    I’m female so I generally prefer playing the game as a female. It feels more like it’s me in the wilderness, not my character.

    Same here, but the other gender around.

    I'd like to replace the male voice with my own rants to get a better immersion :) but the files are encoded 😪

  2. Salut Ka !

    Bienvenue au forum 😉

    Les loups, on apprend à les éviter tant qu'on est pas suffisamment protégé. Il faut rester attentif, ne pas aller dans la direction des hurlements.

    En cas  de rencontre, on peut maintenir la distance en alternant marche et course jusqu'à les semer ou atteindre un refuge.

    @JMK

    I'd be sad too having to process over 75 Kilos of meat... I was planning on sleeping in that day.

    Lol, I won't process it.This happened on  26th day interloping the 25 days pacifist success award.

     But  I could sure open a burger shop right at Trapper's cabin 🤣

    Now I started to interlope the 25 day survival with only plants and animals, and it's a rabbit's massacre !

  4. I agree there should have been enough Syrup to make it in one run. I visited every region but HRV and had to stat more games which doesn't mak much sense.

    Winter's Embrace (or future events) would benefit from having a coherent difficulty preset (Voyageur, Stalker, Interloper) to entertain a wider range of players.

    Although 4DON forced me to move during nights and l learned how to deal with it, which is a benefit beyond a badge 😉

    and i saw that interloper is about fighting the world and the lack of resources more than wildlife itself,

    Listen to wolves and change your course accordingly. Most maps have alternative routes to get you through (though some have some diificult choke points, that is where you might want to use that precious flare)

    In order to avoid wolves, you can also travel into the blizzard with a couple hot drinks, but you'd better know your map 😉

    Once you get a bow, things will change and you will become the hunter :)

  6. I am confused. Frostbite doesn't occur unless your head or hands are not covered. Where you covered ?

    Was this playing Winter's embrace ?

    @stratvox is right, frostbite rely on temperature, not "feels like" with your clothes.

    When I get it, I'm like 10-15 minutes in, it's fast, but you still have the risk warning.

     

  7. The Wolf Blanquette :

    • 1 Kg Wolf meat
    • 6 Cattails
    • 1 Crushed Birch bark
    • 10 Ml of fish oil
    • 2 Cup of Rosehip tea
    • 1 Oz Salty crakers

    Cover the meat with water, bring to a simmer. Rince the meat with cold water.

    Heat the pot, return the meat into it with the oil, the cattails, the crushed birch bark and the crakers.

    Cook on high heat while steering for 5 minutes

    Cover partially with water and the 2 cup of Rosehip Tea, simmer over moderate heat until the meat is very tender, about 1 hour 30 minutes.

    Tip: Let it one full day and heat gently before serving.

     

     

     

  8. Yes. When you want to keep drinks hot while crafting, fishing or sleeping, that's the way to go.

    I usually heat 2 cups before I go into a cold trip, I drink the first as I leave then the second about 10 minutes before the first one warming effect goes off.

    You can secure 1h40 walking in harsh conditions that way 😉

    It helped me walk out of the Muskeg after a forging session more than once.

    Also, I always have at least one cup of coffee, even cold, it will save you from collapse from fatigue should your trip turn bad.

  9. Nice to report, your videos are very explicit 👍

    I a not worried by exploits though. Since this is not a multigamer game, you only ruin your own game by using them.

    There is room for wildlife behavior for sure, yet, algorithms have their limits and there's always a way to derail them.

    At some point, whether you go for a physical model FPS fight style, or you rely upon probabilty a wolf will catch you when close enough. My guess is that the lack of ability for the wolf to catch you should be adressed with probability.
