If he had spoken with a single passerby they probably would've told him his wall situation was retarded, and he therefore would've not died for free. Significantly improving without player-interact in general seems impossible. It's putting off the inevitable, instead of trying to change the potential outcome. Nematode behavior


This is what I respect. Snail is a titan. He is the Darwoth of Salem. He has killed a few of my characters and will continue to do so - IF I am lazy - leave holes in my village claims, holes in my walls, etc. etc. Or IF I do not take the time to actually talk to him in game. Offer him hats (which he loves). And they are proof you are actually supporting the game financially.

The dude is not a dick. He is just extremely passionate AND extremely knowledgeable of HH game's mechanics and how to succeed/grow the game.

A proper villain indeed.

I blew a siege machine in an empty corner of the cave where there was nothing to go for. This game should have a warning that it's not a farmer's simulator, it's a place where the snail plays "I'm the authority here", then people won't waste their time on this shit and on you morons.



he isn't some helpless victim, he had steel but no pali lmao


how is that even possible honestly


This thread is hilarious, how has it not been sent to Hel. But yeah my thoughts exactly the entire time reading it.

Do some research before putting up suggestions for featurs that already exist. The game is brutal, but fair. If you just invested an hour to make a palisade, you wouldve survived easely. The game has so many systems in place to offer you a way to survive even when a 5k str monster decides to raid you. It makes sense that he cant be stopped by newbies who havent invested as much time, yet the game still offers cheap and fast ways to delay him and plan escapes.

Again, its your own fault if you went for a brick wall, and just left it unfinished. My friends and I started playing a month ago, and we were clueless noobies, but we still invested time in researching our surroundings to make sure nobody around was playing, and set up a palisade before doing anything else. We got visited by the newbie killer, yet he couldnt do anything because we made use of the games defensive systems. So, even newbies, with some effort and research stand a chance. This is the equivalent of crying after you get killed in CS by a player thats way better then you and plays more, or any other game for that matter. Everyone plays the same game, with the same restrictions and rules, its on you if you lose. And even if you do, there are systems in play to allow you to continue enjoying the game.

People are responding like the game gave perfect advise on walls/locks and wasn't followed, it doesn't at all. The Wikipedia might, the forums if you search through all the vitriol might. This community is like "i've been playing hnh thru 10 years of involuntary celibacy and I always build my palisade in 5 minutes so if a new player cant figure it out straight away they can get fucked and chug bleach".
