Talking about keeping warm in winter and staying dry in spring: Me who has never survived past fall: : /
@Just A Chair Did he though? I'd imagine a video titled "20 Mistakes Noobs Make in Don't Starve Together" would serve more to show noobs what not to do instead of berating them for being a noob. Surely you watched the video? Did he sound that toxic? Quite possibly the dumbest comment I've seen in a while.
@Just A Chair Not worth getting angry over, get a punching bag or something. If what you say about him is true that's just his opinion. You're welcome to disagree with it
If you do survive past fall, you are gonna HATE it. Unless you are using willow as your character then it will be kind of hard to keep yourself warm in the winter, and I suggest if you create a new game that you don’t put it to winter, because that’s gonna be a huge challenge :,,,)
It’s easy just click ‘endless mode’ in options and you’ll get past fall 👍😅
@Just A Chair I know Edgy Rick just can't stand and opinion also he's right about shadow creatures but I don't like being colorblind
“Play my way or else I’ll call you a nOoB”
It feels like he has no idea about so many things in game. Oh well, we know better who the real "noob" is ;)
Don't get me wrong, his content is okay, but what you said really sums up what this video is trying to say to new players.
At this point i dont get anyone cares what does rick say, like we trying to have fun not trying to tryhard the game…
@@karolfortuna8522 lol yea
ye, there's some good advice like not makeing your base right away, not building walls and actually making weapons and armor and breaking random pig houses for resources (why am i not doing it?) but good chunk of advises are purely tryhard things that do not apply to a more casual playstyle

@@zib7178 yeah wormwood is dope, love him so much, you dont even need to water the crops.
"Thermal gear is a poor choice" Ah yes, I'll absolutely need marble armour and a football helmet when gathering food and maintaining my teams base in the winter/summer.
If you're just base sitting then any gear will not really matter. Anyway, it is still more efficient to just use thermal stones as you can just juggle between fresh ones instead of cooling down/heating up for a while beside a fire.
@@eien1107 I'm curious the bases you build that are that close pressed, you can just stay near your source of warmth or cold and still manage your farm or all else without catching mass fire or getting stomped by a giant. lol
@@Leon_- I'm saying you can do pretty much whatever you want, but you'll be more efficient in general if you let the heatstones hug the heatsource for you. We build our stuff away from the "dwarf star area" so we can't hug it while cooking/farming, we still put the polar light there as it'll freeze you if you are too close. That or we have mushlights or just wear a CC crown. A bunch of heatstones are beside the furnace, polar light, or in a fridge, swapping between them when needed.
@@Leon_- I'm curious what impairment you have that prevents you from putting your warm thermal stone into ice chester and picking up the frozen thermal stone from the ice chester. Also >manage your farm lol, lmao even dude. Do you even know where you are?
@Shinobu Oshino This great impairment called a job, other games, and different hobbies. I don't play using meta strategies because why would I? It's not a competitive game, it's an open-ended survival game. So I play the way I find fun. Besides the fact my original comment is nearly a half year old, I don't tend to have Chester at base with my teams, since they take Chester for their boss things, I assume. And yes? Manage the farm, what's "lmao even" about that exactly? When I did play more regularly, I enjoyed base sitting. Part of that was learning how to grow giant crops on my own. You use ice Chester. Congrats. I use campfires, endos, fridges and thermal stones.
I must say I'm in love how everyone just straight up turned against him in the comment section
This is the first video I've watched from this guy, and reading all these comments is pretty hilarious.
me too i was getting angry at him and felt so alone until i went to the comments
The video really does seem less like "mistakes noobs make" and more "why aren't you playing how I play" The joy of Don't Starve is every comes at it with a different view and play style I mean look at mega base videos not a single one is even slightly similar Like he baits you in with sentences like "some people like" and you are like oh okay he's acknowledging other playstyles but then immediately throws the "but why in the hell would you when.."
I'm new in the community, is there a reason why people hate this guy sm not just this vid but all his old vids got a lot of hate.
@@Nana-tx2mu the way he speaks of the other players, and diminishes them gives him a bad rep.... Not to mention that he doesn't understand the game well enough, even when this was released, there were many fallacious claims in this video, such as farming being useless.... Which simply isn't true, and it's potentially necessary for a large group of people. Farms have food items better than blue mushrooms, like 40 HP for dragon pies(3 twigs and a dragon fruit in a pot), or potatoes and tomatoes, which also give 20 HP each without the sanity drain. Some of the information is correct, but there is far too much belittling on the part of Edgy Rick, and he thinks he knows better than the rest of us. Like how he was dissing on stone fruit bushes, that many players enjoy, or saying that you have to play the way he does, eating raw blue shrooms, and being constantly chased by sanity monsters, bc "you will be strong enough with strong magical items", despite the fact that many experienced players wouldn't even do this... Because there is little reason to be insane all the time, many players simply don't enjoy it, and it wasn't really designed to be a pleasant experience for players. There is also no reason to fight everything with a dark sword or Hambat, there is no shame in having other mobs fight each other while you reap the benefits...on and on, ect. There are many different ways to play DST, and Edgy Rick simply lumps them all in with noob behavior, because he thinks they are dumb, because anything he doesn't do ...is dumb. This is the first video I've seen by him too, I was getting irritated and came to the comments, and discovered it was Edgy Rick, who my friend told me was an infamous toxic you tuber before. Tbh, I can see why, he's a jerk!
bold of you to assume a noob could get a thulecite crown

Same situation, But I was confused until I watched the whole video and realized how he prioritizes efficiency over being a decent human
Tbf their name shows how much they love being edgy so if it makes sense
I love how his farming point was invalidated by the “You Reap What You Sow” update.
Ya, but still it is slow. I use it make pepper, corn , aspergus , garlic, and onlion(just for onion ,pepper, garlic combo). After two year farming you will have enough for whole game till you reset.

