Love it

No trailer? But thanks for all the hotfixes!

Currently what works for me is having the walking cane so I can outrun hounds. I use a combination of tooth traps and a pig village I created to take care of hounds (the tooth traps normally gets it done). I'm on day 200 and just made a big move to a Savannah biome with a large amount of beefalo and brought a whole bunch of things in my inventory, piggy backpack, and chester (plus some precreated structures). I did it on the day hounds are scheduled to attack (every other day in +100 days), and I planned ahead. It's about planning ahead, you need to know when they might strike. After they strike is the best time to get anything done, be it late exploring or boss killing.

I haven't gotten past world 2 yet. So after a couple attempts I've finally gotten back to world two, except this time I saved and quit on day one as fast as I can and decided to practice in sandbox mode. I've died on 3 separate attempts in sandbox mode, and only managed to collect one teleportato piece in one of the attempts. Now I understand that the conditions are not similar enough to provide an accurate prediction of my chances in my adventure w2 file, but at the same time they do provide one thing: a look into how I would fair if I didn't carry all my current items in the w2 file. It is pretty damn hard. When I did die in previous w2 attempts, I was offered an option to retry but without all the advancements from w1. Is there a way to change this to retry with them? Also I remember in the previous update I was given the option to pick a different character when transcending from w1 to w2. Why was that removed?So far I believe the only way I'll pass w2 is after practicing several attempts (probably several hours) in sandboxC with the the king of winter settings on. And I see no reward in practicing for hours for a level whose mechanics could probably fundamentally change by the time I'm accustomed to the current update. Endless winter is a great concept though, perhaps I've just been having bad luck.

If you want to back it up a bit of updates, you can look at klei past videos and make a custom sandbox best reflecting the update you want. You can take out winter. I hardly have enough time to play between school and work, but I make what time I have count. Really being months behind is more on you than klei. And it's a game in beta. Updates are part of the purchased features. If you didn't want something like that you might've purchased it on full release. I personally enjoy having so many things to do and explore in this game, even if I haven't looked into everything (I haven't even made candy yet). You are in no need of help, you just feel overwhelmed by all the features.
