yeah, I'm trying to get into it but find the lack of direction overwhelming at times feels like I'm wasting time playing and dying early because I don't know what to build
Pathetic I survived 3 years solo no vids I realized how lucky I got I found a walking cane next to spawn and path with 3 totally normal trees close to each other so when I started again it was way harder
Dillon O'Neil well i believe rushing pepper and garlic are a good strategy (again! In my opinion lol) cause im always playing with a Wolfgang and a wicker and well spice are so good, you can reach a 6 time dammage multiplier on mighty spicy jelly wolfgang, he kills every boss super fast, and me and wicker can do other shits meanwhile
I honestly fear insanity not because nightmares are hard, but because since I live in the middle of nowhere whenever i play with friends i lag to infinity and get hit every time by terrorbeaks The true enemy of the game is lag
Camp near the Beefalo Place fires along the way run around the fires as you make your way to the Beefalo for protection that's what I did and make sure to have a shit ton of bunnies
My first ever playthrough I made it to day 33. Doing great, I suddenly hear big ass footsteps and my character says "that sounds bad" Fucking Deerclops wrecks my ehole base and than me. Fml
My easybake winter survival trick: - find spiders - make birdcage & get bird - make crockpot You now have infinite food via meatballs by feeding cooked monster meat to a bird for eggs. Works best as/with a Wendy/Webber as both can mass farm spiders with near zero effort. If deerclops spawns (usually near the end of winter at night) run the fuck away from base so he spawns away and won't wreck your shit and then ether leave him or come back to fight for his eye later.
I made it to summer but our base caught fire because our friend ate all the gears but one and we didn't realise until before summer approached because I was trying to make the thing that keeps your base cool to prepare. Then our whole base caught fire in the middle of summer and the summer boss was also destroying our whole world then all my friends died. I made it to autumn still alive with enough supplies to survive but considering my entire base was destroyed and everyone else was dead there was no reason to keep going. I also killed the autumn boss before I quit because why not.

@@vanyadolly I've been playing and watching this game for nearly 8 years now. Watching tons of guides from lots of channels. Of course it would seem like someone is stealing content. This game is pretty basic in ways to defeat mobs. And only certain ways you can farm. So they will always look similar. And don't forget we live in America. We have the best freedoms on the world. He should be able to make videos even if they are similar to others. Idk I think it's kind of silly to say that he steals people's content. It's a video game. WC
@@iamyourgod530 No, it's more direct than that. The way certain farms work are far more specific than general knowledge about the game. You're welcome to research the matter yourself. There are plenty of posts about it on reddit. Furthermore the internet and gaming aren't restricted to the US and I'll respectfully have to disagree about the value of your 'freedoms' if they boil down to stepping on others for your personal gain.
@@vanyadolly I did look it up about a year ago when I heard about it. He never stood on anyone. He may have done some farms close to others but I have never heard him talk about another channel and bring them down. I have researched it long time ago. But people these days get there feelings hurt over anything now. I see lots of channels doing farms very similar to one another it's just not beard. Beard lives in Chicago which is America so he does have more freedoms than others in their other countries. That's why America is the best country in the world. Free speech is number one. If you don't want people having competition to your work then they need to copyright it. The people complaining about beard have that right as well. So if they want to complain then get it copyrighted. Then he can't do it. Competition is great
The biggest game-changer for me was learning that I could catch spiders in traps. Also, very early on, I played my own game and restarted the day every time I died, that way I learned how to fix my most costly mistakes. Finally, don't worry about being perfect. There are different kinds of gamers, so if you need to alter the game a bit to enjoy it, that's perfectly okay. :) Great vid!
Two tips I always give to people, new or veteran, is to carry seeds on you at all times. Not only will they come in handy when you finally get a farm set up or are playing as Wickerbottom or Wormwood (who gains Sanity when he plants things) they last for ages and are easily acquired via birds. This makes them a great Emergency food for if you're out exploring the world and run out of meatballs and have wandered too far from home. Another tip is that I set up a flower garden in my base to spawn butterflies, butterflies make exquisite filler for Meatballs and are the healing potato chip of Don't Starve. They feed you and give 8 HP a pop! Not to mention they are a decent way to spawn Krampus, collect Souls (if you're playing as Wortox) are required to make the Glossamer Saddle and farm for the ever elusive Butter. Granted this farm will not work in Winter but that's where ice comes into play or any reserve berries you haven't yet picked from your bushes yet. 3 out of 4 times of the year the farm will always be up and spawning butterflies. CTRL+F is the key to punching the butterfly. (Unless you tinkered with your key bindings then Idk what to tell you) To catch butterflies you will need a bug net (2 silk, 1 rope, a few twigs under the Survival Tab) you catch them then hold them in your mouse cursor. It will say "Plant" when you however over suitable terrain. (You cannot plant butterflies on made mad turf. E.g: Wood flooring, Carpeted flooring, etc. If you want to you will have to dig up the turf with a pitchfork, plant them, then put the turf back on the ground.
I always make one of these but I realized that the less flowers and more people the more butterflies spawn, but you want more flowers if you plan on having bees in your base then you should do a lot of flowers
3:49 I like having my camera at one specific angle, but rotating your camera is important so I just got a mod to reset my camera angle to default with the push of a button
It's always good to look back and reflect what you did wrong. I pick Woodie at my 1st ever playthrough, and I had NO idea what happened to me. I dun even know I eat wood.
