Hi willjum

[@freezymays]

I feel like one of the reason Willjum is growing so fast is because his playstyle is much more relatable for the average player. It's pretty refreshing watching a Willjum style video instead of pvp chads

[@wackojacko8391]

He is low key is a pvp chad too though.

[@jackkichurchak3453]

I think pvp videos are boring and repetitive. If I wanted to only see people fight I’d watch cod or some other game. Wills videos are so much better you get to see everything

[@papasalvo]

10:15 please note if you are doing the left and right click thing that there is a little more to it. 1. You need to either click them both at the same time or hold down left click and then right click 2. It will upgrade dependent on whats in your inventory and what is the next upgrade tier. So if you want to upgrade from twig to stone you will need to drop any wood in your inventory because wood is the next upgrade tier from twig. 3. This isnt relevant to the upgrade thing but when using the nailgun theres a weird animation issue where you think you have it reloaded but you dont so when using one make sure to double check the ammo amount

I remember learning how to get a base down from a KCMO beginner tutorial back in the day. Pre-components. Roofless base. Don't use keylock. Build yourself in and out until you get a code lock. I'd farm up all the material to build a 2x1, stashing in a stash as I went to not lose it all. Throw the whole thing down in like 30 sec after having all the necessary materials for a 2x1, including a furnace. Game is so different now.
