first playthrough (with unmarked soilers!!)

[red blade]

but the karma goes down

and probably a lot of significant things

[tired escarp]

Are you aware of anything ahppening besides a karma decrase?

[red blade]

nope

but i dont trust this game

there probably will be a guy who judges how many times you died and will hate you

[tired escarp]

Well then dont worry about it
Why worry about something that doesnt happen if you cant tell of any other disadvantage :p

[red blade]

now i will worry even more, this game isnt trustable!

/j

if thats the case, then i will explore more

[azure wasp]

hows exploring going

[red blade]

havent played since that message loll

im trying to fix my parental controls app, i cant see how much hours i have played

it was showing earlier

but not now

[azure wasp]

awh rip

it doesnt display normally?

[red blade]

last update was 11h49, its supposed to update every time i enter the app, all it says is "if it doesnt update correctly, connect your switch to the internet"

its connected to the internet though

:/

[red blade]

how do i get to the other side

[vapid girder]

Climb the rightmost orb

You can figure out the rest

[red blade]

OMG

i found a shelter and a scav joined too

i dont have food tho :(

I FOUND A NEW AREA

I HAD KARMA ENOUGH

YAYYY

where can i find food in garbage area?

[azure wasp]

never entered there

[red blade]

i made it out alive

[azure wasp]

good job 🔥

[red blade]

this game is so addicting aa

[red blade]

also thank you!!

[heady trout]

no

[spare stirrup]

Hello

[red blade]

hello there

theres 1k+ messages already

[spare stirrup]

Woah

[red blade]

is anyone on?

i found a big red plant that looked like something i could climb, i did and died

got grabbed by it

there are like 6 scavengers killing a big flying guy

i went to sleep and 4 scavengers wanted to sleep with me

[honest patrol]

you can ping the @ first playthrough helpers role btw :3

for them to help

just remember not to do it too much

[red blade]

i dont want to disturb them

[honest patrol]

its their job :3

[red blade]

ooh

thank you!

im a monk now!

i found a scavenger place

where theres like 100 of them

i gave them all i had (a rock, a spear and a pearl)

[tired escarp]

Please disturb us we havent had a meal (ping) in days /silly

[red blade]

what are these mushroom things? they have different colors

and they glow

should i eat it

[heady trout]

yes

[queen kernel]

Sure why not!!
Unless there’s something specifically telling you to not eat something, trying to eat everything you see is always a good idea, as maybe it is a new food source!!

[red blade]

i feel like not every glowy thing is cool

[spare stirrup]

Classic blunder

[spare stirrup]

Only one way to find out

[red blade]

yeah i think i liked the game

[red blade]

theres a flying blue bug that i can grab, what is it?

||in the garbage waste area||

he makes me jump higher

what are these red bars? <@&1137895527271379055>

[wanton cradle]

red bars upon sleeping means something about the progress towards those little symbols
hint: ||those goals/objectives lost a little bit of progress, but this isnt inherently a bad thing- just something to note :>||

[red blade]

aww

i think i killed a scavenger in a attempt of saving it

[wanton cradle]

:( aww, rest in peace scav

[red blade]

poor guy

thats why there was only 2 scavs when i woke up, normally there are 4

i died drowned

i found a new area

||drainage system||

but i died

without saving

:(

i died in the same place without saving

im so dumb

oh my god

guys i think i unlocked a path "chieftain", is it good?

[verbal mural]

It's a thing

You'll find out what it means in time.

[red blade]

is it good? what do i get by it?

i accept the spoilers

[verbal mural]

An achievement, for one, and a Passage.

You already have the Survivor Passage. There are others

They are not all alike, though. Pay attention to them, see if you can figure out how what makes each appear.

[red blade]

i dont understand 😭

also is it normal that everytime i want to hibernate a scavenger appears to sleep with me

WHAT

WHAT IS THAT

ITS A GIANT SPIDER

WHAT

IT APPEARED OUT OF THE WATER

THERE ARE TWO

THERE ARE SO MANY

what are they omg

is there a way to breath longer underwater?

i mean

have more oxygen

[verbal mural]

Hint: ||You might not be using what you have efficiently.||

[red blade]

im not using scavengers efficiently?/hj

[verbal mural]

No, as in, oxygen consumption.

You have to learn how to swim efficiently.

[red blade]

also

||is it okay to go to drainage system if i went to garbage wastes first?||

[verbal mural]

If you want to

It's an open world.

[spare stirrup]

Passages are a one-time use fast travel thing (it says this when you hover over the passage icon). You unlock them in various different ways

[red blade]

ooh

thank you

[red blade]

how much time for you to beat your first playthrough?

random question

[vague schooner]

Whar the whar

[red blade]

how many hours/how many cycles and deaths

[vague schooner]

I have been summoned

[red blade]

yes, hello

[verbal mural]

Cycles? I think it was around 100 for me, but it varies a lot.

Deaths, uh, don't bother keeping count

(unless it's the Pit™️)

[red blade]

woww

[tired escarp]

I dont rememebr how long it took me to beat my first playthrough of RW, that was about 6 or so years ago

[red blade]

is 100 cycles basically how much cycle to beat the game?

on the first playthrough

[tired escarp]

It varies wildly

[verbal mural]

There isn't really a standard time-to-beat.

[tired escarp]

Dont judge your own progress on someone else's progress as there are several factors and playstyles that will make it differ greatly from player to player

[red blade]

im just asking really

||im on drainage system (sistem or system?) and i hate this area so much||

[verbal mural]

If you explore really thoroughly it'll take longer

There was one person in here once who got to around cycle 600

[red blade]

600????

