Happy to be in on the ground floor of this run. Most of your runs, I discovered months or years after you did them. So, it’s an honor to be on this expedition with you, sir!
Huh? Why not just play the game brother? It's fun, & much better for your brain than watching...Alpha waves or whatever, hand/eye coordination, problem solving, working under pressure... it's not as good as some other things, but it's fun... maybe give it a try...?
After watching you get screwed left and right with the rabbits and the stones right as you arrived at Trapper's, I know that crack to the dome on the last rabbit was at least a *little* personal! 🤣🤣🤣
man i am new to your channel and new to long dark but you are a tremendous content creator. i have thousands of survival game hours and this game is very different and interesting to me, wanted to learn some more and found a video of yours and now im several videos into this 500 days series. really awesome stuff. right from the jump you have great commentary and thought process for almost everything you do and action you take, even the small nuanced things and it's amazing how helpful it is for someone like myself trying to learn :) look forward to watching more of the series. outstanding content, good luck
Forlorn Muskeg spawn is my favorite and for a long time was my crutch (i restarted till I got it ), because after spawning there I just sprint towards Camp Office at ML and from there I feel safe and secure. Looking forward to this series.
This game is by far my favorite survival game at how it makes me feel. Ive never been more immersed and feeling every mistake and accomplishment i do whilst being the only one to see it is amazing. Youve helped me learn a few new things, so thank you
You are the reason i started interloping, i still die every 3-4 days, tough rn i passed than my revord, and am at day 5, found a hacksaw and going for a hammer, if i dont find in ML i might hit up BR as ive found them there a few timws already. Thx zak for introducing me to interloper, it is really, a new tld experience
I'm starting this journey now with you. I hadn't played The Long Dark for quite a while. I'm currently on my second try and survived a month now (voyager). Really proud of myself, because the first try (and my efforts years ago) went horribly wrong. I think playing a lot of Green Hell definitely trained me to become better.
Yeah, true...but why'd you pick them as opposed to any of these thousands of individual groups of tribal-age peoples that have lived in every part of the world in every century for at least 60k yrs..?
I plan on religiously watching this run, I'm a TLD noob currently doing Pilgrim to learn about the map before doing Voyageur and Stalker, watched some of your videos before, hopefully one day I'll be able to tackle Interloper. Good luck with the new run!
Sounds like you're doing all the ground work in the right order! Don't rush it, and don't get too defeated when ya die. Map knowledge is sooooo so important, so on pilgrim, make sure ya do plenty of traveling! Best luck out there!
@@Sleepyjew Thank you, and while I know "losing" sucks, I've come to terms with the fact that every survival run has to end in death, so that's a start, and as long as a lesson is learned, it's worth it
@@pabloc8808 absolutely. I've got a friend who plays, but they get so upset over untimely deaths that they quit for months at a time over it. Every run though, there's more map knowledge and strategy learned regardless of the outcome.
Thank you man for all the videos. I've been binge watching your vids and I've learned a ton. So thank you my good ser. I'm gonna keep posting stupid comments, just for the algorithm, 'cause you deserve all them views. Thanks mate and Cheers from Finland.
Never played nor heard of this game yet I throughly enjoyed this video and plan to continue watching the series. There is something comforting about witnessing your familiarity with landmarks that look random to me.
This is absolutely one of the best survival games out there. There is a HUGE player base both on RUclips and Twitch. The best part for me personally is that the devs CARE about the game. It is still expanding and still gets regular updates. I have been playing it since 2015, (not constant but still :), and it just does not get old. The art is great and the music, this is the only game that I play with the music turned on, and still find myself pausing to just listen. It is just beautiful both audibly and visually. Hang out with Zac a bit and he will explain lots of the game mechanics. Best of luck to you and I hope you come to enjoy this wonderful game.
My favorite feat is the wind walker feat. The thing in this game that makes me most likely to rage is walking against the wind, so I always choose wind walker (and the mandatory cold fusion lol)
Rewatching this whilst waiting for a new episode to drop. Can’t believe you found 3 hacksaws in your first few days haha. I didn’t find my fist hacksaw till day 80 on my current run 😂
I will show it all from beginning to end :) Glad you like the music. It is a ronroco, and the tune is made for this series specifically by a Bolivian musician.
