This things are just tips, to make you not die everytime when you see a small bee, it's not so funny to die every single time when you see a walking tree like me.
I feel like this video is unnecessarily heavily opinionated. If you don't have access to a fashion melon, wearing a winter hat and using a thermal stone will keep you warm longer than just using the stone. You also have some contradicting advice; you say don't pick flowers because you will have less butterfly spawns, but then you say don't be worried about decreasing finite resources in your world. I agree that there are much better ways of getting sanity, but I wouldn't say picking them is a mistake.
Edgy Rick I don't understand. The thermal stone keeps you warm until it goes tepid, and then from that point on, insulation keeps you warm depending on what you are wearing.
I don't know why this is how it is, but it's how it is, insulation plus heat stone will make you freeze faster then just one or the other, you'd have to ask KCDA on that one...
Usually because after the thermal stone runs out of 'heat' it will start getting colder. This is why they can be placed in ice boxes for summer. Its helpful then, but not in winter.
by your logic, now I feel better about never using thermal stones in dst, as if they make me freeze faster, then that's another reason above being kinda expensive if the durability is worn down hard enough
Staying sane is preferable early in the game, especially when you don't even have a base set up yet, and most people pick flowers as a means of doing this. Flowers are a renewable resource anyways. There will be other chances to get butterfly wings.
I took the time to read through the majority of the comments here after watching the video. This is the first video from Edgy Rick that I have stumbled upon and I must say, between the blatant disrespect for anyone else and the lack of broader information, I don't think I'll be watching more. I've been playing DS and DST since day one of beta and I strongly disagree with many of the points he makes here. Which is fine, but after reading the comments it is clear that he seems to think there is no other way to play. This game is amazing and it is made much more fun by the ability to allow players to learn as they play and create a personalized play style. I am inconsequential on my own, but look at the broader picture on this, Edgy. Any one of your videos could be the first impression on new potential subscribers or other youtubers looking for working partners for bigger projects. Speaking to people in the manner I read over on multiple occasions here makes you look like a bad option. A bad option as a channel, a bad option as a venture partner and a waste of time. Do yourself a favor and clean up your attitude. You are holding yourself back form intellectual discussions and many opportunities for advancement. Which may or may not be a damn shame for other people, but absolutely is for you.
I played DS a little while after it came out, and I played DST before it was out in open beta. I am much better then all of the people in the comments and can back it up: ruclips.net/video/d64Z_eKxP1M/видео.html Looking at the broader picture is taking two steps back, ever heard of the loud minority? Or the silent majority?
I respect you alot you truly know the true meaning of Don't starve if you ever make videos I would subscribe and watch all of them man! You need to spread these words out!
@@EdgyRick I enjoyed reading that this random poster got (so far 129) likes for their comment and you have five to date. I think that says something about how much people like your attitude. The fact that you genuinely seem to feel that you are better than anybody else in the world speaks volumes. Would you care for a DST challenge ?
As someone who is newer to the don't starve community I have to say these vids aren't very helpful as you give a point and back it up with a poor explanation . I understand the basics like kiting, using caves, what items I should avoid using. But when trying to understand the complex parts such as why lower sanity is better to have, the explanations are half of the time unclear and difficult to understand. Maybe I should learn more about the game but that is my viewpoint on this particular video and some others you have made in the past. P.S I didn't mean to make this comment so long, so thank you for reading it all and have a good day
I try to explain it when I can, some can just be incredibly long therefore equations though, sometimes they would even take upwards of a minute to justify.
these videos are focused more towards experienced players, so it makes sense some of this stuff seems confusing. Flowers boost sanity so a lot of people pick them to get sanity back, but it's best to leave them so they spawn butterflies.
you know, I think the real and unconscious reason people fear sanity loss is because your vision gets grey and blurry, making it much less pleasant to the eye.
Small trick for the shadow hands. When one appear, walk to the hand's starting point with any light source equipped and it will dissappear without touching the fire.
I was like "Hey, this video is pretty good, I love learning stuff." And then I'm like "Why is this guy acting so good on the video but is a massive jerk in the comment section?" Some people just like the ad revenue more than viewers I guess. Oh well.
ruclips.net/video/CtAk9_0gp5o/видео.html&t For everyone, Joeshmocoolstuff (one of the well known best players) also puts these mistakes in their graves, using them is breaking your legs.
TBH the game is better when you don't play so try hard. Obviously if you know what your doing it's an easy game but it's also a boring game. DS is best when your caught of guard. Pack of hounds chasing you then deer clops spawns in and your living off carrots and berry bushes for two days while you kite them. Not when your sat in a day 1000+ base and you can go ark for ten minutes without worrying about death. But each to there own I guess.
Though it would be considered tedious continously being slayed by these wretched obstacles. But these players that are looking to experience the game in depth would love to gain advice on how to live longer.
i tried playing dont starve using all the rules i learned like i was doing a work and it drained out the fun. my tip is to do Science, make a base nad then tri to survive
I can definetely see why some people find it boring when you use these tips but honestly, i prefer having a 300+ day where i can just start massive bunnymen and pigmen wars whenever i want lol.
Yeah, this game is a lot better when you have no idea what you are doing. In one of my first runs, I was insane, and didn’t know how to get my sanity back up. I figured out that that weird looking dark thing was a rabbit. Then my character started saying show yourself. I had no idea what the hounds were at the time, and I thought my character was just saying that because they were going insane. Then the hounds came, and I thought they were a figment of my imagination. Nope. I didn’t have any armor, and was low on health. I died in two hits. But it was really fun! One of my favorite moments of me playing this game. It was a good experience for learning about tons of different things, even though it ended out being tons of mistakes.
@@jadefang2222for me its diferent, i was "Noob" you know my playstyle was diferent in 2018(when i started playing) but then i changed my playstyle because i was already sick being "a Noob" not a Noob exaclty but you know, then in 2019 i was playing diferent but my base was horroble Still and the only diference was: I not die do seasonal bosses anymore but i was not killing Klaus mas bq(because i din't have habit to kill theses bosses) and then in 2020 i upgrade a Lit bit more but this time i was killing Klaus and bq and my base was a Lit bit "cool" you know what i mean, and in 2021 its my final upgrade then you know,
3:18 But batilisks drop meat, which is a great food source. Plus, why would there be meat lying around? Especially in specific areas such as sinkholes?
Wolfgang players at their best. They can just tank Deerclops with a few campfires, marble armor and a football helmet. Of course it’s easy for him and Wigfrid mains, but not Maxwell or Wendy mains.
@@minihalkoja590 actually if you know his patterns, maxwell can be the best because he doesnt get pounded by shadow monsters right after deerclops for so long
I like that you're the one who says stuff like: "Oh you should use Pan flute to kill hounds, don't use tooth traps etc. etc. i'm so pro" Yeah? I think that i rather use the Pan flute to deenrage the Dfly when i'm kiting her and the lavaes are dead. "Guys i'm very pro, don't use rocks to make battlehelmets, they are very expensive etc. etc. make 80 crockpots" Expensive? They are literally cost two rocks and two golds and they are available from the beginning while you need an alchemy engine to make football helmet which has 300 less health. On top of that they are cheaper at the beginning of the game since rocks and gold is way more easier to get. And 80 crockpots?! For what the fuck?! The max you need for a full group is 10-15. The rest of the video were good tips i have to admit that at least And yes i admit Wolfgang is way better in Combat then Wigfrid because he has more damege but i'm not against having a Wigfrid in my team. I'm subscribbed to you and i like your videos just don't be a douche ok?
