If you like this style of video, here's another one, just for you - ruclips.net/video/s2u-NULLb38/видео.html
*Disclaimer, it's not just for you, everyone sees this comment
would reccomend you get some kind of dynamic world mod, for late game, but i cannot belive you are playing this game right after i also found this gold mine, love your content man😘💖
I loved this video
Word of warning be mindful of the animals the beak things and spiders in particular are a hungry lot 😵
It's just for MEEE !!!!! 😄😄😄
Welcome to the community laith.
Laith: Escapes holy nation slave camp like a chad
Also Laith: Walks straight into the Holy Nation capital…
Hiding right under their nose.
i'm sorry the WHAT
@@TheSocialStreamersBlister Hill is home to Holy Lord Phoenix
@@TheSocialStreamers yeah, the house with the statues you were looking at near the end was the house of the big guy himsels, holy lord phoenix (you were building him a statue at rebirth)
@@TheSocialStreamersblister hill us home to the emperor of the holy nation 😭😭. holy nation badically just racist and mysogynistic and sends evrrything except human men to slave camps
Slave start is actually a hidden easy mode. You start by lockpicking then improving your athletics and strength with night runs while carrying the chains. In the end you get beaten up in the morning for toughness. Do that for two weeks and you will be a beast.
Works IRL too
@@Tom-oj7si And that's what I'm telling Child Protective Services when they come a-knockin'. You don't get it, I'm just toughening my kid up for the wild world out there!
@@rdrrr Some may call them "abusive parents" but i call them *pro kenshi gamers* !
@@rdrrrno sir, we’re actually Min-maxing! 🤣
It's also good for training skills like mining or farming, etc, that can be useful for earning money or building your own base, and since the guards never kill you, and feed you enough to stay alive, you can effectively grind these skills indefinitely, in completely relative safety.
glad you're starting kenshi but slave start is actually bonkers good, you don't need to feed yourself and you can grind insane levels in stealth/assassination/lockpick skills in safety
I prefer to start with 2 Shek & basically never stop fighting guards until you can literally john Wick your way out of the main gate as 2 turbochads.
Thought he’d come out the pit looking like Bane
Just a shame the Cage levels are so low in rebirth, after escaping I always go to Squin for additional lockpicking training. 😂
When I first started playing Kenshi, I went for the Slaves start for extra hard game. Turned out to be just Tutorial Heaven.
It’s only a good start if you already know what you’re doing, otherwise it’s torture.
Laith - does slave start. Calls it a mistake
Me: Does the slave start when I want to play easy mode.
Benefits of the start: You don't need to seek out and find food. You get healed for free. You can grind out stealth, assassination, lockpicking, toughness, labor, strength and athletics. Shackles lower some of your stats which makes it easier to level up the stats it lowers. It is, perhaps, one of the best starts to learn the basic mechanics of the game.
Wanderer is probably the best to learn the combat of the game. It starts you in an area with the "weakest" enemies of the game: Starving Bandits. (Just ignore the fact that player characters start with worse stats then the weakest enemies in the game)
Rock Bottom is the most interesting start for learning the consequences of losing limbs by starting you with a missing left arm.
Cannibal Hunter is the best start to learn how quickly you can go back to the main menu.
Kenshi is a great game Laith. It takes time to learn but once you master it you will seek out more challenging things for yourself like downloading a mod that gives you a start with no limbs or a start in the Foglands or Ashlands. Also, if you meet a character named Beep. Hire him. Treat him well. Learn to love him. Beep is the unofficial mascot of Kenshi. He is beloved by the Kenshi community. If he loses limbs don't worry. If you give him cybernetic limbs it unlocks a new 'idle chatter' dialogue set for him.
"Cannibal Hunter is the best start to learn how quickly you can go back to the main menu." XD🤣
You can slowly grind dodge, hand to hand and even melee atk, Def, if you smart about weapons I walked out of the rebirth ready for bug master with 5 slave start, it took me eternity but it's possible.
i think the only reason people say its "easy" is because there's no where to go but up in the start
@@jackb.207 True but I wouldn't want to subject new players to the "creativity" of Kenshi players and the stupid shit we do to get stats faster/easier. Better to give them a gist on the benefits than a step by step on how slave start is the best start to become a martial artist. Personally, I prefer Rock Bottom for martial arts runs, if only because I can make God Hand references by doing so.
@@sonderistic7664 No, it really is the easiest. It gives you all the benefits of grinding specific skills without any of the risks inherent to Kenshi. To top it off, the Safe House just outside Rebirth always has enough food to get both your characters back to 300 Hunger. Combine both of those aspects and you can really run your characters just about anywhere depending on how much "free" xp you got while in Rebirth. While it isn't a head start per se, the amount of time you can invest into Rebirth can often bear more fruit than an equal amount of time spent in a different start.
