As a wendy main who has played with other wendy mains, none of us are chill. We are all bloodthirsty beasts awaiting our next victim. Bees? Extinct. Beefalo? Extinct. Nothing escapes our grasp. Either that or they're 10 years old lol
For Webber, I think that he is a very popular character among newer players because when a new player boots up the game and gets to the character select screen, among the relatively "normal" looking human characters, they see an anthropomorphic spider and think: "that's wacky! I wanna try that!" Also, let alone the fact that most new players won't have Wortox, Wurt, or Wormwood unlocked from the start, making Webber the only "wacky" character of the starting bunch.
A pub session with woodie for me consists of: - Disappear for 2 days. - Return with enough wood to last us until spring - Disappear for another 2 days - Return with minerals and rocks - Realize there's no consistent farm because everyone was relying on the wormword that left before he could finish setting up - We are already out of rocks - Despair
This sure sounds like that one Woodie that joined when I left the server public accidentally. Chopped every tree on the Constant down and couldnt get a treeguard to spawn
As a Woodie main, constantly disappearing for 2 days straight to get resources is pretty accurate, often times I'll be gathering an excessive amount of berry bushes and manure, pig skin and meat, or growing twigs to bring home and sort of help going unnoticed.
The Wanda mains I've met are just like her, anxious and forgetful. They rush ruins and bosses (most likely dying), until they arrive at the late game, where her teleporting capabilities are wasted since they forget to bring an important item, such as the key to the atrium gate, a no-eyed deer horn to Klaus, etc. Don't even get me started on their inventory management
As a wanda (and webber) main, this is so true lmao. A lot of times, when I go to base to prepare for stuff, my mind goes completely blank and forget why I went to base in the first place And yeah, inventory management is a nightmare
I mean... I am a wanda and Wendy main but I just be making my friends get me stuff for the ingredients to make clocks that I sell to them Backstep watch cost 10 gold pieces Second Chance watch cost is a Ageless watch. Time pieces cost Cooked Meat and nightmare fuel. Yes I am a hard working Wanda making money and no I didn't waste my gold on duMB stuff misclicks 56 times accidentally crafting 56 FREAKING SCIENCE MACHINES REEEEEE
As a Wes main I can confirm that I am a borderline cryptid when in multiplayer. I kill not just because I have insatiable bloodlust but because I need food to fill this mime's seemingly bottomless stomach, and my only other option would be to eat my fellow players out of house and home. I'm convinced you have to be somewhat deranged to be a proper Wes main.
As another fellow Wes main I have to say this is pretty spot on lol. Except I tend to also make balloons everywhere and feel bad when people accidently die from them 😂
Looking at the comments, no one mentions “As a Winona Main”. It really shows that Winona mains are a “functionally extinct species”. So as a Winona main, Winona sadly gets a lot of negativity from people. I remember there were these people who said they didn’t like Winona because of her hunger penalty to crafting, it’s “too harsh and you get penalized for playing normally”. Heck, one of them forgot they toned it down one update later into her rework, and then mistook it as loses hunger faster from crafting. One person even told me to never bother playing as Winona.
Winona is a really underrated character, as a main of engi, many people doesn't know the full potential of her, and don't even bother to play with her, just because the catapults are "expensive", as someone who has done FW on the first winter with friends, Winona is a rampage vs the skeleton boi, wooven shadows are not an annoying thing anymore, and helps alot with the dmg, and well, in long term words, if you know how to place statues you can make: houndproof setups, spider and varg farms. You can make setups for bq and dfly, and even farms for the shadow pieces to kill as much knights as you want, and going again to the point of the cats being "expensive", rocks are extremely easy to farm, you have the mosaic, rocky biomes, oasis and dfly desert, stone fruit, the stalagmite in the caves and petrified forests, but yeah, she's just a character that you take, make the things she's good for and then swap to, idk, Wolfgang, Wanda or WX.
As a Maxwell player, I can say it's true, I too use this game as a form of escapism, and the reason for Maxwell is because that sense of control that one profoundly miss in real life is relieved for having mindless puppets do your job (even tho they keep mining my decorative marble trees) and the false sense of accomplishment from surviving with a low health pool, but at the end of the day, we can be kings, but we are just another piece of the board. Also, every main Maxwell I see waits anxious for their rework, even tho he probably will be the last one
Don't get me wrong, I love not worrying about my sanity and that I don't have to carry a pickaxe or axe around and that I can farm wood, rocks and shadow creatures all at the same time but there is a lot of end game loot and feature that dose nothing for him.
@@Mr_Vol yeah, like the new enlightened crown, I love the new boss but the crown goes off Everytime I use a shadow puppet so it has limited use for Maxwell, and also Id like that the shadow duelist were a viable option to use
As a server host, I gotta say there’s a other stereotype for Wendy, that being the players have this bizarre mindset that they just can’t die. “Let me and Abigail handle it” they say as they charge the day 100 hound wave by themselves and die. But yeah, that’s a stereotype, I know a good amount of Wendy mains aren’t that way so no need to pull out the pitchforks
for me, the wilsons i've found are kinda the midgame guys, that have experience on the game and will support a base but unaware of some of the "lategame" stuff like moon island or ruins
I play Wilson a large amount of the time, as I don't wanna play as someone with downsides, upsides, etc, and spend most time alone. I could probably get a light source before night if its the start of dusk if its Autumn.
The life of a typical wormwood main: Join a random server Ask/find where the base is Take control of their farm (if they have any) Grow enough giants to build a rick astley statue Leave the server Repeat the previous steps
Giant crops until 3 fridges are full of food, everyone leaves and you're left with more food even a blooming wormie could ever eat. Sigh and do it again.. and again
I played a server where our Wigfried was super in character, talking about how she will go out and slay the foul winter beasts for our sustenance. I should have appreciated her more because the rest of us were just screaming on a freezing boat like a pack of fools.
nailed it with Wigfrid, I do in fact willingly run into worse case scenarios and back with the only consequences stemming from not bringing enough helmets
exactly, me taking a half durability helmet and no healing to the ruins, saying i'll heal from combat and ending up fully insane and starving before i even get there
one time i legit yelled "i don't need to be careful, i'm the almighty wigfrid!" and instantly got killed because i didn't bring enough helmets, that happened twice
As a Wigfrid main, I started playing her because I was overly cautious in the game and wanted to be able to fight things without overthinking it. I think I'm in the sweet spot between that and recklessness right now, but eventually I'll probably become yet another Wigfrid stereotype
I got good at the game once I started playing wigfrid. She forces you not to be afraid of the world, and once you learn that you can go back and play the other characters a lot better.
@@flamingfurball3316 but if you get stuck at wigfrid,you will be a noob forever that only knows how to play wigfrid but nothing else,risky for especially newer players
You forgot the webber stereotype of amassing a warhammer level of armies over the entire first autumn only to then be able to use the said army whenever they felt like it to kill any boss they want while turning the entire map into the state of a constant warzone
I made private world where me and my brother and play together. I play as Webber/wurt while my brother plays as any human characters and we just wage war before Webber’s rework it was basically rigged if I picked Webber because I was unable to get spiders from the cave alive
The intro is so true, Wilson players are unpredictable as hell, it might have disappeared and be noobing around or it might be killing ancient guardian right as we speak. Playing a non-overpowered character in order to limit your power is the biggest flex ever.
as a wilson main, i also find that a good chunk of us are chaotic comical occasionally gentleman-like bastards i once started a science cult full of wilsons (which died because i didnt amass enough wilsons) and we were ALL exactly this. especially the one guy. fabulous
As a Wilson main I actually tend to be the opposite with the beard hair. I have had players shake me down for my beard hair especially around winter's feast. I cannot tell you how many times I have been handed a razor and demanded to shave. I also generally play with two Wortox mains and they do indeed choose to be chaotically mischievous. Tho I have been told by them that I am the dark one. It's not completely my fault I seemed to have formed an alliance with the Terrorbeaks who actively prey upon one of the Wortox players.
as a walter main who associates with other walter mains tbh all of that was correct except yall missed the part where the reason we even started playing walter in the first place is just cause he's absolutely adorable and we love the character. ive never met another walter main who doesnt have a strangely large amount of knowledge on walter's lore specifically. like, did you know walter's mom collects niche lamps??
I am a wilson main and i look down on walter players especially unskinned walters if i look at them i get into a whole fight with them filling their dogs with manure trolling them
I think a lot of people gravitated towards Webber when they first started playing was because he stands out. All the other non-DLC characters look rather human, with the exception of WX. The part where Webber gains more attention though is probably how the entirety of him is covered in black fur, which compared to everybody else that is either a dullish orange or some pale skin tones, really stands out. Another thing is some people prefer non-human characters. Not all are furries, Im sure some just dont like humans or something idk, but that compared with his pitch black fur lures people in. I still main Webber because of his personality and how stupidly easy it is to get infinite meatballs for the gang.
my favorite thing about wilson players is how often i encounter ones that have no clue what other characters do XD like they know everything about the game, mastered combat and survival but then get confused when i tell them i cant heal as wanda
As someone who used to be a new DST player I know why most newer players choose Webber as their main; Because monsters are cooler than humans and are too new to have enough spools or just not being into the game enough to buy it
For Warly : knows the entire cookbook, roleplays as Gordon Ramsay, farms 24/7. For wigfrid : uses all the resources available in the base to make an insane amount of spears and helemts. For wanda: makes jokes about time like it s rewind time, time goes poof, etc.