Gonna be a douche because your thoughts are stupid. Panflute is renewable, not to mention you don't need it for dragonfly if you just do enough DPS. Two rocks is ~30 seconds of time wasted. Football helmets are ~10 seconds of time wasted, 3x less time spent than getting just the 2 rocks alone. 80 crockpots, you heard me, 20 for each base, one by the swamp base, one area of them in the ruins base, the desert base, and the pig king base.
We are talking about early game and what are you talking about for you it's harder to get 2 stones 2 gold then to make an alchemy engine (for 12 stones 4 golds 16 woods) and find pig skin from pig house or from the pig heads or from fighting pigs when you can literally mine 1-2 boulders (gold boulders) to get a helmet that has more durability? Not seeing your point? And yes thulecite crowns and slurtle helmets are better but we are talking about EARLY GAME!
Here's some useful advice contrary to this video: 1) Don't be afraid to pick up flowers if really low on sanity. You can't fight those creatures early on. Butterflies don't yield much health. 2) Make a football helmet. It's easy to make early on and will save you most enemy encounters as it absorbs 70-80% damage. In winter, all I need is a thermal stone and this baby. 3) Don't fight the deerclops if you don't want to. Noone will judge you like this video guy. Deerclops will despawn in a few days. I use a panflute to make him sleep and he looses interest. I killed him with toothtraps once. 4) Open the cave entrance, except when near your base. Bats are easy to kill and drop Guano which is 1.5 as effective as manure, Which is not easy to get if you can't find beefalos or pigs. 5) Don't waste rocks on walls. I only make 1-2 wall funnels to lure the dogs or other creatures in to kill them with toothtraps. Nothing more. 6) Make a second, smaller base in a cave near its entrance, so u can escape overworld attacks. 7) Keep multiple backpacks. When I go out venturing I use an empty pack to gather resources. Backpack doesn't catch fire so put stuff you wanna save in it, in case you die by fire.
1) Flowers spawns butterfly aka hp, plus an axe can kill nightmare creatures. 2) He was talking about insulation clothing not armor 3) You SHOULD fight deerclops, the eyebrella will make spring into a friendly season instead of an annoying season, plus it gives u cool for summer. 4) Batilisk is just annoying, plus rot is a much better fertilizer, unless u use farms which is useless compared to berry bushes. 5) You could also use walls on dragonfly to rush her early game. 6) Waste of resources and time. 7) Use chests lmao, if you want extra inventory space u could farm krampus.
@@BaddyPlays Nah bruh just giving people tips so they can actually make past day 100 and killed most of the bosses, Im just sick of having trash players join my server
You got a few things wrong For 5), NEVER use walls in a tooth trap field, you'll just corner yourself, which is a death sentence. For 4) Bats, are annoying as fuck, there is no reason to build your base beside a sinkhole. And finally, for 7), backpacks are flammable, what the hell are you talking about.
@@k2ggers961 @The Golden Toaster (5) I am talking about creating a funnel to kill things with traps, not surrounding yourself. Totally different from what you are referring to. (4) Again, you misread. I never wrote 'build ur base around a cave entrance'. Dont open a cave entrance' when its near ur base, simple. (7) They were not flamable when i was playing, havent played it in a year so things might have changed.
Usually I'll pick flowers as an easy source of rot around the time I'm setting up my base. Having alot of rot for grass and berry bushes is good as if I cant find beefallo it is a nice alternative
I click to see don't starve tips, then get a guide of don't starve together tips, which are useless for vanilla, and they are pretty badly explained and almost completely unjustified.
Just saying, if you care enough to put an apostrophe in don't, you should be able to type "together". Your opinion doesn't apply to all of your viewers.
With the flower one, I feel already let down- I suggest taking some flowers, since they’re renewable and help you with sanity if you don’t have things ready to fight the nightmares, but not most of them in a certain area where you put you’re base, sine you might have to travel far from it to get butterflies.
1. Using HP from butterfly wings when fighting nightmare creatures you say? Well shit, i should kiss my world goodbye when i attempt that! 2. For some clothing i can actually agree with this one, other than the Eyebrella for summer 3. Running away from deerclops is somewhat a smart idea actually, cause you see, i honestly actually LIKE my sanity, thank you very much (unless i have enough things to fight him, then thats just my fault) 4. i can agree with this somewhat aswell, except for when its far away from my base, cause im pretty sure the last time i checked i dont leave meat on the floor unless i dont need it (AKA its spoiled, and i dont have any fires near to cook it) 5. Farms. thats all i have to say, just farms 6. i dont get it at all, their pretty easily renewable, aslong as you still have Meteor Showers enabled 7. some would think differently, so im just gonna leave this one alone 8. but then again, what if i dont want the armor? that drains sanity when worn, unless taken off but i think i'd rather not have to put my armor back on, and grab the darksword when i charge in again for an attack 9. Caves are useful, so i agree. 10. if you dont have the krampus sack yet (like said in the video) stop being a pussy, you dont need THAT much inventory space, right? (unless your trying to explore the entire world, then okay i guess) Now, im not trying to shit all over this video or anything like that, but im just trying to point out things that maybe should have been thought about first, but then again people have their own opinions and im just a youtube commenter, what am i to even shit on videos?
1. Nightmare creatures are extremely easy to kite. 2. Eyebrella is useful, but not the clothing I showed in the video. 3. Eyebrella keeps you alive in spring and summer, your sanity is not worth your life. 4. Not sure wtf you are talking about. 5. Farms are cancer, and extremey inefficient. 6. Rocks are renewable at an affixed rate, meteor showers generate about 15 rocks every 7-11 days, that is not enough to keep a 6 person server running. 7. Some who think differently are retarded. 8. Sanity is bad, keep it low. 9. k 10. Magiluminescence or puffy vest are usually better options then a backpack before krampus sack.
There are more ways to generate rocks then just meteor showers, petrified forests and underground cave-ins are two prominent rock sources, rocks are plentiful enough even on a long lasting server. As a tip for underground cave-in rocks, let moles live around your underground base and collect the rocks, then later when they are roaming you dig up their mole holes for a huge rock/gold/nitre/blue+red gem pay out.
