I Played 100 Days of Don't Starve: Reign of Giants

the Giants may be Sovereign but the game is still called Don't Starve don't get slapped by a big sloppy fella don't succumb to the darkness don't lose your mind don't freeze don't burn don't slip in the rain because if you break your back I'm afraid there's no workers compensation in this nightmarish land that's right friends I played 100 days of Don't Starve Reign of Giants first Up character selection Wicca buttocks robot or wikibot robot or wickerbot robot or wickerbot it was a tough choice but I went with a librarian despite being unable to sleep she apparently knows many things so that sounded impressive to me I had a quick look at the books she can craft and I got on the Move okay so I've played the base game of this this is Reign of Giants it has two extra Seasons extra enemies I collected Twigs of grass and any food I spied and began my journey with a dream to Stave off hunger while maintaining my health and Sanity I stumbled upon this Wormhole so I headed through this is was not in the base game oh a cat oh I'm wet my wetness is increasing that was not in the base game either what does that mean if I'm weird I found a sealed mine entrance this glorious Maxwell statue featuring a Mech horsey and I kept on the Move looking to unveil the map as quick as possible as I collected flint rocks and gold oh what are you oh get him the mole rat eluded me and I didn't want to waste too much time chasing the cheeky fella so I carried on whipping out a torches true Darkness fell on the land and I got a little cold bro is it actually that cold why is it so cold I don't have any wood but I want to die of cold on the first night this didn't happen in in the base game as you can tell I was a big fan of complaining about stuff that wasn't in the base game fortunately it wasn't quite a deadly cold so I made it through the night and began day two collecting some wood and charcoal yeah what are we doing what are we doing I don't remember how to play this game too stressful what do I need for the science machine one more log literally nothing had happened yet and I was already stressed apparently good signs good signs I whacked down a science machine and made myself a backpack and I noticed some new crafting recipes like the insulated pack and bucket of poop what I made a shovel and a hammer I used the hammer to break down the science machine and I continued on my way I stumbled upon some pigment angrily defending their Berry crop and I got hopelessly wet and eventually just a bit chilly I was hungry too so I whacked down a campfire on which I cooked up a bunch of berries and carrots and so the Blessed fire at into both my Frosty toes and my growling stomach I struck out north along this path come on all that cardio surely you're not freezing anymore I have no idea why I didn't build a fire to warm up and dry off but who can decipher the mind of a goose on the loose I did eventually burn down some trees for warmth though let's steal some Pig's houses apologies to the pigs this is one of the key things I'd been looking for overnight a target for my urge to demolish breaking down Peak houses yields planks cut stone and a pigskin all immensely useful materials rampant pigment homelessness rates is a small price to pay for such a bounty I admired this cat for a bit what's it doing it's all right I tracked down some more gold and plunk down an Alchemy machine and looked into clothing options that might protect me from the rain I couldn't craft any for now so I made a football helmet and log suit which are at least strong defensively I broke down the Alchemy Station and headed north to see what I could find oh crap I don't have enough for another light I'm actually dead I managed to make it back to some trees so I burned those to keep the light up until dawn so I didn't die but it's safe to say I wasn't having the strongest start I was Bamboozled by the rain because I was too blind to notice I could craft an umbrella so it's raining I'd also barely collected any grass and twigs which are the most fundamental materials for exploration as they can be used to craft torches and I was kind of hungry with literally zero food in my bags I foraged a few berries and carrots cooked them and filled my belly before brushing up on my combat skills by slapping some pigs with my spear ah why are so many of you the go-to fighting strategy in this game is coyote moving away to dodge their attacks and ducking back in to get some hits in while the enemy is recovering I can't say I performed well in this particular melee but my armor kept me healthy and I managed to kill two pigs collecting two Meats I stumbled upon this little farm area so I decided to set up a base down went the Alchemy machine a crock pot and I planted some seeds in these Farm plots I collected a bunch of materials from the surrounding area placed a Garland of flowers on my head for some sanity gain and placed down a fire too I tried making a crock pot meal out of three berries and a twig and I said I don't know what to do man I don't know what to do which was accurate because the meal produced was wet goop wet goop what I can't cook when it's wet this made me incorrectly assume I couldn't cook meals in the crock pot during the rain so I cooked all the food I had on the fire to keep my Hunger at Bay for now I think I just heard the hounds the hounds are coming my sanity is so low dude the Giant's downward arrow on my sanity is thanks to my extreme wetness and the dark of night teaming up to make me lose my mind that actually sounds like a historically accurate description of when I used to wet the bed before I finally grew out of that last year much to my wife's relief you know what else is historically accurate the World War II battles in Enlisted the sponsor for today's video enlisted is a free multiplayer shooter featuring large-scale combat with dozens of soldiers light Vehicles armored vehicles

only sanity restoring strategy I knew of the Garland plus parasol combo so I feel pretty while picking flowers I forged some spiders and collected some monster meat plus my first silk I spied another of these areas with the Mech chess pieces and I found this bone graveyard kind of biome what is this biome Tumbleweed there are a bunch of hungry looking hounds too so I decided to steer clear I ran back to my base through the night and when I got there I cooked meatballs using monster Meat and three berries I harvested my crops cooked an eggplant on the fire and is day seven dawned I finally felt like my food situation was somewhat under control I spent the day collecting I placed down my first chest and as the rain returned I was pleased that it finally remembered parasols were a thing because it was of course helping protect me from the rain can hear the sound of the pitter-pattering I headed out exploring finding myself in this Savannah where I ended up in an epic battle with a few spiders oh there's so many spiders as Darkness fella gave up on the fight and continued exploring the Savannah but I of course had to hold my torch so the parasol was no longer keeping me dry which was problematic am I gonna die of wetness I kept burning random Tufts of grass to keep warm but my sanity was being absolutely shredded and my flowery parasol decayed into right and I lacked the flowers to make