I can't spend money on NFTs, all of my money goes into seasonings that ruin the food, but will hopefully buff peoples attributes. Spicy jelly makes people strong in game, so why does it only make my friends gag and throw up?
Actually, as someone who's played on a lot of pubs I've found that Wormwood's have the same issue Webber's do, in that they are almost always total newbies playing a challenge character for some reason. Wormwoods specifically are too scared of death to try combat, and will do silly things from tilling the ground before planting because "it makes the crops grow big" to not picking any of their crops because they're "waiting for the crops to grow big." If anything I'd trust my local Wurt or Warly to know how to farm with the new plots way more than I would a Wormwood XD Oh, and Wendy's are either complete newbies also OR are battle-hardened wise souls with more than 1000 hours, a butterfly farm at base they'll afk at, 90 monster meat in the fridge, and honey coming out of their ears. There is no in-between. Great video btw!
I'm kinda new at this game and confirm in the case of wendy there is no in between. I just went from having no game plan immediately to having everything to sustain an army in a few days
As someone who has mained wendy since the first time I played her, I can tell you from personal experience that both of these stereotypes are absolutely correct. When I started I was obviously a newbie, but once I got good at the game I stuck with her because I like her. Also I like being the funny "oh look it's a girl with a negative damage modifie but she's kiting like every boss ever"
It’s kind of surreal seeing how big the Dont Starve fanbase is compared to how it was when it all started. It gives me so much nostalgia that I just play as Wilson lmao xdxd I learned everything with him, so I’m used to it.
As a Webber main, you're completely right. I'm not new to the game, but when I was, I picked Webber because of his cool character design. Since then, I've never let go of them. Not that I actually know how to properly use the character, but because they look cool lol
Willow players tend to be very fashion oriented tbh. Whenever I play myself as Willow and or see others - they always try to dress up SMASHING. Since Willow likes clothes that much from the Clothe Tab it does kinda reflect on how that goes. Otherwise they become Nightmare Fuel farms.
I literally bought 4 outfits with real life money lol. Willows outfits are so nice and she looks so cute. I also just eat glommer goop for health and big Bernie lol. I’ve never even seen a Willow a grief. I’ve seen a Walter grief then blame it on me though (the Walter was banned)
My friend mains Willow and it's her goal to look as ridiculous as possible, which is a form of fashion in its own right I think. She only burned our base down once, by accident of course.
"Wormwoods are usually the backbone of a base's food production, at least when they aren't busy being a Living Log printer". Yep, hit the nail on the head with that one. So. Many. Logs...
I’d say there’s actually 3 types of Wilson players. The Absolute Noob, The Chad (mentioned in the video), and finally The Funny Science Man. The Absolute Noob: This Wilson player has just started their adventures in the constant, having absolutely no clue what’s going on or how to survive. They do try their very best and give it their all, but they inevitably die to something they were unfamiliar with. The Chad: [WILSON SEGMENT FROM THE VIDEO YOU JUST WATCHED] The Funny Science Man: These Wilson players are a rare find. They play Wilson because they love and relate to him as a character, and will go so far to claim that they are the “Physical Embodiment of Wilson” and will change their profile pictures and names to reflect that. They are either trying out strange, unheard of strategies (that can only end in failure) purely for the sake of “SCIENCE” and to test out their theories on the game, or restarting autumn for the millionth time because they didn’t feel completely satisfied with their progress and winter preparation. They have written out multiple algebraic formulas in an effort to appear smart, and to optimise their time and crockpot efficiency.
lmao finally, someone that acknowleges my kind funny science men are more common than you think. i met two others just in the 24/7 klei canada server. we did random shit "for SCIENCE" and somehow made a pretty good base and had a good time, until both had to leave and i put up signs in memory of our existence there
@@spooktspeekpov you are me a wilson who does his SCIENCE and go to the archive on day 19 not having a thermal stone not enough food and a wanda teling you, you need to wiat til spring and ignoring her compliety . After that do some peral taks to get the lore chest bc it mskes a funny noice. Its realy cool to play him bc evryone dosent expect anything from you . Note wiht his skilltree he can tame beefalos realy good just get a Stack of wood from pigs and you have 40 twiks
As someone who's only very recently started playing DST, I feel like I can more or less see why newcomers gravitate towards Webber, or at least give a few reasons as to why, such as: - Webber's max HP and Hunger being a bit higher than most, "Oh, if I take this guy I'll live through stuff a bit more easily!" - Webber starting with stuff in hand, "Not sure how to use this, but it must be helpful if he's got it from the start." - Webber's appearance and personality, both for the fact that he's a pretty noticeable weirdo out of the non-DLC cast and the fact that he's frankly adorable and seems like a sweet kid. Definitely not true for probably most, but that's just what I think. Edit: Forgot to say it, but there's also the whole "lack of experience"-thing, where they don't realize how bad Webber's downsides actually are or don't realize that they even exist at first.
I’d add that some wormwood players will have a surprisingly good knack for pvp, Wheeler characters are always running on around 2-3 shots of caffeine, Wanda players are nervous wrecks, and Webber players are gullible but in a cute way.
Our usual dst group is a Wilson that thinks he’s a viking and is obsess with the moon, a Winona who is scared we’re gonna run out of rocks for catapults and must have an organized chaos at base, and me, the Willow who make sure EVERYTHING is symmetrical and who forgets to eat because I was doing five things at once :) it’s a lot of fun!
I think you're pretty spot on with Webber. When I first started playing the game I gravitated towards him (although I did play him a lot in solo Don't Starve as well so I dunno if it counts) because I really love his gameplay mechanic and the spiders in DS look adorable. One of my friends mains Wendy and is just a ball of chaos that always asks either one of us to go along to help take down a beehive, hunt down tracks or just kill /anything/. And my other pal is a pretty silent WX/Woody main that always ends up dying first despite being the most careful and calculated out of all of us.
Heehoo webber main go brr. The reason why a lot of new players gravitate towards Webber, I'd say, is because he looks the edgiest out of the entire cast by default. He's the only monster that can be labelled as "creepy", so that attracts the crowd that likes edgy/creepy/monstrous/abnormal characters. Some people just like being scary monsters instead of boring humans, myself included. As for the furries, lord help me.
as a maxwell main, often i will just join a server, stay for just long enough to make a shadow manipulator, get bored, and then leave i have no idea if this is common for anyone else, but that's how i play
I’m a Webber main and I’m definitely not new to the game, I just find his gameplay loop a lot more fun than other characters. And he’s really good for fighting bosses if you have the spiders for it
@@blacklight683 that's not an issue anymore! You can make passive spider nest near base or just set the spider dens a bit further from normal base and you're golden. JUST. ALWAYS. CHECK. IF. THERE. IS. RANDOM. MEAT (or eggs). ON. THE. FLOOR.
19:57 actually it's very accurate as wurt player i don't even remember what i was doing longer, explaining why wurt is not a bad character or actually playing as wurt
As a wirkerbottom Main I agree with the fact that I spend a lot of time at the base, but I mainly dedicate myself to mapping the map, gathering large amounts of resources like light bulbs and for some reason I always end up teaching things about lore or gampley to less experienced players in the game. Sorry for the Bad inglish, i'm AM usig a traslator
English is good... I am also a Wickerbottom main. I like exploring the map and gathering resources but you will never catch me speed running the boss monsters. I enjoy watching my enemies fight amongst themselves and will try to set that up so I can get their drops without taking damage.
how. did you manage. to describe me _perfectly_ with Wilson. i haven't been here since the very beginning but you could ask me what the origins of the Pelontrix (AKA Shadow Wilson) are and i could be able to tell you. you also perfectly described my best friend who also really likes Wilson, this is incredible
Dont really know what the wendy thing was. But yeah, i rely a lot on Abigail. I like not having to deal with swarms of enemies. Specially since I play a lot of shipwrecked and she helps me dealing with mosquitoes and poison snakes
As a Wortox main, i do infact willingly kill everything that moves to satiate my incurable sense of bloodlust while i get my neurons activated and simulated by seeing something that has health points. Mainly because i was mistreated and malnourished by my mother figure, and i like to take my anger out on everything that moves. (mainly butterflies) I sometimes take a break from exterminating the ecosystem for souls that ill use up for a dumb reason to playing Wes to satisfy my masochistic tendencies, or play Maxwell to have a sense of control over my life with mindless puppets that obey what you do
I’ve been a Wigfrid main since before the multiplayer version came out, and your description is pretty much on the money, but the funny thing is that I specifically started playing her because I usually suck at combat in most video games, and her perks allowed me to get out of my comfort zone. I’m still really avoidant of combat in pretty much every other game, but as soon as I start playing as Wigfrid the power immediately goes to my head.
