Oxygen Not Included Volcanea - Hydroponic Farming // EP2

[@blackholevortex]

About the discussion of restarting a lot (around the 10-minute mark), I am definitely one of those people who restart too much. But how do I gauge what is a big mistake and what isn't? For example, I recently messed up my water purification plant and ended up with a tiny bit of food poisoning in my water supply. It didn't seem to lead to anything bad short-term though, but I never know. Do I simply need to keep playing and see what matters and what doesn't? (I suppose I could just look it up for every mistake I make, but that would get tedious quickly and feel a bit "cheaty") By the way, I really apprecate these playthroughs, they're a blast to watch and help a lot to get my priorities right in the game as well! I wasn't able to catch this stream due to traveling, but I hope to be able to tune in to the next one!

why does it matter if your water has food poisoning germs? Water used for oxygen isnt gonna make dupes sick with food poisoning germs. Even if you use it for food like bristle blossoms it wont really matter once the food is cooked and stored in something. If you get worried about food making dupes sick store the food in chlorine gas. There are very few mistakes you can make that are damning in Oxygen Not Incuded

I used to restart a lot too, but ultimately found that it just made me learn a game much slower so I consciously override my desire to restart for a 'perfect' run and roll with the mistakes treating the mistakes like flavor =]

As someone who also suffers from Restartitis I feel for you🤒

Not sure if it's just on my end, but this episode is coming up first on the playlist, not 2nd.

[@Rhadamant]

I'll look at that

[@kirin7945]

finally got through my backlog of your videos and super hyped for this series, especially as i am learning oxygen not included right now and got the dlc! Your videos are always very entertaining

[@Rhadamant]

Ahh this is without the DLC, but enjoy!

[@kirin7945]

@@Rhadamant is there any reason for you not playing with the dlc?

[@Rhadamant]

@@kirin7945 I don't like it

Early farming is mealworm and pickle it. Just make sure to pick the best spot that's gonna be ideal temp. Do bristle berry if u have tons of water

[@Rhadamant]

I left it up to polling and the live viewers decided with berries not mealwood

[@toddblankenship7164]

@@Rhadamant berries are good they give lots of Cals, just gotta do the math for the dupes you have so u dont waste water cause they guzzle

[@ShannaeDarkehart]

On this difficulty setting it's fine, really. On Ravenous there'd probably be starvation alerts popping by now, though. XD

I want to pet the dogs, while watch you play.

[@Rhadamant]

I'll do it for ya!

This game is so complex, I'm actually afraid playing it myself, even though, as a bio-chemist, I have a science background. ONI is one of the few games I just watch LPs of, without playing it myself.

[@Rhadamant]

I get that, its a big commitment to learn to play