Edgy Rick I’m not a don’t starve expert but : 1: nightmares monsters are annoying to kite. also, rot 2: beefalo hat is great in winter/spring for isolation and being able to walk close to them 3: cave bases 4: no one leaves meat on the ground 5: dragonfruit pies 6: rock can be a problem but to say that crafting a helm is a waste off them. I am not sure 7: some people just don't need to deal with nightmares creature all the time 8: see number 7 9: 10:backpack early game is a life saver (I dunno if dragonfruits were in the game back then but the point remain that they are great)
It's not a question of what you use or not... If you say in the video that A is wrong, you should use B!. Then, when someone asks about B you say: "I use D instead". So, the point you make on the video is mute, therefore its of no use. It's a filler. On another comment, people told you: "hey dude, you are contradicting yourself, first you say "don't pick flowers" and further in the video you say "don't refrain from picking non renewable resources for fear of "extinguish" them". Also, *something about this hats and stones*... And you also ran away (intellectually) by mentioning thermal stones again... Me, and I'm assuming Pawel are not questioning your methods, but the thought process and subsequently the validity of what you say. It's called questioning logic. It's the equivalent of asking someone about terrorism and them yelling "SWEEEDEN" instead of explaining why the first thing was said. If the hats are useless, why mention them in the video? That's the point.
@@pilky_boooi I just steal the hat from the walrus early on so I barely acknowledge their existence. The beefalo hat is technically warmer but I never end up needing it.
@@pilky_boooi Well, the hat he drops gives you a MASSIVE sanity regen so I would recommend cheesing him with tooth traps or whatever you'd like. Afterwards you just need to repair the hat every week or so and you will have no more sanity problems. You can also make a walking cane with his tusk for a nice speed boost (the cane has infinite durability btw).
I dont think everybody is a Wolfgang main, I know shadow creatures aint hard to fight, but I still appreciate my life and my vision because the blurry screen that you get by being insane is worst than nightmares ripping your face.
@@roughcactus69 im sorry Xx_cactusgod69_xX, but some aren't playing the game 23/7, speedrunning the game in hours, some new players wanna try themselves
Rereading these comments makes me realize how smart rick is. Willingly acting like a piece of shit to generate controversy is a common theme used by companies now. Smart.
In DST, lots of people don't know how useful caves can be (I sure didn't at first) when they first start playing, because when you turn caves on, when hosting a game, it will say something like "caves are resource intensive, can your computer handle it?" It scares people off because they honestly don't know. The truth is, you'll only need a few gigs of ram to host a game with a few people that has caves. If you have four gigs or more and decent internet, you'll be fine. Just ask all your friends to come with you into the caves if you want to cut down on resources.
Mistakes about being afraid being on low sanity and being afraid of using dark sword is spot on. Like every noob I know (including myself some time ago) were doing this. Mistake about using backpack instead of other useful things - I still do it. It just too hard to part form my things that I always carry around. Maybe one day... Or never. Btw, you really needed to speed up Deerclops fight. Thanks, I know how to kite him (even though in reality it doesn't always go so smoothly)
Quick tip: I totally agree with not picking flowers, but I have a better strategy: go around looking for a natural resource before starting your base, preferably reeds or the pig king, etc. This way while you're exploring, you can pick flowers in a spot where you'll never go back to. Picking flowers, pretty parasol and the garland are all pretty helpful early game.
No, no they are not. Pretty parasol is useless once you get an umbrella, which is extremely easy to craft, and the garland raises your sanity, which is bad because you won't get nightmare fuel.
Regardless of what you say I will always pick the flowers in the beginning for rot then go to the bee hives for plentiful flowers to gather butterflies from to replant near my base
Ugh...the one thing I can fully agree on is people using nothing but backpacks for the chest slot. It always seems like I'm the only one on servers that ditches the backpack altogether, then end up surviving longer. This is even with experienced players that are too spoiled on extra space when they could just preemptively craft items at their base and only carry 6 essential items. (Body armor, head armor, dark sword, small food stack, mining hat, lantern optional)
Edgy Rick MY ASS. You think, LIGHTBULBS, are straight up more efficient than picking flowers? I’m sure you’ve seen sodium_flouride’s comments about how flowers can be EASILY farmed for rot AND butterflies. That’s not even counting for the krampus spawn after you kill too many butterflies! Unless your base is built underground, YOU. ARE. WRONG. But, so am I. As, there are always better ways. Therefore, nobody should win the argument.
Actually better source of rot is juicy berries, lightbulbs and flowers have exact same amount of days of spoilage, which is 6 days, and you can plant flowers back tho if you catch butterfly into a bug net
Number 0: starting a world in autumn or spring is a terrible idea. You can get cactus flowers in summer and get the macktusk drops in winter so the best strat is obviously to start in summer or winter.
first: not everyone has a pc they call their battle station. some players have a small, decent keyboard, a pc that can run the game, and they dont lag too much. then, players who dont lag. alot. kiting 2 different nightmares doesn't seem all that safe. flowers are renewable, and most new players probably dont wanna die cuz some youtuber said "sane bad, insane good." unless they're playing maxwell, it seems like a bad idea to them to go insane. they will probably listen to you, be insane, die hundreds of times, and eventually quit the game all cuz "oh how DARE you not know how to kite. how DARE YOU try not dieing, even though you're new and don't know how to do all the epic totally gamer things i do. picking flowers for sanity/health? no, dont do that, they bad, even though there are tons of flowers and renewable" no.wonder you're called edgy, this is the only way you see to play the game. i enjoyed the game WAY better when sane, being attacked by 20 things at once isnt easy. no winter gear thing is also stupid. new players come across this and try it, they would be better off making the gear. they aren't gods at the game, and neither are you. this was the first impression of your channel for me, and this vid is old, but, like, people dont have to be insane all the time. most new players barely know how to kite, most haven't even reached winter alive because they follow your advice. i spent 4 hours trying over and over, thinking "guy good, only listen to him." then eventually, a server actually helped and realized i was new. they told me forget almost everything you said, and actually gave the basics. they told me yes, insane bad sometimes, but not all. they told me everything they knew, suggesting that make some winter gear just incase, burn controlled fires, and thermal stone heated whenever possible. most people who watched this vid and channel are new. keep that in mind. guess they dont call you edgy for nothing.
Edgy rick: you need more nightmare fuel Me: IM LEGIT JUST TRYING TO FIGURE OUT HOW TO GET THROUGH WINTER, THESE NIGHTMARE CREATURES ARE NOT HELPING, AND I DONT NEED ANOTHER 12 STACKS OF NIGHTMARE FUEL LAYING AROUND!!!
This video: "don't pick flowers! Don't waste materials on winter clothes! Go insane to fight nightmare creatures!" Me, holding a stack of flower petals, wearing my beefalo hat, and breezy vest, while running in terror at the thought of nightmare creatures: "No."
I know this comment is late but picking flowers is in no way a mistake in my opinion. I normally pick about two stacks when I start a new game. The flowers rot quickly and the rot is amazing for fertilization especially for the first sets of grass tufts and berry bushes in the base. Other then that I agree with the rest of them, especially the last one.
@@pilky_boooi I was not making fun of you or anyone. I was altering what simmikke said to make a one-up of sorts. I generally can't make it past day 30. My most recent run I made it to day 22 then got destroyed because beefalo in heat.
with all due respect, I die every time I go insane during anything threatening. its the combination of nightmare creatures and just about any other threat that does me in.
and then you bloody realize that you actually can plant flowers with buterflies, make a top hat and leave it at 1% for prehistirator, and that nightmres will kill you while u hit deerclops because of sanity drain
I super agree that you should use caves, most servers though don't have caves though. And I know how many people are a little bit scared about going to the ruins, but If you play your cards right, it shouldn't be so bad anymore, I've even got a star caller's staff and a magilumenecence (is that how you spell it?) and taken down the labyrinth (not saying what happened cause spoilers) by day 14.
