Well, much more complex this one :D

Freaking bled out 4 times already. Playing without wiki or anything, so haven't really discovered anything that would stop bleeding yet.

I couldn't even figure out how to make a fire and then I fought something in the water that looked like a grey rock but I imagine it was probably a shark or something, then died lol.

Yeah I figured right clicking stuff tells you what it is and I managed to right click that rock in water to find out it's a shark :D

Very fun! Got sucked in...

Best find is a golden sword!!! (+8 to attack)

I hate Bear, Imp, Fire Elemental, Boggling... whatever that is!  :lol:

Fire elementals are easy to kill, but they're pretty annoying. Woke up one night to having one of them burn through the wall of my house. So now I'm building a stone wall.

The trickiest enemies I ran into so far though are the pirate ghost and that teleporting imp thing. Both can attack you behind walls, so I've started being pretty careful about not letting my health get too low.

Great concept (it's like improved Terraria) but it's hard to look at because of turn based choppy animations. And I hate Final Fantasy 3 graphics and top down view. Greatest quality is the fact it's running inside a browser but they can do better than this.

Of course, I've wasted 4 hours in a row on this game but that has nothing to do with game itself but with concept of the game. And that definitely isn't new.

Like it a lot.
Died some times, not knowing what to do.
Stupidly died once of bleeding after having killed my first bear.
Then restarted till i had the island i like, with "normal" trees, grass and rocks.
I planted some common mushrooms, and damn, thoses things spawn fast ! I had 3 in the beginning, something like 15 now, planted all over the place. xD

Finally killed my first "time kriter" or something. This bastard went into my safe zone... still don't know how. Maybe because of his strange double movement, bypassing my walls/trees.

Ah ah. Happened to me as well. I'm relocating in the center of a mountain, after having cleared a way. I'm saving stone walls for a safe place in the cavern, wich entrance i found after mining. Got me surprised.

Also saving up on cooked spiders. Around 10 in a corner. Thoses things lost for forever.

I have no problem for food, got myself 1 spare leaf bed, and 2 poor bandages. And gold coins !
I still fear for my life everyday.

I love this game.^^

After which you get sent back. You get to keep your skills and inventory, but you lose all your buildings and stockpiles. I don't really see why you'd ever want to do it.

I tried archery.
And i hate it.

It's just so long, having to go in round to pick up back your arrows, doing 0-2 damage mostly.
Bashing people up with the spear seems way more effective.


Same with throwing, it seems useless.

Anyone tried to up thoses skills to use them, and not just to up talent ?

One thing I hate is that monsters don't despawn. Whenever I decide to sleep, and sleep through the night in my shelter, the moment I step a foot outside, there's just a gang of monsters waiting for me. Perhaps they're not close, but after a few days it just gets insane. 20+ monsters on my screen is just not fun.

You get points for that, that's the "end game". I still enjoy building stuff, won't press rescue button any time soon.

Well, I'm OP atm and 20 monsters isn't an issue for me.

Throwing is my safeguard... I throw rock at shark from the shore or I throw rock at everything else from the sea.

Ammo are so easy to make. Sandstone, rock, stones, etc.

OP  :D

I managed to die in the end. Had like 2 HP and wanted to heal a bit so I ate Offal :rolleyes:

Basically killed myself, because I could escape to the sea. Was great in everything and also had a ton of treasure. Was playing this session for a whole week...
Title: Re: Wayward
Post by: Bulzur on May 31, 2013, 08:51:53 pm
How could you die ?  :shock:


I mean, starting a point, you're just too strong for the current monsters.
And you always have a poor bandage
(click to show/hide)
in case you unluckily get bleeding.


Then again, i'm really staying in the same zone, mining big tunnels in the cavern while looking for limestones/talc/iron.
Funny thing is i can't even drink all the while, since when my hunger is full, it actually gives me malus everything ("you're overeating"). Can't craft my stone wall :(

I wasn't bleeding, was just careless and went against way too many monsters in a row using just my bare hands (attack rating 8). Few of them got lucky and chopped good portion of my HP (I think it was critical strike) and I was low and wanted to flee (was very agile too) but decided to eat something to heal a bit. Too bad I made dumbest move possible and ate Offal (minus HP) and died because of it :lol:

Next day started from scratch, made good progress and wanted to save and quit and instead pressed remove this game from memory :lol: :lol:

Regardless of that, I started fresh new game and I'm almost at strong level. I'm kinda addicted to this game.

Badly want full 3D version of this with fancy graphics, dynamic story and partial simulation of the world (terrain deformation, fuil physics and other fancy stuff) and multiplayer. My dream game :wink:

I've made a pirate fortress at the sea, connected with wooden bridge.

Post by: Bulzur on June 21, 2013, 04:24:02 pm
Every now and then, i'll come back to this game. It's really refreshing.
With the update, there's more items and the possibility to dump them in the water.

I'm continuing my terraforming. Already got a nice pool north-east, inside my "in-construction" fortress.
And once in a while, i'll go outside, fight a bunch of monsters, and come back in.

Having more fun building things up, digging up sand out (making water), and building a sand bridge north, than fighting monsters.


(click to show/hide)

I'm even thinking of starting a monster ZOO ! (except damn critters, moving twice, jumping above wall, and ghosts)

The idea, putting trees around, then chopping them off till all leaves are off (you can see through them). Then luring monsters in it, and closing with a wooden door or a tree. Hard part would be closing behind them, except if i stay inside, and circle around, closing both entrance in one go. I'll have to go fully iron equipped, in case trouble happens.
For sea, putting sand all around, keeping a deep water or water. Then throwing rotten meat, meat, offals or watever, till a shark or a fish appears. Already happened, but i killed it. Damn frenzy.

We're not playing in the same league !  :lol:

That's some insane amount of work though. Can't find a good word to transmit my feeling about it. "Nice" doesn't cover it.

It's the only game I've been playing for past 20 days. Couple of hours a day on average, sometimes more (split into two hour session). I'm not done yet but it's fun as it was a week ago.

It can't be seen in the screenshot because I had to zoom out webpage directly in Chrome (which messed up fonts as well), but I'm able to carry 269 kg(or lbs) of weight. Makes everything much easier.