[verbal mural]

(system)
We have tips if you're stuck

[red blade]

im not really stuck, i just hate water so much

[verbal mural]

It's quite the learning curve

[verbal mural]

IIRC they explored pretty much the entire map and also spent a ton of time just hanging out in one spot or another because it was fun

[red blade]

that person must love shelter more than anyone

also what does IIRC means?

[heady trout]

if i recall correctly

[red blade]

ooh thanks

[verbal mural]

They're also one of the few people to finish one of our role challenges before beating the game for the first time

[red blade]

thats funny

[verbal mural]

On the other hand, there is one person that - oh Shroomie deleted their account

- did what was pretty close to an Any% speedrun route by accident, glitches included

[tired escarp]

D:

[red blade]

thats way funnier

okay i got to sleep now ill try to get out my current area tomorrow

good night!

[analog dove]

:0?

[azure wasp]

you know who else

[red blade]

guys i lost my motivation to play this game i think ill start a new campaign as a monk

i hate the area im in

[azure wasp]

what area

[red blade]

||drainage system, theres so much water||

[azure wasp]

no need to spoiler that

[red blade]

as a survivor*

[azure wasp]

what if you just go to another area instead

[red blade]

oh okay

[azure wasp]

or just restart the game if you cant get out

[red blade]

i tried but this area is so confusing and theres so much water i hate it

i dont want to restart the game

so i think ill start a new campaign as a survivor

[azure wasp]

thats restarting the game but alright

[red blade]

wdym?

[azure wasp]

restarting the save basically

i didnt mean restart the process

[red blade]

do i lose my monk save?

[azure wasp]

nope

just go somewhere other than drainage-

[red blade]

i tried but i just hate the water so much

i hat eswimming

[tired escarp]

So you dont have to go to DS
Start a new Monk save and just dont go there

[red blade]

how?

[verbal mural]

Each character is a different save slot.

[red blade]

yeah, thats what i mean

i think ill start as a survivor

i wont play much because im so excited for mario party jamboree tomorrow

[red blade]

[red blade]

oh my god im so dumb i came back to outskirts

all my time wasted im back to the first area of the gamr

should i use a passage to garbage wastes? <@&1137895527271379055>

[blissful iron]

its entirely up to you there isnt a right answer here

[red blade]

(im back to the first shelter of the game)

[blissful iron]

the most i can say is if you dont passage youll probably find something new on the way or you can take an entirely new route

[sick halo]

you could take the opportunity to explore new areas, but yeah it's up to you

[red blade]

im using passage then

thank you

[verbal mural]

You explored

Your knowledge of the map matters a lot more than your position on it.

[red blade]

WHY DID A SCAV KILL ME?????

I WAS TOTALLY NOT FULL READY TO GO TO ANOTHER AREA

IM THEIR FRIEND

[sick halo]

some scavs are jerks

[red blade]

new area yay

[red blade]

aw

i love this new area

[verbal mural]

Which one

[red blade]

i dont know the name in english

shores something maybe?

[verbal mural]

ah, yeah

[red blade]

i love it

looks like a beach

[verbal mural]

Shoreline?

[red blade]

probably

rain world is so good

[heady trout]

shoreline

[red blade]

how to get to the shelter?

also the yellow guy is showing a new icon im excited to get there

[tired escarp]

You can climb the geometry, some of it blends in with the walls

[red blade]

awesome thank you

woah new passage

searched it and im pacifist?

thats cool

how to get there?

[red blade]

<@&1137895527271379055> help

[blissful iron]

try checking around the rest of the room

[astral saffron]

There seem to be a lot of winding paths in the area

[subtle gazelle]

Map can help. Look for routes you didnt take.

You can open map by holding space by default, or rebind it in Options

[red blade]

wind? can i grow wings so i can fly? that would be cool too

[red blade]

good idea

[red blade]

okayokay

how didnt i notice this giant thing to climb on

[astral saffron]

"(...) derived from Middle English winding, windinge, wyndynge - “directional change, curve, turn (...)"

Basically the path has a lot of twists and turns

Not winding as in "there is wind here"

Though you are right, growing wings and flying around the map would be cool

[tired escarp]

[wheat thistle]

[red blade]

poor english moment

am i dumb or is it just hard to get there

[astral saffron]

it's alright

Thought it'd be a neat piece of trivia for you to learn

[red blade]

yes! thank you

I FOUND THE WAY

[astral saffron]

Congrats!!

[red blade]

so windery

[red blade]

<@&1137895527271379055> HELP i am in the looks for the moon thing and i am in a room with the moon i ate two of the fly and i searched it up and i shouldnt have done that can i restart my cycle or is it over

i dont want to harm them

[blissful iron]

its fine if you ate the flies

[wheat thistle]

If you haven't slept, then you can redo it, but it's up to you

[red blade]

i havent slept i ate 2 flies but i searched and it said that if i dont harm the flies i get something

also what do i do when meeting them?

[wheat thistle]

Just visit them, and if you don't eat any, the yellow thing will guide you to another place

[red blade]

i think it saved

the region in the map is loaded

nooo

i didnt sleep though

[verbal mural]

It only saves if you hibernate.

[red blade]

oh thats good

[verbal mural]

Don't look it up, it's confusing on purpose

[red blade]

i really need help is there a way to get them out of the arm thing

[verbal mural]

There's nothing you're "supposed" to do.

[verbal mural]

(You don't need to know, so I'd rather not say.)

[red blade]

do i just ignore them?

