BrightNooblar Posted February 21, 2013 Share Posted February 21, 2013 (edited) If the games difficulty curve is so steep for someone, that they can never make it to day thirty, either they have zero interest in outside resources (and would never know about winter, likely), or this honestly isn't the game for them. Not trying to make the "Only make code oriented for the most veteran players" type point, mind you. Just that if you don't enjoy figuring things out, and pushing forward over a few tries, a rougelike survival isn't the type of game you're likely to get in to.That said, the bigger the game gets, more and more guides, of better and better quality, will become more and more accessible to new players. Ideally that will be enough that if people want outside help, then can follow that stuff as training wheels, at least as far as winter. The whole point of winter i believe, is to shake up the standard checklist of "Top hat to prevent insanity, crock pot to prevent starvation, tree farm to prevent darkness, set to autopilot" Edited February 21, 2013 by BrightNooblar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alvhem Posted February 21, 2013 Share Posted February 21, 2013 I only get to about day 28-32 every time I play, because I always die due to my own stupidity;Setting a treeguard on fire when he is in the middle of my base,A hell hound setting fire to may base,bees, etc.So unless I stop being stupid I may never live to see winter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Silvi Posted February 21, 2013 Share Posted February 21, 2013 When i started this game I could berely make it to day 20, now I get bored after day 70. It's just a matter of learning. If people have problems surviving till day 15 they can always just watch some vids and read a little bit on the game and try again. This isn't a insta gratification that showers you with achievements for taking 1 step in the game or holding the left mouse button while pointing a gun at things you want to go away. But once you learn the mechanics, it's pretty easy. And surviving till day 30 isn't half as hard as you may originally think, almost no real threats are around on day 30.

Oh god, that sounds hilarious, but it's true xDWell, i can just say, i showed this game to 3 of my friends, and all i explained was the meters. It went much like this: "Hunger is kinda obvious what it means, health, too, and sanity? You don't want that to deplete"That's all the advice they needed, if it wasn't already obvious enough.

Avarwen Posted February 21, 2013 Share Posted February 21, 2013 I really don't see a problem here sure you will die at first but it doesn't take long to figure out how to survive. Now when I die it's because I've done some stupid or something in a new update. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stormfront Posted February 21, 2013 Share Posted February 21, 2013 *lol* at the rate I'm going I will never see winter I was up to surviving to day 40-45 but progress and insanity messed me up and i am back down to 14-16 days (I blame the effigy nerf and less predictable maps) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