Ok. This is all good for the people that can survive long enough to craft dark swords and stuff but for people that can barely get to winter they are going to try to keep their sanity up. So that's why I don't like this.
It's better due to nightmare creatures dropping extremely valuable loot (nightmare fuel) which can be used to make the best weapons and armor in the game, and many, many other things.
Honestly, if you find a bunch of bees and a couple of flowers, flowers are generally infinite, some might argue that you won't have honey, that what the bee boxes are for, take out some nests, make some bee boxes and boom infinite honey, unlike bee nests, these are renewable,and somewhat more efficient. Nobody wants to fight deerclops with a spear. Being spooked of having no sanity is normal, your screen turns white you can hear whispers, if it isn't scary, it's annoying to hear and sound is quite important in this game so turning it off might be an option,
Damn why even play the game dude. I stumbled upon this vid and I don’t understand why anyone would want to play this way. How do you even have fun? It seems as though you play the game simply to be the best and not for your personal enjoyment. If anyone sees this comment, play the way you have fun. Don’t feel like you have to take advice from this guy.
I would say maybe. Play how you want. If you feel like it's enough, you can stop anytime. If you feel you need more, get more. Like I said, it's your game, play how you want.
"Don't pick flowers'' Actually, do pick flowers (if you are either Wilson or Willow), Cause it boosts your sanity. Now, if you are starving, then, you might as well wait for some butterflies.....
Sanity is best left at a mid state so you can easily go insane, and still good to leave empty since insanity = nightmare fuel. Nightmare fuel can be used to get the best items in the game such as dark swords, night armor, and several other items. As such, low sanity is good. I usually stay at around 20% sanity where 15% puts you insane, so you constantly go insane then get out of it by killing a nightmare creature. Sanity shouldn't be left up high as in the only places you want to be sane (caves/ruins, bosses) you will quickly go insane anyway.
I made this comment a month ago, and i wasn't really thinking straight, first of all, and second of all, i was still rather new. I didn't know waaaaaay too much, and i didn't know how useful being insane was. Thanks anyways, i completely forgot you could make shadow armor :P
I do all of these things in don’t starve except for running from deerclops, opening sinkholes, destroying stuff I can’t destroy or use again, and using only backpacks because I usually play as Webber so I normally have a lot of spiders to help me
Just one little tiny person's input ... I want to say thank you, first, for some of your helpful tips, but I have to tell you something I hope you take a little to heart ... I kind of crashed after I watched a few of your videos. I was having a lot of fun playing DST but wanted to take it to the next level and learn new skills. Cue your videos. I'm definitely more PVE/Base-building/Resource-mining/crafting type player than someone who's interested in fighting the Big Baddies of a game world. Your rather sour tone about players EXACTLY like me who enjoy all the things you call "mistakes" knocked the wind out of me a bit. It made this game feel like maybe it wasn't for me after all. The thing is ... your videos are really helpful on lots of topics but I say this warmly, a light touch to your arm, a fuzzy little smile, but maybe give some thought about at least acknowledging that not everyone is good at the same things or has the same objectives. I TRIED to start over following your advice but it was a misery campaign lol ... i'm NOT good enough. It stripped away all the joy of escaping to a world with resources and small gains that can be achieved. TL;DR: Thank you for your hard work making videos - please consider softening your tone a little?
I know that every Don’t starve player does things differently but there are a few things I have to disagree with 1. The idea that winter items aren’t worth the resources is absurd by using the Beefalo Hat which you claimed to be a waste of resources you could make it through more than half the day of winter without a thermal stone 2. While collecting flowers does reduce the amount of butterflies that spawn they aren’t your best healing method and using flowers to restore sanity isn’t very effective either It is best to collect flowers so that they can rot in your inventory there they can be used as fertilizer for your berry and grass farms which are necessary for your survival in the game 3.opening up sinkholes is something you want to do since every sinkhole in your world leads to a completely different cave which allows you to get even more resources. 4. While the shadow sword is a very good weapon the ham bat is the better way to go, not only do you not loose sanity but you have a weapon that has infinite durability and while it does rot over time the weapon is EXTREMELY cheap to make due to the fact that it only uses meat and pig skins Despite these things I do agree with most of the other things in the video so, good job 👍

Why do you care about russians so much?
There've been like 10 comments in Russian so far, which means there are a lot of Russian viewers getting misdirected here.

Edgy rick: don’t waste resources on winter items
Also edgy rick: you should use a puffy vest instead of a backpack
Fashion melon is has a glitch that it can keep you warm but not too much. still a glitch.
That is because the Puffy vest is the highest insulation item in the game.
It does 5 times more then a winter hat.
@@polterghast12 troll
But inventory space is important when it comes to this game
@@polterghast12 it's the same for a beef hat though so why not were that instead?
The main mistake is to think that you are making mistakes. Just enjoy the game and keep that belly full.
giedriuqaz I think we are talking about the wrong game
giedriuqaz also if you can't fight for shit dont turn insane
The first nice comment I've seen here
Except the game is hard as balls so making mistakes is fatal.
This things are just tips, to make you not die everytime when you see a small bee, it's not so funny to die every single time when you see a walking tree like me.
I feel like this video is unnecessarily heavily opinionated. If you don't have access to a fashion melon, wearing a winter hat and using a thermal stone will keep you warm longer than just using the stone. You also have some contradicting advice; you say don't pick flowers because you will have less butterfly spawns, but then you say don't be worried about decreasing finite resources in your world. I agree that there are much better ways of getting sanity, but I wouldn't say picking them is a mistake.
Insulation + thermal stone means insulation is the only factor that matters due to how game physics work.
Edgy Rick I don't understand. The thermal stone keeps you warm until it goes tepid, and then from that point on, insulation keeps you warm depending on what you are wearing.
I don't know why this is how it is, but it's how it is, insulation plus heat stone will make you freeze faster then just one or the other, you'd have to ask KCDA on that one...
Usually because after the thermal stone runs out of 'heat' it will start getting colder. This is why they can be placed in ice boxes for summer. Its helpful then, but not in winter.
by your logic, now I feel better about never using thermal stones in dst, as if they make me freeze faster, then that's another reason above being kinda expensive if the durability is worn down hard enough
I like how you say ‘overly expensive battle helmets’ as if they costed 2 green gems and an ancient guardian’s horn and not 2 rocks and 2 gold.
Seriously! Battle helms are one of the TOP reasons to have a wigfrid on the server!

On the backpack thing : Just carry armor with you. You can switch to it on the fly to fight.
The point was more so the magiluminescence and the puffy vest.
Don't be one of the people that carry a log suit. For pete's sake, you are probably carrying grass and logs to make it, so don't waste extra slot.
Ok.
I normally leave excess logs at home, only carrying about 8 at max and I want them to be ready for a campfire.
Hmm, odd, I carry a stack normally.