@verbal mural (sorry for the ping)

[verbal mural]

If you want to. The only way out of that room is the way you came in, sooooooooooooo

[red blade]

so what should i do after meeting them?? im so confused

[verbal mural]

Continue what you were doing before

Explore, survive.

[red blade]

i dont want to go back all the way im considering using a passage

i may have explored everything in the shore something area but the place to go to another area

[verbal mural]

You don't need to go all the way back. Surely there are places nearby you haven't explored.

[red blade]

you are right

[verbal mural]

Also, make sure you do go to the room and then save, otherwise will never know you've been there and will keep trying to guide you there

[red blade]

omg cutscene :o

[red blade]

yess just did

[red blade]

i already hate this new area

[verbal mural]

Welcome

[red blade]

i died in the same place again i hate this game

[verbal mural]

On the other hand, the music there is great

[red blade]

rain world ost is so good

😭

[verbal mural]

The other Pit™️

I'd say we should make another counter but most of the deaths there are probably unreported

[red blade]

is there any light in this game?

[red blade]

wdym?

[red blade]

omg where

[verbal mural]

Several different places
Keep an eye out.

[red blade]

i will use the karma flower for light

/j

i gave a pearl to a scav and they gave me a explosive spear, awesome trade

what is this room?

[red blade]

the hamster is not a good light source he summoned the rain

[devout granite]

Lamp room /silly /nsrs

[red blade]

you are right

[red blade]

im never getting out of this area i died so much i was max karma and now i only have one

is it ok to just eat and hibernate every time

[devout granite]

That bridge is ruthless

[red blade]

i died there like 6 times already

[verbal mural]

That's OK, you just got there

[red blade]

you are right

I ACCIDENTALLY EXPLODED A SCAV BUT LEFT IMMEDIATELY WILL I LOSE REP <@&1137895527271379055>

omg no i love my scav friends

i think i exploded like 2 actually

[verbal mural]

... if you're that worried you can always just not shelter

[red blade]

i just left the moment i heard the explosion sound

did it save

[verbal mural]

If they think it was an accident they think it was an accident

[red blade]

will they remember it please answer seriously

i even had a passage because of the reputation

[verbal mural]

If you died afterwards then definitely not. Otherwise, that's their decision.

[red blade]

omg why did i leave they will remember me

how much pearls so they can forgive me

is 3 enough

2 in my hands and one in my mouth

[tired escarp]

This game doesn't do 'autosaves'

[red blade]

but the game does save the map progress so im worried

[verbal mural]

Don't stress yourself
Accidents happen. You'll always have the opportunity to make it up to them if you need to.

[tired escarp]

That's different and for your own convencience

[red blade]

[verbal mural]

Stick a spear in the wall, test it

The world resets.

[red blade]

be honest based on their expression are they still my friend

[tired escarp]

Do they seem hostile to you?

[red blade]

nope but like what if they are merchants

merchants dont have enemies

[verbal mural]

Don't stress over it

You'll find out if they're hostile later-

[tired escarp]

Youre worrying too much about it

[red blade]

i am because scavs are my best friends

[tired escarp]

Anything you do can be corrected in the future

You dont need to worry so much about it in the present

[verbal mural]

If so maybe they'll understand it was an accident

[red blade]

are they that smart

[verbal mural]

yes

Rain World creatures are always smarter than you think they are.

[red blade]

are you sure

[verbal mural]

yes

[red blade]

they still deserved the 3 pearls

[red blade]

wait but do they actually understand or are you just saying that because funny

[verbal mural]

They probably will

Rain World's AI is good enough and complex enough that you needn't worry about the exact nuances of the system. They will behave like you would expect them to IRL.

[red blade]

the three pearls were enough

[red blade]

or maybe they were okay before the pearls because they werent that hostile when i got into the room

[verbal mural]

Please stop worrying about this, you're going to spoil yourself to stuff trying to figure out how it works and you won't solve the problem in doing so

[red blade]

you are right!! my bad (i actually dont want to be spoiled im just curious )

i think they are fine with me

they are my friends since outskirts maybe

thank you!!

[verbal mural]

They definitely do understand the concept of an accident.

[red blade]

they gave me the explosive and i accidentally killed them with it, poor guys

[verbal mural]

As I said, the AI of most creatures is far more complex than you would expect. Treat the world like it's real, it'll work

[tired escarp]

Reddit is also a terrible place to go for information without getting spoiled
Youre better off just staying here and asking about it

[red blade]

reddit said the flying things with the || moon|| were parasites that hurt them and that people should eat it

"it may hurt first but ||moon|| will thank you"

[tired escarp]

And this is why we don't go to reddit

[red blade]

okay!! even though i do think leaving instantly was a good choice

[red blade]

WHAT ARE THESE THINGS

????????

[devout granite]

chomp chomp chomp 🏃‍♂️🏃‍♂️🏃‍♂️

[red blade]

i think i am traumatized with this sound

going to put it as my alarm

[red blade]

i hate this game

[devout granite]

take breaks when you feel it's getting frustrating

No reason to bang your head against a wall when not feeling good
and a lot of the time when you come back with a fresh mindset the thing you were struggling with becomes somewhat easier to deal with

[red blade]

you are right

i like to play rain world to relax but i think it gets me more frustated

[queen kernel]

Same lmao

[queen kernel]

I hate this area so much too

[red blade]

i loved this area but its just the monsters there

that damn spider

[red blade]

ok so i searched and if i ate all of the flying things from moon, would hate me, is that real?

the best thing i ever did was restart the game after eating 2 omg

[verbal mural]

Please don't restart your save

[verbal mural]

Don't look stuff up! Make your own decisions.

[red blade]

not the save!! i just left the game and joined after eating 2!!

