Karma replied to I beat the game in 54 days. Random seed, permadeath, no sleep, no cheese, no exploits, only PAIN March 20, 2022 @ 2:02:08 pm PDT
and what did you learn, oh sleepless one
I slept in real life... i just didn't sleep or even build a bed in the game.
Now what did I learn? Quite a bit... For example:
Troll armor is as good if not better than bronze and is much more fun and quick to make/upgrade.
If I am careful, I can skip building iron gear altogether and save all that iron ore for padded gear, saving me even more time.
I also had an over-abundance of food. I should just focus on 3 kinds, mass produce them, and when I think I'll have enough for the rest of the game, leave it be.
I should pick one weapon type and focus on it from start to finish. This run, I trained daggers, spears, maces, swords and polearms. A lot of that training went to waste when I switched weapon types.
I bet my next run will be under 45 days.
I could never play the game this way (or any game for that matter).
However, I love to see the different types of playthroughs that players try and the different strategies that come out of them.
So ty for sharing!