Staying sane is preferable early in the game, especially when you don't even have a base set up yet, and most people pick flowers as a means of doing this. Flowers are a renewable resource anyways. There will be other chances to get butterfly wings.
incorrect
once you learn to kite and practice it want be so hard
I don't understand why people pick flowers in early game, I prefer people chopping down birchnuts and eating the seeds or making trail mix.

I took the time to read through the majority of the comments here after watching the video. This is the first video from Edgy Rick that I have stumbled upon and I must say, between the blatant disrespect for anyone else and the lack of broader information, I don't think I'll be watching more.
I've been playing DS and DST since day one of beta and I strongly disagree with many of the points he makes here. Which is fine, but after reading the comments it is clear that he seems to think there is no other way to play. This game is amazing and it is made much more fun by the ability to allow players to learn as they play and create a personalized play style.
I am inconsequential on my own, but look at the broader picture on this, Edgy. Any one of your videos could be the first impression on new potential subscribers or other youtubers looking for working partners for bigger projects. Speaking to people in the manner I read over on multiple occasions here makes you look like a bad option. A bad option as a channel, a bad option as a venture partner and a waste of time. Do yourself a favor and clean up your attitude. You are holding yourself back form intellectual discussions and many opportunities for advancement. Which may or may not be a damn shame for other people, but absolutely is for you.
I played DS a little while after it came out, and I played DST before it was out in open beta. I am much better then all of the people in the comments and can back it up: ruclips.net/video/d64Z_eKxP1M/видео.html
Looking at the broader picture is taking two steps back, ever heard of the loud minority? Or the silent majority?

I think that beginners should probably keep up sanity until they can defend themselves against shadows and stuff.
yes
"don't use winter winter hats" you know so you can only go a few meters from your base
Heatstones, use them.
Edgy Rick it took holding 2 thermal stones to get halfway through a small biome
Because you have the winter gear on it makes you freeze faster, get it right before you comment next time.
Edgy Rick yes having more insulation makes you get colder I'm just going to give up arguing with you
Go test it yourself, in regular Don't Starve you freeze faster with insulation and heat stone. Noob.
As someone who is newer to the don't starve community I have to say these vids aren't very helpful as you give a point and back it up with a poor explanation . I understand the basics like kiting, using caves, what items I should avoid using. But when trying to understand the complex parts such as why lower sanity is better to have, the explanations are half of the time unclear and difficult to understand. Maybe I should learn more about the game but that is my viewpoint on this particular video and some others you have made in the past.
P.S I didn't mean to make this comment so long, so thank you for reading it all and have a good day
Just acknowledge it's correct and put it into action and you will learn why.
Edgy Rick I'm fine with it being correct but I want a clear explanation on why it's correct (for future reference)
I try to explain it when I can, some can just be incredibly long therefore equations though, sometimes they would even take upwards of a minute to justify.
Flora Green thanks got it now
these videos are focused more towards experienced players, so it makes sense some of this stuff seems confusing. Flowers boost sanity so a lot of people pick them to get sanity back, but it's best to leave them so they spawn butterflies.
you know, I think the real and unconscious reason people fear sanity loss is because your vision gets grey and blurry, making it much less pleasant to the eye.
Yeah it's annoying and I've seen posts with people saying that's why they always stay sane...
Brigtello I hate those shadow hands

Edgy Rick yes but I want fun not efficiency
TBH the game is better when you don't play so try hard. Obviously if you know what your doing it's an easy game but it's also a boring game. DS is best when your caught of guard. Pack of hounds chasing you then deer clops spawns in and your living off carrots and berry bushes for two days while you kite them. Not when your sat in a day 1000+ base and you can go ark for ten minutes without worrying about death. But each to there own I guess.
Though it would be considered tedious continously being slayed by these wretched obstacles. But these players that are looking to experience the game in depth would love to gain advice on how to live longer.
i tried playing dont starve using all the rules i learned like i was doing a work and it drained out the fun. my tip is to do Science, make a base nad then tri to survive
I can definetely see why some people find it boring when you use these tips but honestly, i prefer having a 300+ day where i can just start massive bunnymen and pigmen wars whenever i want lol.
Yeah, this game is a lot better when you have no idea what you are doing. In one of my first runs, I was insane, and didn’t know how to get my sanity back up. I figured out that that weird looking dark thing was a rabbit. Then my character started saying show yourself. I had no idea what the hounds were at the time, and I thought my character was just saying that because they were going insane. Then the hounds came, and I thought they were a figment of my imagination. Nope. I didn’t have any armor, and was low on health. I died in two hits. But it was really fun! One of my favorite moments of me playing this game. It was a good experience for learning about tons of different things, even though it ended out being tons of mistakes.
@@jadefang2222for me its diferent, i was "Noob" you know my playstyle was diferent in 2018(when i started playing) but then i changed my playstyle because i was already sick being "a Noob" not a Noob exaclty but you know, then in 2019 i was playing diferent but my base was horroble Still and the only diference was: I not die do seasonal bosses anymore but i was not killing Klaus mas bq(because i din't have habit to kill theses bosses) and then in 2020 i upgrade a Lit bit more but this time i was killing Klaus and bq and my base was a Lit bit "cool" you know what i mean, and in 2021 its my final upgrade then you know,

I like that you're the one who says stuff like:
"Oh you should use Pan flute to kill hounds, don't use tooth traps etc. etc. i'm so pro"
Yeah? I think that i rather use the Pan flute to deenrage the Dfly when i'm kiting her and the lavaes are dead.
"Guys i'm very pro, don't use rocks to make battlehelmets, they are very expensive etc. etc. make 80 crockpots"
Expensive? They are literally cost two rocks and two golds and they are available from the beginning while you need an alchemy engine to make football helmet which has 300 less health. On top of that they are cheaper at the beginning of the game since rocks and gold is way more easier to get. And 80 crockpots?! For what the fuck?! The max you need for a full group is 10-15.
The rest of the video were good tips i have to admit that at least
And yes i admit Wolfgang is way better in Combat then Wigfrid because he has more damege but i'm not against having a Wigfrid in my team.
I'm subscribbed to you and i like your videos just don't be a douche ok?
Gonna be a douche because your thoughts are stupid.
Panflute is renewable, not to mention you don't need it for dragonfly if you just do enough DPS.
Two rocks is ~30 seconds of time wasted.
Football helmets are ~10 seconds of time wasted, 3x less time spent than getting just the 2 rocks alone.
80 crockpots, you heard me, 20 for each base, one by the swamp base, one area of them in the ruins base, the desert base, and the pig king base.
Football helmets in DST don't last as long. I'd rather use Wigfrid's Helmet and have extra durability
And I'd rather use slurtle helmets and thulecite crowns? Your point? Wigfrid's helmets are much harder to make then a football helm.
We are talking about early game and what are you talking about for you it's harder to get 2 stones 2 gold then to make an alchemy engine (for 12 stones 4 golds 16 woods) and find pig skin from pig house or from the pig heads or from fighting pigs when you can literally mine 1-2 boulders (gold boulders) to get a helmet that has more durability? Not seeing your point? And yes thulecite crowns and slurtle helmets are better but we are talking about EARLY GAME!