[red blade]

i already saved after not eating any so its just a question!!

just curious if it really is that bad if i ate all flying things back then

[red blade]

im still at this part by the way

[tired escarp]

If youre hungry, youre hungry

[red blade]

i understand, i was hungry so i ate 2, but i left the game and got back to the area and didnt eat any

-# im just wondering if i ate every flying thing that would happen

[heady trout]

something would happen

[red blade]

please i really do want to know dont keep it a secret

[devout granite]

you can find out yourself
but nothing super big happens

[red blade]

i dont want to find out myself i just wanna know im just curious

please tell me

[verbal mural]

Later?

[red blade]

its not like im restarting a save just to eat everything

stop gatekeeping what happens sob

[verbal mural]

It's sorta spoily

[red blade]

you can tell me about anything that happens if i ate them if its not after that part

im asking here exactly because you know what part im in so i dont get spoilers

[devout granite]

the issue is we can't really explain without spoiling you

gameplay wise nothing significant happens, it's just food as far as you're concerned

[red blade]

but like

do the actually hate you if you eat the glowy flying things?

[devout granite]

well ||yea|| (you can easily find this out by yourself)

[red blade]

thats funny

im so happy i restarted the game instead of eating all

(i almost cried when i accidentally killed the )

[astral saffron]

You're not you when you're hungry

[red blade]

you are right

who needs light source when you can just eat the hamster?

[red blade]

helphelp the rain is coming and i will never get this far again sob <@&1137895527271379055>

[verbal mural]

If you can't use the right path, have you tried the left one?

(yes you will, but that's a sign you need to work on your Memory Crypts navigation skills )

[red blade]

i dont have time the rain is coming theres no shelter and even if i find one theres no food

[red blade]

the scissors guy are horrofic

-# what is that word i just created

[verbal mural]

yeeeeeeeeees

[red blade]

they are the reason i stopped playing the game for a long time

[verbal mural]

You'll get better and better at avoiding them once you get a feel for it

[verbal mural]

Well I'm pretty sure you need a spear for the right path, so

The left shaft has more poles I think, and is narrow enough for wall-jumping.

[ebon rover]

i dont think you have enough time you have to go there again and use left pass,you can pass it just bounce from the walls

[red blade]

i tried but no luck sob

only with a spear i believe

but no light source?

[verbal mural]

If you're doomed anyways, use the opportunity to practice the jumps!

[red blade]

do i just go with flash grenade, spear, and luck?

[ebon rover]

you see this little thing on the right? you can bounce from left wall and get on this thing

[verbal mural]

Also, ||you don't need a light source for the Memory Crypts, turn up your screen brightness||.

[red blade]

that will be hard but ill try

[ebon rover]

CHEATING
/j

[verbal mural]

You don't need luck, you need more knowledge. So that you can get here without pressure from the Rain.

[red blade]

but me blind

this rain is worlding

[verbal mural]

Luck is never the answer! If you're relying on it, that's room for improvement.

[red blade]

FOUND A PASSAGE YAYAYAYA

-# but the rain is here

uhm do i force sleep

nvm

oh i hate this game

i have severe depression now

what do i do really

theres no food

but theres a shelter

[tired escarp]

THE PIT!!!!!

THE PIT CLAIMS ANOTHER

The Pit Victim Death Counter: 253

[tired escarp]

Theres always food nearby

[red blade]

i have like 30 clips of me just dying to the pit in this chat

[tired escarp]

Is it The Pit or some random pit

[red blade]

some random pit

i think i died to every pit so far

[tired escarp]

Its still only +1 to the pit then

I already counted it-

[red blade]

why is there a counter

[verbal mural]

Oh

[tired escarp]

lol

[verbal mural]

I will say, ||don't worry about the food, you'll find out why later||

Focus on getting there consistently first.

[red blade]

got there with like only 2 jumpscares from miro birds!!

YAYAYAYAYAYAY I FOUND 3 FRUITS I CAN FINALLY HIBERNATE

IM SO HAPLY

erm

what do i do here?

[tired escarp]

You can pounce

[red blade]

ooh you are right

[red blade]

so this area is one of the most intense regions in the game?

[verbal mural]

Says what? On what metric?

It's probably not the easiest

[red blade]

in monsters probably

[verbal mural]

I would argue the terrain is worse than a lot of the creatures that live there

B is difficult primarily because of A.

[red blade]

[red blade]

how to get to this shelter?

[verbal mural]

Explore

[red blade]

please im tired of exploring

[verbal mural]

Looks like the area on the left isn't fully mapped out, IDK about the one below.

[red blade]

this region is horrible

thank you

[red blade]

why dont lizards attack me? i can jump on them, do anything and the worst they do is bite air slowly

[devout granite]

they seem to like you

[vapid girder]

Frens

[red blade]

wait theres global reputation to lizard too?

shouldnt the orange lizard try to kill me? (pretty bad video because i was afraid of getting near him, but i basically can jump in him)

[devout granite]

[queen kernel]

How many did you tame to make them like you so much lmao

[red blade]

wait fr??

none

i didnt tame any

[devout trellis]

Lizards can sometimes just lose interest

[tiny basin]

I think they are trying to kill you here

[red blade]

but every lizard does that in every region basically

[tiny basin]

just for a very small amount of time

[red blade]

they try but just give up

[devout trellis]

also if you’re generally nicer to lizards they’re leas interested in being aggressive to you

