Lately, I've been rationalizing it as "I don't want to die, I want to WANT to live."

Still figuring out how to make it happen, but at least now I've got a catchy slogan for it

He would? Huh. Guess he got better

Life comes at you fast.

I'd say to take it slow with combat, don't rush in and get smacked too much. Getting hurt too bad in one fight can lower your max HP and have serious repercussions for the next one. Try to make sure you'll be able to make it back to a safe area, and learn when it's time to pull out and do that.

Also, staying supplied when you head out SHOULD seem obvious, but it's important enough that it still needs to be emphasized. Stay stocked.

That said, unless you're playing on Hardcore or whatever, there's no chance of permadeath or a game-ending moment. Don't be afraid to go out and explore the map and get your ass beat. Some of the most fun parts of my run were being fucked up beyond belief and going "how the hell am I gonna make it back?"

Bring a friend if you can. On PC, you can mod it so you can play with more than one other person. My run was myself and two others. I doubt I would've made it to the end of the story otherwise. :P

If Outward taught me anything, it's that everything in the outside world will kill you and it's best to just stay home.

Looking forward to the sequel~

The one guy just walks around all day carrying a big-ass rock everywhere he goes? I think he could probably take the other two in a fight, then

Sheesh, should've known better than to try and make a joke around here, I guess. I appreciated it, at least. I've got a soft spot for suddenly making really dire, grim statements in otherwise totally pedestrian conversations

It genuinely boggles that so many people would take "the evil night-horrors" as an actual argument for this

Yeah, man. That oughta change their mind.

Just under 'cock-up', I guess

Wouldn't mind being able to call someone who's being a jackass a 'plonker', but I think in an American accent it would sound like some kind of obscure slur

I've heard it referred to as demisexual/demiromantic, and also you'd be bi/pan.

But, y'know, that's just the label that helps you quickly explain your situation without needing to overclarify. No matter what, you're just you.