I only ever need ~10 football helmets in one game, 8 if I'm lucky, which one touchstone can give. ruclips.net/video/d64Z_eKxP1M/видео.html
Here's some useful advice contrary to this video:
1) Don't be afraid to pick up flowers if really low on sanity. You can't fight those creatures early on. Butterflies don't yield much health.
2) Make a football helmet. It's easy to make early on and will save you most enemy encounters as it absorbs 70-80% damage.
In winter, all I need is a thermal stone and this baby.
3) Don't fight the deerclops if you don't want to. Noone will judge you like this video guy. Deerclops will despawn in a few days. I use a panflute to make him sleep and he looses interest. I killed him with toothtraps once.
4) Open the cave entrance, except when near your base. Bats are easy to kill and drop Guano which is 1.5 as effective as manure, Which is not easy to get if you can't find beefalos or pigs.
5) Don't waste rocks on walls. I only make 1-2 wall funnels to lure the dogs or other creatures in to kill them with toothtraps. Nothing more.
6) Make a second, smaller base in a cave near its entrance, so u can escape overworld attacks.
7) Keep multiple backpacks. When I go out venturing I use an empty pack to gather resources. Backpack doesn't catch fire so put stuff you wanna save in it, in case you die by fire.
1) Flowers spawns butterfly aka hp, plus an axe can kill nightmare creatures.
2) He was talking about insulation clothing not armor
3) You SHOULD fight deerclops, the eyebrella will make spring into a friendly season instead of an annoying season, plus it gives u cool for summer.
4) Batilisk is just annoying, plus rot is a much better fertilizer, unless u use farms which is useless compared to berry bushes.
5) You could also use walls on dragonfly to rush her early game.
6) Waste of resources and time.
7) Use chests lmao, if you want extra inventory space u could farm krampus.

For 5), NEVER use walls in a tooth trap field, you'll just corner yourself, which is a death sentence.
For 4) Bats, are annoying as fuck, there is no reason to build your base beside a sinkhole.
And finally, for 7), backpacks are flammable, what the hell are you talking about.
@@k2ggers961 @The Golden Toaster (5) I am talking about creating a funnel to kill things with traps, not surrounding yourself. Totally different from what you are referring to.
(4) Again, you misread. I never wrote 'build ur base around a cave entrance'. Dont open a cave entrance' when its near ur base, simple.
(7) They were not flamable when i was playing, havent played it in a year so things might have changed.
Its actually impressive that he manages to get almost all of his 'mistakes' entirely wrong, just wow, caves is about the only one i agree with
"Don't pick renewable flowers. But DO pick non-renewable resources." Makes sense, got it.
because it gives sanity and its best to be insane when you are not fighting anything for the first 20 days
Usually I'll pick flowers as an easy source of rot around the time I'm setting up my base. Having alot of rot for grass and berry bushes is good as if I cant find beefallo it is a nice alternative
I click to see don't starve tips, then get a guide of don't starve together tips, which are useless for vanilla, and they are pretty badly explained and almost completely unjustified.

With the flower one, I feel already let down-
I suggest taking some flowers, since they’re renewable and help you with sanity if you don’t have things ready to fight the nightmares, but not most of them in a certain area where you put you’re base, sine you might have to travel far from it to get butterflies.
Finally! FINALLY someone who actually knows that flowers are easily renewable
Foxy BR I feel honored to be that one person-
1. Using HP from butterfly wings when fighting nightmare creatures you say? Well shit, i should kiss my world goodbye when i attempt that!
2. For some clothing i can actually agree with this one, other than the Eyebrella for summer
3. Running away from deerclops is somewhat a smart idea actually, cause you see, i honestly actually LIKE my sanity, thank you very much (unless i have enough things to fight him, then thats just my fault)
4. i can agree with this somewhat aswell, except for when its far away from my base, cause im pretty sure the last time i checked i dont leave meat on the floor unless i dont need it (AKA its spoiled, and i dont have any fires near to cook it)
5. Farms. thats all i have to say, just farms
6. i dont get it at all, their pretty easily renewable, aslong as you still have Meteor Showers enabled
7. some would think differently, so im just gonna leave this one alone
8. but then again, what if i dont want the armor? that drains sanity when worn, unless taken off but i think i'd rather not have to put my armor back on, and grab the darksword when i charge in again for an attack
9. Caves are useful, so i agree.
10. if you dont have the krampus sack yet (like said in the video) stop being a pussy, you dont need THAT much inventory space, right? (unless your trying to explore the entire world, then okay i guess)
Now, im not trying to shit all over this video or anything like that, but im just trying to point out things that maybe should have been thought about first, but then again people have their own opinions and im just a youtube commenter, what am i to even shit on videos?
1. Nightmare creatures are extremely easy to kite.
2. Eyebrella is useful, but not the clothing I showed in the video.
3. Eyebrella keeps you alive in spring and summer, your sanity is not worth your life.
4. Not sure wtf you are talking about.
5. Farms are cancer, and extremey inefficient.
6. Rocks are renewable at an affixed rate, meteor showers generate about 15 rocks every 7-11 days, that is not enough to keep a 6 person server running.
7. Some who think differently are retarded.
8. Sanity is bad, keep it low.
9. k
10. Magiluminescence or puffy vest are usually better options then a backpack before krampus sack.
There are more ways to generate rocks then just meteor showers, petrified forests and underground cave-ins are two prominent rock sources, rocks are plentiful enough even on a long lasting server.
As a tip for underground cave-in rocks, let moles live around your underground base and collect the rocks, then later when they are roaming you dig up their mole holes for a huge rock/gold/nitre/blue+red gem pay out.
Petrified forests spawn after ~80 days, and then that's only a few hundred rocks.

+Edgy Rick That was the intellectual equivalent of running away. Keep doing that and you will be president one day.
Melons make your pitifull hats worthless, thermal stones make your pitiful melon worthless, your point?
It's not a question of what you use or not... If you say in the video that A is wrong, you should use B!. Then, when someone asks about B you say: "I use D instead". So, the point you make on the video is mute, therefore its of no use. It's a filler. On another comment, people told you: "hey dude, you are contradicting yourself, first you say "don't pick flowers" and further in the video you say "don't refrain from picking non renewable resources for fear of "extinguish" them". Also, *something about this hats and stones*... And you also ran away (intellectually) by mentioning thermal stones again... Me, and I'm assuming Pawel are not questioning your methods, but the thought process and subsequently the validity of what you say. It's called questioning logic. It's the equivalent of asking someone about terrorism and them yelling "SWEEEDEN" instead of explaining why the first thing was said. If the hats are useless, why mention them in the video?

Point proven, Daniel Han! And also Multigamer99's idea ain't so bad at all, I must say.
In DST, lots of people don't know how useful caves can be (I sure didn't at first) when they first start playing, because when you turn caves on, when hosting a game, it will say something like "caves are resource intensive, can your computer handle it?" It scares people off because they honestly don't know. The truth is, you'll only need a few gigs of ram to host a game with a few people that has caves. If you have four gigs or more and decent internet, you'll be fine. Just ask all your friends to come with you into the caves if you want to cut down on resources.

A very poor vid. Seeing this channel once to never again.
Mistake is you coming into earth and especially youtube.
