DS: Hamlet supposed to be in DST
After yesrs of absence I returened to DS and was greatly suprised by the new DLC Hamlet. But after paleying it for houres and dying a couple dozen time I`ve got a tought that maybe I`m not supposed to play alone.

Let me explane: most of the valuble resources are hardly found in the wold. Like gold; in vanilla DS or the two other DLCs all you have to do is find rock biom or island and you`ll have enough gold nuggets, rocks and flints for whole game. But in Hamlet there is hardly any boulders in the world and the most sustainable way to get gold nuggets is trading in the PIg Town. And in order to trade in the town you need to get resources to trade(rocks, grass, flowers, etc) and those resources must be mined/harvested but in order to harvervest them you nedd tools but tools are made from those said resources. And so on...

And while you`re trying to manage you few resources you must not die to hunger and don`t forget about changin seasons with each posing a unique challenge.

And if you made it so far and bought your house or made a solid base and have all necessitys to face all chalenges that come across, guess what? You forgot to scout the rainforest and didn`t find the calendar that undos endless night that fallen upon your wolrd. Take it or leave it as they say.

In short it really feels like hamlet supposed to be played by at leat 2 players. One will take care of making the base and trading and the other one will explore the wolrd and look for ancient ruins.

Playing alone feels like sleeping on a stone slab. Yeah, can sleep on it but a bed is incomparably better.

It's a new take on the game that doesn't resemble DST or DS much at all.