another so I couldn't even Shield myself from the rain once the sun rose but I found what I needed a spider's Nest I took some eight-legged weirdos out stole their silk and finally made myself an umbrella okay and then the rain ends as soon as I make my umbrella I spent the day picking flowers slowly restoring sanity five points per pedal plucked and I relaxed by a fire to dry out and when I found this glorious headless statue and its random Bounty of flowers I was grateful but I had to admit it's the only way I know how to deal with sanity is pick flowers I just don't think it's the play flower picking is definitely not a sustainable strategy for sanity management so I needed to find a better solution oh there's some free gears I oh he clocked me from like five miles away she can't sleep so I can't deal with sanity that way what's another good way to deal with sanity fashionable clothes so far more spiders try and make a nice fashion melon you know a wall plant oh they might they might get me some freebies yeah yeah yeah no don't eat the spider meat I want it what is that wet web is a skull what the heck wet Weber's skull what does that mean I still have no idea what that is feel free to enlighten me in the comments should I get on some fights with bees is that a dumb idea it was in fact a glorious idea except maybe not in the pouring rain no honey I got the bundling rapid blueprint already I destroyed the hive and claimed some beeswax and honey I continued cooking up meals and I wandered off to collect flowers and fight some spiders oh crap I forgot about what about those ones that jump are you terrifying they broke my helmet so I made a fresh one and took them on collecting a bunch of monster meat with which to execute my default food strategy infinite meatballs I attempted to fight an army of pigs again on day 10 but I soon realized this was a bad idea and instead headed off to explore I collected as I went and I destroyed another Pig's digs and in the morning hounds actually I exaggerate just Hound I whacked it on the nose I continued cooking meatballs and honey nuggets cut with filler-like berries and mushrooms and I decided I wanted to try and get some jerky happening as I knew the dried meats are a decent source of sanity and so I wanted to trap some rabbits collapse Rabbit Hole should I dig it so the rabbit plan wasn't gonna work because apparently their holes collapse in Spring what about those frog ponds the Frog was good I saw one frog pond and so I went in search of some Froggies that's the pig King hello maxentius they've got names they've got ridiculous names but they've got names trebonius trubonianus I stole their grass and then did something which I'm pretty sure is illegal I just murdered the cutest thing in the game what have I done they gave me meat though I found a frog pond and whacked down a trap and this Pond was right near a bunch of piggies including the pig King so this seemed like a great spot for a new base I began exploring the area keeping to the edge of the map for now I found another flowery headless angel statue as I collected my way around this birchy biome what the hell is this wet glomer's statue what does that do I tried to whack the statue with my hammer but I had no luck so I was bewildered things were looking up though as I'd managed to bring my sanity up above 150 with some diligent flower picking and Garland plus parasol Shenanigans and I found a touchstone which will give me one free respawn should I die these gruesome pig heads on sticks also yield some juicy pig skins by evening I'd explored the biome and replenished to my stock of materials I placed down a drying rack and strung up the meat to dry into jerky and I placed down a crock pot too except that I had no more meat so I decided to remedy that can I farm these every night maybe I can Farm These every night because if I don't if I don't dig up the burrow right um so if I do this yeah I think I think another one will come out so that was another replenishing meat sauce just nearby I placed a fire pit in two more drying racks and in the morning I caught my first frog and earned some delicious frog legs and then our most glorious fine all right all right things are looking up I I feel like I had such a dicey start and I was just stressing where's your friends before I got into an epic battle with two of the big hoofers and they sure do drop a lot of meat and wool so I was pleased all right all right things are looking up things are looking up after the various finds I've made I returned to my original base and availed myself of its resources including collecting my first jerky from this drying rack I'd set up earlier and after stuffing my bags I headed back to the new base which I decided would be my true base of operations on the way I took out some spiders because monster meat and silk are always handy to have and I chopped cooked and made myself a fishing rod but my nighttime fishing session was interrupted by the spindly hands go away you silly musical noodles I made a couple more drying racks and strung up the fish I'd caught before fishing some more and collecting some frogs too all right can I do such a waste but whatever I think fish sticks are a thing I headed back to the first base to make use of the Alchemy machine where I made a handbat a most excellent weapon for meaty slaps and I broke it down the machine and when I returned I found fish sticks had indeed materialized in the crock pot and I've got 104 health now I've got 144 okay fish stick so it's awesome for food I spent the night cooking up a storm and getting my inventory sorted and in the morning I fought off a few hounds with the help of this pig man I lured a couple of beef Flow Away From The Herd and claimed their meaty spoils before returning to a rather outrageous number of amphibious friends oh frogs where this where this frog come from it's frogs everywhere what the hell where'd all these frogs come from I concluded they must spawn like crazy during storms so I whacked down a second strap and lured them to their Doom over and over so frog Bounty some lightning burned down one of my drying racks which was rude but nothing could contain my joy at the plague of frogs this frog nonsense is beautiful let's go back to sleep by the time morning came I had a whopping 19 frog legs I dried off and ate some jerky to restore a little sanity I strung up a bunch more meat to jerkify and I chopped some trees and made a second chest but as you can see my sanity situation was still dicey and so I once again resorted to picking flowers to try and keep my mind intact I returned to the old base and claimed some jerky which restored a solid 15 sanity Riders lightning struck the bushes right next to me and so I struck out in search of gold because I needed to make some lightning rods so I could put an end to all these errant lightning strikes on the way I took out this head-butting horse and claimed a couple of gears and I discovered some ice up here so I figured I might as well collect it and I of course collected that gold it's one of these eyeball idiots should I fight the eyeball idiot I did indeed fight the lanky eyeball and for all her outrageous dancing about I took her out pretty easily and her legs shot Skyward in death I also stole her egg I killed another nearby tall bird explored the biome a little