It depends on a lot of factors. I like the following mods: - Geometric placement - Realistic placement - Camp Security (for managing privacy and people hammering or burning my stuff) - Plants Cluster (for planting in blocks, I hate planting one plant at a time. It is more expensive since not only require the dug plants but a % of the resource). - Smart Minisign (it automatically puts a minisign with the imagen of the first element inside it, I use it when I play with people I don't know, who usually ruins the order of the items) - In case of playing with extremely newbie people, I use Campfire Respawn, so they can respawn quickly and stop draining my sanity because the were killed by a tallbird or some shit. - Shipwrecked turfs/Hamlet turfs/Craftable turfs/Pastoral Style/Farmplot: for crafting turfs and other decorative stuff (does not change the mechanics of playing at all, but I like having a nice looking base!) - DST Greenhouse Supplies, adds a horticulture tab which adds the posibility to use planters... to plant plants. I like it, because it adds a whole new gameplay by allowing users to make a fully fledge sea base, by having crops. It is expensive, slow, not for early game. I don't use it to grow caves plants though! - QM Chests. Adds a quantum entangled chests, which allows users to "teletransport" items from one chest to it's counterpart. I configure the mod to be hard, meaning it is hard to get the blueprint, very hard to make every chest, and also to drain a lot of sanity, making it only for emergencies. - Quick drop: To drop items right in the same spot I'm standing. This helps me to put statues in the right place. For design purposes only.
I recommend to new players: increase autumn to long Practise killing nightmares in a new world as wigfrid Kiting pattern is: dodge attack, attack, repeat Therefore you have enough time to prepare for winter whilst also not having to worry about nightmares Get gears by digging graves or collecting tumbling weeds (not smoke able)
Just started playing this game on Apple Arcade and whoah am i overwhelmed. I love the game and exploring what everything does has been fun so far! Thank you for making a video that taught me more than I expected. This game is so layered and deep.
Please make a mid-game guide. Mid-game is for people who haven't defeated fuelweaver yet but have cleared all or some of the ruins. You can focus on animal farms (spider, bunny, pigs, hounds) and how to deal with deerclops/bearger on a regular basis.
I met the channel thanks to dst season 6 RoT, and i really miss a guide to the ruins/ rush ruins. I didn t find any good videos of how to do it, but only a good video from jazzy telling why to do it. Also thanks for your videos, they really helps a lot.
What I do when I play this game 1. Gather resources and camping outside for few days 2. Make base/fire etc 3. Find food recourses, dig it and plant (make sure you have Guano) 4. Farming Silk 5. Go into sinkhole/ wormhole 6. Explore and more resources 7. Died on winter (every f time)
just made it past winter for the first time by basically making everyone else stop playing until it was over and scrimping by on our very limited food only to find out spring isnt much easier
haha I knew you'd bring up geometric placement, ive seen your ocd in the hamlet playthrough. I actually kinda like having a little asymmetrical farms and plots, adds to the "homemade" feel sometimes Great video m8!
I don't think I'm too keen on the grass, twigs, bushes digging and replanting strategy though. Although it may be a good temporary solution for getting enough food in the early game it's really bad in the long run. You basically waste all your time in arranging all those things that are eventually going to get diseased and turn into rot and twigs indefinitely. That if you haven't turned off diseases though. In your case it is a nice strategy, but I wouldn't really recommend it to new players who haven't mingled with the world settings. What I'd do is chop down as many twiggy trees as possible and replant them in my base - they don't wither and give you twigs automatically. Besides, upon chopping down a fully grown twiggy tree you get 2 cones and you can grow your forest as time passes. Regarding food, farms are a good source for a controlled production of dragon pies, and dragon pies give you 40 hp each at the cost of only one fruit and some measly resources you can find pretty much on the ground. That said if players feel comfortable enough fighting spiders they could use tents and glands for health restoration and completely dump the farms. Getting a fridge, even 2 is pivotal early on. Forget berry bushes, mining enough ice can be enough for you to be good for a year or two ahead, because ice doesn't spoil. You can make the game spawn icebergs by walking along the edge of the map during winter. Seriously, if you don't have diseases turned off and your grass area isn't enclosed properly don't bother planting bushes, twigs and grass, it's a horrible idea. Everything else is as good an advice as it gets :)
Honestly, I would recommend to anyone new to the game to turn disease off to begin with. I really hope that it gets reworked in future but right now, it is not a mechanic that adds anything to the game and as such will never be using it in any of my worlds. And even if disease was enabled, I would still be transplanting grass as it's one of the most heavily-required resources. Having a decent supply nearby is invaluable and that would also let you look after it in summer with a flingo. Twiggy Trees I can make my peace with if you want to go down that route. Besides that, I do agree that ice is ultimately better than Berry Bushes in the long run but for starting off, Berry Bushes are a really easy way of getting both meat and filler. This is a beginner's guide after all. Some players are still struggling to make it to winter to get ice. I do find it very interesting how other people play the game though. Some of the things you mentioned are ways of playing that I honestly don't even consider much anymore. Sometimes I even forget that disease exists tbh. I guess that's one of the best things about DST. It allows for such a broad range of play styles :)
"Let me know what you are having difficulty with".. (Rant) Well ok. With my mate. I really have difficulty with my mate. My mate is unreliable to the point of parody.
hey there, ive been a huge fan since 2015 and watched every single episode of ur series. Im truly inspired and wouldnt have made it this far without u everytime i play this game i recommend ur channel to my friends and family. one of those friends is called Lukas, he recently go diagnosed with testicle cancer and is struggling to fight rn, his insanity is really low rn all i ask is that u keep him in your thoughts
for new players, don't use weapons in first slot like this video tip. Have a stack of twigs in first slot, or grass even. Frogs or hanging wines for example will take the first inv slot and remove the item, but if it's a stack of something, will only remove one of the items in the stack, so you only lose one twig instead of a whole weapon.