”Always wear a football helmet.” Edgy Rick is just that one tough guy that’ll hear someone cough and he will react instantly by yelling ”Huh, what did you say about my mother? You wanna go motherfucker? Let’s go motherfucker!” while taking his shirt off.
The insanity filter is meant to show uh The insanity your character is going through so taking it out feels so wrong Also how is there anything wrong with healthbars? That's most certainly a quality of life mod.
I totally agree with that. I think that insanity is deliberately meant to be avoided unless you instantly need nightmare fuel or fighting Fuelweaver. Unfortunately, Insanity creatures being easy for professional players is one of the reasons why you see them always looking around in paranoia (Their characters, at least). I personally avoid insanity because it's effects look downright horrifying and make the gaming experience worse, even if you can deal with them, knowing that there are insanity demons hunting for your soul is anxiety-inducing and so on.
Healthbars aren’t really q o l because not having them is a feature to make it so you can’t tell when you’re done fighting something, but whenever I say this for some reason people just assume that I hate EVERYONE who plays with mods
i think he meant decreasing enemy health with mods
@@Jeb_Redacted you’ll notice in other survival games with combat, when enemy health starts to be excessive they implement healthbars. The wither in Minecraft has 600 health. The ancient fuel weaver has 40,000. For big fights health bars are necessary or the player is going to feel like they are achieving nothing.
@@Jeb_RedactedSorry for answering this year old comment, but… If health bar is making the game easier, then what about this “ha ha, turn off screen shaking in settings! This will make your shadow creatures fights so much easier!” advice? Isn’t that a game feature aswell? Author of this video contradicts himself.
Uh... 'scuse you? The log suit has 80% dmg resistance. Tell me that's not good for newbies that don't know how to kite. As if a newbie is going to get a magicluminecense... Also farms are meant to be supplementary, not a primary food source. (Pierogis are great tho)
I know literally everyone uses log suits. Edgy rick is kind of a jerk.
Now I didn't say that. No need to start being like that. Its his opinion, he never openly insulted anyone for using it, just said it wasn't the best later in the game.
@@aidansevigny3580 It's simple, head slot doesn't have any items besides armor that are really useful (top hat, garland, and other sanity-restoring items aren't nearly as effective like green shrooms or cactus). Body slot on the other hand offers you either armor or a backpack, the latter being extremely useful in all parts of the game. You also have to consider the cost of these items, for football helmet you need a pig skin and a rope, for pigs skin you can just smash 1 pig house for 2 easy skins, on the contrary, for log suit you need 8 wood and 2 ropes making football helmet way more efficient and easier to come by.
@@jethro3477 I dunno. Trees literally grow from the ground. Pig houses... don't.
@@kubaGR8 You can remake them with some time. Though farming pig skin can take some time. And besides, even if you leave the pig house, you don't just farm pigs as you pass by.
20 Mistakes "Noobs" make when they try to play as Edgy Rick. Some of they are not mistakes actually, just when you play Wolfgang you will play comfortable, if avoid they. In DST you can play way more character. Wickerbottom can get much food with farms and her book. Wurt cant eat meat, so she really need a farm to eat dragonfruit and other veggies, because berries and caps dont restore much food. Also sanity shouldnt be low in early game, because killing nightmares are spending time, when players actually dont need nightmre fuel (they havent shadow manipulator). P. S. Beefalo hat is awesome, if you wearing helmet instead of it, you just cant kite.
The beefalo hat is completely worthless. Go test out the difference in-game between wearing a football helmet with a full thermal stone and a beefalo hat with a thermal stone. The difference is not worth the time it takes to make the hat, and the sacrifice of armor. You can survive for over a full day with the thermal stone and the football helmet which is more than enough to make winter feel like autumn.
@@bongus6754 that maybe true but dont forget that beefalo hats are also useful with keeping willow warm in winter, going to collect more manure for spring (or winter) and when paired with a thermal stone is actually one of the best combos not to mention the puffy vest you can craft from koalaphant trunks
@@derphatchief7899 The thermal stone is where 95% of your insulation comes from, yes the beefalo hat is useful, but it takes the headslot which should be used for a helmet. Also I'd say that puffy vests waste the chest slot, which could be used for a backpack or a yellow amulet if you have one. Again i don't care how you play the game, whatever you find fun is up to you. I'm just stating what i think is most efficient, and what has gotten me through these parts of the game without as much struggle.
@@derphatchief7899 the best combo is a thermal stone football helmet and backpack/mag
@@derphatchief7899 people play willow?
I'm okay with your other content, but wow this is just wrong. I've been playing dst for a few months now (I know, not as long as your 2k hours that you oh so love to boast about) And for a veteran in a game called don't starve TOGETHER, you quite clearly have no concept of other playstyles. Not everyone wants to play as wolfgang and beat up every mob in the game with a hambat or dark sword. Some people may want to build a base, or build big farms to get efficient crops such as dragonfruit for dragonpie. People might want to download mods, as you fail to realise that for new players, dst is incredibly hard, and for older players mods can add a whole new game experience you just can't have in the original game. In addition, clothing items such as the beefalo hat and winter hat are incredibly useful for your first winter, coupled with a thermal stone you can stay outside for days without need to heat up next to a campfire. So, how about you stop putting people down because of your own closemindedness and actually appreciate other people being different to you. (Go on, call me a noob in the replies, I dare you.)
Favorite noob
@@lunaredevinare7913 No the person in the youtube vid is wrong when it comes to characters not everyone is gonna play wolfgang we have conditions like wurt not being able to eat meat, not in the caves so we make log armor, choices to survive winter
I also agree with you about Dragonfruit. Yes, it's not easy to make but it has more benefits than Pierogi. I was killed by shadow monkeys once they were chasing me, and I couldn't eat pierogi because you need 2 second eating animation to complete to consume meat food. It's almost instant 40HP with Dragonpie.
Noob, this is just recommendations to noobs
@@Dedagamer00 there it is. There it is.
lost me in the mod part... healthbar info, food and weapon info, and geometric placement are essential QoL improvements for me. it saves time my time from always looking up in the wiki on what stats certain foods give. and nobody's willing to remember how many times they should hit certain mobs with a spear until they are killed, right ? we want to get into the game quickly and not waste our time looking up guides...