I do have a few minor foibles. Wilson: In addition to what you've said, I've also encountered the exact opposite. People who have literally never played the game before, and die on the first night. Willow: They get blamed for everything. The character's personality is supposed to be crazy and violent, so people assume that's how she's supposed to be played, but most actual people I've seen play her are generally helpful and benign, if a tad short lived due to nightmare fuel greed. Wendy: I don't know about her, but Abigail mains are vicious. They stay agitated all the time, just to murder every single innocent butterfly. Wanda: I've never actually encountered one, but the Second Chance Watch just has too much trolling potential.
Webber was literally the first character I played when I got DST. I don't know why, but I figured the tradeoff of pigs for being able to hang with some spiders would be useful or something. Highly accurate.
As a Warly main... Your description was quite accurate. I always take care of the food and I either manage with it or not. I also always ask my friends if they are hungry beause they never really focus on their starving so yes, I take care of other players. But at the same time... I'm kind of attached to that character :')
As a person who likes to try something new every day. I was playing as Webber, I set up some spider nests and a friend (who was a Wendy main) asked to join, I let them in and said they could do whatever they wanted. I ended up with 0 spiders, a mad Webber, and a happy Wendy. With her meatballs.
Wheeler mains evolve throughout time. At first, unlocking Wheeler seems earned. It's the last character in the EXP wheel and whether you farmed it by using Woody and Lucy to spam werebeaver transformations and let spiders nibble at your fur until you pass out for 70 days, or actually played normally, it still feels like a big accomplishment. By that far in the solo game, you either- A. Used the wiki tons and know a lot of DST information that doesn't apply to the game. Your favorite characters are Woody, Wolfgang, and Wigfrid due to their popularity in the community and general ability to rip and tear through anything with little to no thought. Woody has one of the most vital tools ingame, an axe, and it has infinite uses. His werebeaver form can tear down houses, rocks, trees, you name it, he can break it. Wolfgang can easily rush... anything. Give him proper gear and a fighting spirit, and boom, they fall like dominoes. Wigfrid is about the same, except she requires less food, and more resources to spamcraft helmets until her inventory (backpack too, unless it's a log suit, which is a surefire sign of a bad Wigfrid and overall bad combatant) is full of them. B. Saw the solo game was on sale, fell in love with Reign of Giants and decided to buy all the DLC, unlock all the characters and create a megabase. You most likely main WX-78, Webber, or Wilba in Hamlet, because they're great for creating large safe spaces to house your farms. Wilba gets it easy, her safe space is a whole ass biome. WX-78 mains usually abuse the world generation options and create worlds full of pigs and clockworks. The pigs kill the clockworks. WX-78 grabs the gears. WX-78 kills the pigs. WX-78 destroys their houses. As he gets stronger, he can take on bishops solo with only a spear and a straw hat. They survive until Spring. Webbers usually spend the first few seasons creating a spider megabase. If they can actually survive, props to them. They just have to slowly upgrade their dens. C. Do not deviate from Wilson, Wickerbottom, or Wendy. This is because you know the characters well and do not want to deal with alternate stats, abilities, or simply believe that other complex characters simply don't require skill. You might try other characters that I haven't listed here (Warly, Walani) just to learn their mechanics and see their exclusive items. In the end, one of the three I've listed is your go to, and you are the best with that character. Wilsons usually play this way because they know the amount of damage they can deal/take like they know the back of their hand. Wickerbottoms have gotten used to the added knowledge and do not want to have to craft alchemy engines. Wendys are just... heartless beasts. They set up a spider farm. They fence it in. They send Abi after it. The spider farm goes away. Repeat until Maxwell is unlocked. Wheeler is a very exciting character for all of these people. People (flesh automatons) who chose A might choose Wheeler to test out her amazing combat skills. A bit aspect of Wheeler is being able to solve almost every problem with her trusty-dusty handy-dandy Pew-Matic Horn. This is where B comes out of their gear farm to play with her as well. Whoops, you spent two days farming for crockpots because you're absolutely insane. After gathering all the resources, calculating how much material you need (because of your limited storage) you're starving to death. What could be the solution? Birds. All it takes it eight items. Sticks. Grass. It's simple as that. The stackability of items usually determines it's damage. If the item can be stacked to forty, it will deal less damage than an item that can be stacked up to twenty. Grass to logs. Of course, this is what all Wheeler mains must carry with them. Seemingly useless items that can be turned into ammo. Not only does it save storage space, but gets rid of items that you despise (nitre, feathers) and turns them into morsels! But, Seven! My sticks turned the bird into a red feather! Well, Wheeler can fit almost any item (that I know of) into her Horn. They can be fired as well, and it's extraordinarily hard to miss. This is a surefire way to guarantee meat if you're patient enough to bait some birds with seeds, which you're hopefully not eating to stave off hunger for another half second. Force eight morsels into your two crockpots, which I hope you crafted while you were waiting for birds, and viola. You live another day. Now, what about C? C usually backs off from Wheeler. It's an extreme glass cannon, emphasis on cannon. In the Don't Starve universe, a football helmet is what saves anyone from getting ripped in half by a bear-badger fusion with murderous intent. I will admit. Wheeler has downsides that prevent people from playing normally. At least Walter mains have a choice, they can deviate a little from the life of a quick-on-her-feet always-moving explorer. But Wheelers either play this for two reasons. Chaos (The Bad Ending) Wheeler is very fun. Moving at breakneck speeds and defying death is appealing in a world where death lurks around every corner makes you almost feel like you're cheating. Don't Starve isn't known for being a glitch free game, and Wheeler sometimes pushes it to the limit. Dodging was one of the biggest reasons I chose Wheeler, and seeing it being removed in DST and slapping a budget-horn onto a little boy scout called Walter seems a little betraying. But he does make up for it. And the removal did feel necessary. It would be hell to go against a Wheeler in a PvP server. Imagine trying to land the killing blow and Wheeler just teleports out of the way, dodging continually until they disappear off the screen, coming back a few minutes later with a pan flute, hambat, backpack and football helmet, chasing you down with their no-drawbacks speed boost that they receive from having an inventory empty and a backpack full. Challenge (The Good Ending) Wheeler's different way to play is what makes her hard. Getting used to dodging frames and the small inventory, low health, slow fire rate, and bugginess is all apart of the experience. Get comfy pal, cause she's not gonna change for a while. In the end, Maybelle Dorothea Wheeler is just another starving, insane survivor in the Constant that will eventually succumb to their own oversights. I usually die as Wheeler in Reign of Giants (insanity, too many entities interrupts Wheeler's dodge), Shipwrecked (overconfidence, my boat lost too much durability during a seahound wave) or Hamlet (stupidity, those damn gas clouds) for different reasons. Let this be a warning to you if Wheeler gets added. Don't let her get any ammo. No shots in. Trap her in. She can't dodge through hurtboxes. Kill her. Take her horn. Profit.
As a webber main i can say that webber has good defense from the start so you don't need to care about pigs. 3 black spiders are enought to kill a pig, and you can upgrade nest to level 3, place decorating set and get a really good defense + infinite sleep. By the way, there are also many other spiders and cookies you can use to turn normal ones into them so i think he is the most interesting char in the game(imo)
As winona main, i'd rather play wickerbottom(or other characters specialize in farming something) first to farm some twigs and cut grass and then change character
I'm a Wilson main and you pretty much hit the nail on the head aside from the fresh meat. Every Wilson player I run into has no cosmetics that are worth a damn and die within the first night of them being there. I think it's adorable.
As a wendy main I make tons of food and put it in the fridge before leaving for my explorations and or journeys gotta make sure the new players are fed and sane
me who just started playing the game with wilson and died like 10 times by now or just reset the map: ah yes ofcourse I intentionally limit my endless power and knowledge
I think newbies pick webber partially because of the interesting character design, but also because they're often scared of combat and die easily. having spiders, one of the most common mobs not be hostile toward the player and even allied is a huge relief to a newbie. also eating monster meat and easy silk access via beard makes webber an easy choice for a new player. I say this completely from personal experience
A few Webber sub-species and how to combat them based on skin choice I've noticed as an avid Webber main: -No Skin: Like Freddo said, people who really don't have a good idea but gravitate to Webber for some reason. After a while, they'll start to learn about the game and probably switch off Webber. There's no need to combat this player, so leave them alone or give them advice. -Guest of Honor and Triumphant: These are basically a bit smarter no skins with a larger vocabulary (trust me, this is important). They have a good grip on Webber and can play him and other characters well, but they way overestimate their skill and try to flex on people by using so many words so no one can understand their """argument""" against the guy. The best way to combat these guys is to say nothing and ignore them. This will make them cry. -Farmspider: The other stereotype Freddo covered. They will normally leave you alone when you refuse to enter their furry paradise server and ragequit within the process. -Gladiator and Rebel: This people are actually really good at the game, but outright refuse to use any of Webber's abilities and rush the ruins as a weaker Wilson. The way to combat these buggers are to say to them "If you're so good at Dst, then why aren't you good at getting any b*****s?" This will send them into a spiraling pit of despair, making them go afk to contemplate their life choices. -Magmatic: These people don't exist, moving on. -Roseate, Verdant, and Survivor: These guys love to amass an army of spider to go fight whatever boss they want, becoming a budget slasher 341. It is a 100% chance that showing them a picture of Deerclops will kill them on the spot. Alternatively, kill the Bee Queen in their world and watch them suffer. -Snowfallen and Victorian: These are the people that unironically use "uwu" or "owo" or all the heart emojis in their messages and profile pictures. They often amass an army of simp legions, negating their use of spiders. The best way to combat them is to cut the lines for her twitch streams, instantly killing their followers since they use it as their lifeblood and an alternative to an IV. Then, fight the Webber head on. -Webilisk Head: These guys are often found running underground as soon as they can to collect every single spitter they can find (this is me) . They don't actually ruins rush, just amass an entire armada of spiders. The only way to stop these crazies is to destroy all spider dens near the cave entrance. This will send them into a frantic craze, ending in a heart attack for them. Well, hope you've enjoyed this extensive guide on Webber mains. Make sure to drop a like below!