@@raydil99 fanboy. If I wanted, I would find every single time demon lost his weapon due to frogs and wines. And this was new player tip, you saying this wont happen to new players? I have invested 600 hours + in this game and constantly play with new players, and they always ALWAYS drop their weapons. It's fine, I understand preparing for hot keys, but don't fucking call it beginner tips then. And btw, you can perfectly fine NOT have weapons in slot one and still do end game content and hotkeys and setup. Just saying. Fanboy. Gonna unsub anyway, been with demon since he was a small channel, where he actually just chill and play. Now he tryharding for clicks and complain, I'm out.
@@raydil99 It's probably better to just change the hotkey so that 1 = inv slot 2, 2 = inv slot 3 and just put a dud item in slot 1 which you'll never hotkey press since you've changed the binding.
I like to build a Science Machine ASAP. Then a backpack, shovel (for twigs, bushes, grass) and hammer from that. Destroy the science machine to get some loot back. Collect flowers as you go, for rot. By the time you find a base you are ready to set up.
@@Bluehoshiflower You shouldnt play 1 character for the sake of not having to make a science machine especially when an alch is so easy to make. Hell plus if you struggle with sanity the bonus you get for protoing those basic tools is huge.
just picked this game up tonight while looking for a game i could play with my brother, since i'm on PC and he's on Mac seems like something i can get into
Its a pain to play with my cousin he’s always asking how to craft something we die at DAY 7 ALL THE TIME CAUSE OF HIM!?!? this is a helpful video hopefully he doesn’t just skip this vid
when i first started in dont starve: giant edition i took the fire rod from the the fire hounds and was so lucky there was a pig village where i was running
1: how do i build a base? 2: what if i get lost and forgot where my base is? 3: how do you plant berries bushes 4: how do i progress with armour 5: im confused on what gnome and mystery box is for, maybe you can help? 6: is the chestnut hard to find? Got in on my first day died at 2nd day 7: how do i explore? I keep going back to place i was before 8: do i get to explore the ocean? Sorry for many questions i just got the mobile version
If youre playing on M&K you can click a spot across a body of water and you'll walk there automatically no matter how much far you have to walk around.
He :you will never be able to get enough nightmare fuel ME when i dont play maxwel : 2 chest full of nightmare fuel which i dont know for what to use Also me when i play maxwell: I don't need light, i need nightmare fuel
I mean I haven't played the game in years and getting into DST with my friend has reminded me how annoying it is, everything feels wrong because the seasons change and if you aren't already doing things to prepare it's all so wasteful. Even 'surviving' winter isn't enjoyable if you just sit in camp for most of it, I like the game and want to play through all of it but it's seems so much more about min/maxing time constantly, then it is about even staying alive. You don't get to experiment and mess around unless you want to lose that run or your life if you're going to respawn and waste even more time, you have to know what to do already and then constantly be doing those things. Would be nice if there even was options to have any kind of tutorial or guidelines but based on the older article with the head guy about intrinsic vs extrinsic rewards they think it's more rewarding to die dozens of time without learning fuck all?
DST can be tough to learn for sure. There is a lot that you need to know and you risk losing it all for making small mistakes but trust me when I say that it does get easier. Eventually you will get to a point where the seasons and surviving in general are downright trivial. The years will pass without you realising and you can spend as much time as you like doing whatever it is you enjoy in the game (building, fighting, etc.) I guess, if you're worried about not being able to do anything for fear of dying and having to restart, make some meat effigies, take life giving amulets with you, or even play on an endless world so you can respawn if you die without losing the world. There's no shame in playing that way.
@@DemonRebuilt Yeah you're right there, we got a bunch of mods to make the game more enjoyable so you can respawn without flying to the spawn point every time and seeing each other on the map etc. Definitely a lot of good mods out there considering I never really ever use mods on my games, didn't really expect a reply and was more or less venting about the game but thanks for trying to help either way, you're a good guy :)
hey man great video. i havent played dst in awhile and want to get back into it. my biggest issue is how over whelming it is startting out and i dont know what to prioritize which makes me not even want to play. if you could make a video about the first 20 days what to focus on that would be amazing. thanks alot keep it up!
For me, it's the weather. Summers and winters are absolutely brutal, and not only freeze progress, but shit catches fire, and a deerclops camped my base until everything was destroyed. How do I make something safe, from weather, from monsters, from lightning and fire.
I didn't even know you could rotate the screen! The game doesn't even tell you how to move or interact with things. There's a difference between lack of hand holding and "good luck figuring out the controls noob, ha ha!" Thank you for this. Of course now I have to figure out HOW to rotate the screen...
I play mostly single player, because my pc sometimes cannot handle multiplayer, and I can relate to a lot you've said, especially the rotation of camera. As I watched other players I begin to get better. When I start playing ROG my biggest difficulty was summer. I died every time...now I can manage but still, is my least favorite season and I always struggle to find things to do, or if I would have enough niter, etc...ugh. I also, not very proud to say, never killed a giant by myself. I use them for resources but let other mobs kill (tentacle, tree guards, etc) LOL So, this giant comment just to say: I know you're making DST content and, speaking about seasons and bosses could be some ideas for future beginner/intermediate videos. Even though I play very little I love DST content. It's fun I and feel like I learn a lot. On a side note, I'm the kind of person who watch gameplays from start to finish but I also like this new format of your videos. Thanks!
