Thank you, I am following your QOL tips in previous comments and really enjoying watching the terraformation and story unfold!

I hope you have a nice Thanksgiving! You're doing great and I love watching you, so thank you! Just a few more guidelines. You've mentioned "lore" in your episode titles and have already read one of the stone tablets that were left behind. Those are from the Wardens and are a big part of the lore of the game. There were two that you missed in the cave behind the stone wall in the Mushroom cave. I suggest you go back there and look around carefully. Also, I suggest you take the Warden Keys as you find them. They are there for you to do things with, necessary to accomplish some things in fact. I'm not sure if your gaming speed, the speed at which you dart and fly around, is normal for you or part of your editing. I've noticed that some things you appear to not see, perhaps due to your running or flying speed. The Warden messages in the Mushroom cave are one. The giant waterfall I spotted in the background around minute 41 in the above video is another. Speaking of waterfalls and lakes, yes, some things will be submerged due to the rising water. There are six things/locations that I can remember at the moment. If diving underwater, in the darkness, in an enclosed area, with just a flashlight keeping you company doesn't bother you then you don't need to stress and feel you have to find them immediately. If, however, you do need some guidance, I can direct you to their general locations without giving away their precise coordinates. Part of the early game is seeing the sights and stumbling across things. Speaking of things on the map, the usable areas do not shrink. You're just getting used to where things are and don't feel as lost as you did when you started. In the underground bases and in some of the wrecks, are monitor screens with a drawing of an envelope on them. That indicates a message you can read. Click on all of those you see. Multiple screens may have multiple messages, not just duplicates like all those tacked up on the wall of that base. You don't have to read them immediately if you feel rushed due to oxygen/food/air issues. Clicking on them puts the messages into your message files you can read at your leisure back at a base that has a message screen you've built. Inventory management seems to be part of nearly every game nowadays. You will begin to collect a lot more resources as you play. What most players of Planet Crafter do, at least the ones I've watched, is build many lockers, sometimes in a warehouse area they set aside just for that. For example, I have several lockers for each mineral, for foods, plant seeds, air and water, circuit boards, just whatever I find. That way I can easily locate what I'm needing to craft with faster than trying to remember where I put something. If you have any questions, please ask, either in the videos or to me directly, and I will be happy to help. I look forward to the next episode!

@@realleather100 Thank you so much! I hope you also had a wonderful Thanksgiving! I already recorded this Sunday’s episode (in case you wonder why I don’t use any of your tips on it!) so I will put to use all your amazing tips in the next episode that I also plan to record soon! Yes, I do want to find all the lore! Thank you for letting me know, I will go back and look for what I missed! I am working on inventory management haha, a never ending battle! I hope you have a fun Black Friday and weekend! Thank you again!

I want to move my base, but it's so big it will take forever to move everything. I like where it is, but it's always the same place out of convenience (having started 3 times, but progressively getting further in). Also, I'd like to decorate more, but have been worried about wasting materials - so it's just very functional. (Even though I have built a designated 'living' area for no usable reason)

@@Ethrianor If I was just playing this I would probably spend all my time building fun bases and never get far in progression, I built homes in settlements all over Fallout 4 and finally years later went back actually beat the game haha! But since I am making these videos I am trying to balance building with progression!

[@Ethrianor]

@@Kmomkin Oh. I know that feeling. Going from the limited possibilities of F3, NV, Oblivion & Skyrim F4 was complicated. Not hard to play, but hard to focus! So many things to do and also so much time to do them in. Probably have a couple thousand hours in each of them to my (limited) shame 😁

@ Haha! I put in way too many hours raiding in the original WotLK back in the day! No shame in enjoying something!!!
