THE LIST - docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1_K3ziSxT9zcUUGCddS… The Forest on Steam - store.steampowered.com/app/242760/The_Forest/ I want the cannibals to LEAVE.

“What’s the point of [self-hurting fire rock]?” Easy: for nonverbally telling the natives that you are a level of crazy that they are absolutely unprepared to deal with.

Single player: Man vs. Wild multiplayer: British Colonial Simulator

This game is scary until one gets 8 homies and starts a bone cult.
-
10:57 The fact that cannibal actually looked at the bomb then back at you as if "What the hell?" before exploding is genuine comedy gold.

I played this game with a friend who played it in VR. They didn't have a microphone so they could only communicate in gestures. However, they could swing the axe as fast as they could swing their arms, so it was sort of like playing with a mute Hercules that would fell entire swathes of woodland in minutes and then come running back to camp with about ten of the locals chasing them.

"...how Smash players practice the wrong kind of grooming." JESUS CHRIST
-
"what a trial over a minor thing. I need to stop thinking of smash Bros." Holy fuck it took a few watches to catch that
-
A nice detail is all the sharks on the beaches - sharks have electroreceptive organs in their snouts that they use for navigation so if an EMP goes off it could cause them to beach themselves.
-
6:42 clarifying what Mandalore means: booze doesn't actually warm your body; alcohol relaxes your capillaries so more blood flows to your skin, so you feel warmer. But what's happening is that you're losing heat faster.

"I don't want to be angry anymore. I just want this to be over" -Every Berserk fan

I played this with a friend of mine, he went the good path, armor from animal skins, sticking with found weapons. I on the other hand immediately went into wearing monster hide, eating people and using a skull on a stick. My goal was to run the entire thing with 0% sanity, we eventually role played it as he was a figment of my imagination that manifested after my brain snapped. Good times.
-
I remember my first time playing, I set up my base at the beach right in front of the plane crash site. A couple of days in, I look at one of the cliffs and I see a small group of cannibals just watching me from afar. That's when I realized how great/scary the AI was. I could have never looked up at that specific cliff and saw them, but they would have seen me. Makes me think how many times I haven't seen them.
-
Thanks for voting for me to be stranded on an island hunted by cannibals.
-
Days survived: 35 Currently feeling: GOOD Sanity: 2% Can't ask for a more accurate picture.
-
"they know if the singing stops, the pulses do too" sseth got to the surface I see
-
Funnily enough this is one of those games that becomes a comedy in VR, ESPECIALLY in multiplayer. The main reason for this is that damage... Isn't based on momentum. Which means you can just wibble your way through cannibals having a big laugh.

Single Player: one badass surviving in a forest full of cannibals Multiplayer: American Colonist Simulator

Was not expecting the Berserk 97 soundtrack, but it was a nice surprise.