For ROG, always force an autumn start. It's stupid how they make a spring start a possibility. Finding enough ice for even 1 flingo is hard, let alone 2-3 that you might want to protect your base if it's expanded beyond that. And the dragonfly is the hardest of the giants so it's bad that a spring start usually leads to dragonfly + 0-1 flingos only.
Screen rotation is a big tip I took away from this, i always wanted to keep my camera facing north for some reason, helpful to do when you actually know what north has to offer but in a randomly generated game you haven't lived life in it doesn't really matter what direction you face
I really needed help because my friend convinced me to buy don't starve together, but then they never taught me how to play and they only played with me once. This is a really hard game and I'm having lots of trouble.
the hardest part about this game for me is that im a coward. those hands that try to steal your fire, the nightmare creatures, even just watching my sanity go down fills me with so much anxiety that i wanna quit. these guides help though, so thank you!!
I'm having alot of trouble with dying all the time... I'll die a couple of times and then find the stone to come back to life but then die again.... I end up giving up on the game due to this.... do you have a video or anything that can help me :(
It was fine till summer but then in all the map I wasn't able to find more than 1 clock knight which gave me 2 gears which I spent on the fridge so when summer came everything just burned cause I couldn't build the machine that automatically puts off fires. What a bummer
I guess you could have hidden in the caves for a while but it would have been tough to survive in there with none of your stuff from above. There are many more clockworks in the ruins but it's fairly dangerous in there.
I never know what to do in this game! Do I have to make a "camp" with walls and just survive all the time? Isn't there like a story to follow, dungeons, something? I know caves are a thing, but idk... Also it's very hard!
The direction of the game is a difficult thing for a lot of people. It's a sandbox game so at the end of the day, you do whatever you feel like, after you take care of your needs of course. Some people build megabases, some fight bosses and collect loot, others will give themselves some kind of challenge and restart the world when they're done. Often you just kinda notice something new, play around with it until you understand what it does and then you uncover something else. By the time you've explored everything the game has to offer, you will have played many many hours.
TL:DR: I. You don't need a base by day 1, you'll be fine wihout cooking food or a fireplace. You don't even need food for the first day, and it's better to explore the entire map before settling down. II. Challenge mobs when exploring, you'll get a idea of lethality levels, and how to fight. Get comfortable with insanity and surviving in the dark. The time spent chilling next to a campfire could be spend exploring, (Unless you're playing truth or dare :^) P.S. Hot termal stone allows you to survive in the dark. III. Rotate your screen to look at the back of your character while walking so you can see more, and see behind rocks. IV. Shift-click items between inentories, contr-click for single items. Organise inventory in whatever way suits you, but know how much you have so you don't have to scour your inventory to know what you have. V. Collect a buttload of tumblewheat for early goodies you'll need anyway. VI. Use the Geometric placement mod (optional imo) VII. Plant all the berry bushes, Farms are Fugly (specifically basic farms) VIII. Get a weapon before day 8, and get comfortable with kiting.
I am sort of stuck in a phase where, when I started the game (and now) where I don't like rotating the screen. I don't know what my problem is. I play on PC, so it's not like it's hard, I just don't. However, I am gonna work on trying to rotate the screen more. Not rotating the screen has caused me death probably a couple times. So thanks for the tips!!
I didn't rotate my screen at all when I first started either. Now I find myself trying to rotate the screen in other games haha. You'll get into the habit in no time!
3:10 "Get comfortable being insane" - good life advice as well HAHA

I've owned the game since it first launched and I still have yet to make it through winter. I'm a terrible player.
Camp near the Beefalo Place fires along the way run around the fires as you make your way to the Beefalo for protection that's what I did and make sure to have a shit ton of bunnies
My first ever playthrough I made it to day 33. Doing great, I suddenly hear big ass footsteps and my character says "that sounds bad"

- find spiders
- make birdcage & get bird
- make crockpot
You now have infinite food via meatballs by feeding cooked monster meat to a bird for eggs.
Works best as/with a Wendy/Webber as both can mass farm spiders with near zero effort.
If deerclops spawns (usually near the end of winter at night) run the fuck away from base so he spawns away and won't wreck your shit and then ether leave him or come back to fight for his eye later.
me too bestie me too ;-;
I made it to summer but our base caught fire because our friend ate all the gears but one and we didn't realise until before summer approached because I was trying to make the thing that keeps your base cool to prepare. Then our whole base caught fire in the middle of summer and the summer boss was also destroying our whole world then all my friends died. I made it to autumn still alive with enough supplies to survive but considering my entire base was destroyed and everyone else was dead there was no reason to keep going. I also killed the autumn boss before I quit because why not.
I didn't know there was a map lmao. Game changer

green caps are my god, I have a green cap near my base and when I’m losing my whole ass mind, I just gotta walk down a road and nyoooom
Starving gang rise up
Flowers? what flowers pft
The biggest game-changer for me was learning that I could catch spiders in traps. Also, very early on, I played my own game and restarted the day every time I died, that way I learned how to fix my most costly mistakes. Finally, don't worry about being perfect. There are different kinds of gamers, so if you need to alter the game a bit to enjoy it, that's perfectly okay. :) Great vid!
Frogs too.
Shit. How do you restart the day when you die? Lol.
No, no mods allowed. Play vanilla or do not play.
@@spankyjeffro5320 I think OP was referring to mods. Maybe world customization
And here I thought the game was about wandering aimlessly and to not starve. Thanks for your guide!!
Two tips I always give to people, new or veteran, is to carry seeds on you at all times. Not only will they come in handy when you finally get a farm set up or are playing as Wickerbottom or Wormwood (who gains Sanity when he plants things) they last for ages and are easily acquired via birds. This makes them a great Emergency food for if you're out exploring the world and run out of meatballs and have wandered too far from home.