This is more of a pro's guide than a tips n' tricks tutorial
A guide is stringed together better than a tips and tricks.
Mistakes about being afraid being on low sanity and being afraid of using dark sword is spot on. Like every noob I know (including myself some time ago) were doing this.
Mistake about using backpack instead of other useful things - I still do it. It just too hard to part form my things that I always carry around. Maybe one day... Or never.
Btw, you really needed to speed up Deerclops fight. Thanks, I know how to kite him (even though in reality it doesn't always go so smoothly)
Yeah I shoulda sped that deerclops fight up a little bit... but I think it proved my point better this way :P
Quick tip: I totally agree with not picking flowers, but I have a better strategy: go around looking for a natural resource before starting your base, preferably reeds or the pig king, etc. This way while you're exploring, you can pick flowers in a spot where you'll never go back to. Picking flowers, pretty parasol and the garland are all pretty helpful early game.
No, no they are not. Pretty parasol is useless once you get an umbrella, which is extremely easy to craft, and the garland raises your sanity, which is bad because you won't get nightmare fuel.
Fair enough. Thanks. :)

These people are the cause of the ancients downfall, they overused the fuel...

I'm going to stick to my flowers, thanks. And get my own playstyle, it's all about learning and tweaking.
Regardless of what you say I will always pick the flowers in the beginning for rot then go to the bee hives for plentiful flowers to gather butterflies from to replant near my base
Why do you even need the rot in this plan? You can make honey without any rot.
Ugh...the one thing I can fully agree on is people using nothing but backpacks for the chest slot. It always seems like I'm the only one on servers that ditches the backpack altogether, then end up surviving longer. This is even with experienced players that are too spoiled on extra space when they could just preemptively craft items at their base and only carry 6 essential items. (Body armor, head armor, dark sword, small food stack, mining hat, lantern optional)
My worst mistake is watching this video
Your first mistake is following literally any of this mans advice
Picking flowers is extremely useful to have infinite poop.
Use lightbulbs instead, faster, more resource efficient, easier.
Edgy Rick MY ASS. You think, LIGHTBULBS, are straight up more efficient than picking flowers? I’m sure you’ve seen sodium_flouride’s comments about how flowers can be EASILY farmed for rot AND butterflies. That’s not even counting for the krampus spawn after you kill too many butterflies! Unless your base is built underground, YOU. ARE. WRONG. But, so am I. As, there are always better ways. Therefore, nobody should win the argument.
@@ultimatexecutioner8260 but lightbulbs grow back... Flowers need bug nets...
@@andreibobdemei Flowers are naturaly renewable
Actually better source of rot is juicy berries, lightbulbs and flowers have exact same amount of days of spoilage, which is 6 days, and you can plant flowers back tho if you catch butterfly into a bug net
Edgy Rick: Don't worry about destroying nonrenewable resources!
Also Rick: Just don't pick flowers (a renewable resource)
Because it only harms you to do so. It removes a healing source and raises your sanity which is actually a bad thing.
Number 0: starting a world in autumn or spring is a terrible idea. You can get cactus flowers in summer and get the macktusk drops in winter so the best strat is obviously to start in summer or winter.
?!
How am i suppose to get melons if farms are bad? Is there a set piece somewhere?
first: not everyone has a pc they call their battle station. some players have a small, decent keyboard, a pc that can run the game, and they dont lag too much. then, players who dont lag. alot. kiting 2 different nightmares doesn't seem all that safe. flowers are renewable, and most new players probably dont wanna die cuz some youtuber said "sane bad, insane good." unless they're playing maxwell, it seems like a bad idea to them to go insane. they will probably listen to you, be insane, die hundreds of times, and eventually quit the game all cuz "oh how DARE you not know how to kite. how DARE YOU try not dieing, even though you're new and don't know how to do all the epic totally gamer things i do. picking flowers for sanity/health? no, dont do that, they bad, even though there are tons of flowers and renewable" no.wonder you're called edgy, this is the only way you see to play the game. i enjoyed the game WAY better when sane, being attacked by 20 things at once isnt easy. no winter gear thing is also stupid. new players come across this and try it, they would be better off making the gear. they aren't gods at the game, and neither are you. this was the first impression of your channel for me, and this vid is old, but, like, people dont have to be insane all the time. most new players barely know how to kite, most haven't even reached winter alive because they follow your advice. i spent 4 hours trying over and over, thinking "guy good, only listen to him." then eventually, a server actually helped and realized i was new. they told me forget almost everything you said, and actually gave the basics. they told me yes, insane bad sometimes, but not all. they told me everything they knew, suggesting that make some winter gear just incase, burn controlled fires, and thermal stone heated whenever possible. most people who watched this vid and channel are new. keep that in mind. guess they dont call you edgy for nothing.
Dude chill you just had to burn him not turn him to Ash
Edgy rick: you need more nightmare fuel
Me: IM LEGIT JUST TRYING TO FIGURE OUT HOW TO GET THROUGH WINTER, THESE NIGHTMARE CREATURES ARE NOT HELPING, AND I DONT NEED ANOTHER 12 STACKS OF NIGHTMARE FUEL LAYING AROUND!!!
Bird With Human Limbs I kinda feel you and you can also craft nightmare out of evil flowers
He expects all players to be super good at the game
Edgy rick: grass suit and log suit are trash
Also edgy rick: fights literal deerclops with grass suit
This video: "don't pick flowers! Don't waste materials on winter clothes! Go insane to fight nightmare creatures!"
Me, holding a stack of flower petals, wearing my beefalo hat, and breezy vest, while running in terror at the thought of nightmare creatures: "No."
but for the first one you can pick flower for sanity
Tip: PICK FLOWERS WHEN SANITY IS LOW
then what eles do i fight when i run around the map
Good tips, good voice, good layout, good youtube video, but just a terrible youtuber,
So why when he has good tips, good voice, good layout, good youtube video he is a terrible youtuber?
Read the comments and you will discovery it.
Jutub Howna Read the comments..
Better voice, better layout, better pizza.
I know this comment is late but picking flowers is in no way a mistake in my opinion. I normally pick about two stacks when I start a new game. The flowers rot quickly and the rot is amazing for fertilization especially for the first sets of grass tufts and berry bushes in the base. Other then that I agree with the rest of them, especially the last one.
Literally half this video is this guy fighting deerclops
What, who actually fights the deerclops? Spawn a tree giant and make em fight. Easy.
Or teeth traps!
People who cant get em or dont have time for it
Its really hard to find the time for it
what, who actually makes it to deerclops spawn? I die before day 30.
@@enigmaticobserver4413 I dont know if you are serious, or if you are making fun of me, or somebody else
@@pilky_boooi I was not making fun of you or anyone. I was altering what simmikke said to make a one-up of sorts. I generally can't make it past day 30. My most recent run I made it to day 22 then got destroyed because beefalo in heat.
with all due respect, I die every time I go insane during anything threatening. its the combination of nightmare creatures and just about any other threat that does me in.
yea, I can handle 2 nightmare creatures but add anything else into the mix and I'm a dead man.
and then you bloody realize that you actually can plant flowers with buterflies, make a top hat and leave it at 1% for prehistirator, and that nightmres will kill you while u hit deerclops because of sanity drain
I super agree that you should use caves, most servers though don't have caves though. And I know how many people are a little bit scared about going to the ruins, but If you play your cards right, it shouldn't be so bad anymore, I've even got a star caller's staff and a magilumenecence (is that how you spell it?) and taken down the labyrinth (not saying what happened cause spoilers) by day 14.