more while collecting goodies and then headed home testing out this wormhole on the way it took me slightly closer to where I was headed so that was mildly convenient good job toothy butthole once back I placed down a lightning rod I dried off and collected flowers but I made sure to leave some flowers around because they attract butterflies and bees but I was still rather lost for sanity Solutions so I must admit I had a cheeky Google because between my fashion efforts flower picking jerky and crockpot food I was out of ideas my investigations revealed green mushroom caps cooked over a fire are a decent sanity source and these seemed fairly plentiful in the Birch biome so this was great news I placed down a lightning rod at this base and in the morning me and my pig friend bashed up some hounds and a bunch of rambunctious frogs got amongst The Fray too some jerkyo was ready so I collected and placed some new meat on to dry and then I had a whinge about the rain I sucked so much at coping with the flame and Rain saying not that big a deal but then suddenly you're under attack where you need it you desperately need to collect something and then you just get saturated I chopped some trees made some planks and finally got an Alchemy machine down at this second base and I immediately used it along with one of those gears I stole from the mech horse to make a fridge the green mushies poke up their sanity restoring heads during this Twilight part of the day cycle so I grabbed a few of those to toast over the fire on 149 now I'm on 164 but I lost I'm on 105 I think I lost some health lose one health for 15 Saturday okay okay we're on to something now I was pleased to make use of the ice box too as this slows spoilage rates greatly but tell me did you notice anything different on day 21 what about day 22 can you see that rather aggressive orange Hue invading the land oh okay it's summer it's making toasty noises sizzling noises can make a straw hat why haven't not been wearing straw hats this whole time it says helps you stay cool and dry so it would have helped me stay dry for goodness sake the straw hat wasn't enough though as I soon began to suffer a loss of Health due to the overwhelming heat and beyond that I had never experienced the summer before so I had no idea what to do to keep cool this is the only thing I can think of to do bro how do you stay cool I'm wearing a straw hat well what do you want from me I mean there's ice do I just eat ice if I'd taken some time to look through the crafting options there are of course multiple ways to combat the heat but I'd been too busy dealing with the travails of spring that I hadn't thought about the onset of Summer entering the cave stopped the damage and eventually cooled me down too so at least I had that going for me I explored the caves a little and once night fella emerged to hoping to track down some spiders silk all right let's go fight some well it's hot how is it still hot and it's it's evening honestly how dare it be hot in the evening I took on some spiders but true dark fell before I was able to snag myself some silk and even though the spider's engaged in Epic Warfare with an eyeball plant I was unable to yank myself any spoils and so my quest for the silk had failed and when I returned to Camp I was chased by these idiots I don't know how to deal with this no ah eat this they gave him no Health wear the hat weren't towards the resurrection thingy so that is an anti-climactic death I picked up all my stuff and I managed to hang up some more meat to dry before the heat came on strong and I headed to hide in the caves but even in the caves I was still taking damage I thought it'd be cool down here it was cooler down here yesterday wasn't it am I supposed to maybe I can sit in the shade of a tree in the shade of the tree oh it said a welcome respite okay the shade of a tree by that logic I worked out that an umbrella or parasol would be beneficial too in retrospect a lot of that should have been obvious it's like what do we do when we're hot okay I'm getting hot again respite I collected some grass and noticed some was actually dying due to the Heat and I found that relatable I continued using the only weapon I had against the Heat shade and I scrounged around for whatever I could to keep my health up but it seemed to be getting hotter day by day so on day 25 I was forced into the caves where I basically just stood in the shade of pine trees before emerging at night lean to escape the heat to restore sanity oh okay I can make that I think luxury fan and I almost let myself die to some stupid bats oh bro I'm so low I didn't realize I was taking so much damage I collected some jerky and continued to cling on to life and I managed to make a siesta lean too but I'd forgotten an important fact uh this idiot that's right she doesn't sleep so this character cannot use the lean to yet another failed attempt at escaping the heat it was back into the caves on Day 26 but it wasn't looking good I've got shade from a tree I've got my parasol I got my hat please please I'm dead uh I spent all the spring trying to figure out how to deal with blaming being wet I just didn't know what was coming ah well I unlocked someone excels in battle absorbs the power of Fallen foes only eats meat that was enough for me so you know went for attempts number two with wigfred the performance artist honestly that first playthrough as the librarian was a bit disappointing but I'd now reacquainted myself with the game I gotten a decent handle on what to expect from spring and summer and I had myself a character supposedly possessed of great combat prowess so I was feeling much better about this second attempt right start with four meat oh hold on hold on hold on melted mini Glacier and the rabbits are here it's not spring It's Autumn this Manta had three whole Seasons to prepare for another go at summer so that felt manageable start with a battle Spear and a battle Helm that's kind of makes these yeah I can craft them as well oh they cost gold though right if those cost gold then I want to find a pig King I did the usual collecting up a storm including a bounty of gold and as I explored I kept mostly to the edge of the map hoping to uncover the entirety of it and get a feel for where all the key landmarks were cooked two of my meat on a fire early on day two and carried on whacking down a science machine to prototype a hammer so I could demolish some pig houses burning down some trees for charcoal making an Alchemy machine and destroying the science one and employing a little trick to save bag space so what I think I'm gonna do is I'm gonna make a crock pot right if I don't if I don't place it I didn't place it now I can put it down wherever I want I did likewise for a fire pit and got back on the move I cooked and ate my remaining two meat and I was alarmed when some rain came but it was a comparably light fall nothing like them spring rains nonetheless I began collecting flowers towards a parasol I whacked a frog and claimed its legs I whacked a mechano horsey too and I found the pig King so I figured I may as well murder some of his loyal subjects for their meat weakford actually gains 5 sanity and five health for every kill and she has a damage buff and a damage resistance buff so I was loving it in fact this character felt overpowered