Been a huge fan of this game since 2015. It's my favorite survival game. I just like to live in the game for as long as possible. It's just got so much depth with things to do/places to go. I sometimes login just to collect wood, cook all my meat in one setting and dry storage it outside and heat a ton of water. Even at beginning I conserve EVERYTHING. I only used two matches for a week or two I just collected a massive wood pile and boiled so much water lol. I emailed them asking to port it to the Switch in 2017, didn't actually think it would happen but now that it's on my Switch I can lay in bed and play with ease! Love this game and check out another one of my favorites Subnautica.
amazing content, i just came back to rewatch from the start so i can harvest more knowledge, to help me survive my current loper run (day 8, PV spawn, been through most of PV, dam, camp office and all the fishing huts, trappers, milton, and now saved in the cave into HRV - there for the hammer, but i'm still missing prybar and hacksaw as well.) initially i was just going to rewatch HRV because i still really struggle with that particular region (never actually made it out alive afaik) and i wanted to see how you tackled it, but then i noticed i can't remember anything from the first episode at all so i'm just going to rewatch all of it. since the series is very enjoyable to watch, but at the same time incredibly educational. well done indeed and very much apreciated, thank you.
update: day 18, still alive and eating cattails, for the most part. had the northern signal fire, getting down was pretty nasty, and unfortunately i had to bonk sketchy with my new hammer shortly after. but luckily that one seems to be quite a smart dog, turned tail instantly, noone was hurt and i left HRV with a hammer, crowbar, hacksaw, as well as bunch of matches and some new clothing. the jacket from the signal was 70%+ by the way, seems to be random, and the cache where you found combat pants was in a different spot and "only" had jeans and food. went to the forge in FM, the weather was terrible all the way and i was stupid enough to carry a bunch of guts and steaks, had to use like 4 matches and got lost at least twice, but eventually i got forging done. sadly didnt have nearly enough scrap, thought i could find more at the forge (there was like almost nothing to break down, gotta remember that), so back to trappers with only 6 arrowheads. grabbed some more saplings and an unfortunate deer to cure at trappers, fixed my gear, crafted rabbit stuff and went to broken railroad for more arrowheads. gonna be a long way home, fingers crossed.
Nice video. Started my first interloper run last day and found last patch made impossible to cut meat from bodies without cut tool. These hacksaws are incredibly valuable now.
I genuinely appreciate your content, I found you about a year and a half ago, I was a preorder guy with the long dark way back in 2015-2016. Every time I see your videos it reminds me of the magical adventures you make yourself in this game. Only thing that could make it better would be a co op for up to 2 players and you both start in different areas of the maps and you can meet up incidentally
Also I know your an expert but if you didn’t know before you open a trunk or a door or harvest somthing, stop moving for just a second and your hunger won’t go down twice as fast
Thank you for your kind comment :) Yes, I did know that: its in one of my tip videos. But it has so little impact that I dont usually adhere to it, except on NOGOA :)
A YT CC I watch a lot did a playthru of TLD over the last few weeks and I just had to install and play again... But I gotta say; I've learned more in the first 30 min of this video than I did in his whole (8ep @35 min each, with light editing) series. I'm just playing Survival on 'normal' while I learn the ropes, but I know from past games that watching a Pro play on Hecken Stupid Hard difficulty is ALWAYS the way to learn a lot!
In memory of the father of the most famous Drow of all, Drizzt Do'Urden. Long may he live, and good pool in the wake of his passing! Cool video, but coolest of all is the name of your channel!