Did you just assume my mistakes?
MaYbEEEEEEEEEEE
1:50 EpIC MuSIc
That cancerous hang time between points. :/
You underestimate the power of the beefalo hat
Ok. This is all good for the people that can survive long enough to craft dark swords and stuff but for people that can barely get to winter they are going to try to keep their sanity up. So that's why I don't like this.
0:10 yeah i dont care about this one
*I only eat meat*
Cof cof (wigfrid mains) cof cof :v
Who came here to not make mistakes
I thought that flowers are useful for your sanity when you pick them up ?
Sanity = lower is better.
Rick
But why it better tough :0?
It's better due to nightmare creatures dropping extremely valuable loot (nightmare fuel) which can be used to make the best weapons and armor in the game, and many, many other things.
Edgy Rick
K thanks rick
Edgy Rick Im too afraid to actually try cuz i got too far , are they hard to kill? can i fuck them up with a spear?
What's with the nightmare fuel needs when 50% of the player base doesn't explore the caves
Honestly, if you find a bunch of bees and a couple of flowers, flowers are generally infinite, some might argue that you won't have honey, that what the bee boxes are for, take out some nests, make some bee boxes and boom infinite honey, unlike bee nests, these are renewable,and somewhat more efficient.
Nobody wants to fight deerclops with a spear.
Being spooked of having no sanity is normal, your screen turns white you can hear whispers, if it isn't scary, it's annoying to hear and sound is quite important in this game so turning it off might be an option,
Damn why even play the game dude. I stumbled upon this vid and I don’t understand why anyone would want to play this way. How do you even have fun? It seems as though you play the game simply to be the best and not for your personal enjoyment.
If anyone sees this comment, play the way you have fun. Don’t feel like you have to take advice from this guy.
So I farmed nightmare fuel from the ruins I got 5 full chest of nightmare fuel should I still be insane?
I would say maybe. Play how you want. If you feel like it's enough, you can stop anytime. If you feel you need more, get more. Like I said, it's your game, play how you want.
D: D: but the Catcap is highly fashionable!
Fashionable != useful
of course!
Didn't think I'd see deadpools here.
Remember kids, Edgy Rick says to freeze to dearh during the winter! Don't forget to burn your Beefalo hat :)
“Dont pick flowers because you cant get butterfly wings”
Wigfrid and Warly mains: _we cant_
Ohhh break all the pig houses ok that seems smart..
Exactly, just break all of the pig houses and feed the skin to the nearby spiders, it'll be fine.
Edgy Rick
"3 days don't starve days later"
great i lost all of my daily dose of meat and sla- i mean friends
yea that seems cool
Just relocate the pigs to make a pig farm *NEVER* waste the pig skin
"Don't pick flowers''
Actually, do pick flowers (if you are either Wilson or Willow), Cause it boosts your sanity. Now, if you are starving, then, you might as well wait for some butterflies.....
Sanity is best left at a mid state so you can easily go insane, and still good to leave empty since insanity = nightmare fuel. Nightmare fuel can be used to get the best items in the game such as dark swords, night armor, and several other items. As such, low sanity is good. I usually stay at around 20% sanity where 15% puts you insane, so you constantly go insane then get out of it by killing a nightmare creature. Sanity shouldn't be left up high as in the only places you want to be sane (caves/ruins, bosses) you will quickly go insane anyway.
I made this comment a month ago, and i wasn't really thinking straight, first of all, and second of all, i was still rather new. I didn't know waaaaaay too much, and i didn't know how useful being insane was. Thanks anyways, i completely forgot you could make shadow armor :P
LPSFuffyWuffy
Just avoid it in the beginning.
I take sanity in a different way. Me being a wigfrid player (though that doesn't matter) I let insanity come. I am mostly never rushing to go insane.
Completely useless information.
Next time on edgy rick:
Why you SHOULD be cold in winter.
I do all of these things in don’t starve except for running from deerclops, opening sinkholes, destroying stuff I can’t destroy or use again, and using only backpacks because I usually play as Webber so I normally have a lot of spiders to help me
LMAO all these comments about being "forced" to play a certain way. You guys are watching a RUclips video, not being gagged and hung up by your ears.
Keyboard
Wait...
Hey its *keyboard* again voicing as *Edgy rick* oh mah gurd :0 coincidence lol
That is keyboard.
Keyboard how much did rick pay you to say that? But honestly I laughed when I read this
Edgy is kinda of a dick tbh I use to watch hes videos a lot but after looking at the comments and seeing what he says... i lost some respect from him
My friend's keep making the mistake of just not wanting to fight anything and then complaining when they're starving to death in a pig village
Just one little tiny person's input ... I want to say thank you, first, for some of your helpful tips, but I have to tell you something I hope you take a little to heart ... I kind of crashed after I watched a few of your videos. I was having a lot of fun playing DST but wanted to take it to the next level and learn new skills. Cue your videos. I'm definitely more PVE/Base-building/Resource-mining/crafting type player than someone who's interested in fighting the Big Baddies of a game world. Your rather sour tone about players EXACTLY like me who enjoy all the things you call "mistakes" knocked the wind out of me a bit. It made this game feel like maybe it wasn't for me after all.
The thing is ... your videos are really helpful on lots of topics but I say this warmly, a light touch to your arm, a fuzzy little smile, but maybe give some thought about at least acknowledging that not everyone is good at the same things or has the same objectives. I TRIED to start over following your advice but it was a misery campaign lol ... i'm NOT good enough. It stripped away all the joy of escaping to a world with resources and small gains that can be achieved.
TL;DR: Thank you for your hard work making videos - please consider softening your tone a little?
^^^^^^^
You rlly didn't need to spend 1/4 of the video showing a fight with deerclops, I can fight him on my own thank you
I agree this was basically only a flex and I'm not very good and I can easily kite deerclops
I know that every Don’t starve player does things differently but there are a few things I have to disagree with
1. The idea that winter items aren’t worth the resources is absurd by using the Beefalo Hat which you claimed to be a waste of resources you could make it through more than half the day of winter without a thermal stone
2. While collecting flowers does reduce the amount of butterflies that spawn they aren’t your best healing method and using flowers to restore sanity isn’t very effective either
It is best to collect flowers so that they can rot in your inventory there they can be used as fertilizer for your berry and grass farms which are necessary for your survival in the game
3.opening up sinkholes is something you want to do since every sinkhole in your world leads to a completely different cave which allows you to get even more resources.
4. While the shadow sword is a very good weapon the ham bat is the better way to go, not only do you not loose sanity but you have a weapon that has infinite durability and while it does rot over time the weapon is EXTREMELY cheap to make due to the fact that it only uses meat and pig skins
Despite these things I do agree with most of the other things in the video so, good job 👍
