I feel like the game got itself into a bad twist somewhere, being unable to decide wether it wants to be open survival or linear storydriven. Its kinda fun to run around and get yourself suited but then there is random bullshit like Blue Rot around every other corner to dampen your fun.
@@norilsk668 I saw the black swamp tile and said "that looks like death. Ima not go in there." Then i talked to a DMC gaurd and he said "yeah man. Thats death. Dont go in there." So i survived by not going there until i had a working gas mask and more water than i knew what to do with...
1:11:35 "I don't know why everyone is a maniac..." actually, if you try to talk to most of them, you'll exchange a few words, and then be on your way. Some of them just run away the moment they realize you don't want to fight them.
@@wadejackson1358 Those are canibals. You will find their handy work all over the place in the ground where there are chunks of human meat. This game is neat cause the entire world is actually alive.
I actually ended up dying during my first encounter with Bad Motha because I was trying to talk and threaten him like a human being. Needless to say, it doesn't work. Perhaps everyone became a maniac in this "apocalypse".
My Go To build was almost always this: TRAPPING - A must have. Being able to forage for food more effectively, make snares, 'set trap' option in combat encounters, scavenging is safer, and make fire when/where ever was just invaluable. You get SO MUCH utility out of it. RANGED - Astoundingly powerful. You basically have a gun with craftable ammo in the form of the bow & arrow. (Same goes for the sling! Never underestimate the ability to surpress enemies with a hail of pebbles!) LOCKPICKING - makes looting substantially more profitable as it gives you a massive loot bonus in places like old houses or apartments. Lockpicks tend to wear out pretty fast, but you can just recraft them with the materials they deteriorate into. BOTANY(OPTIONAL) - Easy mode, IMO, as you will literally never run the risk of starving if you use this. Particularly if used in conjunction with TRAPPING. A little hungry? Stop by and scavenge a forest and have yourself a picnic of berries and mushrooms. TOUGH - Makes you less likely to die to b***s**t deaths in combat encounters(be prepared for those, It's kind of this game's version of 'Getting X-Comed') Also, you can headbutt people in combat, and who doesn't love that? :p HIDING & TRACKING (OPTIONAL) - relatively cheap and allows you to be a sneaky boi. Great for hit and run tactics where you can wound an enemy and then track them from a distance. METABOLISM (RED) - Not even really a negative trait, IMO. You need to eat and drink more often, but you heal faster. Pretty easy to offset if you're running BOTANY/TRAPPING MYOPIA (RED) - Basically free trait points as you can replace it with EAGLE EYE once you reach the city and have a chunk of change for the surgery. General advice - Make noise traps before sleeping. They will save your ass. Don't attack DMC guards unless A)You are obscenely well prepared B)feel like dying - They tend to travel in packs, can call in murder drones as back-up, and will always be hostile once you piss them off. If you see a dude with a blue sash, stay away. Random story encounters can and will kill you. Kind of my one gripe with the game as usually there's zero indication as to what the result might be unless you have the wiki open. Bit of a pain to lose hours of progress to something so arbitrary. Looking forward to more episodes!
So my main build i drop botany and lockpicking and tough, for athletic, medic, and hacking. also get the red insomniac skill. with this build you can make boatloads of cash from pills, ammo, and hacked computers. food isnt a worry with trapping, and rely on ranged and athletic in combat to annihilate opponents from far
@@fatdave124 died on my last build due to heatstroke, killed the wraith and was close to the end of the game really sucked, I had everything too eye augments body armor guns tons of ammo, if you use the cure for blue rot you can go into the swamp where you can get end game gear, ah well going with a new build now ranged bot trap hack Lock tracking and elec, neg skills myo insom enervated
Fun fact: the Merga Wraith (the one that appears when you remove the talisman) can be killed, and grants the hidden "Legendary" perk, which immediately grants the other two hidden perks. Though, admittedly, it's pretty much required to have one of those two hidden perks (achievable through your actions within a save only) in order to kill it.
Huh they changed it I see, normally you had minimal chance to hit him (like natural 20 roll) and probably oneshoot him if you used any good weapon and then you had option to went into portal
You can get the Elusive perk imediatly by going to zomzomz and killing the robot with trapping, then continuing to the ATN and evading them with atheletic. You can get the unstopable perk by using melee and strong simultaneously to kill the fuck out of the begining dogman without injury. Take the tape and hand it in to hatter when you first meet him. If you combine unsoptable with evasive, melee, ranged and athletics you have a natural 95% evasion in combat..........(provided you are well fed, well hydrated, well rested, uninjured and not sick)
NEO Scavenger brought me back in to pc gaming. Only had a laptop at the time and it was one of the few games that ran well on it... Spent 200+ hours in it. I then built my first pc in 2013, and then my current pc in 2018. Love this game, and the impact it had on my life.