I came away with six meat for my troubles I placed down my crock pot and it wasn't exactly a strategic placement but I was hungry so what are you gonna do and I made a bunch of Meatballs I had a fair bit of berry and carrot filler so I was able to make five before getting on the move once more I demolished some more Peak houses growing my stacks of cut stone and planks to 10 apiece and my stack of pink skins to 16. and I bumbled into this desert biome oh what the heck pick cactus ow pick tumbleweed there's a rabbit in there what the heck there was another chessboardy type area up here so I killed the horse but fled these zappy nerds before getting in a battle with the big charging chonker well he destroyed a tree what a beast he's knocking over so many trees I'll come back for that I think it's better off that I explore for now I hammered some bones and collected bone fragments and a houndstooth and before long I'd uncovered this much of the map the morning of day five saw me collecting more gold in this Mosaic biome and I headed through this Wormhole and popped out further east where I found my first spider nest which I destroyed while cooking some more meatballs I destroyed a couple more nests as I explored this Pine Forest as silk is very handy for plenty of crafting recipes and By Night I'd done a loop of the entire edge of the forest so I moved into another desert biome this one had lots of angry doggies I killed a few and my helmet broke so I made myself a new one is this thing like summon hounds if you attack it I think it does it is indeed a Hound spawner they didn't have those in the base game I activated the Touchstone and claimed some free pig skins and as I wandered the desert I couldn't help but think holy moly that's a lot of gold and that's a lot of dogs there's so many of them though I don't really want to fight a billion pounds right now though building up a decent stack of monster meat these kills capture my health Insanity topped up so it was smooth sailing compared to the sanity Troubles of my first attempt oh hello hello some of you guys just in the wild there was yet another chessboard area so another horse suffered my wrath yeah we've explored a lot of the map what is this what is this I waited until morning and whatever these may be ultimately they are delicious a whopping three meat I was certainly finding a great many food sources in my travels I wandered through a bee biome a rocky biome a birchy biome and a little Savannah and I began to think about where to build my base your frog pond is a good idea for spring because a million frogs appear when it's pouring so I think it's so many rabbits and beeflo is probably the go for autumn and winter and then in Spring maybe I can move I had a quick look through this Wormhole and discovered this swamp down south before setting up a base in this little Savannah with some traps down to catch rabbits I collected nearby including burning down some trees for charcoal I placed a bird trap down to begin collecting some feathers and as day 9 dawned I placed the lightning rod and a fridge I made an umbrella and a fishing rod just to learn the recipe so I would be able to craft them while on the go if necessary and with the base now established I headed back out with a decent stock of food and a fresh hambat for slapping my enemies to the South I found a much larger Savannah featuring some Beefalo and Angry Pigs valiantly defending this giant patch of grass I kill them all oh what is this what the hell oh what the hell ah okay I found a fire rod and I took the opportunity to collect a stack of 40 Ash I killed some spiders and a couple of Beefalo and it's fair to say this lady's combat specialty was making things fairly simple for me as you can see my sanity remains maxed out just because I kept slapping idiots until they died and suddenly I had a stack of 16 meat and 10 wool I headed into the swamp and killed a bunch of tentacles as I wanted to collect some tentacle spots I found another Touchstone covered plenty of territory and collected a bunch of reeds while I was at it oh green mush tree I'm all the way back up here I finally found my second tentacle spot at the edge of the swamp so I immediately headed west to explore another bee biome and Savannah collecting silk as I went oh here we go this is a good find finally took me a while to find you my friend Long Live Chester I dumped a bunch of stuff in him and kept on keeping on taking note of old mate parrots location and collecting whatever took my fancy and soon I'd fully discovered the edge of the map down this way so I headed back North killing some random ugly fish dinguses on the way I killed some spiders too but left this Nest intact as it was relatively close to my face and I figured a never-ending supply of spiders to kill was wise to maintain health and Sanity and of course to get silk I arrived back at base with tons of stuff to dump in the fridge and I now explored the edge of the entire map so I asked this question what do I do now I feel like I conquered the world I got to cooking for a start and this kept me busy for a while I grabbed some ice from nearby and tested if I could use it as filler in the crock pot and I could indeed by evening I had plenty of meals in the fridge now I've got a raincoat ready for if this chest somehow gets destroyed I will cry it began raining so I grabbed my umbrella and had a look through my crafting options in preparation for the various Seasons ahead of me I wanted to be ready for the heat the cold and the wet for now though I made a net with which I caught some butterflies and I placed a few drying racks on which I strung up some meat and with food for days almost everything I needed in prep for winter and an easy way of managing sanity and health I found myself in the odd position of feeling comfortable in this game can you believe that and so I randomly began placing down stone walls oh I made it higher is that good I didn't mean to do that there was plenty of stone nearby so I collected a bunch and after an encounter with some pesky hounds I tried placing down a wooden gate firstly I think I left too big a gap and secondly and I blew my walls stupidly what have I done I ended up with this glorious gauge setup and I built the wall out a little more before spending a day collecting stuff mainly wood which I used to place a random gate here at the end of this unfinished wall and then all right let's go try and find a cold fan so my ridiculous wall project was halted Midway through and off I went I killed some spiders first because why not and soon I was tracking the Beast thinking of these suspicious dirt piles which led me all the way to the swamp and there I lost the trail as I was trying to find it in the dark I started feeling a bit chilly signaling Winter's imminent arrival which is exactly why I wanted the trunk by the way as you can use it to make a nice cozy jacket to somewhere here right the hell did it go alas even in the Morning Light I was unable to pick up the call of hands Trail I settled for some Inland exploring and a tall bird slapping and before long I had filled in a lot of the blanks on the map I found the classic little farm area and I planted some seeds because why not and I of course slapped any spiders in the vicinity I need filler for food there's tons down here I don't think