[tiny basin]

oh wait the white lizard isn't doing anything either

[red blade]

i never did anything bad or good to them though

[tiny basin]

oh wait it's monk

[devout trellis]

then It’s probably because you’re playing monk

[flint pewter]

monk starts with a generally higher reputation with lizards

[tiny basin]

ngl I think this is just a Monk Moment

[red blade]

silly monk being friends with everyone

[tiny basin]

I did a monk firstplaythrough and certain enemies were so non-aggressive I literally didn't know they were enemies

I thought they were neutral

[red blade]

scavs also love me

[tiny basin]

yeah that's a monk moment

[red blade]

i even got a passage because of scavs

[ebon rover]

yea while playing as a monk you can almost jump in the lizords and they will not bite

[flint pewter]

they technically are

[red blade]

at the start of the game they were more agressive to be honest

[tiny basin]

wiat what how do you know what creature I'm talking about

I'm not talking about scavs or lizards there

[red blade]

i think i have seen every creature in the game

[flint pewter]

long distance mind reading /j

[tiny basin]

I thought centipedes were passive for a long time

[red blade]

they arent?

[tiny basin]

💀

[red blade]

i remember when a centipede slept with me in my shelter and in the next cycle there was a lizard with me, even though i never tamed any

[devout trellis]

Monk moment indeed

[tiny basin]

oh yeah that happens sometimes

that has nothing to do with monk though

[red blade]

oh these silly monk

[tiny basin]

if a creature sleeps with you in a shelter

then it won't attack you for a certain amount of time after the next cycle starts

so you don't just get softlocked by some random blue lizard coming into your shelter

[red blade]

thats so awesome

[red blade]

i experienced this way to much

garbage wastes

[tiny basin]

Developer foresight? In MY rainworld????

[red blade]

3 scavs sleeping with me for so many cycles

[tidal pollen]

Developer foresight when the SC softlock room pulls up to the function:

[red blade]

oh do i hate underhang (is that even the name)

the region after the leg

[tidal pollen]

understandable

[red blade]

i still havent left underhang, this area is the reason i havent played the game for a long time

[red blade]

is this enough karma to leave underhang

[red blade]

how to get past here????

literally the only place i die

<@&1137895527271379055> help.....

[marsh lagoon]

Can you open your map?

[vapid girder]

you have a friend it seems

[astral saffron]

There is something in the environment that can help you

[red blade]

let me get a ss of the map

[sick halo]

they have used the grapple thingy before it seems

[marsh lagoon]

You can pounce to the left

There’s a platform there

[marsh lagoon]

And to the right

Never mind

Looks like you died trying to go there

Twice

lol

[red blade]

its quite impossible

[red blade]

twice today, 182 times before

[verbal mural]

It's possible with proper grappling

[marsh lagoon]

You might be soft locked without a grapple worm

[verbal mural]

it's hard, though

[red blade]

i have one

[marsh lagoon]

Oh I see

[verbal mural]

I mean, there's also a gate nearby. You'll need to get really good at surviving in the Underhang to pass it, though.

[marsh lagoon]

Yeah it’s def possible them

[marsh lagoon]

Oh, the one to ||5p||?

[red blade]

its so hard to get here

[verbal mural]

(Going for it isn't that hard, just make a note of where all the food sources are and plan your cycles!)

[red blade]

i dont wanna die

[verbal mural]

yes but shhh

[marsh lagoon]

That’s the one I went through lol

[red blade]

please help i dont want to fall to the void again

[verbal mural]

Aren't you at the lowest level already?

[red blade]

what do you mean by that

[marsh lagoon]

Swing the to left, and start moving back and forth to get momentum

[verbal mural]

So it doesn't really matter if you die.

[marsh lagoon]

Karma level

Yeah you can’t lose something if you don’t have it

[red blade]

no one answered my question......

[marsh lagoon]

Do you want to know?

[red blade]

slugnod

[verbal mural]

If you entered from where I think you entered from, the gate was that symbol yeah

[astral saffron]

||technically it is||

[marsh lagoon]

I believe yes

[red blade]

i entered from the leg if thats what you mean

[marsh lagoon]

You won’t be able to go back though

[verbal mural]

So leaving the way you came is level 1.

[red blade]

[verbal mural]

But, don't worry about your level until you find a gate you want to pass.

[astral saffron]

exactly

[marsh lagoon]

Right, usually there’s a hibernation shelter near

[red blade]

i want to leave the underhang and go to the next area, not go back

[astral saffron]

when you find a cool looking gate you'll hunker down and THEN worry about your level

[marsh lagoon]

Where you can karma farm there, and if you want, karma cycle

[red blade]

is there a way to get wings and fly

[marsh lagoon]

Let me check real quick

[verbal mural]

You have a grappling hook, learn how to use it

[marsh lagoon]

Not as far as I know 😭 sorry

[verbal mural]

close enough

[red blade]

is there a way to become a batfly like a vampire

[red blade]

you are right

spiderman.......

spiderslugcat.....

[marsh lagoon]

To answer your question no it’s not enough

If you want to progress

[red blade]

[verbal mural]

wrong

[marsh lagoon]

In fact you’re a bit far off

[marsh lagoon]

Not wrong

[verbal mural]

very wrong, I know my map well

[red blade]

im getting confused......

[marsh lagoon]

Gate to ||5p|| needs ||max|| karma

To enter

[verbal mural]

I'm sure they've already found that one. There are other exits elsewhere with a lower level, though that does not necessarily make them easier

shhh

[marsh lagoon]

Oops

[tired escarp]

:p

[red blade]

nope

[tired escarp]

Dont say too much they wouldnt know

[marsh lagoon]

Yes my bad

[red blade]

i just want to find a way to get out of here, i can worry about karma later

i will try swinging

[verbal mural]

Where are you sheltered, firstly?

