Going in blind to this but it already seems like a game I'll love. I found a shack, fixed it up and nearly destroyed it when cutting down trees. Amazing!

Well, killed the first boss while wearing nothing but the starter tunic and using a little knife.

Game easy.

A buddy jumped in my game and we headed over to the black forest for the first time.

I am not at all prepared for the swarms of baddies.
Though I got some skeletons to fight a shaman and that was a hoot.

Okay, the raven implied that I need to start digging down for new resources but when I get a couple feet down I just got water?

Also, I met a large fellow in the black woods and got him down to a sliver of health, I was feeling cheeky so I pulled out my knife for a coup de grace and he turned me in to mist.


It's so far away from camp!!!!

Does this look like it's got legs, or is it another meme game that'll die out and be forgotten soon?

The building aspect is fun and interesting, it's fairly chill and you can get more than 10 hours out of it so it's well worth the price.

I am playing mostly solo and finally got to the second boss, who was WAY far out.

I set up camp within spitting distance of the altar and did some exploring first. Got my first THE FOREST IS MOVING which wasn't as bad as I was expecting.

Finally started the boss fight and legit scared me. I wasn't prepared at all. The best weapon I had on me was a crude bow and wooden arrows. I suspect some fire arrows will do the trick next time.

Once a boss is spawned, do they ever heal or despawn? The item for this one was a pain to get.

If you pilfered the cubes but died and cant find your corpse then you could maybe not be able to make a forge.

You can find an NPC in the black forest who trades coins for items. One of these items is a belt to increase the weight limit.

I wish the biomes were in their own sections.

For me the beginning spawn is on a tiny island surrounded by meadows. SE is the mountain and black forest, NW is kind of an archipelago that is also black forest.

SW is more black forest and meadows combined.

Also, if you are plucking stuff like berries or mushrooms, they pop out and then sit on the ground.
You don't need to hit E on them again. You'll vacuum them up if you're close enough.

My map is hot hot dogshit. It's a ton of rivers and archipelagos. It's interesting but a hassle to navigate. I'm building bridges where I can but it's taking forever.

Anyone have a particular seed they like? Since i can port over my character, I'll just transplant all my stuff into something new.

Yeah, making running and jumping skills also increase your carry weight a bit would be fantastic.

Maybe only 100 total but enough to make it a nice reward.

Is the merchant constantly on the move until you find him? Could he be back in the first black forest that we don't go in anymore at random times so we miss him?

Nope. He's generated at world spawn and never moves. He can be a bit hard to see, though.

Holy poo poo the second video especially is useful.

I'm currently building on a hilly meadow because I want to many levels on purpose but this will be great for the arena.

It would be nice if they added something like bird nests you could loot feathers from. Sometimes it's really hard to find birds standing around and then arrows seem to go through some of them.

I had a bird try to land in the spot under some spikes and it died. Not controllable but it is funny.
Every time I return home at least a couple deer have killed themselves in noble sacrifice to my land.

How do you get cheats to work?

I open the console, typed "iamacheater" but nothing works and all the commands under "help" stay the same. I even tried starting the world as multiplayer but nada, is this maybe a Linux issue or am I just being dumb?

Edi: yep ima dumbo.

It's all case sensitive.

Hit F5, type "imacheater", hit enter. It should say cheats are now on.

To get wood type, "spawn Wood 10"
Wood must be capitalized. Lester scraps would be "LeatherScraps".

The range is "vaguely see his bubble in the distance", not multiple kilometers.

The tag that shows up is massive, though.

It's important to be organized

I visited a friend's place, he's a very creative guy, and was blown away with how much he's gotten done. He started after me but I did restart recently, so it makes sense.

He's at the iron age already which blows my mind but then I learned he's playing with four other people.

Now the very tiny part of me that is competitive wants to make something cooler than his place!

It has to be high enough to be the roof? I can vent my regular cooking campfires just fine, but I guess my bed is *juuust* out of reach of those. :(

I can figure out a more creative way to hide a nearby campfire.

I don't want to tell you how to design your stuff but why hide the fire when you can make it a feature?

If it's not patched, place two beams down and you can place a campfire on top of it. Frame it with some half-walls and you got a nice hearth going.

It blows my hair back and tickles my balls.

I really wish that there was a mid-latr game item that was an immobile turret that shot arrows or magic bolts or something.

The base attacks are a lot of fun but it can be a bit much solo. Even though I have a moat and loads of spikes, waves of draugers blow through them very quickly.

Just discovered that my starting island has about 100 sq feet of swamp in it for some reason.

Got to the proper swamp, died a half dozen times and barely made it out with a fuckload of iron.
Somehow got it to my boat and had to sail the opposite way around my island but discovered a great location for a harbor!
