Day Two

[beatbox2sleep]

By golly, the expansiveness of the base is almost overwhelming. I'm sticking at the starting area in the castle, I mean obviously that's where you're supposed to build your base. It took me a while to get everything up and down the broken castle but I had plans bigger than the game was allowing me at that moment.

Today, my goal is to establish a stable at one of the lower levels of my broken castle. I realize now the only way to do that is to have a Pal... pod? at each "area" I want. I'm currently working on an outpost as I'll need to figure out how to get more base capacity.

It was surprising how strong some of the Pals are. This'll be interesting. I don't even have time for anything before i leave home today because it takes so much thinking to figure out what I want to do. Gotta wait 'til tonight.

Next base I'm building will be in a massive empty grassland. The more complicated parts of the map lead to pathfinding issues for the Pals so far, even though they don't seem to help much against the pathfinding of raiders.

lol they really need to fix the pathfinding as you call it. My Pals get stuck trying to pick stuff up, it's ridiculous.

A word on the Pals, though - I'm going to refuse for as long as I can from attacking them and see how far I can get without violence. I always wanted to make a game within which if you chose a path refusing to fight with violence that you could end up finishing the game in a completely different way.

I'm just going to build giant look-out points like Jurassic Park.

Enable raids for more immersive experience.

My idea worked perfectly. My base being a bit higher level simply extends its perimeter exactly to where I wanted it. I'll be building a stable exactly where I wanted it. Hopefully there are some horse Pals out there somewhere.

I also discovered the secret to the castle starting area I began at. There is a tower above the grand gallery. I'm planning out putting a roof up where the giant hole is. I just gotta map out exactly where to place the grid.

From the top, I can see everything where I was beginning to expand out. Someone could've been watching me the entire time in secret. I built a little sleeping pod up there. So cozy.
