At long last, my not so gracious return. Mind the random cuts, I had to get rid of the coughs and sniffles which I figure you guys would appreciate. :) Thanks for sticking around through my small leave!

4:50 I hope it's not too late for me to say this, but this is where Rain World's uniqueness starts showing up I think. It's not a game where that would be a problem. I personally LOVE when someone gets stuck somewhere for multiple episodes, and I just love watching every step of their journey, every moment of learning. Someone that talks and behaves like you but doing a 100 episode series where each episode is 1 hour would be heaven for me. All I really need is that people vibe with the game, it can't really be boring because the game is so atmospheric, so instead of boring it becomes relaxing, comforting. It does add to the community, because watching blind experiences is always a treat. The faster people burn through the game, the less time I have to appreciate that lets play. Don't be afraid to take forever.

I would say that once you stop thinking of information as someone told you it and instead start to think about it as its just something you know, you can probably start to tell people about it without mentioning that someone told you. Hope you get well soon!

That is very paradoxical in a way, and i love it lol. Thank you for the wishes 🫡

Love the video, personally I wouldn't mind a like 100+ part series on this. I love this game and it's usually quiet so it's also good for speaking over like in this video.

The red plant is something called “batnip” It’s like catnip, but it attracts batflies. It works the best if you stand still (in a room with batflies)

6:04 actually didn’t know that just having food in a shelter will have you automatically eat it. (I thought you started a starvation cycle, which happens if you hold ‘down’ in a shelter without having enough food. (It increases your karma, but won’t save your progress and will make the next ‘day’ much harder)

If you're going to practice more, you could try getting used to some useful tech (sry for the giant amount of text (prepare yourself)): 1. While running in a direction (full speed) press down and then jump (almost at the same time) to slide (still holding forwards). If you throw a stick during this slide, you can throw it into a lizard's mouth (if opened) for 50% extra damage. Throwing something behind you as soon as you start sliding (and the immediately holding forwards again) will greatly extend the slide, but it's really hard to time (I still only get it 50% of the time) 2. When you turn around while running, (you'll see some particles coming from your feet (it also works before these are visible)) you can press jump to do a flip. During this flip you can throw objects up and down (hold direction). This can be used to embed a stick into the ground, and even pin creatures to the ground (you can pin creatures to the wall they're climbing on as well), and it can be used to jump over a lizard that's chasing you (but this gets hard for most lizards other then the green ones) 3. If you hold down+direction (left or right) after landing from a flip, or after falling from any height (higher then about 2 slugcats (jump height included)), you'll start to roll. Pressing jump anytime during this roll will result in a big jump, just as far as the charged jump, but higher (jumping towards the end of the roll will give even more height (higher then the flip)) That's all for now. Good luck with all this (don't worry to much if you keep failing). Try to practice and experiment with these (I you feel up to it) as the game won't teach you how to do all this. Really enjoy these videos thus far, and I hope this helps you stay alive. (and yet again sorry for this giant amount of text, I wanted to make sure to prevent any easily made mistakes)

@@Kaylen_JakobsenI think that we should let him adjust to the main controls for now (lets not stress him out with trying to learn too much new stuff) and then later we can really lay it on him once he gets farther 😂

@Kaylen_Jakobsen 26 күн бұрын

Oh, and the dots around your karma icon (when opening the map) is how much time is left before the rain starts. And (in case you didn't know yet) you can switch an item between hands by double clicking the grab button (idk how else to say this 😅) Pressing jump while holding a direction in those tight tunnels can do all sorts in different positions. And if you need a tiny tip on which direction to go (don't expand if you don't want to know (yet)) I'd recommend mostly going up (and bit left) The destination: You'll know when you get there.