Greetings from Sweden! Thank you so much for introducing me to this game. Thanks to you im now a proud owner of this game and the expansions. You, Sir, just got yourself a new subscriber and a thumps up 🎉
I just died at 390 days and had collected everything and had it stored all between trappers-hydro-pleasant valley on voyager. I was off by mending two more pieces of clothing from getting the achievement for level 5 for all skills. I feel sick 😫 but I’m addicted and will start up yet again another run after I’m done mourning. Love/hate relationship with this game.
despite knowing about the game from the very start of its release (through youtube playthrougs), i just recently got it. today i started trying my hand at the voyager survival run 😊 on the third save, i got a lucky spawn right under the bridge to the dam and i am happy to report i am still alive! you gave me enough confidence to try survival and i just now got why people love dying in this game so much! never really played a survival game with permadeath, it recontextualizes a LOT of how you look at the game!! thank you) gonna watch your runs while autowalking :D
I always head to HRV first now cause there's a chance for a hunting knife if not then hammer. Then either forge or head to ash canyon for backpack. But thank you for the content! Keep it up
Started my "long haul" loper run about 2 weeks ago. Looking forward to seeing how this turns out! On day 78 right now and STILL no mag lens tragically. That's my quest at the moment so we'll see how it goes :)
Thanks so much for this series! I just started playing TLD and watched a lot of your guides. This playthrough is really helpful for seeing you're whole thought process of how to prioritise resources, where to go, etc! I am doing it on pilgrim mode though BC I wanna have a peaceful run but I'm also too chicken and dont want to stress myself out right off the bat 😂
Nice one. What a great spawn, spawning day time is like finding the road to el dorado. And one more thing. We players love early game because the straggle , rabbits not so much.
Zak: “this will attract wolves but that s fine”. Me: “a wolf! Runnnnn” :) oh man i feel like a noob! I just started and there is so much to learn. But it s so cool and relaxing in a way. I did not know i could scare off a wolf w a rock lol
i love ur videos :) rn im too scared to do anything but play on pilgrim, despite having the game for a year or two, but im trying to become more comfortable with higher difficulties by watching these play throughs
I have started a stalker Run because I wanted to explore the new region and I wanted to complete the all skill to max of my previous run, that I've lost. I wish you the best of luck.
I played and am currently playing the long dark but could never do hgiher difficulties, i randomly stumbled onto your channel and i think im going to like it since you seem quite knowledgeable when it comes to the long dark
Hey Zak! I asked a long time ago if you had the VODs recorded for that original 500 day run and if so that you should post them on RUclips. Glad to see you actually started doing it! Sorry, I’ve been gone for awhile 😅 Looking forward to watching this run! Got some catching up to do 🤗
Oh! Wow! Damn man! WOW! Honestly I play this game way over from 2014... Not at this level... Got to 780 days on Voyager, got bored... Gonna try this. Thanks my man..:)
I’m really looking forward to watching your stalker series when that starts coming out. While it’s massively entertaining to watch one of the best players play the hardest difficulty there’s something great about watching you play what I personally play. Love your content my friend
Here i was thinking id try this on voyager but i wanna unlock some more feats first, and then you go and start out on interloper featless, absolute madman!
Wow, this is crazy to see. I bought this game in early access back in 2014/15 and played it for maybe…10 hours and never touched it again. Just forgot about it. I’m gonna have to check this out again!
I haven’t played TLD in a while but I still love your videos, and the streams are great when I catch them. Always gives me the bug to go and start a new run😁
I have done it before, you can see the highlights in the link below :) But... death can always sneak up so there is always risk! ruclips.net/video/hk0q5FtJOgk/видео.html
30:50 yeah, since the new loot table, I have never seen boxes there. also you missed checking the hollow tree in FM near where you cooked the wabbits. although since the update, after three runs, I've never found anything there anymore except a book I think. and thanks for the drop torch trick from menu. i never even thought of that. lol
I've never seen or heard of this game before but one thing I instantly like is how the wolves don't bumrush you like in most games. Just like most other predators, wolves tend to avoid a direct confrontation with prey since the risk of injury is not small and being injured in the wild can be a death sentence. Because humans walk upright, they look really big so unless you give them a reason to, wolves generally won't attack you, especially if you look straight at them. Though tis a bit strange that you can't take the clothes off of the corpses. That's some really useful fabric there and it's not like they need them anymore.