The thing about beginners liking Webber is true, he was the character who got me into the game and I still main him. I love him because of his personality and lore, and I also always liked the idea of playing as an "enemy" or befriending them in games
As a Wilson main I can concur. Been playing Don't Starve since it was on the Chrome app store. And Sanity was barely added as an actual mechanic in the game.
@@absolute_baller546 So it's still not officially known, or "released" by klei, but within Wigfrids rework animation that Klei did in 2020,you can see a newspaper that would have said her name on it. Alot of people think it's maybe May, Mary or something similar but it's too scratched out. Until Klei drops more lore, then we can piece more stuff. ruclips.net/video/0lQWOkAkkXU/видео.html
@@absolute_baller546 I don't think it's cannon. I think it's mostly just fan speculation still, because it still up in the air as to what people think what Wigfrid's name could potentially could be. It could be Winnie, after the scraped character that's in the game that looks similar to Wigfrid. It could be Rathgrithr/Wathgrithr. The name that's used to spawn Wigfrid in the game. So people speculate that, but there is no hard proof one way or the other. The only thing that is certain is the newspaper that Klei released with a name scratched out.... And that's about it... At least officially.
Also people gravitate towards the "I will summon a hoard to fight for me" playstyle Why else do you think there are so many charecter mods that are just Webber but Bees Webber bit Tentacles Wyrt but Pigs Webber but Rabbits Wryt but Moles Webber/Wryt but wolves Webber/Wryt but Bats Alot of people like the idea of taming wild animals to fight alongside them And the reason Webber is more popular than Wryt is because the Myrms are more like people-ish whist the Spiders are more like wild animals. Like what would you rather do in minecraft. Be able to trade with villagers + NEVER be able to tame Wolves Or Be able to tame Wolves + NEVER be able to trade with villagers
I came here to laugh, eager to listen my stereotype as a Warly main, to finally be called an NFT trader....AN NFT TRADER!!!......there is literally anything that I would like to be called but THAT, I've never felt this insulted
As a wormwood main I am mama. I keep my kids fed, I build my plant orphanage, and then I sit at the base organizing chests till someone comes home hurt. Then mama wormwood makes the pain go away with Honey Ham.
When i was new to dst,i picked and mained webber because spider boy looks more interesting than old granny,little sad girl and man with muscles since i didnt know there capabilitys
My new-player-webber theory: Webber is different and unique as the first available non-human - I can't think of any other game that has a spider boy - and he *seems* useful on paper to a new player who still thinks spiders are the scariest thing in the game. they don't know the game's mechanics and interactions with other characters enough yet to understand the others' perks. spiders are scary and difficult when you've only just started playing so immunity to them feels like a good and helpful thing, and most new players dont know about pigs at all... I have a lot of friends I've introduced to DST after they've played DS singleplayer for months, and I introduce them to pigs and how to befriend them for the FIRST TIME. Also, interestingly, the kind of person who plays Wilson singleplayer and Wilson multiplayer are the same kind of person...but the kind of person who plays Wes singleplayer and Wes multiplayer are very different people.
Wendy mains are chill until they either discover the power that is beefalo riding and/or try to defend Abigail as she attacks the wrong target, in either case causing a mass extinction event of bees, frogs, spiders, hounds, pigs, butterflies, and maybe even beefalo.

The reason why i love playing wes is because i can die super fast so i can record myself screaming and ragequitting like a madafaking goat
As a wendy main who has played with other wendy mains, none of us are chill. We are all bloodthirsty beasts awaiting our next victim. Bees? Extinct. Beefalo? Extinct. Nothing escapes our grasp. Either that or they're 10 years old lol
yes
I play wendy just because watching entire swarms of bees and fields of spiders get completely annihilated
Well Wendy players are usually dumb at kiting and relay on their dead sister Abigale in every situation
@@mahm64d98 you haven't seen the best of us yet then, just the beginners lmao
@@mahm64d98 well to be fair she does help with mobs so i get why newbies would pick her.
good wendy mains on the other hand? those mfs scare me
For Webber, I think that he is a very popular character among newer players because when a new player boots up the game and gets to the character select screen, among the relatively "normal" looking human characters, they see an anthropomorphic spider and think: "that's wacky! I wanna try that!" Also, let alone the fact that most new players won't have Wortox, Wurt, or Wormwood unlocked from the start, making Webber the only "wacky" character of the starting bunch.
Well that hit close to home
Or you use him because he’s best boy.
@Josedot thats something a furry would say :0
Nah i dude i just like funny spooder
I'm a webber main because I love his ability of making a spider army
A pub session with woodie for me consists of:
- Disappear for 2 days.
- Return with enough wood to last us until spring
- Disappear for another 2 days
- Return with minerals and rocks
- Realize there's no consistent farm because everyone was relying on the wormword that left before he could finish setting up
- We are already out of rocks
- Despair
This sure sounds like that one Woodie that joined when I left the server public accidentally. Chopped every tree on the Constant down and couldnt get a treeguard to spawn
The wormwood is me sometimes...
As a Woodie main, constantly disappearing for 2 days straight to get resources is pretty accurate, often times I'll be gathering an excessive amount of berry bushes and manure, pig skin and meat, or growing twigs to bring home and sort of help going unnoticed.
@The Arctic Fox it happens...
And then sometimes there will be a random wickerbottom/warly that finished the farm
The Wanda mains I've met are just like her, anxious and forgetful. They rush ruins and bosses (most likely dying), until they arrive at the late game, where her teleporting capabilities are wasted since they forget to bring an important item, such as the key to the atrium gate, a no-eyed deer horn to Klaus, etc. Don't even get me started on their inventory management
100% accurate tbh
Unfortunately it's true
As a wanda (and webber) main, this is so true lmao. A lot of times, when I go to base to prepare for stuff, my mind goes completely blank and forget why I went to base in the first place
And yeah, inventory management is a nightmare
I mean... I am a wanda and Wendy main but I just be making my friends get me stuff for the ingredients to make clocks that I sell to them Backstep watch cost 10 gold pieces Second Chance watch cost is a Ageless watch. Time pieces cost Cooked Meat and nightmare fuel. Yes I am a hard working Wanda making money and no I didn't waste my gold on duMB stuff misclicks 56 times accidentally crafting 56 FREAKING SCIENCE MACHINES REEEEEE
Good lord this is so true, i'm a Wanda main and forget stuff constantly
As a Wes main I can confirm that I am a borderline cryptid when in multiplayer. I kill not just because I have insatiable bloodlust but because I need food to fill this mime's seemingly bottomless stomach, and my only other option would be to eat my fellow players out of house and home. I'm convinced you have to be somewhat deranged to be a proper Wes main.
As another fellow Wes main I have to say this is pretty spot on lol. Except I tend to also make balloons everywhere and feel bad when people accidently die from them 😂
Now do a 9 part series on wardrobe cosmetic stereotypes
(Soundsmith music starts)
I see the reference and i love it
Oh god i felt this comment before i read it
There's literally only one:
Wilson with any type of skirt, it's basically DST's version of the Team Fortress Gibus/Pyrovision.
Man I hate em for no reason
Looking at the comments, no one mentions “As a Winona Main”. It really shows that Winona mains are a “functionally extinct species”.
So as a Winona main, Winona sadly gets a lot of negativity from people. I remember there were these people who said they didn’t like Winona because of her hunger penalty to crafting, it’s “too harsh and you get penalized for playing normally”. Heck, one of them forgot they toned it down one update later into her rework, and then mistook it as loses hunger faster from crafting. One person even told me to never bother playing as Winona.
I just got kicked out from a server for playing as wes, dissapearing in caves and go to the surface on day 100 still alive.
I like Winona, but she is not my main because I am simply a coward.
She's literally Engineer gaming.
@@user-hn4zn9nx3c we all like farming gaming eh?
