    This game is fantastic. The developer releases a juicy update every week or so. They usually drop an entire race or skill with each update, along with a ton of bugfixes and QOL. The newest version has playable goblins, orcs, ursine, gnolls, and more.
    The mods are a little sparse right now but the dev has made a point of setting up a robust modding framework. There is currently settlement management in the works as well.

    You mentioned a few times about the difficulty of sustaining food. The mechanic becomes pretty inconsequential after a little bit (unfortunately!) Which makes sense, of course, because it's a land abundant with forest, and very few settlements. Either way, you just need to be cooking your meat. Oddly enough, uncooked meat isn't the best. Find a campfire in a town to cook, or figure out how to make a fire yourself! Getting like a small stack of 40 (cooked) meat will keep you going for quite a while.

    • @Dubmentia
      @Dubmentia 3 месяца назад +6

      Very true. I downloaded the demo last night and played for a couple hours and I was struggling for food until I wiped out a fish man village and came back with 60 fish meat lmao.
      Also, tip for new players. Take the adventuring skill at the start, it allows you to start the game with a knife and water skin. Knife allows you to butcher corpses for meat and water skins let you carry 150 units of water each. Once you learn the game you'll know how to find that stuff on your own and can start with different skills, but until then it's crucial for survival.

    Hey Amphibian, I don't know if you read these especially on VODs, but I just want to reassure you that the Kenshi/Kenshi-like content is always amazing. Not completely sure how to put it into words but I think the extra effort it takes to make a story out of it, really adds to the experience. You know, trying to put it into words, your stories and especially your crazier 'trying to make content out of nothing' stories are really what keep me watching and appreciating your content. Recent stuff in my life has made me appreciate just how difficult it is to do, so from me to you: you help me smile and you help me find inspiration from the mundane and for all this and so much more, thank you!

    • @CoqueiroLendario
      @CoqueiroLendario 3 месяца назад +22

      While i can see the similarities, i don't think that the comparison gives the real props for this game.
      UnReal World has a really deep hunting, trapping and leather processing mechanics, seasons and deep interaction but i think the game kinda lacks things to do with other humans, you can't really have deep relationships with the populace of the world.

    Not sure if they have fixed it since I last played, but pyromancy was the only attack skill that could get exp from destroying inanimate objects. So if you go underground (like the cult basement) or go to a mountain, you can just constantly blast at the walls until you hit max pyro level super quickly. Provided you have the food and water for the grind time.

    I've had good luck with Protection and Axe for starting combat skills. Str and End go best with that. Not sure how well these scale, since magic is harder to learn, but this build lets you jump into fights right away.
    Third starting skill should probably be crafting or Adventuring. With Adventuring, you start w a canteen, which is the most useful travel tool. And your Axe skill lets you start with an axe, and you can cut any valuable trees and sell the wood for a lot.

    Soulash 1 was pretty good, but was heavily tied to its plot so it was much less replayable imo, since you were a reborn old god seeking to recover their power, so the world would be aggro on you from like day 1.
    This sequel is doing a lot to make the game flexible and open ended so you can do what you wish, be it go murderhobo like last one, or be a hero, or whatever else.
    Would still recommend trying 1, its fun.