Another tip is that I set up a flower garden in my base to spawn butterflies, butterflies make exquisite filler for Meatballs and are the healing potato chip of Don't Starve. They feed you and give 8 HP a pop! Not to mention they are a decent way to spawn Krampus, collect Souls (if you're playing as Wortox) are required to make the Glossamer Saddle and farm for the ever elusive Butter. Granted this farm will not work in Winter but that's where ice comes into play or any reserve berries you haven't yet picked from your bushes yet. 3 out of 4 times of the year the farm will always be up and spawning butterflies. CTRL+F is the key to punching the butterfly. (Unless you tinkered with your key bindings then Idk what to tell you) To catch butterflies you will need a bug net (2 silk, 1 rope, a few twigs under the Survival Tab) you catch them then hold them in your mouse cursor. It will say "Plant" when you however over suitable terrain. (You cannot plant butterflies on made mad turf. E.g: Wood flooring, Carpeted flooring, etc. If you want to you will have to dig up the turf with a pitchfork, plant them, then put the turf back on the ground.
I always make one of these but I realized that the less flowers and more people the more butterflies spawn, but you want more flowers if you plan on having bees in your base then you should do a lot of flowers
300 hours in : there are hotkeys for items?!
Hot keys are a must for kiting certain mobs and bosses
nice name
3:49 I like having my camera at one specific angle, but rotating your camera is important so I just got a mod to reset my camera angle to default with the push of a button
5 months late, but have a name for that mod?
@@TGCidolfus0830 It's called Reset Camera
It's always good to look back and reflect what you did wrong. I pick Woodie at my 1st ever playthrough, and I had NO idea what happened to me. I dun even know I eat wood.
I keep watching this video because it gives me so much ideas of surviving more in DST. Thanks Demon!
I wish someone told me about mods especially the mini-map mod.
Just saying, ive heard minimap adds lag to mp servers bcuz it requires the server to update the map much more often
Fyre depends how much the map is zoomed in/out
@@fyreisboss767 Its a client side thing.
It depends on a lot of factors.
I like the following mods:
- Geometric placement
- Realistic placement
- Camp Security (for managing privacy and people hammering or burning my stuff)
- Plants Cluster (for planting in blocks, I hate planting one plant at a time. It is more expensive since not only require the dug plants but a % of the resource).
- Smart Minisign (it automatically puts a minisign with the imagen of the first element inside it, I use it when I play with people I don't know, who usually ruins the order of the items)
- In case of playing with extremely newbie people, I use Campfire Respawn, so they can respawn quickly and stop draining my sanity because the were killed by a tallbird or some shit.
- Shipwrecked turfs/Hamlet turfs/Craftable turfs/Pastoral Style/Farmplot: for crafting turfs and other decorative stuff (does not change the mechanics of playing at all, but I like having a nice looking base!)
- DST Greenhouse Supplies, adds a horticulture tab which adds the posibility to use planters... to plant plants. I like it, because it adds a whole new gameplay by allowing users to make a fully fledge sea base, by having crops. It is expensive, slow, not for early game. I don't use it to grow caves plants though!
- QM Chests. Adds a quantum entangled chests, which allows users to "teletransport" items from one chest to it's counterpart. I configure the mod to be hard, meaning it is hard to get the blueprint, very hard to make every chest, and also to drain a lot of sanity, making it only for emergencies.
- Quick drop: To drop items right in the same spot I'm standing. This helps me to put statues in the right place. For design purposes only.
@@chartomosfil1278 yes but i dont really know all the details but i CAN tell you it does without a doubt cause lots of lag
Your voice is soothing.
The only base to setup at the starting days is the temporary one(campfire,science machine)next to resource rich areas like forests or rock biomes
I recommend to new players: increase autumn to long
Practise killing nightmares in a new world as wigfrid
Kiting pattern is: dodge attack, attack, repeat
Therefore you have enough time to prepare for winter whilst also not having to worry about nightmares
Get gears by digging graves or collecting tumbling weeds (not smoke able)
as a WX78 player, i can conffirm that getting gears is extremely useful.
Just started playing this game on Apple Arcade and whoah am i overwhelmed. I love the game and exploring what everything does has been fun so far! Thank you for making a video that taught me more than I expected. This game is so layered and deep.
The one on Apple Arcade is don’t starve not don’t starve together
@@slim3rs172 just like you
I love this game. I have 319 hours in DST, and I'm still watching beginner guides and learning.
Please make a mid-game guide. Mid-game is for people who haven't defeated fuelweaver yet but have cleared all or some of the ruins. You can focus on animal farms (spider, bunny, pigs, hounds) and how to deal with deerclops/bearger on a regular basis.
Good idea. I often have people telling me they don't know what to do at this point of the game.
I also wouldn't recommend digging up grass unless you already have rot available to fertilize it
Wtf, i can fertilize with rot? My God i'm so stupid 🤦🏻
Very glad I watched this video! I didn't know about Geometric Placement. I downloaded it right after you mentioned it. Thank you for that.
"Get comfortable with being insane."
Way ahead of you, chief.
Being a new player and having only survived 15 days before dying, this helps so much.
I just started after 10 or so run I finished 22 day. Rule number 1 don't make base till day 6 just roam and remember douge method to do no hit attack.
That’s not bad
I met the channel thanks to dst season 6 RoT, and i really miss a guide to the ruins/ rush ruins. I didn t find any good videos of how to do it, but only a good video from jazzy telling why to do it. Also thanks for your videos, they really helps a lot.
