  1. On an interloper run I found an empty can. Does not sound like much but that gave me an early game boost in tea production.
  2. Heading into the cavern from Forlorn to Bleak I stumbled upon this cute little fellow. This is right before it jumped at me. Run away! Might have soiled my armour.
  3. Consider the situation of breaking down a 0.3 kg torch to get a 0.15 kg stick which provides four minutes of fuel compared to eight minutes fuel. The stick is less mass than the torch but those extra two minutes to break down equates into an extra four minutes of fuel. Long Dark Wizardry!
  4. The seismic activity on Timberwolf Mountain has caused havoc on my beloved goat trails. Secluded Shelf was reclaimed recently. Today the Summit belongs to the goats. Climb Ev'ry Mountain Hallelujah!

    Big Reishi

    Maybe some of those filthy hippies who took over Pleasant Valley Rural Corner learned to grow big reishi mushrooms.
  6. Playing from the time capsule I experienced this type of event. Walking the high ground above Unnamed pond I saw a deer run past. My immediate thought was this is odd, never seen deer in this high ground. Then a wolf passed by and it became clear that this deer had been chased. Took me completely off guard and I love this type of chaotic chase. Bring back freak chase scenes.
  7. Four hour of blizzard and this wolf was walking around outside the fishing village in Coastal Highway. Started the day by taking a shot at a deer. Made the hit, increased archery level, quartered the carcass. A wolf come over when it smelled lunch. Dropped the meat bag and guts and backed off. The wolf started heading towards the stuff so I try the shot and miss. The wolf runs off. Brought a bag of meat into the hut and carved off a steak. While the steak cooked I returned to the remaining meat bags and brought that near to the fishing hut. Needing firewood I continued towards the fish camp when growling bear appears. So I double back. Now wolf spots me and starts tagging along. There are deer still present on the ice and I walk towards them. Wolf decides to bite a deer. So being the smart loper I notch an arrow while wolf enjoys his last meal. Did the wind take my arrow? How do I miss these easy shots? The day became snowy. The second deer was quartered. Then a blizzard started to howl and I returned to the fishing hut to harvest the meat bag and cook another steak. The other bags of meat were within eyesight so I ventured into the blizzard to retrieve them. Grab four guts and four meat bags then from out of the blizzard a bark a growl then I could see wolf come at me. Dropped all of it then ducked inside a fishing hut to take refuge. The wolf did not bother me so I continued with the bag of meat and cook a few more steaks. Harvesting 1 kg meat at a time and then dropping it to the floor was the cautious method I employ. Thought to grab the other meat bags and bring them into the hut. This time after carving off 1 kg of meat I did not drop the steaks and once again this trooper starts barking growling and coming at me. To be honest I was surprised. The blizzard is raging for a couple hours and this wolf is not giving up. Bring out a rock to scare it off. I continued butchering cautiously with out any more incidents. The images were taken after butchering for an hour. To my knowledge walking around in a blizzard was safe with no critters loitering around. Can you spot the Wolf? This image is hard to see so here it is zoomed in.
  8. Arrived into BI from the Ravine. The Timber wolf by the tower ran away from me. Made the hike over to the washout trailers where Bullwinkle went down in three arrow hits. Off to the cannery where I spot about four timbers. Threw a few rocks and sneaked into the trailer. Climbed the rope and now every time I come close to a timber wolf they run off. My first experience on interloper with timber wolves was kind of bland. To answer the question why would I go to BI in loper: Whale Watching Why is this relevant? The dev diary back in August 2018 episode three announcement and this was the concept art. Maybe these beasts are lurking beneath the ice. Certainly would make beach combing interesting. Timberwolves might not be ridiculous on interloper but Orca would.
  9. I AM GOAT On my way up to the plane and noticed that the tremors have caused havoc on our beloved goat trails. The documented route is now blocked. Good thing my back up trail was not affected. Tonight Secluded Shelf still belongs to the goats.
  10. Not sure about all the grape flavours. Any chance this was wine country? Ribena is made from the finest blackberry's lovingly picked at the optimal moment of ripeness. They do resemble a bunch of grapes, as if picked by giants.
  11. Such the celebrity Germany is so cool, TV shows are interesting and lawn darts are legal.
  12. Why have one when you can have a pair.
  13. Make sure you grab a few Ribena. I hear that in the U.K. they changed the recipe. Still sweet nectar in my part of Canada.
  14. What I noticed right from the start of the EP update was the sound level increase of foot falls based on inventory. Battery was the first thing I went for to place into inventory. Then I grabbed another and the sound of the foot falls went noticeably louder. Do not try and grab more than three otherwise you are stopped in your tracks.
  15. Those aren't regular crates they are weighted companion crates. Do you not see the heart? The pallets not being able to smash seem like a bug. Those skids are just taken up space.
  16. At first that exit sign was suspicious for me. Then I realized it is Carter and Raphael is commenting on the new aurora effects.
  17. Planning on heading out to BI with a new start loper. Right now he is in DP and all geared up. As for cannery access I might have to wait a few days for an aurora. Seems camping at the keypad would be the most optimal.
  18. Happy New Year! ; Why is one sardine grinning broadly and the other has sad face? Also gold fins on the smiley.
  19. This seems correct. Last week I dropped my fonts and today I noticed "F" was missing. You might be on to something. Now what does ODT have to to with anything? After a quick search the acronym Or Die Trying might be a match. I noticed what looks like waves of water on the bottom part of the text. This fits. There are still some mysteries remaining. ORPGGs is possible but makes little sense. YOP ??? With both arts in frame interpret as the future is ocean. The highlight effect on the valve threads could indicate tick marks. Four and four. This valve still bugs me. This one too. Do these controls the pipe. What could be in these tanks? My thoughts are some sort of fuel. Do these controls need to thaw out? Maybe make a fire close to them. Tried to fit the landscape from the concept art. This boat has an upper deck unlike the Harbinger. The future ocean is being foreshadowed. The sardine is the Keymaster. The bear is the Gatekeeper. Line the coast with tins of sardines, lure bear down to the cannery and bait the orcas. If I don not return then I am having a conversation with Jonah.
  20. Here I have captured the graffiti: KA AK Y Bear LaME This appears in three locations. It shares with KAYAK. MAR The blue part of the letters looks like water. DOT Is that really an "O"? KOP Orca This appears in two locations. EADING Easing is not a word I am familiar with or can find using google. Maybe that is slang. DAPGGs From different angles and still is difficult to read. Sardine Sardine with key The key is used to open the tin of sardines. Found on the bottom part of the tin. Various graffiti
  21. That is very interesting. The other piece of graffiti I found of interest was this: Maybe just lure an orca or two near the fishing trawler.