k but if by "not messing with world settings" you're saying that i must play with diseases on, that ain't happening my guy. The entire mechanic is just annoying and dealing with it doesn't make the game more rewarding in any way. Also, geometric placement makes setting up an organized base much more pleasent and it should probably be built into the game. Nobody would think "wow, how i wish i hadn't this tool that allows me to put up a bush witout having a stroke"
totally agree, i play on ps4 and jesus, i almost have a mental breakdown when i try to build an organized base.
and diseases are pointless af
On my longest survive I survived past first winter, so I have no idea how this disease works. When it usually happens, how it works and how to deal with it?
MrOrzech It usually happens after the first year which is first summer You need to manually check if this healthy grass/sapling is infected by inspecting it and the character has different dialogue when it does, if it obviously looks different compared to others, you cant save the plant and need to uproot the nearby infected ones You just have to dig it up and replant it Or else it infects other nearby plants and make them unable to give resources when its too late Its more annoying since you have to check each grass/sapling if you have massive farms that is not grass geckos or twiggy trees and doesnt really add anything other than a nuisance

Having to stop all your forward motion just to enter a menu just so you can see numbers on your health/sanity/hunger meters (that's how it works in an unmodded game) is pure bullshit and a mod to fix that is just quality of life. Same goes for mob health. It doesn't make the mob easier, it simply reveals information that the game hides from you for no apparent reason. As a video game designer I've always struggled to understand what purpose does it serve. All it really does is discourage new players from engaging combat since they have absolutely zero tools to compare themselves to enemies and whether they are close to finishing it off, or their efforts might as well stop because they've been hitting the monster for 10 minutes with a weapon they don't even know how much damage it does, since that is hidden too. And your argument against it being just convienience is "What are they talking about?". So yea. No argument there. It is quality of life mod, and nothing more.
The only way I can think of hiding health bar being a good choice is in some games like monster hunter were you need to pay attention to the monster's animation to know how badly you damaged it. Dst give you 0 clue about that. It's like you fight a bearger, you know it's going to die because you know how to count kites, but it's just: I'm fine, no wait I'm dead.
Yeah. I'm very knew and got attacked by a walking tree. I was thinking "I'm gonna fuck this tree up" only to die after hitting it for 3 minutes straight with my spear. No idea how close I was to killing it
Some people think tedium is equal to challenge.
I wish I played on pc so I could download the health mod:/
If you dont see enemy health noobs are gonna be fighting a dragonfly or something eventually and thinking its invincible because its still alive after hitting it for 10 minutes straight
Tip 1: “don’t build a baseimmediately” okay, this is something people learn on their like third playthrough Tip 2: “use armour” okay, this is something people learn as soon as they realise how good armour is Tip 3: “fight shadow creatures” was recommended to people who cannot and should not be physically able to 1v1 a beefalo Tip 4: “instead of using combat info and enemy health bars, die multiple time by overestimating the enemy, in a game with no respawn, absolutely zero ways to tell the enemy capabilities and all mobs fighting to death, not changing behaviour regardless of being on 1% or 100% health” (please tell me about boss phases, something that a noob will even reach at all, not mentioning beat down severely enough for the boss to change phase) Tip 5: “don’t reasonably estimate your fighting skills-they’re negative, you can’t kite, the best you can do is stunlock-go on and fight monsters without knowing their hp and damage nor your damage” Tip 6: “go for the ruins, which the noobs won’t even manage to reach” Tip 7: “kill Deerclops” now that’s just laughable. We’re talking about people who can’t even survive till winter or die in it’s first days, and you’re telling them to kill a boss. “Kite him to a swamp” Assuming the noob can kite him and survive the swamp long enough for the deerclops to die by tentacles or merms or spiders. As a lot of people pointed out: this is not a noob guide, a noob will die trying to follow it, this is a speedrunning guide for people who don’t need guides with exception of updates And as if that wasn’t bad enough, there’s the comment replies... Credit where it’s due, you didn’t close them or delete them
Thank you
tip 6 is kinda good if u dont listen to him for mote than its intro. U really shouldn't be afraid of caves, coz with bulbs u can make a portable lightsources that are much cheaper to refuel than torches/campfires
To be fair, I died much more when I dodged Deerclops since the Eyebrella is the only item in the game that makes spring and summer bearable. Deerclops is the only boss you really, really should beat in your first winter and if you can't, keep trying... If you don't, your first spring and summer will likely kill you or force you to waste your time standing around doing nothing as you can't gather many resources or kill mobs when you got to hold umbrella all the bloody time and for summer if you don't have certain things ready such as bird cage, bird, fridge, bee boxes, etc. you'll be in a position that even experienced players would struggle with. Killing deerclops in a swamp is honestly the most noob-friendly way to kill him. Pigs can't do it, neither beefalo so there really isn't much else than direct combat and swamp tentacles. I have no problem with this bit but I agree with the rest.
@@Laireso u dodge summer by going to the caves and spring is countered by wearing a football helmet and an umbrella (pig skin one)
I use enemy health bars and geometric placement r e l i g i o u s l y and u simply cannot stop me
Everyone has a different playstyle. Some like basebuilding and i for sure wouldnt call them noobs. Your style revolves around depleting the world and speedrunning. Its fun for the challenge but it doesnt make them more pro than those who enjoy basebuilding. For example youre telling people not to chop trees and instead break down pighouses... thats only for speedrunners not pros.
You should be breaking down pighouses because the only pighouse you'll ever actually use will be in your base. And if I'm proven wrong, since you now have a pighouse farm in your base, you can build a pighouse anywhere on the map. That's as stupid as avoiding digging up berry bushes, grass and twigs.
The first part was correct... The smashing pighouses information is actually really useful since most people wouldn't guess that a wooden structure gives you pig skin. The other thing about sanity not being a problem if you just get really strong weapons is useful too. The problem is how he doesn't explain anything about HOW you get good weapons and armor outside of weird speedrunner knowledge about how you can rush through a cave dungeon thing to get a thulecite helmet???? and then they dont explain how in the world green mushrooms and a hambat have anything to do with that.
"Mob HP mods isnt quality of life" What...?
Yeah, that’s kinda sounds EXACTLY like a quality of life mod... “What...?” Is right.
Example as to it not being quality of life: During the Ancient Fuelweaver battle, the boss has 16,000 hp, can become invulnerable, and can heal by eating his minions. It's basically impossible to tell what his HP is at any time, and he absolutely can sustain himself forever if you fight poorly. He may be at 50 hp for one moment, then suddenly heal 8,000 the next moment. If I have that mod enabled I can just kill him, but if I don't I'm not going to go out of my way to get one hit in, I may think he still has 10,000 HP when he's a moment away from death. How anyone can think that is quality of life is beyond me, and it shows how nooby you two are.

