An evening with habie147 - Bootstrap Island (Part 2)

And so the Bootstrap Island playthrough continues. Our brave hero, habie147, (me) faces VR survival challenges unheard of in gaming history such as, getting lost, dehydration, scary whistling and maybe even a tree truncheon. Of all the let's plays out there, this is certainly one of the let's plays of all time. Enjoy your weekly does of raw Bootstrap Island gameplay you smoothbrain.

the happiness that courses through my body at any habie upload is what staves off the depression

THIS❤❤❤

Indeed❤

[@jtimleck]

And Habie, if you read this… I guess I mean watching you talk about “plan B” and “tree dildos”, and crash planes into the sea, and made me and my partner giggle and laugh SO FUCKING hard… all while I’ve been living through the most hellacious mental health in my 60 years. So, yeah I love your vids. Short, long… whatever you want to make, I’m sure it’ll be great. PS we never skip “smooth brains” 🧠 (dude you are funny **AF**! 🤣)

[@Atmatan]

The way he talks it's like he thinks everyone hates him 🤔

[@TheOneTrueJack]

I'm vaguely disturbed by the realization that I could easily have watched 2 more hours of this.

[@HonorableAssassins]

thats about the length of the entire game, currently. You climb the hill then hike to the shipwreck and that's it for 0.1.2, games basically a demo. A very fun demo, but it still ends when you complete what would be the game's intro. as a roguelike, it only currently has 3 unlockable items for new playthroughs, all of which get unlocked if you just survive 10 days. the bones currently are by far my favorite survival experience in VR, but it is basically a tech demo rn.

[@TheOneTrueJack]

@@HonorableAssassins Oh I know that's the loop and I've watched a handful of other folks play it, but it's much more satisfying when Habie plays for some reason.

[@bradleygonzalez7952]

I’m a simple man. Habie uploads content, I consume the content.

[@DH-xw6jp]

I have a few tips for you, I will try to group them by category. *FIRE:* • The _Red Moss_ that is found growing on certain trees can be used as tinder for starting fires. • You can use an unloaded _Pistol_ or _Musket_ to start fires if you cannot find any rocks, just cock the hammer and hold it close to the tinder when you pull the trigger, it may require a few tries to get the angle correct. Torches can also be lit this way. • Alternatively, if you don't have a pistol and only one rock, you can also pick up a _Lock_ broken from a chest to strike sparks. • If you have to choose between _Bark Scrap, Red Moss,_ or _Coconuts_ for tinder grab the coconuts. Not only does the husk give you four (4) pieces of tinder, it also provides food and drink that you can use during the night. • You cannot use _Wet Wood or Wet Coconut Husks_ to start a fire, but you can place them on an already burning fire, it will dry then ignite normally. • If it is nearing night and you have access to a supply of _Coconuts_ but cannot find wood, you can start a fire with just husks and continue to add more husks throughout the night, the husk burns quickly so do not add it all at once. The fire will not be very big, but it is better than no fire at all. *FOOD - WATER* • You can poke holes in a _Coconut_ with the _Knife_ instead of cracking it open to ensure that you do not spill any of the liquid inside. • A _Bottle_ holds _multiple coconuts_ worth of liquid, simply poke holes in the coconut and pour it into an open bottle. • _Coconuts_ can be broken open on any rocky terrain feature (rock walls, boulders, or on the ground), you do not need to hold a rock to break it. • _Cooked Meats_ provide the best hunger regeneration, this applies to _Clams_ too even though they can be eaten raw. • You can stab multiple _Fish_ or _Crabs_ on a single _Thin Stick_ while out collecting them for food and cook them all at once. I believe four (4) can reliably fit a stick, make sure to hold it upright or they slide off. • All three (3) _Monster_ (Bat, Dog, Lizard) types can be eaten, after killing them you have to repeatedly stab them with the knife until a piece of meat pops out of them. *WEAPONS* • The _Pistol_ can explode out of your hand if you over fill it with _Black Powder._ It will fly behind you and is easily lost. I believe the _Musket_ does the same, but have not personally tested it. • Both the pistol and musket must be _Dried_ after they get _Wet,_ they will not be able to fire immediately after swimming. They dry over time, but can also be laid next to a fire to dry quicker. Laying them _on the fire_ however will cause them to go off if loaded. • Both firearms only use _One Bullet_ at a time, you cannot load multiple balls to act as a shotgun (the extras will just roll out of the barrel). • The _Powder Flask_ and _Bullet Box_ both eventually run out, but this is easy to manage if you replace them each time you open a chest that has a fresh supply. *GENERAL TIPS* • _Health_ regenerates slowly _over time._ I believe the speed is tied to your thirst and hunger levels, but have not confirmed or not. • You can turn on a _Narrator Voice_ which will give hints occasionally and provide you with warnings when your _Hunger, Thirst,_ or _Heath_ get low. You know some of these already (obviously), but I added them in case anyone else needed the tips.