"hes gonna be beaten starved and stripped of all humanity"
sounds like a tuesday in slough
Wait, this isn't COD?
We need Part 2: Saving Jumper
Shes the middle child maybe shes trying too snitch
Lathe playing Kenshi? Finally, something to brighten up this boring-ahh Sunday!
It is an incredible game. I shall be playing more.
@@TheSocialStreamersshall is crazy 😂😂
@@TheSocialStreamers Glad to hear it, because it sure does look the part! I'll make sure to stay tuned in.
@@mr.d5552 Is crazy is crazy
@@TheSocialStreamersyesssss😭😭
Can't believe Laith is now playing my favourite sandbox game.
Here's a funny thing you can do: go to a city in the south that's built entirely within a metal structure and open a big building in the middle.
This.....this is a great idea
With his stealth he can probably do it easily and let the guards take care of the friendly puppy inside 😊
Another fun idea: go to the southwest next to a small mountain and have a party with robot cosplayers.
@@stkosta2482 they are so friendly also, showing you their meat grinders
@@stkosta2482what are you talking about, there’s nothing but friendly human Greenlanders down there.
Its interesting to see Laith figuring out how to escape Rebirth by training thievery, disguising, and going south. Every time I did it, I just trained stealth and ran out through the [exit he didn't find]. Playing Kenshi for the first time is a treat.
For me it was stockpiling weapons, freeing and arming all the slaves and slipping out amidst all the chaos.
oh god that's so hilarious and fun to do. Sucks when you catch a harpoon to the head and die, though, because the guards are too busy dealing with all the chaos and can't come patch you up. @@wikidpsycokilla
I adore Kenshi, poured hundreds of hours in transporting hashish through the swamps and deserts to make fat profit.
How much are you talking about like how many cats do you make selling hash? I thought about doing it but didn't find any information telling me it was worth it
@@gareththompson1041If you take the hash bought from the Swamp to the Flats Lagoon marketplace, you can easily make 20,000 from about 5000 cats worth of hash. I remember making 2 or 3 trips and reaching 100,000 cats. Used the funds to start a city in the middle of the fog islands.
@@gareththompson1041hit 2 or 3 swamp villages, each village should have a vender for hashish and fish. Some general stores in will carry it as well, I wanna say you buy one unit for like 112 ish, and transport it to flats lagoon. One unit sells for like 680, and the city just south made of the old metal structure, I forget the name but they buy it for like 680 as well. I don’t remember the exact numbers but 1 unit is 500+ profit, and the two cities are legal so no trouble for smuggling.

@@gareththompson1041I personally like sending two or three new guys if I’m gonna do it though, it does take longer but by the end should be at 40+ athletics from level 1,
My favorite start in the game. Lockpick/stealth/slave fight club at night. Train your strength/athletics/laboring during the day. Naruto run your way into the swamp and befriend cool ninjas
The chances of laith picking literally himself on one randomise character is insane
Thank you for playing this I love you
And I love you, random citizen.
@@TheSocialStreamers - A citizen of Metrocity?
Honestly the fact you kept accidently likening slavery to a job makes me imagine that the characters got enslaved by following a "Job" advertisement that was just a slavers trap
They were slaved for not following the word of our lord and savior Okran, or being a women smh
Ow like in the middle east ;) :p
This is the last game I expected you to play... also one of my favorites. Well done!
Laith playing Kenshi?!? I’d never thought I’d see the day. I recommend downloading mods, especially that to increase skill learning rate because you can spend an incredible amount of real life hours to not get far in the game.
It’s always exiting seeing someone new to Kenshi. I really hope Laith continues with more of this. I can’t wait to see his reaction to stuff like Beak Things and realizing the holy nation was only the beginning.
31:44 this needs to become a chanel meme
Imma be real, this is not something I honestly expected on this channel! Kenshi is one of my favorite games of the century, and you got the *charisma*. this is magnificent 😂
I came here expecting a silly gameplay of Kenshi and randomly I found the most beautiful kissed by angels dude wtf
"Is there anything else I rather get?"
"The book of the Holy Flame? No..."
*heh*
Laith.. being a slave in Kenshi is like daycare IRL. You get (some) food, you can train your (labour) skill and the guards protect you (from everyone excepte them).
Try the "Torso" mod .. I promise you it will give you the perfect - most balanced Kenshi experience that you (n)ever wanted.
hes taken well to how grinding works in this, if nothing else. if its stupid and it works, it aint stupid
Honestly, the guy looks like Laith but as an E-Boy
Nooo... the lone shack is perfect for escaping. It is sponsored by the rebellion to give escapees a fighting chance. Lots of food, some basic clothes and even medkits.
Laith playing the best game? Oh yes.