[red blade]

in the middle of underhang

i think theres a image

[verbal mural]

There is a gate nearby.

Well, and another one sorta nearby.

[red blade]

here

[marsh lagoon]

Closer than you think

[red blade]

wish me good luck

[red blade]

ill try that

[marsh lagoon]

Oh, I was scrolled up

[red blade]

i died

[marsh lagoon]

You asked about how to get to a shelter

Which was a while ago

Sorry discord just does that for me

[red blade]

am i dead

[marsh lagoon]

Mmm

[red blade]

[marsh lagoon]

Not if you act quick

You can gain momentum

By swinging back and forth

Once you get enough you can let go and latch on to the ceiling

Or that hanging rock

[red blade]

i hate this game

sobsob

sob

[sick halo]

if you wanna be safe, I recommend hugging the ceiling and moving somewhat slowly

[red blade]

im dead already sadly

[sick halo]

just for future reference

you were pretty much doomed there

[red blade]

FINALLYYYYYY

where do i go now

<@&1137895527271379055> sorry for the second ping but i really dont wanna die now

[vapid girder]

from there there's only one way to go

[red blade]

id like to know where

because if i die here i give up

have you ever cried out of anger

literally uninstalled the game

[red blade]

found a passage close to my shelter

[red blade]

i have not got to that shelter yet

[verbal mural]

(kinda surprised you didn't see that before but hey)

nono

wrong pit

[marsh lagoon]

?

[verbal mural]

delete that

[marsh lagoon]

I was told that for my playthrough

Same shelter too

[verbal mural]

It's only the one at the bottom of the Leg.

If you were giving that in your playthrough that's in error

[marsh lagoon]

is that not this one?

[verbal mural]

No, that's Underhang.

[red blade]

yeah, was so angry after dying TWICE close to the next shelter so i decided to explore a bit

[verbal mural]

Always a good idea. Don't ever force yourself down one hard path without extensively checking for others

[red blade]

should i farm karma so i go to that area?

or should i just continue like what i was before

[verbal mural]

Your choice

[red blade]

please tell me if its worth

is there a remix mod settings so that i dont need the required karma? im so tired of underhang

[verbal mural]

Worth how? They both lead to new places

[red blade]

is it a good area?

[verbal mural]

Please don't be intimidated by the requirement, there's a ton of food around. Just make sure you know where the food is and you have a plan to get it.

[verbal mural]

yeah it's pretty neat

[red blade]

i only know 3 spots
one near that passage (already ate everything), one near daddy long legs and one close to the shelter i died twice trying to get to

thats not enough

i have 2 karma, and i think i need 4?

and im not going to that shelter just to get the food, even if i wanted i cant

[verbal mural]

There's definitely more than that, and closer

[red blade]

so maximum level 3 karma

[verbal mural]

And food does regrow over time, it's not lost forever.

[red blade]

is there a map with the foods? i dont mind the spoilers for that, im just tired of this area and dont want to explore

[red blade]

how many cycles?

[verbal mural]

Varies, short enough that you'll probably be able to use at least one food source twice.

[verbal mural]

Hmmm... there's 6 (?) in the path to the gate, another 6 (?) on the left passage. That's the interior part, there's more below in the hanging portions, but it's a fair bit more dangerous to get OFC

[red blade]

this game is so hard, wish there was a difficulty option

[verbal mural]

Oh, and maybe 4 more in the indoor segment on the right.

[red blade]

anyways, thank you very much!! you always help me

[red blade]

and how much karma for the gate? is it 4?

[verbal mural]

5

I would recommend scouting all of these areas while your karma is still low, so you know exactly what you're going to do.

[red blade]

ouch max karma

[red blade]

you are right, but now i have karma 2

the game also hates me

[verbal mural]

I don't think it would really be the same game without the difficulty

[red blade]

a grapplebug decided to stick to me and didnt want to release me, making me stuck unable to die unless it rained

[verbal mural]

When survival games are easy it sorta takes away from the survival vibe

[verbal mural]

You can definitely get out of that

[red blade]

but sometimes you are just tired of the game being hard and cant leave a area, so you just uninstall the game

[verbal mural]

(it will probably also release you on its own at some point)

[red blade]

that would waste my time, and i had zero karma so i just left the game

[verbal mural]

Well you didn't learn how to escape

so, missed opportunity.

[red blade]

[verbal mural]

(case in point: now you run the risk of it happening to you during food runs, and you won't know what to do about it because you didn't take the learning opportunity when it was safe)

[red blade]

do you have a suggestion on what should i do to just leave underhang asap?

is that gate the best option?

[verbal mural]

Probably? I mean, it's right there.

Could always use a Passage if you have one, but, yeah, the gate is right there.

[red blade]

i have two passages but i want to use them only if i really need it

like that one time i went back to outskirts when i was in garbage wastes

anyways, thank you very much again!

[marsh lagoon]

Look through the remix settings and enable or disable various options to tweak the difficulty

[verbal mural]

Most of the ones that actually affect anything are also pretty direct game-balance-breaking cheats, though, be warned.

[marsh lagoon]

I mean some make it easier without changing the gameplay too much

For example quality of life stuff like enemy indicators to go along with the music

Or the breathing indicator

[verbal mural]

oh true

[red blade]

i have enough karma now!

so scared to die accidentally and lose my karma

just woke up and i will go back to sleep

its greay having food in my shelter

[verbal mural]

That was quick

[red blade]

these orange lizards slimes really are a good food source

they respawn quickly

finally leaving the worst area in the game

five pebbles

silly name

[verbal mural]

yes

[red blade]

its so good to sleep in another area

after 235 deaths

thank you everyone who helped me leave underhang

[red blade]

-# /s

THERES NO GRAVITY THATS SO COOL

[verbal mural]

[red blade]

can i release my grapple bug now?