Really I farm for 2 reasons. The main I just like farming in games. Fishing to. The second is for emergency food. It never rots while planted and if fully grew there is no problem in winter if you run out at night and need food.
Big brain
Farms are bad The beard 777: im gonna disagree
Well, I have a few things. Yes, I'm not an expert at dont starve, but I've been playing it for a few years now and have learned a lot. I do agree that turning off everything hostile and turning up everything useful is not a great learning experience, but it's ok to lessen them and slowly introduce them. Don't Starve is a VERY challenging game and to be honest you are not going to be able to learn everything on your own. You're going to have to do extensive research on about everything because it's basically impossible to find everything by pure trial and error. I think the one thing I understand for beginners is turning off the bosses because it's better to learn how to survive normally first instead of trying to learn the basics of survival and bosses at once. And another note is that people play games to have fun and sometimes they do that in different ways. Some people just want to have an easy fun time and goof around in it and some people want it as hard as possible and are always looking for a challenge. There isn't exactly a "correct" way to play the game, there is only and intended legitimate way to play it. You bought the game, so it's up to you to choose. Just keep in mind that 90% of the dangerous things, especially the bosses, are VERY important to progressing and getting essential items. The game rewards risk, danger, and hard work. P.S. just wanna say that the game specifically warns you that your computer might not be able to handle the caves, so keep that in mind.
for solo players, theres this one mod that exists solely to remove the lag caves cause by shutting down the server that isnt currently in use, absolute godsend for me
Not speedrunning the game doesn’t mean ur a noob btw. U can still play how you want. But rick is right on the best way to beat the game fast.

People have there own play style so why do people say "your doing it wrong thats cheating or your bad at the game from how they play"
Edgy rick *farms are ineffitiant. Me with 48 advanced farms *rolls eyes
Lol I know. It's really stupid. He says they're expensive, but one werepig and some petals easily give you a ton of manure quickly. Rocks and grass? Dude, if you don't have enough rocks and grass to make some of these you're doing something wrong.
@@colorfulchameleon9891 Tbh that's quite expensive compared to just making a Berry Farm and the resources could be used for far better purposes, like making rope for Helmets and Rocks for thermal stones/ most structures... Like sure, if you're playing Warly and want spices, make them but you shouldn't make any more than one otherwise... And once you get the corn for a powder Cake you have little to use it for it... I've never really bothered with Dragonfruit tho so idrk
@@anderrivverwind9267 It's a fair point, but they're not as bad as he makes them seem.
you know birds give extra seeds when you feed them crops to get specific seeds
ok you cannot compare thermal stones and farms and say that they are as expensive
For my fellow noobs this video is really not beginner friendly on the opposite it’s somewhat advanced tips even though he makes some great points sometimes but here’s stuff I took some time to learn as a beginner : 1-Food will kill you a few times but try to learn effective ways to get food such as building near Beefalo and rabbit holes and placing traps for food(check them every now and then) 2- don’t settle down before day 5 at least I prefer to start making a base after day 10 3-not settling down allows you to explore the map and discover important stuff 4-USE MODS , not necessarily gameplay changing mods but some quality of life mods such as(geometric placement-stats always on-food values-Minimap-game performance enchanting mods) 5-avoid attacking large groups of enemies at all cost instead try to separate them 6-watch and read multiple tutorials on how and when to kite/tank fights 7-always have backup fire sources or you will run out of them a few times and die 8-it’s ok to make the game easier using presets or mods when starting the game, I started off using the following preset and my game was somewhat balanced(higher number of twigs and grass-longer days-autumn as my starting season) and having an extra slot for my armor as my only game changing mod because I hated forgetting where my backpack was Don’t forget that for some people the game being too punishing can lead them to quit a game otherwise they would’ve enjoyed and vice versa if it was a bit too easy. FIND YOUR OWN perfect setting
it's bad idea to build base near beefs beacause of beefalos mateing which will make beefs agressive and maybe kill you.
@@laanela1224 which is ironic because only a noob would care to base near beefalo to begin with, the only kind of person who would even die to a beefalo (running away isn't hard)

Me, 600h in don’t starve “Ah time to learn about what I did wrong”
This guy is like the Dark Souls tryhards who don't realize there are different ways to play the game and calls you a noob if you don't use their exact strategy.
12:14 As a Warly main who usually plays on public servers due lack of friends, everyone is mostly fine with me at base while they bring me stuff to make. I do still go out every now and again to help and participate in boss fights so I'm not a total base sitter
Warly is a useful base baby. He's talking about the willows and at least 3 of the 5 Wendy's in a server who just walk around and give you anxiety that you are gonna come back and your base is gonna be burnt down.
Well as long as you do something, then it's good. But he's talking about the willow mains who just sit at your camp and only cook meatballs with 3 blue mushrooms and a large meat every so often to feed themselves.