What I do when I play this game
1. Gather resources and camping outside for few days
2. Make base/fire etc
3. Find food recourses, dig it and plant (make sure you have Guano)
4. Farming Silk
5. Go into sinkhole/ wormhole
6. Explore and more resources
7. Died on winter (every f time)
just made it past winter for the first time by basically making everyone else stop playing until it was over and scrimping by on our very limited food only to find out spring isnt much easier
Me and my siblings even made it to summer (but only bc we modified the winter time to be very short) and got killed by forest fire
Don't starve beginneers guide
Saying that while fighting an endgame boss
haha I knew you'd bring up geometric placement, ive seen your ocd in the hamlet playthrough.
I actually kinda like having a little asymmetrical farms and plots, adds to the "homemade" feel sometimes
Great video m8!
hey, thanks for the tips! I'm about to start this game tonight with a friend!
Don't start off your beginner's guide with end-game boss spoilers. 0:15
"get used to feeling insane..." - best life advice you could give...applies to the game and real life...! :)
Really helpful, I played the game for a lot of time, but I learned new things from your guide!
I don't think I'm too keen on the grass, twigs, bushes digging and replanting strategy though. Although it may be a good temporary solution for getting enough food in the early game it's really bad in the long run. You basically waste all your time in arranging all those things that are eventually going to get diseased and turn into rot and twigs indefinitely. That if you haven't turned off diseases though. In your case it is a nice strategy, but I wouldn't really recommend it to new players who haven't mingled with the world settings.
What I'd do is chop down as many twiggy trees as possible and replant them in my base - they don't wither and give you twigs automatically. Besides, upon chopping down a fully grown twiggy tree you get 2 cones and you can grow your forest as time passes.
Regarding food, farms are a good source for a controlled production of dragon pies, and dragon pies give you 40 hp each at the cost of only one fruit and some measly resources you can find pretty much on the ground. That said if players feel comfortable enough fighting spiders they could use tents and glands for health restoration and completely dump the farms.
Getting a fridge, even 2 is pivotal early on. Forget berry bushes, mining enough ice can be enough for you to be good for a year or two ahead, because ice doesn't spoil. You can make the game spawn icebergs by walking along the edge of the map during winter.
Seriously, if you don't have diseases turned off and your grass area isn't enclosed properly don't bother planting bushes, twigs and grass, it's a horrible idea.
Everything else is as good an advice as it gets :)
Honestly, I would recommend to anyone new to the game to turn disease off to begin with. I really hope that it gets reworked in future but right now, it is not a mechanic that adds anything to the game and as such will never be using it in any of my worlds. And even if disease was enabled, I would still be transplanting grass as it's one of the most heavily-required resources. Having a decent supply nearby is invaluable and that would also let you look after it in summer with a flingo. Twiggy Trees I can make my peace with if you want to go down that route.
Besides that, I do agree that ice is ultimately better than Berry Bushes in the long run but for starting off, Berry Bushes are a really easy way of getting both meat and filler. This is a beginner's guide after all. Some players are still struggling to make it to winter to get ice.
I do find it very interesting how other people play the game though. Some of the things you mentioned are ways of playing that I honestly don't even consider much anymore. Sometimes I even forget that disease exists tbh. I guess that's one of the best things about DST. It allows for such a broad range of play styles :)
This review was awesome man, keep it up!!
"Let me know what you are having difficulty with"..
(Rant) Well ok. With my mate. I really have difficulty with my mate.
My mate is unreliable to the point of parody.
hey there, ive been a huge fan since 2015 and watched every single episode of ur series.
Im truly inspired and wouldnt have made it this far without u
everytime i play this game i recommend ur channel to my friends and family.
one of those friends is called Lukas, he recently go diagnosed with testicle cancer and is struggling to fight rn, his insanity is really low rn
all i ask is that u keep him in your thoughts
I'm sorry to hear about Lukas. Hoping for a good outcome. Tell him to try some cooked cactus flesh for the sanity loss btw.
Amazing video. Short and direct to the point.
for new players, don't use weapons in first slot like this video tip. Have a stack of twigs in first slot, or grass even. Frogs or hanging wines for example will take the first inv slot and remove the item, but if it's a stack of something, will only remove one of the items in the stack, so you only lose one twig instead of a whole weapon.
Don't live in fear of frogs mate. Put your weapons where they belong.
Don't you think it's better to have 99% time set up hot keys ready rather than permamently preparing for a few frogs?
@@raydil99 fanboy. If I wanted, I would find every single time demon lost his weapon due to frogs and wines. And this was new player tip, you saying this wont happen to new players? I have invested 600 hours + in this game and constantly play with new players, and they always ALWAYS drop their weapons. It's fine, I understand preparing for hot keys, but don't fucking call it beginner tips then. And btw, you can perfectly fine NOT have weapons in slot one and still do end game content and hotkeys and setup. Just saying. Fanboy. Gonna unsub anyway, been with demon since he was a small channel, where he actually just chill and play. Now he tryharding for clicks and complain, I'm out.
@@teipkep lmao wtf u stressing about, it's just some freaking frogs 😂😂😂. Better tip would be to avoid frogs or tell how to kite them...
@@raydil99 It's probably better to just change the hotkey so that 1 = inv slot 2, 2 = inv slot 3 and just put a dud item in slot 1 which you'll never hotkey press since you've changed the binding.
You can place bushes and grass to your base??? BOY! THAT SAVES SO MUCH TIME! Thank you!
Need more of this guides please. This was very helpful.