it disappears in Winter right maybe it does and I think the berries do the carrots might so I might just pick the carrots while I can so I collected 10 carrots I started taking damage from this night's chill so I headed back to base to properly insulate myself from the coming winter I had my thermal Stone heating up by the fire I made a winter hat and then I figured it would be wise to set up a chest next to the Touchstone so I'd have materials if I ever died so I wormholed down to the swamped Touchstone and whacked down a chest this should keep me going if I die right bit of warmth can fight can make all the basics it got Frosty by the time I returned home and I hadn't fought anything for a while so I actually had a significant health and Sanity deficit for once I ate some jerky to remedy that and in the morning there was a notable blue hue to the environment believe that means winter is here we'll see snow in the next couple of days some hounds arrived so I cleaned them up it's great for my sanity and my health much appreciated I placed a couple more drying racks and then I realized I didn't have the materials to make another beanie I might have trouble getting far without the hat so I think hat had his priority hello Penguins welcome to the party I took out a great many spiders to farm some silk and top up my health insanity and the nest had upgraded to tier three so I destroyed it and replaced it with the T1 Nest that dropped and with that I had enough silk to make another beanie I slapped it on my head collected a little and then mused by the fire I thought that at the change of seasons you got bosses in Reign of Giants I made it through the summer last time I didn't see a boss made it through to a Winton it's pretty much winter now right no boss is forthcoming so where are them bosses at I headed out with a toasty thermal Stone and my beanie in the morning and spent the day collecting materials look at all these eggs do they fall asleep and I can steal them maybe and so I returned to the penguins lair after dark I stole one where are the others I saw like there were like heaps here before I tried another group of penguins further west and sadly they had no eggs to purloin in the morning I hit up the Savannah hoping to take down some Beefalo but they were Afflicted with some bright red buttocks and I couldn't seem to lure just one or two away the whole herd was intent on head-butting me Chester's gonna die he's gonna get Beefalo Bash so that was a fail and I came home empty-handed I tried again on day 24. and this time I managed to lure two away to their Doom I killed the grass protector pinks too and to withstand the cold I burned to bushes for quick bursts of warmth I chowed down on some jerky and hung up fresh meat on the drying racks and with the Dawn I was determined to find a winter Cola fan I made some darts to help me in my quest because from experience it's hard to catch up to Kohler fan to whack them in melee range so enraging them from a distance is the strategy where is it here he is I shot a fire dot at it and then slapped it with my ham earning a juicy eight meat and a winter colafant trunk all right all right oh what the hell is this pirogi is that because it had an egg in it I think it is all right let's test this 100 health 62. 40 Health restored not bad so that delicious penguin egg I still helped me discover a new health restoring dish great news I used the winter Cola fan to trunk to make a puffy vest the tool tip for which says warm enough for winter storms and I slipped it on and headed out to try and pill for more eggs unfortunately there were none to be found so I settled for picking at some ice in the morning I fended off a couple of hounds and despite the effort I went to to make the puffy vest I opted to leave it behind because I wanted the backpack inventory space and I figured I'd just burn stuff if I needed warmth so much for the puffy vest I guess we're gonna track down the walrus fella he's coming for me runs like an absolute nerd ow there we go get some what the heck I got a frozen we got the walrus tusk so we can get the walking stick now we burn down the forest I was sick of collecting wood to keep the winter fire burning so I figured getting a whole bunch of charcoal was the play and so we burned down the forest I ended up with 80 charcoal in my bags and I figured I might as well finish exploring the forest while I was there I found Maxwell's door it's like staring into the abyss maybe later maybe later I killed some spiders and I headed home through the nearby Wormhole once there I realized my stack of stale meatballs was dwindling so I got to cooking I tended the drying racks and I made myself a walking stick this helps me run faster and since I run faster I'm now willing to make a pee back I think the piggyback has four more slots but it makes you run a little slower but with the walking stick to offset that speed loss the inventory space was most welcome I wandered over to the P King's domain on day 28 because I figured it was time to establish a second base after building a fire pit and crock pot I headed over to the nearby desert as I'd only explored its border so far so I figured I should see what was in the middle predictably there was desert in the middle I continued using my Burns willy-nilly Strat to stay warm the Flaming Tumbleweed the Tumbleweed caught the tree on fire that's outrageous I Revisited this chessboard and fought both the Rhino fella and the zappy zappy bishop and I came away with a bunch of Gears a couple of purple gems and some marble and I smacked this vulture to death with my walking stick all told it was a wonderful visit to the desert with many a tumbleweed and many a display of Pyromania back at the new camp this cheeky Pig was freeloading enjoying the light and warmth and I set up a chest and fridge before musing about my food situation in some ways food's way easier in the expansion because I I can just I can get food from here random Birds random Cactus ice as a filler and then if you just get monster meat you just got meatballs for days man in the morning I gave the pig King some trinkets I'd found inside tumbleweeds and he showered me with gold as payment I tried giving him some other random stuff too he gave me one gold in return for some jerky and likewise for one pigskin I can just kill his family give their skin to him and it'll give me gold wonderful news I spent some time collecting chopping up my twig stores and claiming The Gnome and box thing from this ruin and in the morning I dug some Graves grave you desercrate causes a pretty big hit to your sanity but I earned myself four red gems from my troubles and slapping this cat with some ham restored some sanity so no harm no foul oh and I've been tracking a cola fan suspicious dirt piles through the night so I angered the Beast with the dart and took him out claiming another delicious pile of meat I gave the pig King The Nomad found for yet more gold which is very handy by the way as I'd been continually crafting battle Helms which cost two gold a pop I decided I'd had enough of these nerds stealing my fires warmth so I evicted them cat tail oh do you guys get into a fight with a cat give me the cat tail was a cat tail dude it's the tale of cute meat and this is when I finally realized the big piece I'd completely missed during