Edgy Rick: You won't survive the game without ham bats and football helmets Wendy: I'm about to end this man's whole career
If you're playing a worthless character like wendy, it's literally unplayable without football helmet and ham bat. Like, imagine how long it takes to kill deerclops with a spear on a wendy lmao, and if you aren't wearing football helmet, it means you take more damage. Which doesn't help at all, because wendy is a worthless character that takes forever to kill deerclops, meaning you will take even more damage, will need more food, will need more healing items, and will need more logsuits... And yes, tanking deerclops is done because it's faster, and faster means your sanity will be higher, both in game and in real life, because deerclops drain aura is... insane.

Inventory sorting and mini map mod make me a bad player? I was liking this vid at first.
See man I get the fact hes Tryon to help, but lets be honest. Some of the tips apply to only him and kinda sound eitist. Its like a tryhard from TF2 saying "OUR WAY IS THE BEST WAY AND EVERYTHING ELSE IS WRONG". Again, some tips like the dont cook blue caps thing is a good tip, but still you get the point. I like his videos, but maybe saying a simple mistake such as not breaking pig houses and chopping trees instead is a little over the top. I'm not trying to say this as an insult, but there is the fact some of the mistakes arent even mistakes, but tips to how to be a good player, somewhat to the effect of the amount of skill as him himself, thus helping but also somewhat interuppting the trial and error process of players. Edgy Rick, I enjoy your content but maybe you should maybe evaluate if giving a mistake lists instead of a tip list would help the learning process. (Edit) Sorry for long comment and also just to be clear, I will not and am not saying in any way shape or form that Edgy Rick is a bad youtuber. He is awesome. He kinda just needs to know what lane of tips or mistakes he should be going for.
Calling someone a noob isn't rude, a noob, by definition, is just an inexperienced player. These are mistakes that help not only new players, but some longer time players too. In this game, having 200 hours means you are still a noob. You need to learn every detail of every thing that you can do and how to optimize it to be on that high level, and most people who play won't get there. His tips are for both, the brand new players, and the 200 hour players, I still learn a lot from him and I have 409 hours, give or take. I'm not as good as he is and still struggle. You can still play for fun and stuff, but with his guides it seems they are geared towards people who want to learn to optimize everything and become one of the good players, unlike beards guides for example, which are very much so geared towards new players and are easier to learn from if you don't have some experience with the game.
You said it perfectly. This guy is so alienated and full of himself, he really just tried recommending people rush the ruins if they're noobs in order to get better resources early on. 90% of these weren't "mistakes", they're literally required for noobs to do in order for them to get better at the game. Fighting anything in DST is difficult at first, so telling new people to just start randomly fighting is stupid. A better example of a similar "mistake" he could have said, was to not plant pinecones for treegaurds. They are excellent for practicing fighting, and low risk. They are the best creature to teach you how to kite. I honestly hope this video doesn't get a lot of attention from the DST community because it will severely harm any chance noobs had of continuing to play, they are probably looking for help and if they see this and realise that even with this "advice" they can't succeed, they'll just quit, because everything said here is trash. I could come up with a strong counterpoint to most things that were said in this video.
@@corncob3483 yes, because him telling people to wear armor and not use farms will prevent them from surviving
@@robertconners9865 First off, good job ignoring the few things I already pointing out and trying to bring up a new point. Second, the log and grass suit are "expensive", yes, but new players don't know how to fight werepigs so even if this guy tells them to get pigskins for a helmet, the advice is useless for the INTENDED AUDIENCE of the video, which are "Noobs." Things like the log and grass suit are made for newer players to be able to progress to certain parts of the game that they normally would not be able to. It's far easier, and if you're a noob it's far more efficient, to make grass and log suits. Not a football helmet. One of the only things I agree on here are the farm, farms aren't great and I'd definitely recommend new players looking into alternative sources of food since they're likely to starve if they focus on farms TL;DR - Telling noobs to craft armou that isn't NOOB FRIENDLY to get will definitely make them not survive. I agree, farms suck.
@@corncob3483 First off, good job ignoring the actual points Edgy Rick makes. You dont have to kill pigs for pig skin. They can hammer pig houses and pig heads for the skin. Edgy rick literally says this in his video.
i dont quite agree with the early base one. if u look from a competitive point of view, yes it slows down your development. but as a casual player who plays it with my friends, most of them new to this game in fact, i would have the base located at the portal so that they can access resources a lot easier.