Thx for these tips, I’m planning to start playing this game, you helped me big time!
I like to build a Science Machine ASAP. Then a backpack, shovel (for twigs, bushes, grass) and hammer from that. Destroy the science machine to get some loot back. Collect flowers as you go, for rot. By the time you find a base you are ready to set up.
Pretty much this.
Or just be Wicker, lol
@@Bluehoshiflower You shouldnt play 1 character for the sake of not having to make a science machine especially when an alch is so easy to make. Hell plus if you struggle with sanity the bonus you get for protoing those basic tools is huge.
@@CFRTRams I was just joking around
I'd recommend making a spear with that science machine and a log suit if you want. You don't need a science machine for making a hammer btw.
"Be comfortable being insane" lololol ok imma sub
This is actually by far the best guide I've seen so far for this game lol
me who has over 500 hours on dst/ds so far "Ya, I do wish I knew that. Oh well, learning was one of the funnest parts of this game anyways:D."
just picked this game up tonight while looking for a game i could play with my brother, since i'm on PC and he's on Mac
seems like something i can get into
Its a pain to play with my cousin he’s always asking how to craft something we die at DAY 7 ALL THE TIME CAUSE OF HIM!?!? this is a helpful video hopefully he doesn’t just skip this vid
"Hello new player, it would help if you rotated your screen" "how do i rotate my screen?" "by rotating it, duh" what a great video -_-
Q and E to rotate if you're on PC
when i first started in dont starve: giant edition i took the fire rod from the the fire hounds and was so lucky there was a pig village where i was running
Lol, chest piece is really dangerous for newb haha
"Get comfortable being insane" what do you mean, I already am!
My tumbleweed obsession is now validated!
1: how do i build a base?
2: what if i get lost and forgot where my base is?
3: how do you plant berries bushes
4: how do i progress with armour
5: im confused on what gnome and mystery box is for, maybe you can help?
6: is the chestnut hard to find? Got in on my first day died at 2nd day
7: how do i explore? I keep going back to place i was before
8: do i get to explore the ocean?
Sorry for many questions i just got the mobile version
Got the game recently can't wait to play
Your gonna feel pain just like I have. :)
If youre playing on M&K you can click a spot across a body of water and you'll walk there automatically no matter how much far you have to walk around.
Me, who has never played this game npr is planning to play it: *ah, yes. An essential guide.*
Never know what to do in this game. Wish there was an option for tutorial guides. Thanks, this helped some
Very helpful guide! Thanks for the video
He :you will never be able to get enough nightmare fuel
ME when i dont play maxwel : 2 chest full of nightmare fuel which i dont know for what to use
Also me when i play maxwell: I don't need light, i need nightmare fuel
Thanks bro, i just bought the game and this vid really helped me.
i had to watch this at x1.25 speed and i am not even a native english speaker, you are so (too) chill bro :)
I mean I haven't played the game in years and getting into DST with my friend has reminded me how annoying it is, everything feels wrong because the seasons change and if you aren't already doing things to prepare it's all so wasteful. Even 'surviving' winter isn't enjoyable if you just sit in camp for most of it, I like the game and want to play through all of it but it's seems so much more about min/maxing time constantly, then it is about even staying alive. You don't get to experiment and mess around unless you want to lose that run or your life if you're going to respawn and waste even more time, you have to know what to do already and then constantly be doing those things. Would be nice if there even was options to have any kind of tutorial or guidelines but based on the older article with the head guy about intrinsic vs extrinsic rewards they think it's more rewarding to die dozens of time without learning fuck all?
DST can be tough to learn for sure. There is a lot that you need to know and you risk losing it all for making small mistakes but trust me when I say that it does get easier. Eventually you will get to a point where the seasons and surviving in general are downright trivial. The years will pass without you realising and you can spend as much time as you like doing whatever it is you enjoy in the game (building, fighting, etc.) I guess, if you're worried about not being able to do anything for fear of dying and having to restart, make some meat effigies, take life giving amulets with you, or even play on an endless world so you can respawn if you die without losing the world. There's no shame in playing that way.
@@DemonRebuilt Yeah you're right there, we got a bunch of mods to make the game more enjoyable so you can respawn without flying to the spawn point every time and seeing each other on the map etc. Definitely a lot of good mods out there considering I never really ever use mods on my games, didn't really expect a reply and was more or less venting about the game but thanks for trying to help either way, you're a good guy :)
Liking the new content!
hey man great video. i havent played dst in awhile and want to get back into it. my biggest issue is how over whelming it is startting out and i dont know what to prioritize which makes me not even want to play. if you could make a video about the first 20 days what to focus on that would be amazing. thanks alot keep it up!
So you are new a gen trash go in the game and figure it out it is called trial and error
@@bendouglas8546People are allowed to ask for help sometimes lmao. Just because people struggled originally doesn't mean everyone has to
For me, it's the weather. Summers and winters are absolutely brutal, and not only freeze progress, but shit catches fire, and a deerclops camped my base until everything was destroyed.
How do I make something safe, from weather, from monsters, from lightning and fire.
"Get Comfortable being insane"
Ye I could work with that quote.
I didn't even know you could rotate the screen! The game doesn't even tell you how to move or interact with things. There's a difference between lack of hand holding and "good luck figuring out the controls noob, ha ha!" Thank you for this. Of course now I have to figure out HOW to rotate the screen...
you can also set the trees and bushes on fire with the torch at night and then disarm your torch to not use it up
Kickass dude. Love your ds vids.
my friend got me this game for my birthday so thank you so much for this!
Good luck!