Winona is a really underrated character, as a main of engi, many people doesn't know the full potential of her, and don't even bother to play with her, just because the catapults are "expensive", as someone who has done FW on the first winter with friends, Winona is a rampage vs the skeleton boi, wooven shadows are not an annoying thing anymore, and helps alot with the dmg, and well, in long term words, if you know how to place statues you can make: houndproof setups, spider and varg farms. You can make setups for bq and dfly, and even farms for the shadow pieces to kill as much knights as you want, and going again to the point of the cats being "expensive", rocks are extremely easy to farm, you have the mosaic, rocky biomes, oasis and dfly desert, stone fruit, the stalagmite in the caves and petrified forests, but yeah, she's just a character that you take, make the things she's good for and then swap to, idk, Wolfgang, Wanda or WX.
''It's too *harsh* and you get *penalized* for playing normally.''
Some people forgot they're playing Don't Starve lol.
As a Maxwell player, I can say it's true, I too use this game as a form of escapism, and the reason for Maxwell is because that sense of control that one profoundly miss in real life is relieved for having mindless puppets do your job (even tho they keep mining my decorative marble trees) and the false sense of accomplishment from surviving with a low health pool, but at the end of the day, we can be kings, but we are just another piece of the board.
Also, every main Maxwell I see waits anxious for their rework, even tho he probably will be the last one
Very relatable as a Maxwell main.
As are Maxwell main.... Rework when???
@@Mr_Vol I wish there was a rework for him soon. He can barely compete against other characters.
Don't get me wrong, I love not worrying about my sanity and that I don't have to carry a pickaxe or axe around and that I can farm wood, rocks and shadow creatures all at the same time but there is a lot of end game loot and feature that dose nothing for him.
@@Mr_Vol yeah, like the new enlightened crown, I love the new boss but the crown goes off Everytime I use a shadow puppet so it has limited use for Maxwell, and also Id like that the shadow duelist were a viable option to use
As a server host, I gotta say there’s a other stereotype for Wendy, that being the players have this bizarre mindset that they just can’t die. “Let me and Abigail handle it” they say as they charge the day 100 hound wave by themselves and die.
But yeah, that’s a stereotype, I know a good amount of Wendy mains aren’t that way so no need to pull out the pitchforks
Day 100 hounds aren't even hard to me as a wendy main anymore its that day 800 wave you gotta worry about
@@YourLocalGamer_YLG Im curious, what does day 800+ even look like?
@@aidatashift5726 like thirty hounds charging you
@@YourLocalGamer_YLG that's horrifying
@@whotookmypuddingcup4131 It is
I never see Wilson, like never, and when I do; they never talk, ask where my base is, or die to darkness while joining in dusk
for me, the wilsons i've found are kinda the midgame guys, that have experience on the game and will support a base but unaware of some of the "lategame" stuff like moon island or ruins
wilson mains are terrifying
because all the pros quit Wilson due to people using up their fucking effigies, fuck off cunts
I play Wilson a large amount of the time, as I don't wanna play as someone with downsides, upsides, etc, and spend most time alone. I could probably get a light source before night if its the start of dusk if its Autumn.
@@EvacTouch yeah that's fair, i main wilson on ds (not dst) since i just want to have normal playthroughs
The life of a typical wormwood main:
Join a random server
Ask/find where the base is
Take control of their farm (if they have any)
Grow enough giants to build a rick astley statue
Leave the server
Repeat the previous steps
Or alternatively, Making their own farm.
Giant crops until 3 fridges are full of food, everyone leaves and you're left with more food even a blooming wormie could ever eat. Sigh and do it again.. and again
I played a server where our Wigfried was super in character, talking about how she will go out and slay the foul winter beasts for our sustenance. I should have appreciated her more because the rest of us were just screaming on a freezing boat like a pack of fools.
Wow, I had no idea there were other people that liked to play in character XD
As a Walter main(sort of) there are mainly 2 reasons why i play as him:
1. I like his sanity mechanic.
2. I adore that boy.
He's so cute I sacrificed my life to the moon gods for him
I mostly play him just for that free immortal Beefalo you can unlock with only three monster meat.
yooo basil pfp
I honestly like wheeler more because shes faster, more predictable and the Pew-matic horn is in my opinion better! I really wish she got into dst!!
sus
nailed it with Wigfrid, I do in fact willingly run into worse case scenarios and back with the only consequences stemming from not bringing enough helmets
exactly, me taking a half durability helmet and no healing to the ruins, saying i'll heal from combat and ending up fully insane and starving before i even get there
one time i legit yelled "i don't need to be careful, i'm the almighty wigfrid!" and instantly got killed because i didn't bring enough helmets, that happened twice
As a Wigfrid main, I started playing her because I was overly cautious in the game and wanted to be able to fight things without overthinking it. I think I'm in the sweet spot between that and recklessness right now, but eventually I'll probably become yet another Wigfrid stereotype
That is a great idea. I oughtta try that out for a few hours.
I was a wigfrid stereotype the whole time but only recently realized she's my main. 😂 Previously I just played a lot of Wendy or Wortox.
I got good at the game once I started playing wigfrid. She forces you not to be afraid of the world, and once you learn that you can go back and play the other characters a lot better.
@@flamingfurball3316 but if you get stuck at wigfrid,you will be a noob forever that only knows how to play wigfrid but nothing else,risky for especially newer players
I hope not...
You forgot the webber stereotype of amassing a warhammer level of armies over the entire first autumn only to then be able to use the said army whenever they felt like it to kill any boss they want while turning the entire map into the state of a constant warzone
I made private world where me and my brother and play together. I play as Webber/wurt while my brother plays as any human characters and we just wage war before Webber’s rework it was basically rigged if I picked Webber because I was unable to get spiders from the cave alive
And they look adorable when they sleep, warming my eight eyes 👀 😊
The intro is so true, Wilson players are unpredictable as hell, it might have disappeared and be noobing around or it might be killing ancient guardian right as we speak.
Playing a non-overpowered character in order to limit your power is the biggest flex ever.
as a wilson main, i also find that a good chunk of us are chaotic comical occasionally gentleman-like bastards
i once started a science cult full of wilsons (which died because i didnt amass enough wilsons) and we were ALL exactly this. especially the one guy.
fabulous
As a Wilson main I actually tend to be the opposite with the beard hair. I have had players shake me down for my beard hair especially around winter's feast. I cannot tell you how many times I have been handed a razor and demanded to shave.
I also generally play with two Wortox mains and they do indeed choose to be chaotically mischievous. Tho I have been told by them that I am the dark one.
It's not completely my fault I seemed to have formed an alliance with the Terrorbeaks who actively prey upon one of the Wortox players.
Could we get some context on the "terrorbeak alliance"? It seems like it'd be interesting and entertaining to read the specifics.
@@SirKibbles61904 I second this
@@SirKibbles61904 Yea, context please?
@@SirKibbles61904 I feel the lack of context just goes to show how Wilson mains work
@@SirKibbles61904 we didn't get it
as a walter main who associates with other walter mains tbh all of that was correct except yall missed the part where the reason we even started playing walter in the first place is just cause he's absolutely adorable and we love the character. ive never met another walter main who doesnt have a strangely large amount of knowledge on walter's lore specifically. like, did you know walter's mom collects niche lamps??
I am a wilson main and i look down on walter players especially unskinned walters if i look at them i get into a whole fight with them filling their dogs with manure trolling them
I think a lot of people gravitated towards Webber when they first started playing was because he stands out. All the other non-DLC characters look rather human, with the exception of WX. The part where Webber gains more attention though is probably how the entirety of him is covered in black fur, which compared to everybody else that is either a dullish orange or some pale skin tones, really stands out.
Another thing is some people prefer non-human characters. Not all are furries, Im sure some just dont like humans or something idk, but that compared with his pitch black fur lures people in.
I still main Webber because of his personality and how stupidly easy it is to get infinite meatballs for the gang.
Humans are kinda like a default race for big brain beings, so i think that's contributing too
also, i think he’s just cute
He is dlc tho, Reign of giants???
I main webber cus I like the idea of having an army of small little bug things
also idk if this is what you were implying but there's nothing wrong with being a furry :)
my favorite thing about wilson players is how often i encounter ones that have no clue what other characters do XD like they know everything about the game, mastered combat and survival but then get confused when i tell them i cant heal as wanda
As someone who used to be a new DST player I know why most newer players choose Webber as their main;
Because monsters are cooler than humans and are too new to have enough spools or just not being into the game enough to buy it
Webber was technically my first main since I just wanted an easier way to farm silk without fighting as I was too scared of dying back then.
isnt wendy better at that
For Warly : knows the entire cookbook, roleplays as Gordon Ramsay, farms 24/7.
For wigfrid : uses all the resources available in the base to make an insane amount of spears and helemts.
For wanda: makes jokes about time like it s rewind time, time goes poof, etc.
I can't spend money on NFTs, all of my money goes into seasonings that ruin the food, but will hopefully buff peoples attributes. Spicy jelly makes people strong in game, so why does it only make my friends gag and throw up?