[verbal mural]

Welcome to Five Pebbles

[red blade]

i feel like a astronaut or something

[verbal mural]

I mean it's less useful in zero-gravity, but, your choice

[red blade]

i think this grapple bug is like a pet to me

hes been with me since the leg

can i store him in my shelter? if yes, ill try

[verbal mural]

I love the way the game introduces you to it here, you jump out of a pipe expecting a normal room and then suddenly go flying into the "ceiling"

complete with cartoon whooshing sound effect

[red blade]

i was like "why is the spear floating?" then i just started flying

also, what are these blue wires?

are they safe to touch

[verbal mural]

Did you not just shelter?

[red blade]

these

[red blade]

i dont want to lose my karma!

[verbal mural]

You just passed a gate, the chances of you needing it again in the near future are low. Said gate is even minimum-level to backtrack through, not that I think you'd want to do that

Or you can avoid it for now and find out later when at lower karma

[red blade]

good idea

[verbal mural]

I would rather not say for now.

[red blade]

but i would love a spoiler

-# /j

i will just ignore them by noe

now*

HELP

can i eat the red flying things or are they like moon neuron

[verbal mural]

Also would rather not answer that for now

[red blade]

please tell me

i accidentally bited one

didnt ate it though

[verbal mural]

you will find out soon enough

[red blade]

i will just release them

i dont want to make a mistakr

im just going into circles

[verbal mural]

Remember you can never permanently ruin your save file, eating the stuff in Looks to the Moon isn't exactly game-ruining either.

[red blade]

it is, you kill moon!!

[verbal mural]

Well, sure, but that doesn't interfere with your survival
Just, don't think you'll be "locked out of the true ending" if you did.

[red blade]

can you please tell me if something bad happened because i bited it

just one bite, didnt eat it

[verbal mural]

no

[red blade]

[verbal mural]

Didn't even make a noise

[red blade]

/srs?

[verbal mural]

The surrounding machinery and weird blue wires did not visibly react to you biting the thing

[red blade]

i hope nothing bad happens

im willing to leave the game and rejoin like with moon's neuron

who turned the lights off

woah this area is beautiful

[verbal mural]

The world is full of beauty when you can find a way to view it from a safe distance.

[red blade]

daddy long legs killed me.

how did he even find me

[verbal mural]

Good question

[red blade]

are these blue things part of him

i noticed there arent many food in this area

what do i eat?

[verbal mural]

There is one option

[red blade]

is the option something i bited before?

-# also is it bited or bit

[verbal mural]

The thingy you didn't want to eat

[red blade]

so its okay?

did i just die because of a daddy with no legs in the wall

rip my karma

im on karma 2 now, i hate these daddy long legs

wait, there are no rain timer in this area? was searching for a easy way to go through without dying to dll

[verbal mural]

Well, you haven't drowned yet

[red blade]

oh my god

just met the person there

idk who is that person but they look like moon

and they talk?!?!?!?

im at the shelter after leaving 5p i believe

DIFFERENT KARMAS???

X karma??????

[red blade]

the shelter before leaving 5p*

leaving rn

what is that? after speaking to him i just went back to my shelter

[red blade]

after 60 cycles, im in the wall and killed my first monster, it was the one that looks like a pole

[verbal mural]

[red blade]

is that god

[sick halo]

🍿

[red blade]

i already hate chimney camnops

should i go to chimney canops or continue descending in the wall? <@&1137895527271379055>

[red blade]

and im back to the underhang, this area to be specific

[wheat thistle]

Oh wait, I just saw your previous messages

[red blade]

whats wrong?

[wheat thistle]

I thought you hadn't gone to FP

[red blade]

i really need help, descending more the wall leads me to underhang

my only option is chimney canops?

[wheat thistle]

I would recommend chimney

[red blade]

but im dying sm

my only choice though

[wheat thistle]

You can technically descend through the leg but I would say it's worse

What would you say you're dying the most to?

[red blade]

falling to my death

i really dont know where to go

my journey was
underhang>five pebbles>the wall

never visited chimney before but everyone go from chimney to the wall

[sick halo]

🤔
have you unlocked any of the extra symbols in your sleep screen yet?

[red blade]

yep

the extra karma

[sick halo]

I mean the ones that stick out to the side

[red blade]

stick out to the side?

i dont think so

do you mean the passages?

[sick halo]

yep

[red blade]

i have two passages to use

why?

[sick halo]

have you seen how they work yet?

[red blade]

yeah, its like missions and you can use the passages to teleport to any shelter you visited before

[sick halo]

🫴

[red blade]

-# i dont get it

[sick halo]

well, you're stuck, yeah?

[red blade]

i just dont know where to go

[sick halo]

there's new paths in every area; if you're stuck in one then it never hurts to go back to another and see what you can find

ofc you're more likely to see new stuff by sticking around the new chimney region

[red blade]

should i go to chimney

aah

im so confused

please tell me where should i go, you can spoil me

[sick halo]

I'm saying you could passage to a safer area if you're feeling stuck

[red blade]

please tell me where you would go in this situation

[sick halo]

the person gave you directions

I can repeat them for you if you'd like

[red blade]

well i forgot them......

i didnt actually but

wheres west?

which direction?

[sick halo]

left is west, generally

[red blade]

left lead me to the wall, is there a way to climb more?