Has anyone ever found anything in a mailbox, e.g.: in Milton? Also, as a relative newcomer to your channel, and someone who doesn't want to watch many hint/ advice videos (by anyone), I am happy you are starting & sharing a new interloper run. TY.
Yass! I'm so here for this! Dude I die on interloper WITH the feats! 🤣INVISIBLE MATCHES!! haha! Good job you hovered. Imagine missing that in loper because the game is mean.
I’ve seen a moose up near the cave entrance from Milton to HRV on several occasions, though not since the patch. I didn’t even know it could spawn near the lake instead until fairly recently
Happy to be in on the ground floor of this run. Most of your runs, I discovered months or years after you did them. So, it’s an honor to be on this expedition with you, sir!
Dang... I found it a little late. I'm 6 months behind now ;)
9 months here@@SalladLimeParsnip
I found it after a year
entirely the same i'm around a year and a half behind on this one XD
Huh? Why not just play the game brother? It's fun, & much better for your brain than watching...Alpha waves or whatever, hand/eye coordination, problem solving, working under pressure... it's not as good as some other things, but it's fun... maybe give it a try...?
Have i ever played this game? No. Will I ever play this game? Probably not. Did i watch this entire video? Hell yeah i did
Why won't you play it? It's one of the greats, which...seems like you already know...so....huh?
I’ve been playing TLD for years… I have well over 1000 hours…. And I just now realised it’s Forlorn musKEG and not musKET…. Why am I like this 😭🤣
Zak I cannot start a successful playthrough without having these series running in the background. Thank you
I bought this because of this dude’s vibe. Coffee and Zak.
Hi. Just wanted to say that your videos have helped with my depression so much and I’m looking forward to the series:)
I am glad the videos have helped - depression is no joke, and I am sorry to hear that you have it. Wishing you all the best!
Absolutely the same here. The Long Dark itself is a very therapeutic game for me, and watching Zak play totally lightens my heart and brain stress.
Matthew posa has a funny channel of camping adventures to help too
ily
Stay strong you got this ❤
After watching you get screwed left and right with the rabbits and the stones right as you arrived at Trapper's, I know that crack to the dome on the last rabbit was at least a *little* personal! 🤣🤣🤣
You've inspired me to put my stalker run on the shelf, and give interloper another try.
1440p capture...... yay, now when zak says "You see that wolf over there" it wont just look like a stone or a bit of fly poo on the screen
Thank you for your videos. You have helped me to stop being terrified of wolves. I feel more confident moving around.
Fr, I can just keep walking even though they walk towards me or i just light a torch
man i am new to your channel and new to long dark but you are a tremendous content creator. i have thousands of survival game hours and this game is very different and interesting to me, wanted to learn some more and found a video of yours and now im several videos into this 500 days series. really awesome stuff. right from the jump you have great commentary and thought process for almost everything you do and action you take, even the small nuanced things and it's amazing how helpful it is for someone like myself trying to learn :) look forward to watching more of the series. outstanding content, good luck

Forlorn Muskeg spawn is my favorite and for a long time was my crutch (i restarted till I got it ), because after spawning there I just sprint towards Camp Office at ML and from there I feel safe and secure. Looking forward to this series.
Way late to the party but I just finished up your misery run, so now on to this run.
This game is by far my favorite survival game at how it makes me feel. Ive never been more immersed and feeling every mistake and accomplishment i do whilst being the only one to see it is amazing. Youve helped me learn a few new things, so thank you
Like forgetting to pack your sleeping bag before leaving camp? That's a fun one.
you are the number 1 Long Dark player for me. Your tips are great! Also pretty good start on this run
You are the reason i started interloping, i still die every 3-4 days, tough rn i passed than my revord, and am at day 5, found a hacksaw and going for a hammer, if i dont find in ML i might hit up BR as ive found them there a few timws already. Thx zak for introducing me to interloper, it is really, a new tld experience
Great video. Really compelling look at a game I've never tried
There’s barely anything better than the start of a new run. Godspeed, Zak!
i hate blackism
Absolutely agree 😄
I'm starting this journey now with you. I hadn't played The Long Dark for quite a while. I'm currently on my second try and survived a month now (voyager). Really proud of myself, because the first try (and my efforts years ago) went horribly wrong. I think playing a lot of Green Hell definitely trained me to become better.
i don't usually like youtube videos but if i can watch you for 1 hour and a half i can def like this video
you are very conforting
As tough as this is imagine how tough Native Americans had to be to survive and thrive in North America for real.