WHY DO THEY HATE MY GARLIC ICE CREAAAAAAAM
@Elly van den Brink I feel it wasn't because it was salty jam, but because it restores 3 hp
@Elly van den Brink no, I can't think, I feel it with my gut
No pain, no gain
Actually, as someone who's played on a lot of pubs I've found that Wormwood's have the same issue Webber's do, in that they are almost always total newbies playing a challenge character for some reason. Wormwoods specifically are too scared of death to try combat, and will do silly things from tilling the ground before planting because "it makes the crops grow big" to not picking any of their crops because they're "waiting for the crops to grow big." If anything I'd trust my local Wurt or Warly to know how to farm with the new plots way more than I would a Wormwood XD
Oh, and Wendy's are either complete newbies also OR are battle-hardened wise souls with more than 1000 hours, a butterfly farm at base they'll afk at, 90 monster meat in the fridge, and honey coming out of their ears. There is no in-between.
Great video btw!
Wormwood player are the type of people to join a sever thinking don’t stave is a farming simulator
I'm kinda new at this game and confirm in the case of wendy there is no in between. I just went from having no game plan immediately to having everything to sustain an army in a few days
I’ve played both DS and DST for quite a while and I’ll be honest I main wormwood because his dialogue is cute
Why is this funny I have like five stacks of monster meat in the fridge at all times and drying racks with like 40 meat on them
As someone who has mained wendy since the first time I played her, I can tell you from personal experience that both of these stereotypes are absolutely correct. When I started I was obviously a newbie, but once I got good at the game I stuck with her because I like her.
Also I like being the funny "oh look it's a girl with a negative damage modifie but she's kiting like every boss ever"
As a Wortox main:
Never before have I been offended by something I 100% agree with
It’s kind of surreal seeing how big the Dont Starve fanbase is compared to how it was when it all started. It gives me so much nostalgia that I just play as Wilson lmao xdxd I learned everything with him, so I’m used to it.
As a Webber main, you're completely right. I'm not new to the game, but when I was, I picked Webber because of his cool character design. Since then, I've never let go of them. Not that I actually know how to properly use the character, but because they look cool lol
Willow players tend to be very fashion oriented tbh. Whenever I play myself as Willow and or see others - they always try to dress up SMASHING. Since Willow likes clothes that much from the Clothe Tab it does kinda reflect on how that goes. Otherwise they become Nightmare Fuel farms.
God you're really right. I've played for so long I can change outfits per season if I want to as Willow. She be fancy.
Either that or they're trolls who light your entire base on fire ;-;
but i don't think those people count as "players" since they don't really play
I literally bought 4 outfits with real life money lol. Willows outfits are so nice and she looks so cute. I also just eat glommer goop for health and big Bernie lol. I’ve never even seen a Willow a grief. I’ve seen a Walter grief then blame it on me though (the Walter was banned)
My friend mains Willow and it's her goal to look as ridiculous as possible, which is a form of fashion in its own right I think. She only burned our base down once, by accident of course.
My Willow has the survivor outfit. All dungy and dusty and I look like I crawled outta a ditch surviving on worms and puddle water.
"Wormwoods are usually the backbone of a base's food production, at least when they aren't busy being a Living Log printer". Yep, hit the nail on the head with that one. So. Many. Logs...
I’d say there’s actually 3 types of Wilson players. The Absolute Noob, The Chad (mentioned in the video), and finally The Funny Science Man.
The Absolute Noob: This Wilson player has just started their adventures in the constant, having absolutely no clue what’s going on or how to survive. They do try their very best and give it their all, but they inevitably die to something they were unfamiliar with.
The Chad: [WILSON SEGMENT FROM THE VIDEO YOU JUST WATCHED]
The Funny Science Man: These Wilson players are a rare find. They play Wilson because they love and relate to him as a character, and will go so far to claim that they are the “Physical Embodiment of Wilson” and will change their profile pictures and names to reflect that. They are either trying out strange, unheard of strategies (that can only end in failure) purely for the sake of “SCIENCE” and to test out their theories on the game, or restarting autumn for the millionth time because they didn’t feel completely satisfied with their progress and winter preparation. They have written out multiple algebraic formulas in an effort to appear smart, and to optimise their time and crockpot efficiency.
lmao finally, someone that acknowleges my kind
funny science men are more common than you think. i met two others just in the 24/7 klei canada server. we did random shit "for SCIENCE" and somehow made a pretty good base and had a good time, until both had to leave and i put up signs in memory of our existence there
Oh hey, I'm the third kind
I am the second kind but honestly not including the noobie we are both the same
@@spooktspeekpov you are me a wilson who does his SCIENCE and go to the archive on day 19 not having a thermal stone not enough food and a wanda teling you, you need to wiat til spring and ignoring her compliety . After that do some peral taks to get the lore chest bc it mskes a funny noice. Its realy cool to play him bc evryone dosent expect anything from you . Note wiht his skilltree he can tame beefalos realy good just get a Stack of wood from pigs and you have 40 twiks
As someone who's only very recently started playing DST, I feel like I can more or less see why newcomers gravitate towards Webber, or at least give a few reasons as to why, such as:
- Webber's max HP and Hunger being a bit higher than most, "Oh, if I take this guy I'll live through stuff a bit more easily!"
- Webber starting with stuff in hand, "Not sure how to use this, but it must be helpful if he's got it from the start."
- Webber's appearance and personality, both for the fact that he's a pretty noticeable weirdo out of the non-DLC cast and the fact that he's frankly adorable and seems like a sweet kid.
Definitely not true for probably most, but that's just what I think.
Edit: Forgot to say it, but there's also the whole "lack of experience"-thing, where they don't realize how bad Webber's downsides actually are or don't realize that they even exist at first.
I’d add that some wormwood players will have a surprisingly good knack for pvp, Wheeler characters are always running on around 2-3 shots of caffeine, Wanda players are nervous wrecks, and Webber players are gullible but in a cute way.
Bramble Husk hard counters sleeping methods.
And we have an easy to require speedboost. If you can kite, fights are pretty easy.
Our usual dst group is a Wilson that thinks he’s a viking and is obsess with the moon, a Winona who is scared we’re gonna run out of rocks for catapults and must have an organized chaos at base, and me, the Willow who make sure EVERYTHING is symmetrical and who forgets to eat because I was doing five things at once :) it’s a lot of fun!
I think you're pretty spot on with Webber. When I first started playing the game I gravitated towards him (although I did play him a lot in solo Don't Starve as well so I dunno if it counts) because I really love his gameplay mechanic and the spiders in DS look adorable.
One of my friends mains Wendy and is just a ball of chaos that always asks either one of us to go along to help take down a beehive, hunt down tracks or just kill /anything/.
And my other pal is a pretty silent WX/Woody main that always ends up dying first despite being the most careful and calculated out of all of us.
Heehoo webber main go brr.
The reason why a lot of new players gravitate towards Webber, I'd say, is because he looks the edgiest out of the entire cast by default. He's the only monster that can be labelled as "creepy", so that attracts the crowd that likes edgy/creepy/monstrous/abnormal characters. Some people just like being scary monsters instead of boring humans, myself included.
As for the furries, lord help me.
Whaddya mean edgy? He's adorable! Little spider boy and his little spider friends.
Spot on buddy, gotta love them spiders
This why I play woodie
the fact that freddo put "It's Pronounced "Rules"" while talking about wilba is genius,my respect for gim has increased

@@weedGatowilba and rouxls kaard (the deltarune character whose theme song it is) both speak in that exaggerated unnecessary shakespeare way
as a maxwell main, often i will just join a server, stay for just long enough to make a shadow manipulator, get bored, and then leave
i have no idea if this is common for anyone else, but that's how i play
I feel this, I cannot focus on this game for very long fsr
Man that guy who was explaining Wurt sure sounded like he knew a lot. If only it was comprehensible
Just open the captions. I did it. It helped me
I’m a Webber main and I’m definitely not new to the game, I just find his gameplay loop a lot more fun than other characters. And he’s really good for fighting bosses if you have the spiders for it
Yes! Best boy Webber! Also I love gathering an army of spiders and Webber’s and just decimate everything in the land.
Weeber is great but I don't play him because I don't want to live alon ;-;
@@blacklight683 that's not an issue anymore! You can make passive spider nest near base or just set the spider dens a bit further from normal base and you're golden. JUST. ALWAYS. CHECK. IF. THERE. IS. RANDOM. MEAT (or eggs). ON. THE. FLOOR.
19:57
actually it's very accurate
as wurt player i don't even remember what i was doing longer, explaining why wurt is not a bad character or actually playing as wurt
Hah wurt player? Wurt is bad i play wilson i am cooler
As a wirkerbottom Main I agree with the fact that I spend a lot of time at the base, but I mainly dedicate myself to mapping the map, gathering large amounts of resources like light bulbs and for some reason I always end up teaching things about lore or gampley to less experienced players in the game.
Sorry for the Bad inglish, i'm AM usig a traslator
You’re kinda like Wickerbottom herself a teacher of sorts or maybe a mentor who’s always getting stuff to “study for later”.
