I think this is a great step in the right direction. There are a few things that i think this update needs. 1: A better way to find/get to the attrium 2: A buff to the beefalo bell because it is WAY too expensive for what it does. A long cooldown i think is the best option. 3: The greater depthworm loot. I think it should have a special drop that'll make you wanna seek it out.

[@minegagadoli]

How can you seek it out if its a wave enemy?

[@tylerking9507]

@@minegagadoli I could've worded that better. But I just mean more insensitive to kill it instead of running away.

[@snapgoesbruh7722]

At least for your number 1: Klei did say they would take a look at finding the atrium when on stream. So that may be updated in future hotfixes!

[@Hexagrontley]

they're likely gonna make it a shadow resurrection boss type thing, like lunar clops. so that'll check one of those off

[@CalvinLol777]

I dunno about anyone else, but I LOVE the sawhorse, is I’m really happy to see Klei giving it more attention!

[@ronanclark2129]

They might have just made an update that's significant for shadow, lunar, caves, overworld, early game, and late game.

[@TheBeard777]

Significant doesn't mean well implemented however... You really think the gear is worth 3 Fuelweaver fights WHILE Rifts are active?

[@JackJester21]

At this point it feels like the devs are releasing a sequel in bits and pieces. Me and the few friends I play this with have decided to kinda take a break till there's more of a big picture

[@TheBeard777]

I think that's a fair call! Especially when Klei themselves have been telling us for over a year to "wait for the next update to see..." and yet here we are... waiting... For something that isn't just *stuff* to keep the playerbase's attention span.

[@khromyakvsevolod3664]

I said it before, I'll say it again. This feels like a terraria update, especially with the mimics spawning mechanic.

[@vamprascare621]

@@TheBeard777, you're very welcome.

[@Petardo_Dilos]

From the start of the post-game content updates me and my friends agreed that there needs to be a way to get to the Nightmare Fuelweaver and Celestial champion faster. It takes us around 2-3 ingame years to get to them and at this point we are usually burned out with the game. Because this isn't being addresed in the new updates I kinda worry that this is only "us" thing and that many people aren't actually bothered by it.

[@TheBeard777]

While I can say that taking 2-3 years ingame is quite a long time compared to others I can also say it's really not a "you" thing. Trust me, a *vast* majority of players have barely touched the full "Return of Them" Arc let alone all of this stuff. The people who just keep asking Klei for *more-more-more* are who we all need to worry about because it's been leading us in, well, no direction whatsoever honestly. This past year has been nothing but stuff, plenty of it beyond optional at that! The game needs to "end" for Pete's sake. Give us a concrete, lore and gameplay woven reason to do anything of this crap!

[@rebootgaming7306]

I like how you cover things and how sincere you are about everything. Keep up the good work, uncle man!

[@TheBeard777]

I'll always be honest, even when everyone's telling me that they can share opinions while I cannot! :D

[@Lyn-uh2mb]

another lovely video of the beard explaining to us things again..!! always very helpful and i am glad to see them working on the ruins again but i personally would love to see just 1 tiny change in the overworld which is the moonstorms because not having them activated is a bad decision for all players but having them activated makes you forget what the night is unless you enter the caves and that's what it feels right now to me.. just running around with my group ignoring everything light related.. i can't even convince my group to fight toadstool because they keep saying what do you need that for??? we have infinite light...!! and yes i know we can remove the moonstorms by defeating the celestial champion again but good luck trying to convince your group to make that change while it would have all kinds of negative impact in your world.. i feel soo triggered just walking around all the time and always carry a helmet for entering the moonstorms.. and a crown that makes me immune to the ghosts that put me to sleep.. not to mention crystal rain causing your death unless you have armor on you.. if they somehow decided to take a different approach with moonstorms i would been much happier in don't starve together in general... but i currently don't feel days passing because i don't see any night time.. i only see light

[@yzrvergil]

Great content, Short and simple.

[@ciceroissad4821]

Why does Don't starve looks less Don't starve with each update?

[@TheBeard777]

Because the game should've "ended" in 2023.

[@chonflis3834]

It seems the atruims are their version of those energy capsule things from hosts of horrors. Though the lack of shadow-infused bosses is kind of a let down

[@practicalduck]

This whole update just feels like a small content mod. Anyone else feel the same?

[@TheBeard777]

Welcome to Klei since last year, if not a little before... 👀😶

[@someone24688]

I hope the atrium will drop from other shadow bosses in the future

[@TheBeard777]

That would be one hell of a change. I don't think Klei just *throwing things at the wall to see what sticks* should lead to such things. That's not refining content, that's just *doing stuff*.

[@davidanderegg1232]

Lookup farming stats for them. You can get an infinite amount of hearts for just a stack of gunpowder

[@pokefan0021]

I really hope that the Lurking Horror gets sent back to post rift, I couldn't imagine trying to ruins rush and have to deal with that thing along with fifteen terrorbeaks.