Yeah, true...but why'd you pick them as opposed to any of these thousands of individual groups of tribal-age peoples that have lived in every part of the world in every century for at least 60k yrs..?
@erkl8823 l quess because l am pure evil so l did not mention every single different indigenous just to set you off.
I reckon interloper is harder
I plan on religiously watching this run, I'm a TLD noob currently doing Pilgrim to learn about the map before doing Voyageur and Stalker, watched some of your videos before, hopefully one day I'll be able to tackle Interloper. Good luck with the new run!

@@pabloc8808 absolutely. I've got a friend who plays, but they get so upset over untimely deaths that they quit for months at a time over it. Every run though, there's more map knowledge and strategy learned regardless of the outcome.
@@Varrxion What do you know, that's the mistake I'm currently making lol
@@pabloc8808 Still going strong?
You're so lucky :D, not even a minute and already a hacksaw + matches !
Thank you man for all the videos. I've been binge watching your vids and I've learned a ton. So thank you my good ser.
I'm gonna keep posting stupid comments, just for the algorithm, 'cause you deserve all them views.
Thanks mate and Cheers from Finland.
Almost 200 hours in and the wolf thing is news to me. I feel pretty new after that display. Awesome content man.
Never played nor heard of this game yet I throughly enjoyed this video and plan to continue watching the series. There is something comforting about witnessing your familiarity with landmarks that look random to me.
Is a cool game 🐺
This is absolutely one of the best survival games out there. There is a HUGE player base both on RUclips and Twitch. The best part for me personally is that the devs CARE about the game. It is still expanding and still gets regular updates. I have been playing it since 2015, (not constant but still :), and it just does not get old. The art is great and the music, this is the only game that I play with the music turned on, and still find myself pausing to just listen. It is just beautiful both audibly and visually. Hang out with Zac a bit and he will explain lots of the game mechanics. Best of luck to you and I hope you come to enjoy this wonderful game.
Soooo so stoked for this new series man! Thanks for your commitment to the game and the community. Your videos have helped me a lot in game and irl.
My favorite feat is the wind walker feat. The thing in this game that makes me most likely to rage is walking against the wind, so I always choose wind walker (and the mandatory cold fusion lol)
Correct opinion.
Rewatching this whilst waiting for a new episode to drop. Can’t believe you found 3 hacksaws in your first few days haha. I didn’t find my fist hacksaw till day 80 on my current run 😂
Holy, did u check the dam tough? I mean, is rare to NOT find one there.
more enjoyment if you watch this video in a cold place😍
Love the Spanish guitar. If you die, please show us, because that is how it goes for a lot of us!
I will show it all from beginning to end :) Glad you like the music. It is a ronroco, and the tune is made for this series specifically by a Bolivian musician.
you are amazing at this game, i have almost a thousand hours in game and i still learn stuff from you almost every video. keep up the great vids.
Been a huge fan of this game since 2015. It's my favorite survival game. I just like to live in the game for as long as possible. It's just got so much depth with things to do/places to go.

Been hunkering down in the trappers cabin! I got the spelunkers lantern and barbs rifle on a run and am nervous to loose them lol
Me: oh crap, a bear! Zak: oh nice, a bear!
That was a really good start, only thing you weren't incredibly lucky with was clothing. But there's still 497 days to find something warm to wear!
amazing content, i just came back to rewatch from the start so i can harvest more knowledge, to help me survive my current loper run (day 8, PV spawn, been through most of PV, dam, camp office and all the fishing huts, trappers, milton, and now saved in the cave into HRV - there for the hammer, but i'm still missing prybar and hacksaw as well.)

Greetings from Sweden!
Thank you so much for introducing me to this game.
