Hi !

What much can I say except that I'm in love with this game ?

I'm really not the competitive type and consequently not really a big fan of most multiplayer situation.

Don't Starve Together is the best when it comes to play with your friends and try to resist and fight together against common foes and that is a really pleasant feeling for me.

Plus, from gameplay mechanics to music and art, everything in this game make the universe a cohersive whole with a nice Burton-esque feel. I mean, you can make flowers by planting butterfly, rabbit become evils bearded monsters when you're insane and some menacing tree with a screaming face is nicely named "Totally Normal Tree".

Finally, it's a pleasure to discover try after try what you can possibly do to improve this or that situation ... and there is a lot to try !

Anyway, thanks for reading this,

Have a nice day,

Leliot.

Hi !

I put a red thumb here not to "bash" the game (who have a lot of good reviews) but to make a warning visible for players that might be a little like me.

I've beat the game once (plus the nice free DLC that as a better "ending feel" IMO compared to the last level) and I enjoyed it for the most part ... but I might not replay it for success or whatever.

I mean, this game is really fun to be played with friends ... yes ... WITH FRIENDS !

The goofiness of the character is real fun when you're messing with you're friends and trying to put them of map ...

... but this is also a puzzle game and it can be a real pain when you're alone and making like 40 attempt to put a damn log under a damn rock !

To say it in another way, it can be really frustrating IMO when you need 30 seconds to understand what to do but need 30 minutes to manage to do it !

I know it come a lot from myself. I'm more confortable with understanding puzzles that doing agility tricks (it always bugged me) !
But I really wanna warn you about this ... in case you got the same kind of "skills" as I do (or more like an absence of skills I might say >.<).

Then, a personnal list of pros and cons :

Pros :

• Fun with friends.
  
• Beautiful most of the time.
  
• Lot of options for personalised character.
  
• Nice free DLC level.

Cons :

• Might be really frustrating on you're own (for reason said before).
  
• Some assets have an "unfinished" feel IMO.

Lot of people seems to think this game might reach a whole new level with customs maps and other workshop possibilties, I can't argue with that, please make it happen !

Tanks for reading,
Leliot.