I put on Nathan’s Sandbox Factorio playlist, woke up to this and now I’m subscribed to your VoD’s channel and your main channel! I love your content and your voice is very satisfying! Now I’m going back to sleep. Goodnight
You and Sseth is what drove me to finally fully understand and beat the entire game, and boy was it a journey. From running away in terror of dog furry to killing an extraterrestrial being out to assassinate me, i still remember the day i foolishly thought that eating raw meat and unpurified water was a good idea. A few minutes later and i was lying on the ground with gastroenteritis and food poisoning hopelessly drinking tea in hopes of curing my own miserable self
First time I played I was devoured in my sleep by a horde of feral dogs. Second time, I killed an unconscious guy and got his clothes, a backpack, a shotgun and a single boot. Nice play.
This is one of my all-time favorite games. 1) Shacks in the woods are awesome. 2) The two legendary traits are easy to get in a couple in-game weeks, and with both, literally nothing in the game can harm you.
I remember how psyched I was when I discovered that combining water, tree bark, and fire would give me tea, which stopped me from dying of whatever diseases are in that river.
I remember playing this when it was on showcase at PAX East 2015 Playing on panel was a bizarre experience, especially since it was the first time I got to enjoy a con by myself. Meeting the devs behind the game was even more fun!
Mr Falcon has a few of them... This was back during the golden days of youtube, so dont expect any new episodes... but there are several seasons available. YIpee ki yay.
"It is cool and damp outside. It must be Florida" That is impossible. Cool weather was outlawed in the Florida constitution, the price for breaking this law is immediate death
I love that i knew the last character was doomed like 40 minutes before he died and got to just listen to him do everything he could to make it worse while trying to fix it. PS i played the shit out of this on mobile. Theres a zoom feature to help navigate the inventory. It takes some getting used to but its not too bad.
2:42:10 if you stand on the same tile and wait through till morning, the shop inventory will reset. This is especially good when you have large ticket items to sell like bullets. Then you can cherry pick what you want just by spending a couple of days at the shop.
Ooh, the guided tour of survival games that is your channel continues into the wilderness :D There's an unprecedented surge of choice in so many of my favourite genres, I can't play them all! It's not a candy store, it's like a whole candy mall!
Yess! you found the other legend, second to project zomboid. I'm so glad to be watching your playthrough- shot ! Man you're making that sweet sweet content, I appreciate you.
Nearly won this game with a save game that took me nearly 3 months to carefully edge my way through the story. There's so much under the surface of this game! A wonderful little creation
I keep coming back this this game every so often. there's something addicting about the looting. I only recently invaded the military base, normally I'd save up for robot eye replacement surgery by hacking devices for bank data and selling cart loads of tannin tea and then hunt cannibals.
Pro tip from someone who has beaten this game always use "Lure" and "Create Obstacle" whenever they show up in combat they work almost 100% of the time and can cripple an opponent without you even needing to be near them.
2:16:47 You aren't actually *losing* all your blood, the alcohol is thinning it out! (You are however, drinking a few days after severe internal bleeding that you "fixed" with a rag) If you're normal and healthy, you'll just get drunk and recover in the morning. If you were bleeding out and *then drank alcohol*, you would bleed out faster. And if you were drunk and got cut, you'll lose blood and possibly die faster. Instead of adding a BAC meter, the game represents it as the lost blood meter dropping.
I love this game. I wish there were more like it. 50+ attempts years ago. This game is perfect for what it has to work with. "You're an idiot and a lycan is chasing you out of a building" better intro than 75% of games these days.
"I know how to play this game." mere seconds later: "oh no, where are my water bottles?" comedic gold right there xD This is soooo hard to watch when you know the game. He has great talent for jumping to all the wrong conclusions and doesn't pay attention to any status messages or event text... Guess it makes it kind of entertaining if you can bear it ^^"
Yeah it's something that just pisses you off and the only way to deal with it is to stop the video and go watch something else until your frustrations subside
I like to take botany for food, and I'll also take insomniac most of the time as big side effect of being a restless sleeper is decreasing the likelihood of you being killed in your sleep.
As someone with 350h plus it’s hurting my soul seeing you just attack you need to use the trip headbutt plus obscure path for free stunneds while smashing there heads in you got extremely lucky gg tho love your shit
Taking the laptop to the market instead of the bottle of alcohol and then just started chugging alcohol when your trying to survive. Still enjoyed it though lol. We all have to die at least 5 times before we start to make the correct survival choices
I love how at 26:11 you start a delicious soliliquy re childhood exploration that near-immediately reverts back to task...pretty swell inflection and timing, to my ear....anyway, thanks.
One word: Botany If you have Botany you can move to the city and sell huge quantities of tea for fast income, like $$$$ per day. Drinking it yourself keeps the doctor away too. And as another bonus, you can treat wounds with it too, and treat bandages with it for sterilization instead of water. Just set up a camp on a water source, grab like lots of small twigs and water, and start boiling with a pan. Further bonus: You get to scavenge for berries, which is early game food and drink from forests.