Thanks to you im now a proud owner of this game and the expansions.
You, Sir, just got yourself a new subscriber and a thumps up 🎉
I just died at 390 days and had collected everything and had it stored all between trappers-hydro-pleasant valley on voyager. I was off by mending two more pieces of clothing from getting the achievement for level 5 for all skills. I feel sick 😫 but I’m addicted and will start up yet again another run after I’m done mourning. Love/hate relationship with this game.
Oof that hurts! But you will get there again! New adventure :)
yay! so glad that you're documenting your main run and sharing it with us. we appreciate it so much!
I just found this series, and subbed before i even heard a noise. The name alone deserves it.
despite knowing about the game from the very start of its release (through youtube playthrougs), i just recently got it. today i started trying my hand at the voyager survival run 😊
on the third save, i got a lucky spawn right under the bridge to the dam and i am happy to report i am still alive!
you gave me enough confidence to try survival and i just now got why people love dying in this game so much! never really played a survival game with permadeath, it recontextualizes a LOT of how you look at the game!! thank you) gonna watch your runs while autowalking :D

My One Stop Shop for all my TLD info
Started my "long haul" loper run about 2 weeks ago. Looking forward to seeing how this turns out! On day 78 right now and STILL no mag lens tragically. That's my quest at the moment so we'll see how it goes :)
Still doing well with it man?
good luck
Iv had the game for a while. Iv played it on and off. I find it extremely enjoyable to play and love watching you game. Thank you. I subbed.
A great start to a great series
Thanks so much for this series! I just started playing TLD and watched a lot of your guides. This playthrough is really helpful for seeing you're whole thought process of how to prioritise resources, where to go, etc!
I am doing it on pilgrim mode though BC I wanna have a peaceful run but I'm also too chicken and dont want to stress myself out right off the bat 😂
Nice one. What a great spawn, spawning day time is like finding the road to el dorado.
And one more thing. We players love early game because the straggle , rabbits not so much.
Can’t wait to binge this! Just found your channel today, love this game and you seem like the master!
Thank you! Hope you enjoy the series and have a great survival run yourself :)
Zak: “this will attract wolves but that s fine”. Me: “a wolf! Runnnnn” :) oh man i feel like a noob! I just started and there is so much to learn. But it s so cool and relaxing in a way. I did not know i could scare off a wolf w a rock lol
This man is an elite tld player. learned so much from just this one video. subbed!
i love these videos so much please never stop making them!!
Damn, it’s nice that people still play this game. It’s so underrated. Subscribed
I enjoyed Wintermute,I got the game for the story,I probably cannot survived for 10 days in the sandbox 😂
you can aim at a wolf with stone while torch is burning and it runs away? whaat? man you are a genius!
definitly a interesting series
am going to start today watching it :3
i love ur videos :) rn im too scared to do anything but play on pilgrim, despite having the game for a year or two, but im trying to become more comfortable with higher difficulties by watching these play throughs
Really love your content. It's amazing to have on in the background while I'm working. Now I want to do another run on TLD now. I blame you 😆🤣
Love your channel and series.
Interloper is so hard for me because I always get bad spawns with no way to start a fire, lol
I have started a stalker Run because I wanted to explore the new region and I wanted to complete the all skill to max of my previous run, that I've lost. I wish you the best of luck.
Started playing a year ago. I hope this game becomes successful but remains a niche thing. I like our small little community.
I played and am currently playing the long dark but could never do hgiher difficulties, i randomly stumbled onto your channel and i think im going to like it since you seem quite knowledgeable when it comes to the long dark
Thank you. Hope you enjoy the videos and playing TLD :)
Hey Zak! I asked a long time ago if you had the VODs recorded for that original 500 day run and if so that you should post them on RUclips. Glad to see you actually started doing it! Sorry, I’ve been gone for awhile 😅 Looking forward to watching this run! Got some catching up to do 🤗
Never seen TLD videos with this many views in such a short amount of time. Your doing wonders for the community, keep it up. :)
Oh! Wow! Damn man! WOW!
Honestly I play this game way over from 2014...
Not at this level...
