guiding a noob through a hostile ecosystem [Rain World]

[@dododonut]

20/2/24: a lot of people have been asking about the splitscreen, figured I should clarify: the splitscreen mod by Henpemaz (it’s one of the most popular mods on the workshop, it shouldn’t be hard to find) has a setting in its remix menu that allows you to split the game into two windows entirely. hi you may have noticed this recording is 8 months old the original idea was to record (almost) all the campaigns, then make one super long video out of it but it's taking a while to get through the DLC (i'm usually busy with university, so good recording times are sparse) _(if you subscribe to holo, you might just catch one of those recordings live. just sayin'.)_ so i decided to split it in two (a relatively recent decision, which is how the recordings got so old) this video, to serve as a sort of "rain world introduction", and another video that's all the other campaigns just in case i want to make more rain world content in the meantime also, don't expect long videos like this very often, i'm too busy to do that constantly just the occasional big project. for fun, y'know?

[@Astrodino11]

K good luck with university

Alright thanks for letting us know. Good vid btw

My favorite part of this whole thing was what are those plant things? Those are what we like to call beehives oh no. NOT THE BE-

[@ozenvr]

Hey, did you use Jolly coop in the video ? If yes, could you like explain briefly what it does if you have time ? would rlly appreciate it

[@RoyalTheking-fp1lh]

@@ozenvr basically Jolly Co-op is a DLC exclusive tool that allows you to play with up to 4 players at a time, and it lets you use unlocked (im pretty sure only campaigns you have beaten) slugcats in the game

[@Goteryup]

The canonical reason for people reviving is because its almost impossible to die which is what the aincents, and there iterators, were searching for

[@mxyzptplk]

co-op mode isn't canon so there's no explanation for that specific kind of reviving

[@Austrianpainter1930]

I mean it’s a game plus it could be in the situation where two slights meet so it’s not that one slight revives the other it’s that they revive by the cycles

[@rlkintage_]

​@@mxyzptplkwe could say that if the dead creature manages to get to a shelter, some how, they will revive, since the cycle has passed, or re-started, according to the lore

[@adamixziober]

if coop was canon it would be hard mode, because it is possible for someone to die, and from their perspective they come back but if you save theyre gone

[@alaas1041]

So actually if someone dies in your cycle and you survive, your cycle continues with them being dead, and they get their own cycle without you alive. So you just separate ways. It's kinda complicated but that's basically the reason the survivor and monk want to ascend (their family died and they survived in the same cycle)

[@DustyGamma]

Lore friendly that Artificer doesn't accend, and also looses her child.

Just wanna let you know that I first watched this when it popped up on my recommended after looking for Rain World related videos, back when it had maybe a 4th of the views it has now, and I've been rewatching it often since as either entertainment when I eat or as background noise when trying to fall asleep, and I'm really grateful it exists, haha. It's also been great to see the views gradually go up. Definitely deserved.

36:20 , you can just go to where the pipe is to access to Moon by back flipping into the pole that is rigth infront of it. (As rivulet, it is a lot easier)

In theory you could have taken the pup, in my first playthrough I took a grapple worm with me, I thought the guardians were supposed to smack you around like that. It took me a while to get past, the grapple worm did die or I dropped him, so I’m not sure if other creatures can ascend, but you could’ve taken him further if u wanted to