Edgy Rick: .*complains about dragonpie not being worth farm cost* Me: .*laughs in Wormwood*
yeah but then you just plant seeds and don't make farms
@@laanela1224 That's exactly my point; not having to worry about the cost of farms makes Dragonpie a lot more viable. The trade-off is that it's slower to grow, but if you can plant more seeds up-front (which is easier with the smaller footprint), you can make sure you have ample supplies in between harvests.
A trick with the thermal stone is to smash the wasd keys around a heat source. That actually helps your stone heat faster, also there are certain caps depending on how big the fire is, there is no max since it works that way theoretically but the highest normally reachable is 50-60 degrees for the thermal stone itself
Fun fact: stacking two thermal stones in a backpack and standing next to a campfire will cause a cascading thermonuclear reaction and cook you alive, even in winter.
I wish to mildly protect the head piece part for myself: I wear the flower crown cause pretty. And cause Maxwell looks so pissed when I put it on him. Also cause I never find useful places like pigs. Or useful anything for that matter.
I will say my favorite base has been the time I played solo as Webber and I got a lot of spider nests near me, and then I opened a sinkhole near me, and stood in the middle of the nightly war.
I use improved farms usually late to mid game as a side source. I usually have other sources and it helps a lot, usually for dragon pies. What you fail to see is while using it as your main source is not the best idea, having a secondary source of health foods to go with pierogis is a lot faster, letting you prepare much faster for something (A boss, going to the cave, moon rush, etc.) which is what you wanted. Telling them to not use farms outright is extremely wrong.
Agree
9:37 lag compensation isn’t always ideal to have off. With my internet it’s literally unplayable with it off. Also I think screen shake is cool.
If I have a surplus of blue mushrooms that are about to rot, I cook them to increase freshness so I can use them as filler for perogi 👍
So I bought Don't Starve like, 5 months ago or so, and I always tought this game was about streching all out to live off up to 10 days and then get killed by the wolves or something. I tought the game was meant to kill you quickly and that it was more of an arcade, but when I heard Number 14, it clicked on me, I knew what I was doing wrong and dude did I fix it. Now I am decorating all my farms with gold and have defeated Misery Toadstool. So far my best Wes run ever.

Shh don't tell them
Mistake #1. Not picking Wolfgang
I've never picked Wolfgang in my 4 years of playing so I'll be a noob forever
Every time I play Wolfgang I die day 3
Haha :)) I mosttly play Wolfgang but WX-78 or wickerbottom are also good what character do you play? Webber Maxwell Wigfrid
I don't really have a main yet... Most of my worlds are Wicker, but on them I only get to day 31 and the like, whereas my second Wx run took me to Day 130....
I allways play Wolfgang
main tip Don;t use football helmet and chest a slot armor at the same time. Using them both wont reduce the damage taken but instead split the durability. Making beehive early and bit far away is ideal, so u can craft honey poultice for healing. making bacon and eggs is good bec it has better stats and take 20 days to spoil. precrafting campfire is good.

1:21 Backpacks are not always needed, such as when you are fighting Giants or Bee Queen as you won’t need that extra storage. If you need to gather resources, you can wear a backpack as the Mobs you are likely to encounter will not be Bosses and rather Hounds, Spiders, etc.

@@ketcapldomates4267 yeah bro, 1 rope and 1 pigskin is so hard to get... So much harder than... 2 ropes and I will stop here because we already established that it's a waste of materials to make log suits.

@@EdgyRick i'd like to give an update, i've played it, and yes, turns out i was wrong. *Not only 4 are wrong*
@@EdgyRick Also, if you wrote the wiki, why are you moking me for using it?
you talk about how using warm clothing or log suits are wastes of equipment slots, but you do realise you can just right click on items and instantly equip them. You can wear a backpack, and then switch to a log suit when an enemy appears and then pick up the pack again when it’s dead.
I think many tips are bad advice tbh and let me explain why 1- log suit can protect you practically as much as a football helmet and is more affordable as pig skin is actually used for many essential crafts and if you’re preparing for a battle and only have one, it should go to a ham bat 2- sanity gain for some characters are very much needed and you really do need more then just a thermal stone to survive winter so using a tam o shanter during winter or when you’re low on sanity is a very good idea 3- even though farms are slow they can be extremely helpful during late game 4: a spear it always a cheap go to when you only need to take care of small things like a level 2 spider nest 5: one advanced farm would be equal to maybe 5 berry bushes worth of time and even though berry bushes are better early on farms are better later 6: he must only play easy characters such as Wolfgang and wx since he does not realize some characters need to fill some needs, like it’s harder to recover sanity as wicker so thats why they tend to save it for books and avoid blue caps or that warly needs farms for food diversity 7: screenshake is nice just for the feel of it 8: quality of life mods do exist and as long as it doesn’t affect the game, as in not changing occurences or lower the health of something the mod is fine, it dosent make you feel less acomplished 9: not getting wood is a bad idea as you will need to remake thise pig houses later on so for that time you’re just being lazy 10: stone fruit is amazing late game. More proof he never gets there I have onky one thing against rick and that he calls anyone who doesn’t follow his exact play style a noob and thats just rude and wrong, do not give him a sub also he really seems more like a very aggressive and not progressive type of player who just spawns in bosses and fights them instead of making worlds that go into late game and i don’t personally think new players should be taking some of his advice. Take it from someone who’s hosted a public world for 300+ days and done well as well as many duo runs that went way further. This is not very good advice for what will be a good world in late game.
1. No, if you wear log suit, then you can't wear something more useful like a magiluminescence, which you should take to like every single fight, because there is really no reason not to. 2. Just kill the shadow creatures, or you know what? There is a glitch in DST where if you run away from 2 sanity monsters so they are offscreen, they will basically be frozen in time and more won't spawn. Also no, thermal stone is just enough but I guess if you got lucky with a tam o shanter you could use it, though the football helmet might still be better for surprise attacks. 3. No, because in late game you will likely get way more efficient methods like bunnyman farms. 4. Just use an axe. 5. No, 5 berry bushes produce a bit more, unless you spend days grinding all the manure, instead of being productive, and again, bunnyman farms for lategame. 6. You don't need to stay high on sanity, just fight the shadow creatures, also if the characters are so easy, why don't you play them? And it's just as easy to recover sanity as wicker as any other character, unless you meant the sleeping part of course, which you shouldn't do, it's a waste of time. 7. That's subjective, but for me personally when an earthquake happens in the caves, I literally can't focus on my screen at all because of how much it shakes. 8. yeh 9. Just break like a ton of them, and you can place a few near your base, and then save the rest for the raw materials (2 pig houses = alchemy engine, apart from gold!) 10. Not really, you can just use cacti as a replacement or BUNNYMAN FARMS, HOW MANY TIMES DO I HAVE TO SAY THIS.
Blue Jay 2. What skilled player can’t hear a spider or a hound a screen away from them? And also surprise attack are kinda unlikely 10: it’s still good as another alternative as it gives rocks. Get like 2 stacks of stonefruit and place them individually on the ground at the Same place one at a time and blow it up with 1 gunpowder and boom stacks of veggie filler and rocks
@@awsome5879 2. I bet you say that and then get surprise hit all the time, nobody is perfect, even the most skilled players could get hit by a sneaky terrorbeak and withouth armor that's 50hp damage. 10. Gunpowder can only blow up 10 rockfruit in total at a time, so no, it's really not a good strategy and you still have to go to lunar island when you could just use cacti for example.
Blue Jay I don’t mean to insult or anything but I usually keep my health high to not die to suprise and the gunpowder rockfruit works for me you have to place them down one at a time individually
@@awsome5879 Well if you get hit by a surprise attack withouth wearing any armor, you won't die, but you will still take alot of damage, also I tested already a ton of times, a single gunpowder only blows up 10 , even if you place like 10 stacks, it will still only blow up 10 in total from 1 stack.
Farming IS useful, the hell you talking about
No, it isn't lol. If you want to get food just use berries and monster meat to make meatballs (ir fist full o' jam if you are wurt). Oh but you need healing? epic, the desert has free cactus all year round. Since monster meat its basically free you can get free eggs, which will never spoil (cuz you can cook them and feed them to your bird for fresh eggs) and then you can make perogies. There's no reason to make farms early-mid game cuz they are expensive and give you back almost nothing in return.
@@gasparinsinritalin8802 Farming is very useful sir, idc what you may say. Farming helps get you food and you don't even have to do a thing. In spring. Farms get a boost and grow even faster. And there is literally no other major use for manure so why not have a farm. Dragon fruit pie is one of the best things in the game
@@mzoseone5399 You have less than 3% chance to get a dragon fruit per seed. If you need food just make a berry farm. Why? They be farmed just with one shovel and a bunch of rot/manure. Berry bushes give you berries and meat (via gobblers). Also farms are expensive to craft, but if you enjoy the game wasting a bunch of grass, rocks and cow shit just to get a carrot, go for it ♥
I don’t farm because my go to healing food is Pierogi and go to hunger food is Bacon and Eggs. Neither of which realistically require farming to get a steady supply of
@Gavin Connor That's because you are bad, there's no other explanation.
hello rick, can I use the mod "geometric placement" and "skip winter" ??? or will i be considered a noob?
No don't skip winter you're gonna need that eyeball and lots of ice for fillers
Just play the Game in a way you enjoy It, have fun.
Winter is a challenge but I think surviving through it could teach you a lesson or two instead of skipping it
Geometric placing is gods gift to man. It's great for managing your space effectively. As for winter, I wouldnt skip it. You'll need deerclops eyeball for the spring, as it rains alot which will decrease your sanity and make you colder. But everyone has their own playstyle.
@@MtnFighter oh yes, he tries to guide people on how to play the way he does, and makes fun of people who say dumb shit like winter gear is good. how evil.