Got to 780 days on Voyager, got bored...
Gonna try this.
Thanks my man..:)
I rarely find playthroughs of tld tht i enjoy on youtube but im loving this so far! ❤
Thank you! Glad you like it :) I narrate when I can
I’m really looking forward to watching your stalker series when that starts coming out. While it’s massively entertaining to watch one of the best players play the hardest difficulty there’s something great about watching you play what I personally play. Love your content my friend
Here i was thinking id try this on voyager but i wanna unlock some more feats first, and then you go and start out on interloper featless, absolute madman!
Wow, this is crazy to see. I bought this game in early access back in 2014/15 and played it for maybe…10 hours and never touched it again. Just forgot about it. I’m gonna have to check this out again!
I’m so excited for this run! Can’t wait to experience it with you. Thank you for committing to 500 days.
I haven’t played TLD in a while but I still love your videos, and the streams are great when I catch them. Always gives me the bug to go and start a new run😁
I've always wondered what would happen if you shot a moose with the bow from a snow shelter at fairly close range.
Really love the start to this series. Let’s go part2!!! You don’t seem very worried about making it 500 days.
I have done it before, you can see the highlights in the link below :) But... death can always sneak up so there is always risk!

Cheer from Korea, i hope it goes well!
Zalnafein is 100% my favorite character in ra salvatores written work
My god was I struck with nostalgia when I saw your username! Read those books 25 years ago o.O
Those matches you find on day 1 at High Blind have been there since the Far Territories at least 7 / 7 times i started in Forlorn Muskeg.
Yes they are guaranteed afaik, though the invisibility is clearly a bug :)
30:50 yeah, since the new loot table, I have never seen boxes there.
also you missed checking the hollow tree in FM near where you cooked the wabbits. although since the update, after three runs, I've never found anything there anymore except a book I think.
and thanks for the drop torch trick from menu. i never even thought of that. lol
I’ve seen a backpack there at least one run since the update. But I’m probably already at 15 loper runs since the update, so could be uncommon now
This is exactly what I’ve been wanting from you for ages will watch every episode!!!!
I found a striker to make fires. First time i saw one but its awesome. Not having to use matches is great or to just save them up.
Lucky start. But you don't need the luck. Looking forward to the run.
I make plans for the future throughout my runs as well but they are all prefaced with "If by some miracle I am still alive"
I've never seen or heard of this game before but one thing I instantly like is how the wolves don't bumrush you like in most games.
Just like most other predators, wolves tend to avoid a direct confrontation with prey since the risk of injury is not small and being injured in the wild can be a death sentence.
Because humans walk upright, they look really big so unless you give them a reason to, wolves generally won't attack you, especially if you look straight at them.
Though tis a bit strange that you can't take the clothes off of the corpses.
That's some really useful fabric there and it's not like they need them anymore.
Its a great game. Grounded in realism to a certain degree and has a long learning curve, but you can play it however you want. Highly recommended :)
Has anyone ever found anything in a mailbox, e.g.: in Milton?
Also, as a relative newcomer to your channel, and someone who doesn't want to watch many hint/ advice videos (by anyone), I am happy you are starting & sharing a new interloper run. TY.
You can find newspapers in them. I have also found chocolate. On lower difficulties I have found bullets. Thank you for your kind words :)
i have loved the long dark for so long, i love your channel, truly a great take on such a lovely game.
Great start! Loving the new Video Length.
Good luck man! May you get some nice loot, stay warm & fed.
Ur voice is so calm it helps me sleep...
Yass! I'm so here for this! Dude I die on interloper WITH the feats! 🤣INVISIBLE MATCHES!! haha! Good job you hovered. Imagine missing that in loper because the game is mean.
It was Lilly. I love wintermute I'm playing it on my second channel.
Man congrats I've tried so many times 2 make it to 500 days and u make It look easy nice job
Haven't played this game in years. It looks so good now. Great video mate :)
I’ve seen a moose up near the cave entrance from Milton to HRV on several occasions, though not since the patch. I didn’t even know it could spawn near the lake instead until fairly recently