Oh my god I cannot wait to play this on my steam deck I know it’s older but at least for future comment goers: when you don’t have botany and can’t tell the edibility of berries, blue are always safe, red can be both, and white are always poisonous. So risk red in dire situations I guess but otherwise just eat blue
Need to use melee skill in crafting to make the hardened spear. Metal pan can make 3 sterile water at once. If you have one sterile water, keep it and try and stack unknown water on it. If it stacks, the unknown water is good. If you deconstruct the snare you should get your crowbar back. Tarp and med string makes a bag that holds a good amount. Alcohol is best used to disinfect wounds. Smartphone batteries are great for holding electricity for things like flashlights, night vision goggles, and water testers.
I do a lot of video watching while I'm doing other things, like gaming. That is to say, I'm not actually watching the video. Since NEO Scavenger is so text heavy, and the ambience is mostly audio, I can game while I listen. And of course having everything read by my favorite amphibian, ambiguous as it may be, is just icing.
I tried the demo when it first showed up years back and I was so confused but intrigued, unfortunately it was very limited in the demo, and I'm so glad someone I enjoy watching found it!
Its sad the developers never got into their work again and released a 2nd part to the game. With that being said: Hobo Scavenger is a really great game. :) There is also a quite decent mod, which adds more traits and other stuff to the game. Have fun AP.^^
“It’s very esoteric for the people who like it.” Me: Esoteric? Inside my head: Guy 1: Could it mean sexy? Guy 2: I think it’s a science term. Guy 3: Fellas fellas, esoteric means delicious. Me: AA, neo scavenger isn’t a food.
This was a really fun game. You start off not knowing why you are so cold, hungry, and thirsty all the time and getting wrecked by feral dogs. Once get the hang of how the game works then you end up killing the mega wraith and farming DMC guards for money so you can buy bionic eyes.

I used to love this game, played it WAY back. Nice to see someone playing it in 2021.
Need to use melee skill in crafting to make the hardened spear. Metal pan can make 3 sterile water at once. If you have one sterile water, keep it and try and stack unknown water on it. If it stacks, the unknown water is good. If you deconstruct the snare you should get your crowbar back. Tarp and med string makes a bag that holds a good amount. Alcohol is best used to disinfect wounds. Smartphone batteries are great for holding electricity for things like flashlights, night vision goggles, and water testers.

Got strong Sopranos vibes from the part where you were stranded in a wasteland eating individual packets of condiments and freezing
love a good old fashioned homeless glass fight over hopefully anything
I do a lot of video watching while I'm doing other things, like gaming. That is to say, I'm not actually watching the video. Since NEO Scavenger is so text heavy, and the ambience is mostly audio, I can game while I listen. And of course having everything read by my favorite amphibian, ambiguous as it may be, is just icing.
Love your style narrating NEO Scavenger
Literally bought the game because of this video. It's so much fun. Gotta love botany though for that free food
I tried the demo when it first showed up years back and I was so confused but intrigued, unfortunately it was very limited in the demo, and I'm so glad someone I enjoy watching found it!
This one makes me think of Sword of the Stars: The Pit and the excellent Stoneshard
Also some old Warcraft III Wilderness Survival custom maps

Dude! I didnt even know you had this channel too. Made my day.
Does anyone else feel like every time he plays a new game he says "One of the most requested games on my channel."
Not complaining, just amusing. d:
Its sad the developers never got into their work again and released a 2nd part to the game.
With that being said: Hobo Scavenger is a really great game. :) There is also a quite decent mod, which adds more traits and other stuff to the game.
Have fun AP.^^
Semi-textbased apocalypse hobo simulator. Cool.

I killed a man for this hoodie with a sling, 10/10
“It’s very esoteric for the people who like it.”
Me: Esoteric?
Inside my head:
Guy 1: Could it mean sexy?
Guy 2: I think it’s a science term.
Guy 3: Fellas fellas, esoteric means delicious.
Me: AA, neo scavenger isn’t a food.
This was a really fun game. You start off not knowing why you are so cold, hungry, and thirsty all the time and getting wrecked by feral dogs. Once get the hang of how the game works then you end up killing the mega wraith and farming DMC guards for money so you can buy bionic eyes.
Don't you get kicked out of dmc if you kill the guards?
Dude i'm glad that my fav zomboid player is playing my fav game!
This made the inner-most curves of my brain smoothen as I remembered playing this or something that was very like this as a whee lad
13:25 when you have to deal with the 12 year old watching the stream... 🙃
One of my favorite video games of all time
That Whiskey was like 200 dollars and he just straight downed half the bottle lmao
Fallout for people who own potato computer; caught me off guard! 🤣
