That is a good observation and a great point! I didn't really think about this since I was just chasing polaroid locations for the past 6 hours, and figured that this polaroid followed the same trend. This is likely just a Memento left behind by the Foreman before they likely wandered off and died someone on Great Bear. Also, looking at the picture more, it looks more like they are in front of one of the connectors (or chutes?) between buildings at the factory in ZOC, the same ones you can use to travel between the buildings. Same time, there's a distinct lack of important detail and landmarks to point too its exact location, and I don't think any location, even within the mines, is exactly a single Tone of Greenish Grey, like the photo, making me think it's likely not a real place at all. Thank you all for looking into this though, I really appreciate the help. Even if the Polaroid leads to nowhere, I'm satisfied with where the DLC storyline ends.

Would it be easier to use the Travois to transport books? Could put one in the Travois and one in your inventory, so you don't need to use the Place Item Method to transport a second one.

I am rapidly approaching your position with a travois... Jokes aside, this is awesome! I always love collecting things in TLD, and seeing all of the books together and organized like that brings me joy! I'm surprised how little there were of "The Frozen Angler" books, especially with how prevalent Ice Fishing seems to be on Great Bear. Maybe the fish stole them... Honestly never properly acknowledged how many book variants there are. Once in a while I go "hey that book has a hatchet on the cover, cool" and then go off on my way. I appreciate Hinterland adding little details and variants to such a commonly burnt item, really helps keep the world feeling alive and fresh! These posts are making my inner hoarder want to go out there and start collecting things... though by December there are going to be a TON more things to collect with part 6, so I'm sure collectors are going to be really busy come then.

I still remember when Hinterland was constantly telling us that there was a Shortcut you could find, or possibly unlock, and how the forum chased that for many many months, only to find nothing. Makes me think if there was one during a dev build of the region, but they removed it, or forgot to properly add it to the game.

I'm never one to want your releases to be rushed, whether it's a dev log, or an update, I always trust that you'll release it when your believe it is due and ready. I'll gladly wait patently if it means that everything you post is made with care and doesn't put any strain on any of the great people in Hinterland. It's honestly the reason why I really enjoy following the development of the game so much, and consider The Long Dark my Favorite game, because not only is it a really good game, but I appreciate the care that's been given to ensure that Hinterland themselves doesn't get stress or crunched during the game's development. All I wish is for other game companies to ensure the wellbeing of their developers over the needs to push for release dates and holidays, and not constantly place people under insane crunch times Your company proves that crunch isn't needed to make fantastic games and create great communities, and I will always be thankful for that.

I've been checking at least every hour, I'm just so excited! I honestly can't wait for what they have in store!

Maybe it'd have a similar mechanic to Rock Caches, where you can only have a set few per region, or maybe only one. I imagine the weight of one would require the Travois to even move, I imagine it'd be too heavy to carry without one, which could already limit moving them from region to region.
-
I really like this idea! Though I wonder if it could be a bit powerful carrying around a fire barrel in lets say the Travois (because I assume it'll be very heavy) and just placing it down for a wind proof fire wherever you want in a region. I'd check every single barrel if there was a chance for Maple Syrup to be in some of them 😆

I've been wondering the same thing, thanks for clearing it up @Veskaida! I just kind of have Cabin Fever deducing food lying around, not knowing when to use it, so thanks!
-
Honestly didn't ever think of that, especially since I have a ton of rabbit pelts lying around since I usually have good clothing already on Stalker, and rabbits are extremely easy to both kill and snare. Plus each rabbit equals one repair for the gloves, so that sounds like a great way to level up the skill on weeks where I just chill at base, and don't want to waste cloth. Combine it with Manic's idea of just camping in a blizzard next to a windproof fire, have a ton of rabbit hide and guts, and grind it away. Might go well with making water too.

Yes, your character will load the lowest condition arrow. If you are picking up an arrow that you know is going to be lower condition than the one currently loaded, you can click on the item, have its menu appear, wait for your character to lower your bow, then once you pick it fully up, your character will load that arrow if you don't want to damage a fresh one. Also note, your character will quick equip the highest condition survival bow when pressing 3 or using the radial menu, so if you have two on you, and want to use the lower condition one, you'll have to pick it out manually from your inventory.

"Dev Diary Soon" *Me for the past few days* "Oop, gotta check the forums, it's been 20 seconds." 👀

I only got to participate in 2 (technically 3 but idk if Darkwalker counts as it's official) seasonal events before they went down, so I really miss them. Especially the unique items and weather. I'd love for them to at least add more custom settings to possibly recreate the events better, as eternal night is cool, but there's no option for endless weather, or colder indoor temps. I made a Wishlist request a while ago to let us make Pumpkin pie in the base game as a cook-able food, possibly using canned pumpkin or something, so that the food item isn't eventually lost to time. Either way, I too miss the events, and hope they at least send TLD off with one more, when the DLC and Episode 5 is done.

I'd be angry too if my Bed kept fighting back 😄