English is good... I am also a Wickerbottom main. I like exploring the map and gathering resources but you will never catch me speed running the boss monsters. I enjoy watching my enemies fight amongst themselves and will try to set that up so I can get their drops without taking damage.
"Winona is an all give no take character, she only gives to other players" I thought Wolfgang was supposed to be the comrade
how. did you manage. to describe me _perfectly_ with Wilson. i haven't been here since the very beginning but you could ask me what the origins of the Pelontrix (AKA Shadow Wilson) are and i could be able to tell you. you also perfectly described my best friend who also really likes Wilson, this is incredible
Haven’t yet played Dont Starve, but the described stereotype of Wilson is exactly me as well.
Dont really know what the wendy thing was. But yeah, i rely a lot on Abigail. I like not having to deal with swarms of enemies. Specially since I play a lot of shipwrecked and she helps me dealing with mosquitoes and poison snakes
As a Wilson main, outside of lore, I can promise I know nothing and I am not good at the game
same!
No Brain No Game Gang Wilson Main
Same
Yooooooo, didn't expect the participation of Javi lmao ÉPICO

As a Wortox main, i do infact willingly kill everything that moves to satiate my incurable sense of bloodlust while i get my neurons activated and simulated by seeing something that has health points. Mainly because i was mistreated and malnourished by my mother figure, and i like to take my anger out on everything that moves. (mainly butterflies) I sometimes take a break from exterminating the ecosystem for souls that ill use up for a dumb reason to playing Wes to satisfy my masochistic tendencies, or play Maxwell to have a sense of control over my life with mindless puppets that obey what you do
13:48 holy shit THE END IS NIGH music, caught me off guard, literally best game ever
I can confirm the thing with Webber, both me and my friend picked Webber before we both switched off. They picked up Wurt while I went to Wendy
I’ve been a Wigfrid main since before the multiplayer version came out, and your description is pretty much on the money, but the funny thing is that I specifically started playing her because I usually suck at combat in most video games, and her perks allowed me to get out of my comfort zone. I’m still really avoidant of combat in pretty much every other game, but as soon as I start playing as Wigfrid the power immediately goes to my head.
"Spend 3 hours making an automated farm that saves 2 minutes every full moon" is basically Winona. Well said.
I do have a few minor foibles.
Wilson: In addition to what you've said, I've also encountered the exact opposite. People who have literally never played the game before, and die on the first night.
Willow: They get blamed for everything. The character's personality is supposed to be crazy and violent, so people assume that's how she's supposed to be played, but most actual people I've seen play her are generally helpful and benign, if a tad short lived due to nightmare fuel greed.
Wendy: I don't know about her, but Abigail mains are vicious. They stay agitated all the time, just to murder every single innocent butterfly.
Wanda: I've never actually encountered one, but the Second Chance Watch just has too much trolling potential.
Webber was literally the first character I played when I got DST. I don't know why, but I figured the tradeoff of pigs for being able to hang with some spiders would be useful or something. Highly accurate.
Alternative note: if a woody player finds a wigfrid expect the woody to turn moose on every boss fight it finds.
As a Warly main...
Your description was quite accurate. I always take care of the food and I either manage with it or not. I also always ask my friends if they are hungry beause they never really focus on their starving so yes, I take care of other players. But at the same time... I'm kind of attached to that character :')
I always thought that WX-78's voice was like the Dalek robots from Doctor Who.
As a person who likes to try something new every day. I was playing as Webber, I set up some spider nests and a friend (who was a Wendy main) asked to join, I let them in and said they could do whatever they wanted. I ended up with 0 spiders, a mad Webber, and a happy Wendy. With her meatballs.
As a WX-78 player- sorry, got another IRS phone call
14:31 so James Bucket was wrong... we DO need 87 helmets!
Wheeler mains evolve throughout time.
At first, unlocking Wheeler seems earned. It's the last character in the EXP wheel and whether you farmed it by using Woody and Lucy to spam werebeaver transformations and let spiders nibble at your fur until you pass out for 70 days, or actually played normally, it still feels like a big accomplishment. By that far in the solo game, you either-
A. Used the wiki tons and know a lot of DST information that doesn't apply to the game. Your favorite characters are Woody, Wolfgang, and Wigfrid due to their popularity in the community and general ability to rip and tear through anything with little to no thought. Woody has one of the most vital tools ingame, an axe, and it has infinite uses. His werebeaver form can tear down houses, rocks, trees, you name it, he can break it. Wolfgang can easily rush... anything. Give him proper gear and a fighting spirit, and boom, they fall like dominoes. Wigfrid is about the same, except she requires less food, and more resources to spamcraft helmets until her inventory (backpack too, unless it's a log suit, which is a surefire sign of a bad Wigfrid and overall bad combatant) is full of them.
B. Saw the solo game was on sale, fell in love with Reign of Giants and decided to buy all the DLC, unlock all the characters and create a megabase. You most likely main WX-78, Webber, or Wilba in Hamlet, because they're great for creating large safe spaces to house your farms. Wilba gets it easy, her safe space is a whole ass biome. WX-78 mains usually abuse the world generation options and create worlds full of pigs and clockworks. The pigs kill the clockworks. WX-78 grabs the gears. WX-78 kills the pigs. WX-78 destroys their houses. As he gets stronger, he can take on bishops solo with only a spear and a straw hat. They survive until Spring. Webbers usually spend the first few seasons creating a spider megabase. If they can actually survive, props to them. They just have to slowly upgrade their dens.
C. Do not deviate from Wilson, Wickerbottom, or Wendy. This is because you know the characters well and do not want to deal with alternate stats, abilities, or simply believe that other complex characters simply don't require skill. You might try other characters that I haven't listed here (Warly, Walani) just to learn their mechanics and see their exclusive items. In the end, one of the three I've listed is your go to, and you are the best with that character. Wilsons usually play this way because they know the amount of damage they can deal/take like they know the back of their hand. Wickerbottoms have gotten used to the added knowledge and do not want to have to craft alchemy engines. Wendys are just... heartless beasts. They set up a spider farm. They fence it in. They send Abi after it. The spider farm goes away. Repeat until Maxwell is unlocked.
Wheeler is a very exciting character for all of these people. People (flesh automatons) who chose A might choose Wheeler to test out her amazing combat skills. A bit aspect of Wheeler is being able to solve almost every problem with her trusty-dusty handy-dandy Pew-Matic Horn. This is where B comes out of their gear farm to play with her as well. Whoops, you spent two days farming for crockpots because you're absolutely insane. After gathering all the resources, calculating how much material you need (because of your limited storage) you're starving to death. What could be the solution?
Birds.
All it takes it eight items. Sticks. Grass. It's simple as that. The stackability of items usually determines it's damage. If the item can be stacked to forty, it will deal less damage than an item that can be stacked up to twenty. Grass to logs. Of course, this is what all Wheeler mains must carry with them. Seemingly useless items that can be turned into ammo. Not only does it save storage space, but gets rid of items that you despise (nitre, feathers) and turns them into morsels!
But, Seven! My sticks turned the bird into a red feather!
Well, Wheeler can fit almost any item (that I know of) into her Horn. They can be fired as well, and it's extraordinarily hard to miss. This is a surefire way to guarantee meat if you're patient enough to bait some birds with seeds, which you're hopefully not eating to stave off hunger for another half second. Force eight morsels into your two crockpots, which I hope you crafted while you were waiting for birds, and viola. You live another day.
Now, what about C? C usually backs off from Wheeler. It's an extreme glass cannon, emphasis on cannon. In the Don't Starve universe, a football helmet is what saves anyone from getting ripped in half by a bear-badger fusion with murderous intent. I will admit. Wheeler has downsides that prevent people from playing normally. At least Walter mains have a choice, they can deviate a little from the life of a quick-on-her-feet always-moving explorer. But Wheelers either play this for two reasons.
Chaos (The Bad Ending)
Wheeler is very fun. Moving at breakneck speeds and defying death is appealing in a world where death lurks around every corner makes you almost feel like you're cheating. Don't Starve isn't known for being a glitch free game, and Wheeler sometimes pushes it to the limit. Dodging was one of the biggest reasons I chose Wheeler, and seeing it being removed in DST and slapping a budget-horn onto a little boy scout called Walter seems a little betraying. But he does make up for it. And the removal did feel necessary. It would be hell to go against a Wheeler in a PvP server. Imagine trying to land the killing blow and Wheeler just teleports out of the way, dodging continually until they disappear off the screen, coming back a few minutes later with a pan flute, hambat, backpack and football helmet, chasing you down with their no-drawbacks speed boost that they receive from having an inventory empty and a backpack full.
Challenge (The Good Ending)
Wheeler's different way to play is what makes her hard. Getting used to dodging frames and the small inventory, low health, slow fire rate, and bugginess is all apart of the experience. Get comfy pal, cause she's not gonna change for a while. In the end, Maybelle Dorothea Wheeler is just another starving, insane survivor in the Constant that will eventually succumb to their own oversights. I usually die as Wheeler in Reign of Giants (insanity, too many entities interrupts Wheeler's dodge), Shipwrecked (overconfidence, my boat lost too much durability during a seahound wave) or Hamlet (stupidity, those damn gas clouds) for different reasons.