When doing a slave start, I find that it's good to sleep during the day and use the night time for training. Train your stealth and strength at the same time, by carrying heavy shit, and then train your athletics by running around light. You can train stealth and thievery by going and stealing food. Get attacked in the morning so you can sleep and heal all day and be ready for action at night again. You can simply enter a cage whenever you want to and often the guards will just leave you there. It is a bit of a tedious start but then there's no better way to powerlevel your thief/rogue skills. I'm currently playing a slave start game and my char is a super ninja now with 95 stealth and it only took ~20 days. You can also level assassinations as well.
Jumper is still waiting dude, it's been 2 months. 😂 For real though, great video, I just picked up Kenshi on sale and wanted to check out a few getting started type videos before I jump in. This has got me hyped!
Ever since I found out you were friends with simo I knew you'd try kenshi out eventually
I’ve been literally praying for Lathe to play Kenshi, it’s my birthday miracle!
I thought I'd be frustrated by lack of understanding of mechanics. This was actually one of the most entertaining videos i've seen in a while.
"What? Did somebody escape? am i not the main character ?" Hahahaha laughting in Kenshi. NO! this is Kenshi you are NOT the main Character. I like this series so far!
You came out of that with really great skills, while they kept you fed and healed up. When you start off on your own, you're screwed if you get knocked down and out. Nobody is there to heal you, you just lay there and die, and sometimes when you think you're just going to make it, animals come along and eat you. This looks to be one of the better starts in order to start to build in the beginning, since they take care of their slaves. It took me a lot of time to naturally get my skills up that high, fighting tooth and nail for every scrap of food and bit of healing. I had lots of deaths and reloading.
i love seeing laith play different games its nice to see this channel grow a bit
I love that he started as a slave on his very first game. Mine was wanderer. I got knocked out by bone dogs, then some slave traders found my unconscious body, threw some shackles on me, shaved my head and brought me to Rebirth. So in a way I did do a slave start on my first playthrough. The game is much much harder going solo and being weak and free in the world. Can easily die in this game.
omg laith i've been playing kenshi since release, so good to see you playing this overwhelmingly underrated game
It's always entertaining to see a naive start. I had 3 locations on the map, I ended up going to the 2 most dangerous ones instead of the one with free shelter, food, beds, weapons and decent armor.
Love to see you playing non-paradox type games
Escaping rebirth kinda easy once you learn the way. It's always refreshing to see someone try first time.
Wew. just died horribly in kenshi myself, and now there's this suffering to enjoy, glad you chose one of the easier starts because a lot of people get gatekept by early deaths
bro tried attacking an armoured man with a sword, kenshi is a funny game
this needs to be a series
I watched you play for about 30 seconds and then immediately went and bought the game then came back and finished the video, QUALITY CONTENT mate keep it up 🖤🔥
as a long-time player of Kenshi, this video accurately represents EXACTLY what i also did the first time i tried the slave start.
even the part where he waltzed straight into the capital of the entire Holy Nation and where the leader of said Holy Nation resides. *Blister Hill. Home to the Holy Lord Phoenix.*
I have watched so much kenshi content it felt weird not having wacky music blasting in the background. Hope to see more of you later, maybe a barrative with a focused goal
This really came out right as I was feeling like playing Kenshi again.
Please more of this! Crazy journey so far^^
I hope to see this series continue
IVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS ALL MY LIFE
I often start as the slaves and just dismiss the other person. I have once escaped Rebirth while my char was missing both of her legs. I love that start.
You gotta go through the right of passage, play a full amputee start.
Subbed btw
Nobody:
Laith: TODAY'S SUBJECT... SLAVERY ☕
Would love to see more man. Still dying that the guy you randomed looks just like you 😂
“Was a slave… for the routine” just casual kenshi conversations.
cool to see non paradox stuff popping off. Well done mate
We need to see a continue of this series, foren needs to work his way up the ranks!!!!!!
Wait, this isn't EU4
you can get to the shack, but you have to go out the north gate, not down into the valley with the ruins.
Last time I played at the slave, I just left my computer running and just remained a slave for about 8 hours (aka my work shift) then I was super strong from manual labor. Then I leveled my sneaking and lockpicking during the night and went back to slaving by day. Then I stole Holy Nation armor and sneaked out of the camp.
Absolutely love this game. Great video especially for a first go at it, I've never tried the slave start but maybe I should.
I think 2 characters is better than 1 for beginners, basically you can have him working and getting money while the other one explore, also if something bad happen to the explorer, the other one can rescue him.
I really hope for the series to continue!
You can use the enslavement as a means to train. You work on your skills and then once you feel like you're in a good spot, you can try to escape.
Easiest way to escape is to find all the food you can. Food doesn't disappear from your inventory after guards beat you up. Then train athletics/lockpicking. Eventually you'll be able to out run the guards with an inventory full of food. The world is your oyster!
hell yes, love getting to see someone experience kenshi for the first time!
