two places, and it looks like those ones and the ones on the Gnaw's altar are two different sets of runes. Strangely enough, the Hamlet and Metheus runes seem to be of the same set.

Here's a picture of that promotional screenshot and a reference sheet of Metheus runes I found on an old thread for reference:

[Catteflyterpill]

I think the goat creatures are an interesting addition to the game, since goats are often used for satanic symbolism. Maybe a foreshadowing or reference to sacrifice? Whether that be the food or players, I wouldn't know. But I'm curious to see what their role is in the game.

Nah, man, you're trying to hard to connect unrelated things.

This is a generic spiral.

This is a dragonfruit.

This is a snout.

This is a crescent moon.

This is fire.

This is either a hoof or a hat.
 

[SpikeGuy]

Maybe they just have similar art styles. Oh well, we'll have to wait and see.

On topic, not sure if I have missed anything, but are there any details or hints as to what "The Gnaw" is going to be about or may involve?

[NorthicaN]

E3 is gonna be soon. Heard klei gonna be there too so we gonna see something new about hamlet dlc and little climps of the dst event

[hhh2]

i can hardly wait!

[FluffyDoomMonster]

Whenever I hear gnaw, all I can think of is bones. Like a hungry wolf (probably merms in this case though) gnawing on bones.

I wonder if we gotta feed it merpeople...