that summer of death in my first attempt endothermic fire wait what maybe you can use this in summer but I had no idea I'm just glad I discovered it a season and a half in advance of summer for this time round I took out some invading Hounds in the morning including a Frosty one and I slapped down an Alchemy machine and spent some more time sussing out my crafting options and by that I mean I held abusive myself for completely missing the endothermic fire in my first playthrough the Penguins left give me your eggs I collected some ice and made one of the recipes I'd spied that I hope would help me out come summer all right Ice Cube oh you do wear it on your head okay quite frankly that's the most beautiful hat I've ever seen except I made it slightly early so I hope it doesn't melt by the time someone rolls around I left it in the fridge so surely nice right I cooked a bunch of pie Rogue with those penguin eggs and I was now satisfied I'd set up a worthy second base in preparation for spring and summer so I headed back to base number one the snow had receded there were spiders to murder and I claimed The Spoils of an abandoned penguin settlement it was a good day the eggs from that spot were all close to spoiling though so I made sure to cook them into Pie rogi as quick as possible I collected through the night and in the morning a hint of spring rain greeted me bird cage over here you in prison beautiful he's gonna power it out on now can I feed him monster meat he gave me an egg these poops infinite eggs out look at this okay that's ridiculously strong this is especially strong because you can give the birdie a bunch of near rotten food and she'll return fresh eggs those are some expiry date hacks I headed out to more thoroughly explore beginning with some Combat versus the Sparky Mech Bishops I also fought a bunch of bees and they dropped the bundling wrap blueprint for me an invaluable find I destroyed some hives too to get my hands on a couple of beeswax I wandered back into the forest I'd asked a few days back and killed a bunch of spiders I headed east into the desert where I fought some more mechs and admired Maxwell's signature what is this it's an m M for Maxwell I had a stack of five pie rogi but it's best eaten to restore health so I put down a random desert crock pot and began cooking meatballs to say to my Hunger I was running low on gold so gold I grabbed on day 39 I also took out the Hound spawners near the second Touchstone as I imagined respawning next to a bunch of doggies wouldn't be ideal I placed a chest down too with a few of the essentials in it for when that day comes oh my gosh what on Earth what is that big chunky boy you look a bit ugly it's just called a wet Goose I wish I could write it into battle oh I think it's angry I know if I had to fight the Moose ah he's trying to headbutt me so I don't know if this moose goose is one of the Giants that spawns seasonally but it's definitely a giant also it makes me curious about the logistics of a moose and a goose mating but that's neither here nor there it was time to defeat the big buffer as you can see my initial strategy was to rope some hounds Into The Fray epic battle Hound V moose leave Chester out of this sleeve chest out of this where that moose makes the stupidest noise I've ever heard in my whole life along the hounds were dead and it was time to get in there and slap the Moose goose with my hand back ah maybe maybe drop my weapon she executed some rather long range headbutts and she let out a ridiculous scream that caused me to drop my weapon also she had a rather large egg something is bouncing around inside if I went in for an attack it seemed pretty much impossible to outrange her attack so I tried to get behind her for the Dodge which worked a few times but I mostly just tanked the hits and thanks to my helmet I didn't take too much damage but it did begin to add up so I ate some pirogi to replenish my health hey we got the wet moose Goose yes the wet moose gooses no more wet down fella after a musical night chasing spindly fingers I returned to inspect the egg can I hammer it I can oh my gosh it's electric oh my God what the hell no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no I'm sorry I apologized I didn't mean to it was an accident I did not think there would be an army of tornado chickens in that egg but here we are oh they they um they stun themselves what there's an electrified goat chasing what are you doing why is there electric goat chasing me as well what the hell is going on oh they're getting electrified by the turn the tornado leave Chester out of this they dazed themselves after each Spin Attack so that's when I ducked into strike and I managed to start picking them off and let's try goats getting in on it Go electric dope why are you attacking well then go they're killing each other the goats cleaned up on him yo you angry goats absolute beasts leave me alone oh what the hell they killed your stuff no the Sparky hornsters had murdered my best friend Devastation also this one chased me for ages oh that that got out of hand rest in peace Chester your eyeburn can stay here wait a minute what the hell you can just replace Chester by putting the eye bone back down and I should never have mourned you you cheeky bugger okay so not so much Devastation after all I used a lot of the full moon to collect the stuff Chester had dropped but apparently this one goat wasn't sleepy I I thought if you lost Chester it was game over I you're supposed to be sleeping in the morning I left the desert with my head held high having successfully taking out a family of moose gooses I killed some spiders in the forest and I returned to base where I made myself a luxury fan using the goose feathers I'd collected use oh gosh it may be freezing okay well we can use the luxury fan during summer if desperate I tended to my drying racks and spent some time making sense of my overflow of materials but honestly not much sense was made If we're honest this base is a total mess I chopped trees all of day 43 collecting three stacks of wood and I took out this eyeball plant because its presence near my base offended me I placed another chest and cleaned up some of the mess before heading south east to finish exploring this Rocky biome and while there I collected yet more gold beyond that there wasn't anything of interest in this area I killed some bees and they dropped two more bundling wrap recipes which is outrageous and I killed some spiders too gotta feed the need for violence by the way by this point I had a second fridge down and I placed a fifth chest too I made some Gunpowder but I wasn't sure how to make use of it as I lacked a gun and I finally made a tent which I barely used because in my experience it's mainly useful for regaining sanity and I had very few sanity issues I tended to my drying rack once again and I had a juicy stack of 18 jerky in the fridge by this point and I headed to kill yet more spiders I was pleased to note that this this had a vaulted tier 3 once more as I believe this means the Spider Queen boss can spawn and I had her on my list of bosses to conquer I continued chugging along cooking stuff collecting stuff to ensure I always had a decent supply of all materials in my bag and I made a habit of checking daily to see if the mama spider was ready to play