Let this be a warning to you if Wheeler gets added.
Don't let her get any ammo. No shots in. Trap her in. She can't dodge through hurtboxes. Kill her. Take her horn. Profit.
As a webber main i can say that webber has good defense from the start so you don't need to care about pigs. 3 black spiders are enought to kill a pig, and you can upgrade nest to level 3, place decorating set and get a really good defense + infinite sleep. By the way, there are also many other spiders and cookies you can use to turn normal ones into them so i think he is the most interesting char in the game(imo)
Loving the deltarune music and I believe new players pick Webber because he just looks cool
My friend who just got dst wanted to play Webber because “Spider cool”
As winona main, i'd rather play wickerbottom(or other characters specialize in farming something) first to farm some twigs and cut grass and then change character
As a Wendy Main the glass cutter is probably the best tool to use on yourself.
I like Webber, because he is genuinely adorable and innocent, while still managing to be an overpowered badass.
I'm a Wilson main and you pretty much hit the nail on the head aside from the fresh meat.
Every Wilson player I run into has no cosmetics that are worth a damn and die within the first night of them being there. I think it's adorable.
As a wendy main I make tons of food and put it in the fridge before leaving for my explorations and or journeys gotta make sure the new players are fed and sane
It’s cuz Wilson is the most know character from the game so new people like me play him to learn how to play
Hey! I'm a Wilson player since the begining too bad i'm not good at fighting.
Br?
me who just started playing the game with wilson and died like 10 times by now or just reset the map: ah yes ofcourse I intentionally limit my endless power and knowledge
I think newbies pick webber partially because of the interesting character design, but also because they're often scared of combat and die easily. having spiders, one of the most common mobs not be hostile toward the player and even allied is a huge relief to a newbie. also eating monster meat and easy silk access via beard makes webber an easy choice for a new player. I say this completely from personal experience
A few Webber sub-species and how to combat them based on skin choice I've noticed as an avid Webber main:
-No Skin: Like Freddo said, people who really don't have a good idea but gravitate to Webber for some reason. After a while, they'll start to learn about the game and probably switch off Webber. There's no need to combat this player, so leave them alone or give them advice.
-Guest of Honor and Triumphant: These are basically a bit smarter no skins with a larger vocabulary (trust me, this is important). They have a good grip on Webber and can play him and other characters well, but they way overestimate their skill and try to flex on people by using so many words so no one can understand their """argument""" against the guy. The best way to combat these guys is to say nothing and ignore them. This will make them cry.
-Farmspider: The other stereotype Freddo covered. They will normally leave you alone when you refuse to enter their furry paradise server and ragequit within the process.
-Gladiator and Rebel: This people are actually really good at the game, but outright refuse to use any of Webber's abilities and rush the ruins as a weaker Wilson. The way to combat these buggers are to say to them "If you're so good at Dst, then why aren't you good at getting any b*****s?" This will send them into a spiraling pit of despair, making them go afk to contemplate their life choices.
-Magmatic: These people don't exist, moving on.
-Roseate, Verdant, and Survivor: These guys love to amass an army of spider to go fight whatever boss they want, becoming a budget slasher 341. It is a 100% chance that showing them a picture of Deerclops will kill them on the spot. Alternatively, kill the Bee Queen in their world and watch them suffer.
-Snowfallen and Victorian: These are the people that unironically use "uwu" or "owo" or all the heart emojis in their messages and profile pictures. They often amass an army of simp legions, negating their use of spiders. The best way to combat them is to cut the lines for her twitch streams, instantly killing their followers since they use it as their lifeblood and an alternative to an IV. Then, fight the Webber head on.
-Webilisk Head: These guys are often found running underground as soon as they can to collect every single spitter they can find (this is me) . They don't actually ruins rush, just amass an entire armada of spiders. The only way to stop these crazies is to destroy all spider dens near the cave entrance. This will send them into a frantic craze, ending in a heart attack for them.
Well, hope you've enjoyed this extensive guide on Webber mains. Make sure to drop a like below!
The thing about beginners liking Webber is true, he was the character who got me into the game and I still main him. I love him because of his personality and lore, and I also always liked the idea of playing as an "enemy" or befriending them in games
As a Wilson main I can concur. Been playing Don't Starve since it was on the Chrome app store. And Sanity was barely added as an actual mechanic in the game.
You know wigfrids real name?
@@absolute_baller546 So it's still not officially known, or "released" by klei, but within Wigfrids rework animation that Klei did in 2020,you can see a newspaper that would have said her name on it. Alot of people think it's maybe May, Mary or something similar but it's too scratched out. Until Klei drops more lore, then we can piece more stuff.
ruclips.net/video/0lQWOkAkkXU/видео.html
@@DreamwithintheHeart I remember it was something stupid like mailop or like that i saw it on oranges vid
@@absolute_baller546 I don't think it's cannon. I think it's mostly just fan speculation still, because it still up in the air as to what people think what Wigfrid's name could potentially could be. It could be Winnie, after the scraped character that's in the game that looks similar to Wigfrid. It could be Rathgrithr/Wathgrithr. The name that's used to spawn Wigfrid in the game. So people speculate that, but there is no hard proof one way or the other. The only thing that is certain is the newspaper that Klei released with a name scratched out.... And that's about it... At least officially.
@@DreamwithintheHeart alright 1 lore question if you answer it you have me surprised how did the ancients discover nightmare fuel
I never realised, as a Woodie main, that I am in fact eager to prove myself useful but someone always does things better than me
I'm not a Wortox main but I've been saving up spools for him and I gotta say you've predicted everything I plan to do as a future Wortox main
7:10i play wendy just because I don't know how to fight and I can think about my next move while my sister is fighting to 2 death
Webebr is cute spider boy. Plus people dont wanna fight spiders, so they ally with spiders
Also people gravitate towards the "I will summon a hoard to fight for me" playstyle
Why else do you think there are so many charecter mods that are just
Webber but Bees
Webber bit Tentacles
Wyrt but Pigs
Webber but Rabbits
Wryt but Moles
Webber/Wryt but wolves
Webber/Wryt but Bats
Alot of people like the idea of taming wild animals to fight alongside them
And the reason Webber is more popular than Wryt is because the Myrms are more like people-ish whist the Spiders are more like wild animals.
Like what would you rather do in minecraft.
Be able to trade with villagers + NEVER be able to tame Wolves
Or
Be able to tame Wolves + NEVER be able to trade with villagers
The wurt part was one of the funniest things I’ve seen today
Me as Webber main:
Huge spider economy and army > prepering for Winter
As a Wilson main i sadly have to say that everything you said applies to me
Even for experts, we Webber mains are a mistery.
I dunno about all characters but I can describe Wanda with one phrase: "Who is that Wolfgang?"
A wolfgang who has 1 hp
I came here to laugh, eager to listen my stereotype as a Warly main, to finally be called an NFT trader....AN NFT TRADER!!!......there is literally anything that I would like to be called but THAT, I've never felt this insulted
As a wes main i can confirm. I'm always using the chat besides killing dragonfly with no armour.
As a wormwood main I am mama. I keep my kids fed, I build my plant orphanage, and then I sit at the base organizing chests till someone comes home hurt. Then mama wormwood makes the pain go away with Honey Ham.
I think Webber is liked by newer players because he’s kinda wholesome in a way
That Wanda bit actually made me existential
As a Walter main I have never been so offended by something I totally agree with
the wendy joke flew over my head. is it a rule 34 joke? if not then yeah this flew over my head
I think it's a sewerslide joke lol 💀⚰
sewerslide all the way
When i was new to dst,i picked and mained webber because spider boy looks more interesting than old granny,little sad girl and man with muscles since i didnt know there capabilitys
Wilson : You dont like disadvantage's
As a webber main I play him since he’s kind of like the summoner class for dst
I appreciate the subtle things like playing a versiion of "Ride of The Valkyries" while Wigfrid mains were being explained.
My new-player-webber theory: Webber is different and unique as the first available non-human - I can't think of any other game that has a spider boy - and he *seems* useful on paper to a new player who still thinks spiders are the scariest thing in the game. they don't know the game's mechanics and interactions with other characters enough yet to understand the others' perks. spiders are scary and difficult when you've only just started playing so immunity to them feels like a good and helpful thing, and most new players dont know about pigs at all... I have a lot of friends I've introduced to DST after they've played DS singleplayer for months, and I introduce them to pigs and how to befriend them for the FIRST TIME.
Also, interestingly, the kind of person who plays Wilson singleplayer and Wilson multiplayer are the same kind of person...but the kind of person who plays Wes singleplayer and Wes multiplayer are very different people.
It’s pretty funny, sometimes I just play Wilson bc I don’t feel like accommodating for character debuffs
As a wurt main i can approve everything said by Javi
Wendy mains are chill until they either discover the power that is beefalo riding and/or try to defend Abigail as she attacks the wrong target, in either case causing a mass extinction event of bees, frogs, spiders, hounds, pigs, butterflies, and maybe even beefalo.
