I am not so sure with anything now. Currently is my character at the Airfield. It is there for 2 ingame weeks. I think I had 2 days of clear weather. I am in the mood to expect anything now.

It just struck me: "There are poisoned wolfs which are vicious because of lack of food". Does it mean that one have to pack many, many lunches when entering mine, because there will be no deer, no rabbit, no nothing to shoot and eat for the player?

I do have idea about the corrosivness and toxicity of these chemicals IRL. Just wonder if walking barefeet in the pool in the game will be insta-death or character will became poisoned. For sure I will not try it on my Astrid long term run. "Hey Will. Here is Astrid. Can you do something for me? I lost a thing in the mines, could you be dear honey and get it for me from the pits?" 😁

This just creates more questions. Scurvy: Where I will get vitamin C when all rosehip is consumed? And when it happens, wil I need more bandages? Is there any sauerkraut on the Island? Poisonous lake: What will happen when I take my shoes off and go barefeet. Poisonous wolf: Is it edible?

There is scientific or "scientific" TV show in our country. They tested it once. With ostrich egg. Microwave door did not stay attached to the frame.

Gone all gone except few women's t-shirts. While I was on the shop, please check the data validation on your quantity__input field. It allows to insert decimal instead of integer. Shopping cart rounds it with message that string is not allowed, so the purchase is not ruined with that, but still.

Speaking of... Yesterday I was melting butter in microwave. I put bowl in, closed door a stared at spoon stuck in the butter. Those things happens. Anyway about the store. We shall see whether hatchet is there and can be shipped to EU.

@Abenico I see there is some misunderstanding. Sorry english is not my language. What I ment was that working microwave in game would be nice. And if it was so, then putting ingame coffee mug during aurora into working microwave could be nice ingame event. And as for the IRL warning. I meant it for any random reader who could think that it would be great idea. Again sorry for crossed wires.

@Abenico Thats the point. If the microwave would be functional during aurora and character put a metal thing like the cup of coffee inside and turned it on... One could experience aurora inside. It would not be explosive as putting for example closed can. Although closed can should be pretty safe. I think the can metal would prevent the inside from heating while producing sparks. The airline food could be different when heated without any punctures. Maybe it could open the microwave and distribute the food quickly over whole cabin. That said. Please do not put metal cup or closed container with food into microwave and turn it on IRL. Even unbroken raw eggs can mess your kitchen pretty badly.

Yesss put a coffee mug into microwave during aurora to get outdoor aurora indoor. And severe burns possibly 😁

About the navigation. Recently I spent two days in cabin on the island. Two days blizzard on voyager... Third day was sunny morning. So I decided to go to cabin on the rock nearby. Simple trip. Once I got on the ice, boom, glimmerfog. It took whole day stumbling here and there to get to my destination.

I am currently at Forsaken Airfield and although I have encountered a large number of glimmerfog, I have never seen red sparks on the snow. Is it normal? Is it dangerous? I did not step on it, but better to know. It was like small red dot jumping here and there on the snow. Second thing is: Is the glimmerfog always comming from North? When I am at the airfield, I can see the fog rolling from the North, some time before. If I am near cabins on North side, there is absolutelly no warning and fog just drops down.

Well once I ruined 5 new fire hardened arrows to get one rabbit. The bow did not look like new after that either.

All the things mentioned you would do only in TLD like eating dog food, sleeping next to frozen body... I think you forget the time element. Imagine you are in wasteland. Not for one day, not for one month, but longer. I bet all of those things would became pretty doable IRL when you are freezing, hungry, thirsty and maybe injured. Maybe some of us would even take a steak from Bob (maybe not form Bob, because he is in the office, where the temperature can be high). Of course. If there is a choice, one will go for venison or rabbit.

I really like the walking meat supply in the CH. When you wake up, go out from the Quonset. Then you hear bear comming down from the hills. Wait near cars and here you are. You have a bear delivered right to your doorstep. It implies of course you down him right away. Once I got bear like this. Harvested it during the day. Next day I went out from the garage and voila: a moose. The game spoiled me that day.

I think you all forget the TLD constant in your equations. We all experienced it. It is like: Hmm the player has 80% of success chance. But he is low on health, freezing, thirsty, lets play him little and fail 5 times in a row. But of course I dont know if it is programed like that. It just feels this way.

I wonder what the result would be. Poisoning the character causing permanent damage? Or making all food on you not usable? And by not usable I mean even when you have cooking lvl 5. Or it could be some poisoning, which has to be treated some way. We will see (or not if it is not the case).

So if the artwork of the mine is true/accurate. Does it means "pack lot of sticks/wood before you enter, otherwise you will not start fire here"? There may be lot of cola there since it is mine and all caves and mines around contains coal. But you will not start fire with just coal.

It reminds me another moment. I was crouched on some clearing. Group of dear passed from left to right. All of them watched me all the time they passed by. They were just walking forward, heads right and fixed to me.

Haunted. I knew it. Whole Great Bear island is haunted. The DarkWalker shown us the true face of the island.

Here is my situation. I do have two hunting rifles laid down under the window near the stove in the lodge. The Curators rifle is on the shelve on the fireplace chimney. I woke up and went out. Whoa moose is out. So I stormed to the lodge, took the Curators rifle from the shelve and went hunting. All went well and I spent day harvesting the yummy moose meat and precious hide. I hauled the meat in front of the lodge. Then I took the hide and guts inside to cure. When I entered I noticed only one hunting rifle is laying on the ground. I scratched my head and went to the fireplace to hang my Curators rifle on the shelve. The second hunting rifle is there. I swear I did not touched those two hunting rifles for weeks since these are empty and Curators is loaded, ready for hunt. Have anyone else experienced something like this?

I dont think so. On my current run I bagged few bears with revolver. Placed my character on place where bear could not get me, near its path. Then one shot and wait few hours on the spot.

And now way back. If you are overencumbered, it can be funny or really funny. I do remember my first visit there too. I gathered everything and thought. Hmm ropes down are annoying. My first way down cost me some sprains, clothes damage and some health. But I made it. In fact I dont recall going down via ropes at all.

Horror? No. Sometimes tense an stressing? Yes. The only horror part was the nightwalker event. Otherwise it is calm game with occasional tense, scary moments, when weather suddenly changes or bear is behind corner in the fog.

Sorry to hear that. Beeing occasional player, I have not achieved 500 day goal as well. Several deaths (me beeing stupid usualy) and then big update happened and old save 400+ days is not usable. So the goal is still on horizon. And thats the silver lining for me.