Spider Queen the hounds were banged so I thought why not have a good old-fashioned Hound V Buffalo Rumble which was my default strategy for dealing with hounds my entire playthrough of the base game it was a glorious Rumble indeed his Spider Queen everyone has spawn come on Spider Queen I wandered over to my other base collecting as I went and I was impressed to find the ice and Ice hat I left in the fridge hadn't melted at all I'd been intending to place an endothermic fire down here but I forgot to bring nighter so I wandered off again in the morning and I figured I should probably collect as much ice as possible before summer hits to ensure I was able to make plenty of ice hats if necessary and of course it's also good as filler in the crock pot I made two wax paper ready to use as bundling wrap I checked on my Spider Queen but she was still shy and I placed down an endothermic fire at this base and queued up another ready to place down wherever I wanted these five eyes burn blue and of course cool you down rather than warm you up so they will help me out in summer as normal fire does in Winter that night I caught my first Firefly and now it kind of felt like I was just waiting for summer I made another Ice Cube hat and placed it in the fridge and I figured my handbats would rot extra fast in Summer's heat so I decided to hunt down a tentacle Spike from the swamp I did this tentacle destroying dance over and over and got my hands on one it wasn't truly summer yet but for some reason I thought it was so I got a little over enthusiastic with my ice hat and when I was fighting this tentacle I lacked the protection of my Viking helmet oh gosh I nearly died I don't know I killed some spiders and ate some jerky to replenish my health before killing this eyeball plant that had appeared out of nowhere but one here too we reckon just lure hounds to it could be a good strap and so I planted the two next to each other just a short walk from my base and I figured they'd be handy to lure enemies too in a pinch I collected up a storm in the nearby area because collecting stuff never goes out of fashion in this game and the next day yet more collecting gold specifically I got kind of wet though standing around in the rain getting kind of wet better not die where's my torch the next day I collected yet more gold well I can press caps lock caps lock does this no way that was a cool find but I proceeded to completely forget about it and I never used it again I headed back to the swamp and the plan was to collect as many tentacle spikes as possible so I had a good supply of weapons to keep me going I had a great start with five in a row drop I I don't know what the job rate is but that feels very lucky there's two more over here what the heck these are the ones I left here earlier so that was a successful Expedition Spider-Man are you here yeah she was not there yet sadly I left my abundance of spikes lying around to my base and the hounds were banging so I had an opportunity to test the eyeball plant strategy it proved effective it turns out hounds are weak in the face of overwhelming eyeball the eyeballs ate all the teeth though so that probably wasn't the best idea teeth are pretty useful I collected ice made myself a marble suit of armor which I plan to use in the mines I spent some time giving random stuff to the pig King and I needed fireflies but for some reason I didn't make a net to catch the absolute abundance that emerged during the dark part of night I killed a horde of spiders on day 56 and the land had finally adopted an orange Hue so I realized summer was actually close now I made a minor hat using a firefly some gold and a straw hat and I queued up a fridge crock pot and chest in preparation for my dive into the mine that night I planned to catch a bunch more fireflies as these can be used as fuel to keep the mining hat working but apparently they didn't want to spawn in the biomes near my base so I found zero before day broke and on day 57 I began to feel the heat do you recall how this threw me into a ridiculous spiral of sweaty destruction on my first playthrough as the librarian yeah well this time I just chucked some charcoal on the endothermic fire and I cooled down my thermal Stone and shoved it in my pants and I of course had an ice cube on hand if needed and then it was time to spelunk oh that's a big that's a big spider's Nest oh crap I set up a camp just near the entrance and cleared out the spiders destroying the nest and claiming it for myself that night I headed upstairs and caught five or six fireflies in the morning I headed back into the mines hopped the mining helmet on my head and began to explore oh he ate the whole stack I didn't want you to eat the whole stack you absolute Beast I don't know what I expected to happen but rip 40 Flint there were some berries and mushrooms to collect so I began stocking my Subterranean fridge and I wandered into this mushroom tree biome featuring some red eye rabbits I learned in my playthrough of the base game that these fellas are vegans and they will attack if they smell meat on you so as you can see I had no meat on me oh crap I picked up the monster meat no I didn't mean to do that it was an accident all right my hat is on 45 if I add another Firefly to it add fuel it adds 40 percent not bad I destroyed another spider's nest and continued exploring employing the same strategy as my upstairs Explorations with a goal to uncover the edges of the map first but before long my thermal Stone had lost its chill and the heat began to get to me I was getting hungry too also there was an earthquake I returned to my cave base but I had no meat down here and you may recall this lovely lady eats only meat so I headed upstairs to have a feed I wandered over to this birchy bio because I noticed earlier it was replete with fireflies and sure enough his Darkness fell it was a firefly Bonanza I collected 13 before the sun rose I continued my mind's exploration heading west into this Rocky biome spill it what the hell is this what is this oh what the since I need the light from my mining helmet I can't wear my usual Viking helmet for defense so I put my marble armor on for the fight against the shadow Beast oh I killed it what the hell what is this thing what do I do with this I was stumped but it looks like a Crackdown into an even deeper cave and I'd seen comments about the mysterious ruins so I felt like there should be an entrance somewhere I kept on and though I did spy two more orange glowy cracks I found no such entrance we've got the edge of this area that's good sanity is constantly drained in the dark down here so I took out some spiders to give myself a much needed mental health boost before returning to camp for a feed I decided I needed a better food solution down here as I'd been leaving my meat in the fridge so the bunnies didn't attack me but that meant I had to stay relatively close to Camp so I made some bundling wrap and spent some time cooking fresh meatballs using monster meat and random filler I'd found around the mines all right that should do Chuck this in here so the pig the pigs can't find it I'm pretty sure they can't smell it when it's wrapped up I believe I read someone's comment to that effect and we go find spiders because my sanity is getting low I said pigs there but I meant crimson-eyed