I don't hate it but I don't think it's a very good game either. The sandbox mode is easy and you don't get much incentive to keep playing once you complete the four season cycle. To be frank it's boring as hell. Playing with a friend the DST version makes it slightly less boring but the map is still pretty small overall. The game relies too much on the community thinking up new ways to play it to remain relevant.

Don't you have better places to advertise to ? I'm genuinely asking.

It's fun until you learn it and then everything becomes trivially easy and solved. They shit up Don't Starve Together full of cosmetics, trading and gay nugame shit so I completely lost interest. It needed gimmicky challenge maps like the single player one to be properly fun anyway, the only fun I had with it was joining packed servers full of noobs and ghosts and surviving the resource exhaustion and sanity drain.

I'm not aware of new DLC, what is it?

I remember liking the game but finding it too repetitive and drawn out. I always gave up on my saves after awhile.

Why is there so much gay porn of Webber? I mean, I guess he's kind of cute but he's not at all the kind of character I'd expect homos and fujoshis to be drawn towards.

I heard this is the greatest video game about Communism.

It's an okay Toejam And Earl game, hunger mechanic is a bit over aggressive if you ask me, but I suppose that's the name of the game.

i havent played it since vanilla. i dont dislike it but it didnt really hook me.

i think that makes it one of the only survival games where survival isnt an afterthought

Don't Starve was fun as long as I was struggling to keep up with the game. Boat starve was very fun and pretty comfy too. Haven't played it much since tropical dlc came out

>>15438663

DLC is cancer.

Paying for entertainment is for idiots.

Yeah, but it can be a bit much you know. I get the Gate Hunt is an afterthought of a goal, but it could actually be a pretty good game if you upped the fuck out of enemy and item spawns and turned off hunger.

>>15440952

well im sure theres mods if what you want is that simple.

>>15439516

Not really. Eventually you figure out how broken the crock pot is and that it lets you mass produce food from useless ingredients and your hunger is trivialized. The game really was more fun and challenging eating non-dish foods.

>>15440952

The combat system isn't much, I don't see the point of removing food gathering, base building and management and just leaving combat. Leave that entirely up to other games.

>>15441076

Yeah, you know that's completely reasonable. I should look for different games for things like that. Nice conversation.

there was this birds eye view survival crafting game that was freeware like 18 years ago called atrium

>>15438707

Fuck off youngfag, there used to be things called expansion packs.

Nickling and diming for content that was made before the release is what is scummy.

Expanding on the game with new content is where its at.

Compared to all the other early access survival shit, Don't Starve did better than anyone on /v/ would have expected.

By itself I wouldn't call it "game of the year", it had very shitty flaws at its core (unbalanced characters, shitty combat…), but it took a core aspect of the genre, hunger, mastered it and built its game around it. Other games should follow that example.

thanks for the followup I'll check it out later.

now that i think about it, it wasnt really a game where you just mowed through baddies between meals either.

Eh, I really tried to like the game but it just wasn't that fun, I also tried shipwrecked which I found even more boring.

Don't Starve is still going? Once I got a survival strategy for single-player, it was a solved game to me…

It's a solid 7/10. Credit for not going full pixel art though.
