Tips For Building The Best Base In Don’t Starve

Before spring starts, craft a lightning rod and place it in your camp. This rod will attract lightning and keep it away from your precious resources, so you won't have to worry about losing them all in a f

Wilson is the first character to be given a backstory through a cutscene. In the trailer for the game, we see Wilson as a defeated scientist with failed experiments, lacking inspiration. A mysterious voice compels him to build a huge machine, filling him with great knowledge. Once the machine is finished, he hesitates, but the voice aggressively commands him to pull the lever and activate it. With a fitting evil laugh, shadowy arms appear through the floor and drag Wilson to the world of Don’t Starve . Poor guy. We also see Maxwell laughing above, proving him to be the antagonist of the g

Wigfrid is exclusive to the Reign of Giants DLC, unlocked through gaining enough experience. She is dressed like a Valkyrie, a figure from Norse mythology, but that doesn’t mean she is one. Several clues tell us this: when she examines a pirate hat she says, "This hat confuses my character… I mean, my söul." Plus, the loading screen text related to her says that she "cultivated her persona" over many years. So if her Valkyrie form is just a role she plays, it’s likely her name isn’t even Wigfrid. So who is she, rea

Because the spring brings a ton of rain, it also brings lightning storms. These lightning strikes can hit anything in your camp and can be completely disastrous if it sets something on fire. We've all had a chest get hit by lightning and lost everything ins

What kind of old librarian isn’t a crazy cat lady? Wickerbottom doesn’t disappoint, as Wilson expresses an understanding that she used to own a cat. Not only that, but when examining the Lucky Cat Jar as Wickerbottom, she sighs sadly. When examining a Kittykit, {Hytale Cancellation|Hypixel Studios|Stardew Valley revival|she says that it feels "likehome." Clearly, she loves cats and had them in her life at home. Poor Wickerbottom's stuck in The Constant without her beloved feline friends. And as an insomniac, she can’t even see her cat companions in her dreams. Better befriend a kitty

Aside from being a king, Wilbur is still your average monkey. He loves bananas, and will even gain 10 Sanity Points from eating them. He can’t speak and uses several variations of monkey gibberish to talk throughout the game. But, if you examine bananas when playing as Wilbur, he will cry "Nanas!" His love of bananas is so great, it grants him the power of human speech. Who would have thought bananas were such powerful things? They can also be used to recruit other prime apes to be your followers. All you gotta do it give them bananas. Perhaps they can now speak limited English,

This one needs no introduction. Longer Days is a simple mod that allows you to customize the length of a normal day with an easy to use config file system, which is perfect for those who like more realism and immersion in their ga

It, therefore, becomes a bit stupid when you are being shot for hours on end, falling off horses, even not eating or drinking for a long while, and survive, but as soon as the water gets above your head? You're dead. The same happens in Red Dead 2 when, no matter your health and fortification, you will die in seconds if you swim with Jo

This is an issue that becomes nonsensical all down to the player, but how can you blame players? The game is so fantastic, with so much to do, that going and doing the story mission after mission with no break, as logical as it may be, is not as

You've likely already crafted an Alchemy Engine for your base, so before summer starts, you're going to want to put it to good use by crafting an Ice Flingomatic. Keep it fueled up with logs, rot, or Nitre and it'll put out fires as soon as they start. Make sure that you collect the ice to craft one during the spring before it all me

As great as they are, though, horses in the game can be infuriating. Especially when your horse, despite your protests, seems to have an immense urge to run into a tree. There are also the times when your horse is unable to jump over tiny rocks, and you end up falling over, sometimes even leading to your de

Wendy is haunted by her dead twin sister, Abigail. Obsessed with her to the point of talking to her frequently, Wendy can summon Abigail’s ghost to fight alongside her in combat. This is helpful in beating mobs of monsters and keeping Wendy safe. But why is Wendy so obsessed with her late sister and unable to move on? The text from the loading screen involving Wendy states that she "clings fiercely to the grief over her sister’s death" because she’s afraid that moving on would make her forget Abigail. That makes her depressing character seem less weird, but certainly sad

Another major challenge of the summer is the fact that the Antlion will get angry and demand gifts. If you don't manage to find Antlion and hand over those gifts, this giant will destroy the ground around your camp, leaving it unsightly and difficult to walkclass=