[@KiTho06]

It’s sad to see he ignored it the first time you posted it. Maybe he wants to figure everything out for himself.

Woww 🔥 Almost refunded before seeing these videos! Combined with what you write i feel more assured this game is a keeper - as i now see how much it actually have to offer further down the line. Amazing videos, even better commentary as you play. Instantly subscribed!✌️Well, time to give it another go! 😅

i have not laughed out loud for a while but 4:34 made me habie: theres going to be coconuts and if not there is always option b *looks at gun* little update i tried option b, it works

I fucking laughed… and raised my eyebrows lmao

[@rossbearson3761]

“Option B” was mentioned so casually as well😂 can we get an “option B” shaker cup?

[@XzakesIThink]

lol the shaker cup would great😂

[@mattumbras7003]

Listen, Habie, can I call you Habie? I'm not trying to make demands, and I love your normal content, but these Bootstrap Island videos are incredible and I'm dying for more already.

[@benphua]

Agreeeed

[@kgwotsquat2007]

13 hour diabolical shift up since 4am. However a habie upload brings a smile to my face. Thank you for bringing some joy to the world good sir! Keep on doing what you're doing.

[@doctorduck2000]

I had really bad stick drift, contact cleaner works wonders. You don't realize how bad the drift was until you don't have to constantly fight your joystick...

[@andrewburke1554]

Yes this ^^^. I've had bad stick drift a few times. A few squirts of contact cleaner and it was good as new.

[@randilldo]

God the Internet is truly a weird place. I have loved VR ever since the first day I tried it sometime in 2016 and wanted to find a community that enjoys it as much as myself, so I settled for the smoothbrains. I found your YT in the earlier days of you getting into VR and I really enjoyed your passion for it. To be fair, the people out there making content at the time for VR set a pretty low bar, but you were at least the most authentic of them and we know you are extremely serious about being a content "creator", which is what I enjoy about you. I guess that is a compliment? Anyway, keep it up H, it has been a pleasure to annoy you in your streams the last 8 months and I apologize for hassling you all the time. Much love, RANDILL-DO... GET MY F***N NAME RIGHT

[@jeromejinkleheimer]

I believe you can break the coconuts on random level rock geometry while holding both halves so that you don’t lose as much milk. not sure how helpful that is but it’s gotta be worth something

[@HonorableAssassins]

as long as its a rock. Cant break it with anything not made of stone, but world geometry stone works. Metal banding on the ship or something does not.

[@someanimatordude2925]

I like your videos because of your grounded sincerity. You're authentic yet you hold a piece of yourself sacred. Preventing the toxic knickknacks of parasocial insanity. That's a fine line you seem to walk with ease, and I respect and admire that. Makes your videos a comfort in these times.

[@Eddiekc4qo]

I've really been enjoying the series so far! Rewatching makes it feel like Habie is still with us 😔

Enjoying this style of video Habie... Honestly great for doing chores and working and probably even pre sleeping? Your voice has a certain vibe to it that works really well and without the mirror brains segment it's really peaceful

[@inviktus1983]

It is weird, but as an avid hiker whistling in the woods is frowned upon lmao

[@rannnoch]

What about aztec death whistling in the woods

[@Levi_Steele713]

you can start fires with the sparks from the flintlock, and when you get to the shipwreck it gives you a holster for the gun and ammo and gunpowder that stays everytime you start a new game.

[@HonorableAssassins]

man just spoiled the literal only thing to currently do in the game.

Unironically got extremely excited when I saw this upload. The Brainrot is real.

[@inviktus1983]

"Kinda" is a contraction of "Kind of" so what you said there is "I like these kind of of videos on this channel." About a year ago I hit my head and woke up in hospital with the unexplainable urge to correct peoples English online.

[@cryptotost6161]

Maybe you could start a fire using the gun and powder? Like without a bullet, just the sparky thing...

[@henrywarmoth1792]

Are you supposed to be able to take the torches and set them up like on a rock or stabbed into the sand or something? I was noticing the shape of the bottom that looked like a tiny stand and was wondering if you are intended to make a little "light perimeter" around your campfire with them to keep monsters further away.

[@thebluetoothspeaker]

if you carry a unstripped coconut and a rock you can have an emergency firestarter kit as well as emergency food and water

[@Celticjamz]

here are some tips i saw: you can ignite a fire with a FLINT lock You can poke a hole in a coconut with a knife smash a coconut into another coconut to crack both try peeling based off force and not distance, just to be sure

[@Gullygullgull]

Made my afternoon I was incredibly bored after practice

[@FerroHerz]

The gun makes sparks even without a bullet so you don't need rocks to make fire

[@daxitron]

Well I'll be damned. A part 2?! Hold on lemme check outside, I think I just saw a pig fly by.
