Can You Beat ONCE HUMAN With Only Explosives?

[@TheBacklogs]

Remember, you can play Once Human on Steam for free! Let em know I sent ya : store.steampowered.com/app/2139460?ENAUGKOL&YT&Backlogs Also, a huge thank you to my community for helping me with this run. Truly, the Firebomb Academy proved their mettle this week. I couldnt' have done the run without you, and the fact that you all bulit the Firebomb Academy in-game *while* helping me gather resources is absolutely insane. A+ work, everyone gets a PASS for the rest of the semester. Class dismissed

@@dragonlord4898 Remember, this is a completely false narrative and not based in reality :P They collect no more information than any other company does when you buy something from them, and if you purchase through Steam then they don't even get that. The ID card stuff only applies to countries like China where it is mandated by law.

[@dragonhearthx8369]

So to get past the first bottleneck, you just need to randomly find explosives. Then use said explosives on the deer to get the hide

[@geoffreybell4545]

As he said, the guild was more a representation of minimizing time rather than negating the run. It is ABSOLUTELY possible without the guild, but would've taken much longer.

[@JGStone]

​@geoffreybell4545 Yeah technically chest respawn all 4 h, so u could just skip all of the hunting and crafting and get the bombs from weapon crates, but in my 200h of playing I got around 500 bombs so that would just take ages.

People in NetEase making challenges/debugging with Lemon is genius and good as advertising at the same time 😂

[@furiouscorgi6614]

Can verify, I picked up the game after this video, just finished my first PvP server as #1 Warband

[@Le-Jibaku]

If they add a lemon-inspired/based grenade, you can grab a sledgehammer and start searching the walls for where they're hiding.

[@glenmcgillivray4707]

We clearly need lemon trees to make Lemon Batteries and thus Lemon Tazers to enable hunting mobs without normal weapons. add explosive bolts for your crossbow, and the Grenade launcher and we have a whole tech tree to explore one day. A shame lemona aren't in game.

[@prophet5329]

Got my lemon plush yesterday, very satisfied with the quality. Keep on making amazing content!

I mean...not gonna lie, but "Can You Beat Solitaire With Only Explosives?" would be an amazing video.

[@front1ersax574]

Welcome back to the Backlogs, where we forget to use/upgrade stuff, that is essential to and in theme with our build. Just rewatched your "Can You Beat FAR CRY 3 With Only Fire?"-video and got furious, when you unlocked the Fireproof Syringe early on, didn't use it and set yourself on fire throughout the whole run. Keep going, Lemon. You don't need easy mode ;)

[@masterskywalker4047]

I subscribed for dark souls/Bloodborne content but so far I'm enjoying everything you upload, keep up the good work and thank you

[@childofmars9001]

he did have help from the community to get started, but he also completely skipped the grenade launcher. so we'll call it even

[@kvahlman]

Video production note: if you want butter smooth panning shots, use a controller. Trying to do it with mouse just isn't as good. To eliminate uneven panning with a mouse you'd need to have very very low sensitivity and then a 180° turn will require a tennis court as a mousepad.

[@tiredmrp]

Damn you Lemon! Your last video got me hooked onto this game. I've been firebombing with reckless abandon ever since.

I admit Lemon, I really hate survival games like this game, ARK, etc., but watching you do challenge runs in them feels oddly comforting. Edit: Capitalized L in Lemon

[@squashiejoshie200000]

What you've done is an absolute achievement and nobody can take that away from you. That said, it's not the end. There's still the final boss of the current story. The one almost impossible to hit with throwables. The one who presents a massive challenge to anyone attempting this: The Forsaken Giant. I genuinely believe that no matter how you get there, he may be impossible to solo with explosives early. Even if you trade in the rpg for a grenade launcher with it's far more efficient (weight and material wise) ammo, I think you'd find that a match for your patience. But I'd love to see someone get it done. Best of luck if you try, and best of luck in your next challenge regardless. This was a great ride and I'm here for more.

[@DanteYewToob]

FBU is the only college that isn’t a total ripoff… I highly recommend it! I got my degrees in Applied Explodanomics and Conflagration Engineering and I did my thesis project by combining my majors. I used what I learned in Conflagration Engineering to build some high quality Molotov cocktails, and then my Applied Explodanomics classes came in handy when I.. excuse me for using such technical language… yeeted the burny juice at the fucked up weirdy and then used my “back mounted ranged ignition system” to light that fucker up and watch the holy flame do its work. You see, a typical Molotov cocktail is unpredictable and potentially dangerous to the wielder but I learned at FBA/FBU that there is a safer way… the two step! The saturate and conflagrate! You throw the un-lit fuel on your target first, and then use your flamethrower to ignite them at your leisure. This also works on intelligent enemies as a threat… there’s nothing as terrifying as being soaked in gasoline while a -nutty whacko- educated and trained individual holds a flamethrower pointed in your direction. I’ve cooked more than a few monstrosities and otherworldly beings thanks to the FireBomb Academy and FireBomb University!

@@drakeking6745 fair..... Sounds like we need a Can A Raid Group Beat Once Human With Only Explosives

@@TitoSilvey wouldnt disagree, but tbh the answer is yes. I did the lea institute solo up until encounter 3 (of 5 i think) and the first two encounters are "stand in zone to be able to damage boss" Edit: and for the giant, itd be really tedious but youd just need sheer volume of items in your inventory or a massive amount of rocket ammo cuz its a weakspot based fight

If you haven't already a grenade only run in The Lord's of the Fallen (2023) might be a fun, albeit not too challenging run to do. Grenades in that game use ammo, and you can get pouch's that restore it through exploration, enemy drops, and not too far into the game purchasing. Grenades also scale with stats, and there's about 6 if not more different ones to throw.

Idk if you've done this before and i just missed it or you havent yet, but you should try to beat a monster hunter game with just explosions.

Especially even I dont personally enjoy the video I wouldnt watch it but if it is enabling you to do more of what you like to do I'm all for that, as it allows you to make content I would actually enjoy watching.
