Just wanted to see peoples' opinion on this matter.

Hi! I return with another series of questions to see how happy the community is with what klei has been doing lately, I hope you have fun answering them and that you can share your ideas Take care!

I love don't Starve to death and i have around 900 hours between both Singleplayer and Multiplayer. However i can't say that i didn't use guides from the outside to make further progress on my game. After playing with a friend that came in blind, i realized that a decent heap of content from the game was beautifully designed so that new players could figure stuff out on their own by browsing the crafting menus and experimenting with the items and mechanics. However i am somewhat concerned that some stuff isn't really easy to infer blind and vanilla, like the entire fuelweaver questline (namely the shadow pieces, which a player could spend hours oblivious to since it would be kind of rare for a player to hang out around clockwork statues on a new moon) or beefalo taming, which requires top notch knowledge of the mechanics behind it for it to work. Thankfully, DST has an amazing and insightful community, but i think it would be nice if the game threw some bread crumbs so that players get a little pushed into what to do on those instances (sort of like the cookbook streamlined cooking and the farmhat makes the new farm mechanics a bit more clear). For the beefalo problem, a native way to analize how far you're into taming could work, and maybe a hunger widget when you're riding them. for the more cryptic stuff like the shadow pieces, i believe leaving a hint through a rhyme of some sort deep into the ruins could work. Something that hinted at the fuelweaver needing a heart and relating that to clockwork statues. What do you all think? Are there more things that you think could be streamlined without babysitting the players? (My best example of a balance between helpful yet not spoonfeeding is the cookbook).

For my final question I would like to know what items do you put in the bundling wrap? Tell me if I need to edit anything on poll. Thanks as always for participating.

Poll

I really want these skins added to Klei Rewards: Metamorphosed Flame, The Crystalline Icebox, Radiant Star Caller's Staff, Bone-Chilling Firepit, Glass Eyebrella, Crystallized Cabinet and Salt Box Shaker! NOTE: YOU CAN MAKE MULTIPLE CHOICES!

I want to know your opinion what seasonal cloth do you use often or even sometimes in specific situations. List includes clothes with freezing/overheating protection and water resistance. List excludes hand held items and armor protection, for example a football helmet that also gives 20% water resistance. If I forgot to include an item, please tell in the comments.

So it's been a while since I've posted a poll and I figured now is as good a time as any. Forgive me if this has already been covered, please link any previous polls if so. As usual feel free to discuss your choices. There are no wrong answers, but don't feel obligated to. If I left out any possible answers let me know and I will add any relevant ones as soon as possible.

This is my first poll so sorry if its messed up, just a yes or no question if you would like this as a crock pot skin.. Simply a yes or no on this as a skin, Personally I think it would be awesome, most of the other crock pots are round, but this one has the squares that is very different and could be cool. (sorry the lighting isn't great i was going insane) EDIT: heres a better image from instant-noodles

I do

In your opinions, which curios are your favorite to collect? I've heard that belongings were a popular choice on a server before, probably because you can share them with a sweeper and maybe since they're also more visible, though I'd like to hear it from you guys too!

Some of the logic gates, were redesigned a while ago. The new graphics for some of these aren't very good IMO. I refer namely to the AND/OR & NOT gates. The AND/OR gates used to be easily differentiated by their symbol, now they have no symbol, just some indistinguishable graphic. The NOT gate, has a line between the output & input, when designing a circuit, this line looks just like a wire, making it difficult to tell if there is a wire behind this or not. Here is an example, which gate have I connected incorrectly? You really have to zoom in and look closely to work out which one is wrong. It's worse if you are building tiles also. While the shape of the NOT gate is useful, the bar between inputs is very unhelpful. Please fix these awful graphics for the logic gates, they are much less easy to use.

Hello. I have questions regarding domestication and if it is easy to upkeep on late-games ( 1000+ Days). Personally I like domestication but the upkeep of beefalos is annoying for me when I spend a long time in caves, which leads to beefalos going feral. If there are some choices that aren't in the poll, text me so I can add them in.

All the new content (I think) it was for the surface: ocean, islands, new items, new mobs, new bosses, Crabby... making travel more interesting, but nothing for the caves. I already know that's the new content is focused on the ocean, but I think that caves maybe need a little update too (lunar cave, crystal lobster, lunar light crystals, geodes, clues about the ancients...). I don't know if I'm the only one who think like that. What do you want to be added to the caves?

It's a simple poll. Which do you think is harder to survive, winter or summer? Personally, I think that winter is harder to survive, because the things that you require to survive winter are much harder to acquire than those for summer. So, what do you think?

One day on the forums, I read about a new mob that supposedly hunts the player about the map. The eyelid-raising part of this new creature was that it was hard to kill, not impossible to kill. At this moment, I realized how important options are in a survival game such as Don't Starve- how the possibilities for survival tactics can hinge on whether or not a mob is kill-able.Imagine a spider queen update that featured an invincible spider queen; the update would have made migration necessary and combat less important.My question is this: should all mobs (assuming the grue doesn't count; he's pretty fair right now) that Klei adds be a viable kill target for the sake of freedom of choice?
