New player here! I need direction.

Post by ArgentRhapsody »

I almost died to a badger and then to a boar. my hard health is at like 10 and I'm huddled around a fire trying to recover. I'm completely lost in this game and have no clue where to go or what I should be doing at this early stage in the game, lol.

I'm guessing I should join a village or something? Everyone seems to think that being a hermit is a bad idea.

I was an hermit and it was fun, just you can not run for quality (but who cares? :P )

try to read this
viewtopic.php?f=42&t=51565

and in particular this
viewtopic.php?f=42&t=40714

it's a bit outdated but still good for a beginner

Up to you. Having a good village to teach you makes things easier. Being a hermit is hard mode.
Opinions expressed in this statement are the authors alone and in no way reflect on the game development values of the actual developers.

But if you're the type who sees losing as fun or a challenge or both, hermitting hard mode can be fun as hell.