That people can play the game however they want? That would be most splendid. Oh please, wise one, rain your knowledge upon us, blast your brain juice all over our faces.
12:30 a compromise would be maybe using 1 in 2 or 1 in 3 nights as an excuse to go back to your base and get food and prototype stuff, and I personally think that it is better to use magiluminescence than a torch or lantern.
As someone who gets motion sickness super easy learning about being able to turn screen shake off was the only reason I was able to play the game when I got it. I’m grateful it was an option at least lol
Misstakes and sub optimally playstyles are not really the same thing. they are all good tips to survive longer for sure, but some of they are not necessarily mistakes unlike keeping lag compensation on or not useing the mushrooms or other resorces in the wild. For example the screen shake and being topside in summer might not be easier then the alternatives, but it adds to the experience of playing the game. Its not as much of a mistake as its just playing the game differently in a somewhat harder way. Same thing with mods and changeing the world settings, it can make the game easyer ( or harder ) and makes it harder to learn and train your skills in actully playing the game. But that does not mean its a misstake to use them. By the logic in this video the best way to play the game is to rush the ruins and just kill whatever boss or do whatever goal you had in mind and ignore everything else. But that in itself also ruins the actual survival experience for some people.
>play sub optimally because you're dumb >call it a playstyle to prove that you're even dumber than expected It's called learning, unless you're somehow mentally impaired from doing that, I don't see the reason not to.
Stone fruit is good cuz you can plant 20 bushes on base, come back in 4/5 days and get stack of carrots that never spoil
Wow, I didn't actually know the lag compensation one, thanks.
Thanks for the helpful info!

With Webber of my main (Because I have a fondness for insects and arachnids) I disagree with the "Don't use mods" part. I use Snapping Tills all the time. DoEs ThIs MaKe Me A nOoB? I don't think so. Mods are for people who like to mess around or make the game easier/harder. Also on the other hand he is totally obnixious because he literally calls people NoObS for wanting to have fun and express the sandbox side of DST. Like Not Enouth Items which is basically god mode. He also was toxic in the comments. If you scroll down enouth you can see a few replies to people pointing out things close to what I'm saying that are toxic, like "LoOkS lIkE wE fOuNd A nOoB" which is not nice at all. And thats the story of why I disliked.
We can't dislike anymore friend 😔
@@ellagage1256 Yea that was when the new dislike thing in youtube didn't exist
Stonefruit are op. It might take you a while to harvest and mine them but on the other hand it is less time then searching and mining ice, harvesting and getting damage from cactus, you only get 1 berry per bush while you usually get more fruit per tree and lichen you don't get very often while you are not in caves. I bet you never had a massive bunch of stonefruit and monster meat, once I had both those things I made an enormous pierogi feast
Tip: dont rely on your base if you make it early on. I hood way to keep this in mind is to memorise the phrase "rely on your senses not your resources"
Loved the effort put into this video Rick, it felt like your first/old guides, always liked the visuals on those videos
I leave screenshake on because it really destroys the athmosphere Also some mods are useful which show how much hunger and health a food items gives or how much damage a weapon deals. Also combined status and minimap are useful.