bunnies you get the idea I headed east and found some of these stinky bats which are actually quite handy because they died in one hit but still granted me five health and Sanity we have the biggest technical you've ever seen in your life holy crap these These are fuel too right yeah they give 20 that's not bad so between the light bulbs and fireflies I no longer had any worries about keeping my mining hat Juiced why would I attack this should I attack it surely that's a terrible plan I got a bit hot so I stood next to a light bulb plant with an ice cube on my head for a bit to cool down before heading back to Camp to cool down my thermal Stone once more while there I chopped down some trees as I was running low on charcoal with which to fuel my fire oi no I give that back you little rat despite the mole worm slower on my thermal Stone I picked it up and got on the move again heading into this rather large mushroom tree biome oh what is this I feel obliged to attack it I found another monstrous egg over here and I gave you into my impulse what is that fail what the heck despite his defensive prowess I soon vanquished the ugly slug I got your number snail oh it's a slurt I attacked the egg again and it was a repeat so I guess this is a way to farm slurtle slime though I had no idea what that was for the heat was soon getting to me once more so I headed to Camp to cool down before heading north clearing one of these swamp spider nests out of the way and clearly there was an endless battle between spider and tentacle going on here and judging by the 300 kilos of spider glands lying around the spiders weren't having a good time of it I explored this large bulby biome and by this point my sanity was beginning to suffer so I decided to head to the surface to top it up with some spider murder the Ice Cube kept me cool up here but it also made me wet as it melted down the back of my neck and wetness strained sanity too so I had to stand next to the fire to dry off I burned down a bunch of trees as I wanted more charcoal and on day 66 I resorted to the tried and true flower picking strategy to top on my sanity to full and as I was heading to burn down yet more Forest the moment I'd been waiting for for the past four seasons finally arrived a worthy full approaches what does that mean oh gosh promise I'm gonna get too hot what is that that noise is terrifying bro am I under attack or not oh what is that oh there's a fiery warp idiot dragonfly saliva I managed to escape the beast's notice for now so I headed to base to cool down and prepare myself and in the morning I engaged fighting he's destroying bees or he's maybe I want to fight him at night he looks toasty oh gosh I got right in there but just like the muscus the extreme giantness of this giant made it difficult to dodge the attacks so I kind of just tanked most of them and thanks to my armor I didn't take crazy amounts of damage but I still took a fair bit especially because it's so hot next to the toasty bloke that you start taking burning damage as soon as you go in for the attack I lured it towards the spiders wondering if a giant battle wouldn't shoot but the insects that seemed to lose interest so I cleaned up the spiders myself before heading back to base quickly to cool off and when I returned where'd he go he didn't despawn did he I wanted to kill him I didn't think he would despawn maybe he went further south why would he go further south though I kept up my search but the dragonfly giant was gone a missed opportunity and a sad day indeed I headed back into the depths and chopped wood for a bit before heading east into this bat and bat poo bio featuring an abandoned Camp there are a few little Pine forests too I wish I was happy to top up my stacks of twigs and grass and I was amazed at how large the map was down here it just keeps going holy crap it's huge during this earthquake a little mole buddy had a rough time of it pick up moleworm what the heck I wandered through this Rocky biome high-fiving some rock lobsters as I went and I unpacked my lunch for a quick feed before rebundling and carrying on my thermal Stone was staying cool much longer so I surmised we'd pass the height of Summer's heat after exploring much of the East I did finally get a little toasty though so I headed back to Camp before taking on some spiders to regenerate sanity despite how terrifying that tentacle eruption was I decided it was a good idea to attack ow getting whipped man [Music] ah that was a bad plan that was a bad plan I continued North claiming a circle of red mushies enduring another earthquake and exploring this huge light bulb biome and I found this bunny man village with quite a solid population I fought another crack Shadow and I stared at the crack a bit as I was still confused I wanted to go in the crack oh what the hell what is that oh that was illegal this Shaggy worm weirder wasn't too hard to defeat all it took was a few tactical slaps to the face hey globerry I'm not thinking of the monster meat because that is a trap glowberry interesting I headed upstairs to see if I could make anything using the globearing moggles reference to wear a smelly Vision this recipe requires two live mole rats and I only had one of those so I couldn't make it just yet I headed back down and took stock of my exploration efforts so far I've explored pretty much everything to the north just a gap here I think it's a bit of swamp basically maybe it's a mushroom biome I want to explore this because I feel like there might be an entrance I've got more Southwest more south Southeast is done and I got more just straight East okay so I had a fair bit more to uncover but I was determined to find that fabled entrance to the ruins and I figured this area to the West might be my best bet as I'd seen heaps of cracks there earlier as you can tell I was desperate to go in a crack what are these by the way these are like demon spiders I killed these two and then went to mine their spawner to destroy it oh hey I concluded these are just weird Subterranean Rock spiders I wandered around the biome but all the cracks seem to have disappeared I wondered if perhaps they only appear at a particular time of day oh see it opened up I thought the shadow monster that came out but ultimately I had failed to find anything that would lead me deeper to these ruins which I was now beginning to doubt even existed I was tempted to Google it but I wanted to find it myself organically I had a last minute idea maybe I needed to make some magical item in order to unlock the ruins so I made a top hat and I was gonna make a press to hattitated which is the first Magic Machine but I didn't have time to catch the four rabbits required before the 100 days were up and despite my failure to get into the ruins I celebrated these first 100 Days with some Hound murder including slapping a fiery Hound who spontaneously combusted I'd made it through all four seasons and I felt well established to carry on in strength especially with two touchstones in the wings but unfortunately I'd only managed to kill one giant the Moose Goose so let me know if I should return for 200 days where my aim would be to defeat the seasonal Giants and also finally find my way into the ruins beneath the mines if they really do exist don't forget to give enlisted a crack for some large-scale multiplayer