On the "ownership of information" thing that you introduced, I do think that the distance from the primary source definitely matters. For a video game, the primary source is the devs, so when you consider it distanced enough to not cite who you learned it from can be fairly early after it just becomes your common knowledge and not "that thing that I was told the other day" (like after you've been making pole platforms for a while and it's second nature). Most people I've seen actually figure that out by accident, because they throw the pole into the wall either when trying to hit something or because they're still new to the controls. In real life, it actually is an interesting discussion because this is the fundamental difference between things such as indigenous science and western science. With western science, studies are peer reviewed and the standard for plagiarism is so strict that you can be hit for it to a career/education-ending degree purely by accident. Indigenous sciences on the other hand work off of a lot of traditional knowledge that are better traced back to regions and cultures than they are to individual discoverers, for example: Indigenous people across the America's have been using prescribed burns for habitat management for millennia, and western scientists are just now fully embracing it as how revolutionary it actually is (it is literally integral to conservation in many habitats, preventing unnatural succession caused by human fire suppression, and for making wildfires less dangerous to us by reducing the amount of accumulated degree). The people in those indigenous cultures who were the 120th generation to be doing it likely wouldn't have been actively describing who they learned it from, since that's public knowledge that is integrated into the way of life of their people. But did people from the second generation to receive the knowledge cite their grandparents? And for us (assuming we're looking in from an outside perspective), do we cite indigenous people as the case study for prescribed burns? It's often done when defending it's legitimacy, since by invoking Native Americans you can show thousands upon thousands of years of precedent of it working, but it's also becoming more commonplace in Western science and by governments. You can become fire certified to do prescribed burns through my university, in fact. Who are they citing in that course if anybody at all? I probably could have put this better, but it was an interesting topic that you brought up.

No worries on the length, I love this answer and it was very interesting to read. They idea of backing up your knowledge changes the game as well, obviously showing somebody how to throw a football may not require a source in and of itself, but convincing someone to hand you a fire-starter may take a bit more citation… things really never are black and white, its wonderful 🤌

Tipps if you throw your speer against a red big plant it will open like popcorn and it's infinite food. your ignored it many times and the Overseer did wanted to tell you but you didn't listen to his moves. The small red flower or plant that you can store in your stomach it will attract bat fly that you can eat wen you hold it. it is a easy food solution if you are in a room Wehre bat flys are.

4:35 Honestly, the appeal of first playthroughs for me is actually seeing people play it through and figure it out. I would be fine if you did a longform playthrough where you went slow. Hell, I watched a KZbinr who struggled more than me at every stage but still got through it in like 50 cycles when it took me hundreds just due to the way I move. My only concern is that you not making much progress makes you really vulnerable to spoilers, the community gets antsy like that and it honestly annoys even a lot of veteran players. You're doing fine though.

@kekboi4063 25 күн бұрын

This definitely reflects what i was thinking for the most part, its hard to know who will be watching and how to best appeal to them but that problem is so above me its almost absurd to say lol. I have a bunch of fans watching and commenting, but then again it makes me wonder how many other types of people i may lose with that type of play through, you know? Either way, the fans have been more fun so far 😁

@Laymann311 26 күн бұрын

Okay, so you want to know how the game is beat? I will not tell you straight up the plot or anything (and I hope nobody spoils that) because it is absolutely wonderful. But the game is beaten by finding your way to one location and then going to a different location in a different part of the map. There is also a notable location to go to before the first main location, which I would advise visiting. The best way I would say to get to the end of the game is just to explore, there are many ways to the end, and as long as you are finding new things you are getting closer. However, if you don’t want to just explore aimlessly till the end, I would advise just exploring as you would like, but then taking general directions from us and your community, it’s much more natural and pleasant that way. I will be here if you need any help, and feel free to ask questions. Now, as for content and what you think we would be interested in, we love episodes like this. You are right when you say that we can be an intense community (cuz we have played all of this game, I have 160 hours so far) but we love to watch someone new join us in our love for the game, there is very little pressure man. Just take it at your own pace. Then for the question of when to switch from student to teacher. Anyone can teach anyone they know, you don’t have to earn the right to teach. Just for our perspective though, we are interested in how you learn in-game things, how they come to you, and how they happen. Sorry for the long comment, keep up the awesome stuff! I know I’ll be sticking around, I like this stuff. P.S. Hollow Knight is a game that I played after Rain World, and I will say that it is also an incredible game, full of atmosphere and challenges, I’m sure we would all love to see you take it on if you haven’t already 😁