[@TheBeard777]

In running around to get footage for this video I had 3 crawling horrors, 2 terrorbeaks, and 2 of these things in one area and I just teleported away... 😅😅😅

[@trevorjanssen7465]

Honestly i really do like that they are leaning into making the caves more inhospitable. It makes it feel a lot more like an activity area rather than a building area.

[@kinnykin1305]

Don't you get the feeling the momment pearl hands you her pearl, you went through all that sweat and tears of trouble just for a shiny ball to fight a lunar boss for a skilltree

[@TheBeard777]

I never minded the progression of the game until Klei added Rifts. And even then I was a little intrigued as they did say that there would be 3 MAJOR Updates to address both sides and the War between them but here we are after 5+ and... Why are we doing all this?!?!

[@kinnykin1305]

@TheBeard777 you're so right, like the negative things we got compared to what positive they have added is pretty unbalanced, the underlying problem is that nobody wants to make the game harder for themselves as they progress once you reach the end of a game it should be easier in fact the way Klei is looking at the game as if they are about to add Asian mode next update 😂

[@Nuhhuhhuh]

So the conflict of blinding light and grim darkness is still on a stalemate I suppose

[@TheBeard777]

Remember when Klei said that we'd have to wait but one more Update to see how the Lunar VS Shadow conflict would come to a head? Pepperidge Farm remembers.

[@Nuhhuhhuh]

​@@TheBeard777If only current updates were the last touches for the finished product...

[@renem.9061]

I really hoped the ornery chests would be a way to avoid refighting the shadowtrio. Now we have to fight the shadow trio repeatedly AND have to find and put them in the ornery chests, which will only be active AFTER i beat fuelweaver and activated the rifts… Now i can craft stronger weapons and beefaloequipment AFTER i beat the arguably hardest boss in Dst without said gear 🤷🏻‍♂️ And to unleash the full potential of the axe i have to kill 9 MORE bosses !?! This kinda feels like the WOW southpark-episode.

[@TheBeard777]

I've been telling people for years now that the introduction of Skilltrees was going to place Klei on an endless loop of having to "one-up" themselves with every Update, be it a character one or not, and this is about as close to the peak of that as we've gotten with regards to Content Updates specifically. I don't care how "good" this new stuff is. It doesn't warrant all this, not at that point in the game.

[@verestoyjanos5013]

Yeah my only problem really is the mimics and atrium. This is too much wiki reading IMO. To get the special materials a drop you can only get during a new moon shouldn't be the thing. ImO they shouldve updated a new biome like the cave swamp where you can find this stuff.

[@TheBeard777]

I literally wrote in my Discord that if people don't watch this guide they're going to have no frigging idea what is happening. And I don't think that's an exaggeration at all!

[@requ1emYBA]

Guess im always gonna have post rifts on starting a new game to get the content 😅

[@TheBeard777]

After this Hotfix? I might join ya there. Otherwise we'll be fighting Fuelweaver (and having to time said fight) far too many times.

[@Andrew-ch3xj]

@@TheBeard777and fuelweaver is still a bad boss desing

[@notgabriel8624]

They made the shadow atrium crafting requirement even more complicated yaaaay… I was really hoping the possessed heart was gonna be some glitch less way to dupe hearts as having to wait for every new moon for one of these crafts is a pretty agonizing wait. Atleast the spark arc you can have like 4 of by the time you do wagstaff’s quest and one cycle of repeat kills.. and you know it’s fun and engaging bosses as opposed to the shadow pieces we’ve been killing for years now.. Why isn’t there a caves boss being worked on for this? What ever happened to that long list of mutations Wagstaff gave us?

Fossils are renewable now? Cool. I still think that fossils should drop from deconstructing the fuelweaver armor though.

Not the best renewability when it's behind a late game enemy with a random loot pool per kill.

[@Sempapi]

Thank you for your time and dedication to inform us about every piece of new content! Sir I have 2 questions, when are they going to release this update? Why they didn't include a skill tree with this one? Thought they wer adding a few per update

[@TheBeard777]

Given that we already know that Greater Depth Worm changes are coming I imagine we will get an early Hotfix #3 next week (maybe Tuesday) and then the Update will release in full not too shortly after that. Then again... they usually tell us Ambassadors a week before an official release so maybe it won't be next week but the week after? And as for the Skilltrees, those are being dedicated to their own Update Cycles this year. So they will release a couple Trees, do a Content Update release afterwards, and then drop another Skilltree or two after that.

[@Sempapi]

​​@@TheBeard777 Thank you so much for your answer! Got it, so its probably going to be released by the end of September. I'm kinda disappointed with the skilltrees being separate updates but I guess is better with more time, I really am desperate for Wortox's skilltree tho :( love the character and the soul mechanics but he is so bad. Btw as far as my understanding goes you have a newborn, so congrats!🎉 Hope everything went perfect and also I hope you are able to disconnect from the internet some time to enjoy your time with your family
