I don't like horror games, and the "corruption spread" idea was something I hated about the Thaumcraft mod for Minecraft. Vintage Story is an exception to the horror rule, since it doesn't really focus on gore and keeps most of the creepiness in the background.

I think you are saved by the fact that Tyron doesn't like horror games either.

Thorfinn Posted May 7 Report Posted May 7 Didn't notice it. Sorry. An hour 16. I'll watch it this evening and get back to you.
Thorfinn Posted May 8 Report Posted May 8 Wow! You are really good at this game, @Maelstrom! I'll probably try something like this, but my favorite gaming computer (not my best, but my favorite) can't run that many mods. I doubt I will play it more than once. Maybe twice. For me, combat is just a means to an end. If I enjoyed it, I'd probably play with CO, or, more likely, an a game specifically about combat, like Exanima or one of the CoD or Fallouts or Counterstrike or Rainbow Six Siege or similar. VS fills the niche that I used to fill with Terraria and/or Dwarf Fortress. I was trying to figure out how I would deal with the advancing of the corruption, and he revealed what is probably the answer towards the end -- a butch drop from a particular structure in Better Ruins. I guess I'll have to include BR, but have to admit that I'm not thrilled with a one-trick pony, that you need to find a specific ruin in a specific mod.
Maelstrom Posted May 8 Author Report Posted May 8 I thought you'd like the challenge of a forced nomadic lifestyle. I'm sure you could monkey with the devastation mod settings to fit your liking. PS - I ain't nearly that good. I'm much more the homesteader. I like to get my workshop up before first winter so I can mine and forge waiting for the spring planting.
Thorfinn Posted May 8 Report Posted May 8 Oh, that wasn't your channel? I doubt I would try the standard progression, like he did. I would do the nomad thing -- raiding cracked vessels and ruins, and buying up stuff like bronze picks, gambeson and linen as they became available. I would first see how the spread works in unloaded chunks. Run a day east from the last storm, look for some landmark, build a small farm, then double back southwest for at least a couple days. If it follows you, rather than just spreads, maybe I could get a crop in. I've done nomadic before, but nothing forced. Just "roleplay". There's a latitude starting about the middle of the redwoods where it's very easy to find food and you never have to worry too much about getting cold. Just do your trick of carrying a pot and a bowl. If you do get cold, make a quick check of some nearby cave to see if you can find easy aged crates to trade and you are right as rain. 1