Welcome back, hope you get better soon and you got some nice progress going on! I don't have anything to say regarding the philosophical debate about the ownership of information; but, I do have a couple questions. I guess you didn't see my reply comment from the last video? I was asking if you had Remix enabled, you were hesitant to enable it since you didn't know if it was purely beneficial or caused you to miss out on certainly content. I put in a reply comment where the tl;dr is that the remix mod is purely beneficial, nothing to worry about! Last question: What do you think about the upcoming Watcher DLC?

@Laymann311 26 күн бұрын

I’m sure that he knows nothing about the watcher dlc, or even if he knows about downpour. Also, I think he has enabled remix, but if not it’s really not a big deal for the playthrough right now

@kekboi4063 26 күн бұрын

Straight up did miss your reply 😪 my apologies friend. The creator interface gets a little weird with replies as it likes to sort comments by “have you already replied” so ongoing conversations can be hard to follow up on, if that makes sense. I do need to check into the remix setting. And in terms of dlc… phew im just not there yet i dont think haha. I guess i would be curious how much is added in any given dlc? Does the game get oodles of content or are they generally smaller additions? Either way is fine but since i havent thought on it too much id just be curious how it all is. 🤔

Also thank you for the get well wishes! If youre curious how my illness brain is processing things, i honestly read “hope you get better soon” as like, a ‘git good’ type thing at first. Which i thought was funny once finally realized haha

@M.C.11Mc7 25 күн бұрын

@@kekboi4063 (had to reupload comment due to me not realizing several key structural errors). Please excuse me if it sounded like I was demanding you to play any of the DLCs immediately when that wasn't my intention in the slightest; I was just wondering if you had any thoughts or theories about the DLCs. As for how much content is added for each DLC... Oh boy, you're in not for a treat but a full course meal! Downpour adds in at least five new campaigns, 10 new regions, safari mode, challenge mode, expeditions, new creatures, new collectibles, and so much more! If you were to look at how much storage space the base game needs vs Downpour, the base game needs 4 gb of space while Downpour needs 6 gb. If you were to compare the amount of campaigns in each, base game would only have 3 (Monk is just Survivor on easy mode so you could technically simplify it even further into just 2 base game campaigns) while Downpour once again has at least 5 (depending on how much you love Rain World by the end, remind me to discuss why I said "at least 5"). Downpour is literally a sequel to Rain World in all but name and how it's acquired; I think the reason it's a DLC instead of a seperate sequel has something to do with spoilers in the lore so I can't talk much else about it. So if we're going to guess how big The Watcher DLC will be with Downpour as our reference, then I'll guess that the Watcher will still be bigger than the base game but slightly smaller than Downpour. The Watcher DLC looks like it's going to be just one campaign, but the teaser images on the steam page shows that the Watcher slugcat will be traversing both a desert and a tundra region. Such huge discrepancies in biome temperature indicates huge walking distances, so if you thought the base game's map was huge than Watcher might prove you wrong! Heck, the Watcher might cover more ground than Downpour! Tl;Dr for this massive comment: The DLCs are good shit that you should mentally prepare yourself for once Survivor is done. Don't force yourself to buy Downpour immediately in case you either don't like the game as much as you wish or to avoid major/minor map changes to the existing base game regions to make it conform to Downpour's alternative timeline.

No worries man, i didn’t take it in any sort of bad way initially! I love games that make dlc worth buying, especially in this day and age. If/when i make my way through this game i will have to check out what comes after because youve definitely sold me on it!