Screen shake helps me figure out where a boss like deerclops is if I happen to lose them in a forest, for instance.
I do most of these “mistakes” but i can still easily survive trough everything, and have very high day worlds, solo.
I remember seeing this video when it came out, i thought that it was like, i dunno, i sorta internalized it and thought that i'd been playing the game wrong this whole time, i had to unlearn a lot of the stuff this video "taught" me so i could actually enjoy the game again. When i play games, i play very VERY carefully, i usually dont put myself in dangerous situations unless i really need to, this applies to dont starve as well. I stay at my camp during the night (unless im mid exploration) and try not to fight things until i feel i have good armor. I also like making sure my meters are as high as possible. And yknow what? Thats perfectly fine! Its how i play the game. Does it sometimes limit my experience to not explore as much and play safe? Probably, yeah. But i also get very anxious doing the more advanced things sometimes, im still working up to it :)
It's very easy to die, don't rush yourself i play the same way
Except if you follow tips in this video, you save so much time that you can do whatever you want to, while having almost best in slot items for armor and weapon and stable food source. You clearly didn't follow any tips here, because if you did, you'd be enjoying the game with all the extra time you never had before. The only thing that's optional here is rushing ruins because ruins don't have anything important enough to try and beat them in 10 days, other than fun.
@@shinobuoshino5066 yeah i obviously didn't follow any of the tips, i didn't say i did. I don't care about playing "optimally", i really don't.

I wonder what's stopping you from playing optimally for 20 ingame days just so you can get over the apparently "unfun" part of the game and have more fun. I guess it's hard to have fun when you need to put in more effort than watching world generation window which is the only part of the game that you don't completely suck at.
@@shinobuoshino5066 Literally never said or implied "i have fun wasting time and dying" you are putting words in my mouth in order to further your opinion. in my opinion, a more accurate fake quote would be "i think taking my time and spending hours on farming and farming only is fun even though i could be doing much better things." thats something i have done before, and its not limited to dst/ds. also who in the fuck uses the word "noob" anymore holy shit. also i can play optimally (kinda?), i know how to get an alchemy engine on day 2 (day 1 if i'm lucky enough). i have just over 300 hours in both games combined. also bold of you to assume i suck at this game btw. am i great at it? eh, i'd say i'm just ok at it, but fuck man at least im having fun. i think its funny how mad you are getting about me playing games slowly lol. if you think hearing about me playing dst is bad, you should see me play stardew valley, i literally go the entire spring without a chicken coop half of the time i play or i dont upgrade my tools to iron till fall, or i just wont fish for an entire season its actually absurd. it does make the game more interesting though because it means i have less money to rely on and i have to think harder about what to spend on. anyway, my point is, you sound like an angry 5 year old screaming at me to change my opinion for some obtuse reason, and you dont seem to realize that you are looking in a mirror and are actually mad at yourself for your inability to play games how you want to play them. or maybe you are just a 5 year old idk i'm not omniscient.
This was a pragmatic and super helpful guide.
“Seeing enemy health and doing something that in no other way edits the game isn’t quality of life” perfect logic absolutely perfect. Given how stupid what you said in this video was I’m going to assume you didn’t pick up on my sarcasm so I’m adding this sentence.
Yesterday i poayed wolfgang for my first time and i love it i didn’t do a rush tho but i beat deerclops really really fast and got 22 perogies
Are you mocking him or being serious?
@@rodrigomateodelgadodelacru8154 good morning reddit.
Please explain, why is mob health mods bad? I don't get it, it's really really nice, its super satisfying to see the health bar go down and I don't see how it makes the game easier. Edit: Just played without mob health mods, holy crap its so different and combat is a lot scarier, never gonna use mob health mobs again(although Il still use Epic health bars because boss health bars are cool).
He can't. Basically he just want people to play the game the way he plays it. Just play for fun and don't worry about that shit.
Mob health could be considered cheating because, in my opinion, not seeing the health tick down keeps you on your toes, and makes the fights a bit more interesting given most mobs are easy to fight. The case could be made it also lets you know when to go for the extra hit to finish off an enemy like giants or tentacles too, but personally I just don't like knowing, I'd rather be excited to see whenever what I'm fighting goes down then know for sure. But that kind of boredom doesn't take until you have played a long time. It's why Rick says to play that way, it's how he plays because he's played for so long, and his guides are meant to teach you how to play well, but also how to play like him.
just no it's not cheating stop saying that
@@stevethestevuationstevenso9071 for me fighting is a nuisense to get some peace. So.. Heath bar for life
Dude the RuneScape music really gets me nostalgic man!
Learning to use the axe until i get a ham bat instead of using a spear all the autumn was one of the best things i learned from u

2:38 umm I think you did a forest fire
It's only a little fire bb.
Leaving the area will leave it unloaded thus stopping the fire, but you have to be careful if there are nearby spider dens or pig houses.
By leaving the area the fire will not spread.

this is good but the sanctimonious tone kinda dulled the overall effect
Would be fun to have a series of this but with different characters (wurt,wickerbottom, ect)
Well these tips go for like most of the good characters, with some exceptions.
To stop the argument between people who say farms are good or bad, build them only if you have the resources and time, don't depend on it for food, and only use it for dragon fruit pie if you have multiple crockpots.
I only make 1 (one) farm for getting corn for powder cake, everything else is irrelevant.