[sick halo]

so you could head left in chimney or passage to a safer area and head left from there

[red blade]

which do you recommend? please tell me, i dont want to explore

[sick halo]

I recommend a safer area if you're feeling stuck, but exploring is like

the whole game 🙂

there isn't a correct answer in this case

[red blade]

a safer area like where?

[sick halo]

it's just the path of least resistance

[sick halo]

tbh that's not something I could answer for you, I dunno where all you've been

[red blade]

every area i believe

[sick halo]

and I don't want to make all of the decisions for ya

[red blade]

lets see

the exterior, outskirts, uhhh

uhhh

garbage wastes, lttm

i forgot the rest

[verbal mural]

I doubt that...

[marsh lagoon]

I feel like this is directly asking so I’m gonna answer you directly

Since you already left though

I’ll just say it

There doesn’t seem to be another sign of food anywhere in there

And it looks like there’s millions of them

Also, nothing happened when you ate one

Soo

I’m sure you can connect the dots

[red blade]

yeah, i already ate every single one

delicious

[red blade]

first playthrough (with unmarked soilers!!)

[red blade]

<@&1137895527271379055> help!!

[vapid girder]

you should know how to cross this one at this point

[red blade]

i dont, please help

i dont wanna die here

i dont want to risk

[sick halo]

a simple pounce will make it, just make sure to fully commit!

[vapid girder]

[red blade]

long jump?

[sick halo]

don't be too afraid of dying there anyways; it's never too hard to get back somewhere

[sick halo]

yuh, the one you did to leave the tutorial

[red blade]

i did it!!!

[sick halo]

🥳

[red blade]

yay

hoe to do the jump that you need to throw a item?

how*

i cant do it

aw i love scavengers

[sick halo]

explain?

[red blade]

its like a long jump but you need to throw a item while in the air so you can jump further

[sick halo]

could you send a picture of the jump you're referring to?

I know what tech you're talking about tho

I just wanna know the spot

[red blade]

i just want to know because rn im just searching for food and shelter

i hate this game

AFTER I DIE IGGY SHOWS WHERE IS THE SHELTER

[astral saffron]

The environment around you is often suited for the conditions nearby. Consider using it to your advantage

[red blade]

i didnt understand this at first, now i see, i understand it, i see the flying squids

dumb vulture tries to kill slug and fucking dies

[red blade]

<@&1137895527271379055> what happens if i turn on the "turn off every karma requirements" option?

[vapid girder]

The gates won't require any karma to pass

[red blade]

can i turn it on then turn it off just to pass a gate?

[vapid girder]

Yeah. You can do that

[red blade]

is there a disadvantage or something

[vapid girder]

There's no disadvantage. It is listed as assist so you can adjust the game to exact difficlulty level you want

[red blade]

its just the warning when trying to turn it on

scary warning

thank you

[devout granite]

If you were a completely new player and saw that setting they could get through the game without ever figuring out how karma works so its good that it seems scary :3

[red blade]

now i did it

i saw every region in the game

every non dlc region

i slept on every area

from outskirts to subterranean

im the eepiest

[red blade]

how do i leave filtration system

i found a gate, for drainage system so i just went back

<@&1137895527271379055> how to get to where the scav is?

[tired escarp]

Wander around, you'll find the path if you look around that area enough

[red blade]

i think i know how but theres a lizard there

yay i did it

[tired escarp]

Yipee

[red blade]

i had no food to the shelter near here :(

[red blade]

i did it

i beat the game

almost 2k messages here, 6h8m, 73 cycles

[oblique radish]

good job !

[red blade]

[tired escarp]

Welcome to the 10% :3

[red blade]

anyways, thank you everyone, especially @verbal mural for helping me since i created this post, to #1272670046434492426 i go

monk was such a good campaign

i started playing as gourm with a friend and as hunter with another friend

[red blade]

#1319676514853326969 by the way

[queen kernel]

Congratulations:))

[red blade]

i want to beat survivor campaign so in the select campaign screen it looks beautiful, but it will be pretty boring so i want a challenge for me to do until i beat the game

any reccommendations?

[sick halo]

if you're doing a survivor repeat.... @Scholar.

[red blade]

scholar?

[hoary belfry]

Collect every colored pearl in one shelter

[red blade]

i want a easy one

[hoary belfry]

That one's easy just long

[red blade]

i need like 800 passages for that

[hoary belfry]

You could die to fall damage in every region @Decension

[red blade]

and i can only get a role after 10 challenges

[hoary belfry]

You get a colour role for any one server challenge

(I did Reverent, Kalum did spearfisher)

[red blade]

oh thats so cool

whats the easiest with a cool color?

[hoary belfry]

Depends what colours you think are cool

You can see the colours without spoilery descriptions in #challenge-info

And then we can tell you if you've picked a really hard one

[red blade]

im okay with soilers, i beat monk and survivor

just not hunter, i was beating the game as hunter with my friend but he stopped

and i was pretty far

[red blade]

the cooler the color the harder the challenge

[hoary belfry]

Ah, ok
If you know what hunter's goals are and how to beat it, there aren't many more things to spoil

[red blade]

ill try doing a challenge later

what about dlc challenges?

are there spoilers?

i have only beat gourm and riv in the dlc, im beating spearmaster now

(trying to, i just got to shaded citadel after 4 hours while in 4 hours i beat the game as rivulet)

[hoary belfry]

Dlc chals definitely still have spoilers

[red blade]

nooo, soilers

anyway thank you!! im going to try to do a challenge as survivor or as gourm because hes the best slugcat

[hoary belfry]

Gl!
The msc part of the sheet will still have spoilers