This made me feel comfortable because I play mobile with lag and I can only play alone
I play mostly single player, because my pc sometimes cannot handle multiplayer, and I can relate to a lot you've said, especially the rotation of camera. As I watched other players I begin to get better.
When I start playing ROG my biggest difficulty was summer. I died every time...now I can manage but still, is my least favorite season and I always struggle to find things to do, or if I would have enough niter, etc...ugh.
I also, not very proud to say, never killed a giant by myself. I use them for resources but let other mobs kill (tentacle, tree guards, etc) LOL
So, this giant comment just to say: I know you're making DST content and, speaking about seasons and bosses could be some ideas for future beginner/intermediate videos. Even though I play very little I love DST content. It's fun I and feel like I learn a lot.
On a side note, I'm the kind of person who watch gameplays from start to finish but I also like this new format of your videos.
Thanks!
For ROG, always force an autumn start. It's stupid how they make a spring start a possibility. Finding enough ice for even 1 flingo is hard, let alone 2-3 that you might want to protect your base if it's expanded beyond that. And the dragonfly is the hardest of the giants so it's bad that a spring start usually leads to dragonfly + 0-1 flingos only.
@@TheDropdeadZed I know. I put autumn start as a preset world 😁
Screen rotation is a big tip I took away from this, i always wanted to keep my camera facing north for some reason, helpful to do when you actually know what north has to offer but in a randomly generated game you haven't lived life in it doesn't really matter what direction you face
I really needed help because my friend convinced me to buy don't starve together, but then they never taught me how to play and they only played with me once. This is a really hard game and I'm having lots of trouble.
Helped so much, thanks!
3:11 "Get comfortable being insane" sounds unfortunately lmao
the hardest part about this game for me is that im a coward. those hands that try to steal your fire, the nightmare creatures, even just watching my sanity go down fills me with so much anxiety that i wanna quit. these guides help though, so thank you!!
I was the same when I started. Things become a lot less scary the more time you spend with them.
@@DemonRebuilt omg im so glad im not the only one, thanks so much!! ill def be doing more research then :)
I've only ever killed one thing in DST, it was ONE spider and it scared the shit outta me-
I may help to have a big stack in the 1st inventory slot if you are fighting frogs.
you should really never build a regular campfire unless you're absolutely desperate
just wait until you can make a fire pit
Pretty good guide!
yes
6:28 As A console player I feel soo sad that Mods like that are not allowed in The Console Edition
Ps: IDK if I can but MODS in console
Definitely recommend playing Wendy for beginners. Although it does make you lazy - hounds, spiders, bees, bats, monkeys etc almost become too easy!
I'm having alot of trouble with dying all the time... I'll die a couple of times and then find the stone to come back to life but then die again.... I end up giving up on the game due to this.... do you have a video or anything that can help me :(
It was fine till summer but then in all the map I wasn't able to find more than 1 clock knight which gave me 2 gears which I spent on the fridge so when summer came everything just burned cause I couldn't build the machine that automatically puts off fires. What a bummer
I guess you could have hidden in the caves for a while but it would have been tough to survive in there with none of your stuff from above. There are many more clockworks in the ruins but it's fairly dangerous in there.
I never know what to do in this game! Do I have to make a "camp" with walls and just survive all the time? Isn't there like a story to follow, dungeons, something? I know caves are a thing, but idk...
Also it's very hard!
The direction of the game is a difficult thing for a lot of people. It's a sandbox game so at the end of the day, you do whatever you feel like, after you take care of your needs of course. Some people build megabases, some fight bosses and collect loot, others will give themselves some kind of challenge and restart the world when they're done. Often you just kinda notice something new, play around with it until you understand what it does and then you uncover something else. By the time you've explored everything the game has to offer, you will have played many many hours.
I'd love a dst character tier list and a ds one
TL:DR:
I. You don't need a base by day 1, you'll be fine wihout cooking food or a fireplace. You don't even need food for the first day, and it's better to explore the entire map before settling down.
II. Challenge mobs when exploring, you'll get a idea of lethality levels, and how to fight. Get comfortable with insanity and surviving in the dark. The time spent chilling next to a campfire could be spend exploring, (Unless you're playing truth or dare :^) P.S. Hot termal stone allows you to survive in the dark.
III. Rotate your screen to look at the back of your character while walking so you can see more, and see behind rocks.
IV. Shift-click items between inentories, contr-click for single items. Organise inventory in whatever way suits you, but know how much you have so you don't have to scour your inventory to know what you have.
V. Collect a buttload of tumblewheat for early goodies you'll need anyway.
VI. Use the Geometric placement mod (optional imo)
VII. Plant all the berry bushes, Farms are Fugly (specifically basic farms)
VIII. Get a weapon before day 8, and get comfortable with kiting.
I am sort of stuck in a phase where, when I started the game (and now) where I don't like rotating the screen. I don't know what my problem is. I play on PC, so it's not like it's hard, I just don't. However, I am gonna work on trying to rotate the screen more. Not rotating the screen has caused me death probably a couple times. So thanks for the tips!!
I didn't rotate my screen at all when I first started either. Now I find myself trying to rotate the screen in other games haha. You'll get into the habit in no time!
I love this video thank you so much!!
this was extremely helpful
I got attacked by like 5 hounds on the first wave of hounds and all of em came together
Thank you for this video! 😀💐
Farms should be used for specific crops, like pepper, garlic, dragonfruit. Not an early game thing though.
The thing i strugle with is a reliable food source i have had about 4 times now that i died of hunger and i have been playing for 3 days
Burn some trees. Build a Crock-Pot. Kill some spiders and get some berries/carrots. GG