Welcome to Kenshi, where suffering is a core mechanic and the only way to improve is by getting your shit pushed in. Time to build a squad and liberate poor Jumper by force.
This was great. We need more please.
10/10 Video straight up loved the more narrative style xoxo
This is something I was not expecting but I needed
rebirth is suppose to be a hard start but its just a way to boost your stats freely. they feed you and treat any injuries you get. so you can get everything pretty high
This was one of the first game i got on steam when it was first available. I cant believe its still being worked on and is getting more popular. Talk about longevity lol
Love the luscious locks, Laith.
Absolutely more of this please!!
Subscribed because you are so close to being at 200k
You could have knocked the guards unconscious using the “assassination” skill.
Kenshi is such a cool game hope you have fun with it. My personal favorites are the skeletons (sentient robots who need no food). Also could you please make a second part and free Jumper and discover the world, because that sounds fun.
Its also no Laith video with alot of suffering on his part.😄
Was not expecting this, very cool to see! I'm surprised you didn't try to release other prisoners to start a riot with.
I love Kenshi its great one recommendation for making a kenshi videos is maybe putting the soundtrack in the background if its too quiet, especially as the soundtrack is a banger
This is why Kenshi is neat. You are forced to learn and all it takes to change the WHOLE game is just a different start condition. I played this on my 3rd play-through and I think it took me 1 real world week to break free (possible because I cranked squads and raids and random camps to max) just to try it.
I played this start and did get great stats while in captivity. Just before my final escape attempt I decided to knock out the guards and switch their outfits to slaves including shackles and this was very satisfying. I ended up making most of the guards into prisoners by the morning and what a beautiful morning it was to see most of the guards screwed by their own rules. :)
I love this, please continue this playthrough Laith! Would be great to see you gather an army to liberate Jumper later on! And perhaps even wage war against the holy nation :>
As a player with over 5500 (not a typo, been playing since early development) hours in Kenshi, I congratulate you on your persistence. By now, you are learning why Kenshi has such a fanatical following. After this, you should try the cannibal camp start. I have never made it out with the entire group.
I just started playing Kenshi again and you drop a video the next day 😂 talk about a coincidence
Does he saves somewhere the VOD's of what he plays or everything that isn't saved (every stream) goes into the void?
13:40 Also in 5 seconds of wandering around crouching while saying I'm the darkness worked so well as stealth training
Kenshi is such a difficult and rewarding game glad laith made a video
Never expected you to play Kenshi, but the games great so it's a welcome surprise
"During his time here he's going to be beaten, starved and stripped of all humanity. Fortunately for him, I have experience in this as I live in England."
As a Northerner myself, facts.
I'd love to see more Kenshi!
Please play more this was great!
I started as slave, saved two guys who join me, one died while me and the other guy escape. To escape I knock down a guard and took his clothes. It was a true adventure and now they're out for vengeance !
We need part 2.
Is there a part 2?
I don't see a part 2.
We DEFINITELY need part 2.😂
Ah kenshi one of my favourite games of all times, with surprisingly deep lore hidden under the surface
A Nodachi is a two-handed sword normally associated with Samurai
You actually shouldn't try to escape right away. Being a slave trains your skills during the day and at night you should be sneaking around and stockpiling food and gear. Also you can stealth bonk the guards, steal their gear, and walk out of the gate.
hey, did you know that if you have a speed higher than 10 you can *manually* dodge any melee attack while running away?
you know i tried this my self i went the slave route as well for my start. made 2 people one my main one as my lab rat being my 1st play of the game i had the same idea. yeah turns out the Lab rat spent most there time getting there chest caved in from fail sneaking and got a tougness of 36 eventually, after i kept knocking out guards stealing there gear and locking them up, i reached a point where 5 prisoner buildings were mostly full of guards i turned in to slaves. turns out if your strip them of there gear put shackles on them and put your slave clothing on them they become slaves. well the Lab rat got out on day 38 with enough food to wait the 90 hours tell the escaped slave goes away, my hair grew back and sadly i ran to the ruins 1st so i was struck there for a bit tell i wondered my way out, im not sure if the game glitched or the guards got tired of my 2 person gang BosoPhat. but the guards got tired of my pranks on them and just killed my main dude. oh his way to work as soon as he got in the middle of the camp all the guards ran in and just kept beating him and then left him there losing blood no medic provided so he bleed out and died in the middle of the camp. my Rep with the holy nation is -100. Lab rat joined the Flotsam Ninjas and vowed revenge imma build the biggest weed farm and start a unholy war of blood now >:3
Looking forward to more Kenshi! It's a truly fun game.
Would be interested to see you stick with this. Maybe eventually forming your own little base.
I need more kenshi from you
