The whole game is golden and has been a barrage of favourite moments so far. I'd be hard-pressed to name just a few favourite moments. I just passed the nightmare sequence in the wrecked train. One of the early Alpha versions had the pigs sometimes follow the player all the way to their hideout, but their slow movement speed would lead to the player getting a huge head start and therefore the attack of the pigs would usually come as a surprise, as you would have already been doing other shit for the better part of a day and hanging out at the stove or workbench when these fuckers would stampede right inside and start nibbling on your toes.
The main challenge with fighting the Sow is that, as Nirvash found the hard way, every pig becomes hostile. I might be getting some details wrong but it shouldn't be too hard to figure out.

Repair the cables, go inside the house (villager inside that tells you to fuck off but you can kill him), then turn on the generator and activate the lever to the max charge. Ok, here is the thinking man's solution: buy cables, explore around the perimeter of the pig shed until you find a house surrounded by decapitated pig heads, with torn cables running on the ground from it to the shed. Because the game has become completely uncomfortable to play, to the point where I feel anxious at even thinking about starting it up again. If I said that I "couldn't wait" to see what Chapter 2 has in store, I'd be lying. Old Woods, however, are so hostile that they are actively forcing you out with the sheer onslaught and terror of its inhabitants that you simply won't last two nights there unless you are competent at survival, defense, and resource management - basically every major part of the game. Silent Forest is challenging and will fuck you if you don't get your survival skills and hideout defense strategies down, but is generous enough with resources that you don't feel too much pressure in staying there. Dry Meadow is the playground for beginners where it is very hard to properly fuck up, but it teaches you basic survival skills and prepares you for what comes next. Looking back at Chapter 1, the difficulty curve is actually quite pleasant. The result is very disorienting and eerie, exactly how one would feel after having suffered partial memory loss I would assume. Every time I find a new piece of the puzzle, a part of me breaks and once again nothing makes sense.Īlso, goddamn, this game communicates that the character has a partial memory of being in certain places incredibly well: the fog of war shows you the way a certain location looked like in the character's past. Fear and exhilaration and relief and fear again. The feelings brought on by the exodus were unbelievable. If you have a good defensive setup and a surplus of molotovs, you don't really have to engage in melee combat in most circumstances. If you are just defending your hideout, however, molotovs are your friends. From that point on you can try to land a combo or run the fuck away, preferably the latter. If you have the timings of your own attacks down, you can try hitting them before just before they charge into you, but a safer way to deal with them is to turn your character to the side and backstep away from their charge, so that ideally you end up to their side or behind them. Then there are enemies that like to charge, like big dogs and chompers. So you are meant to bait a flurry out of them, then backstep out of its reach, then quickly close distance and attack, then either commit fully and stagger them to death or back away and rinse&repeat. Consider stick savages: their 3-attack flurry is very quick and has good reach, but has about a second or two of windup and recovery. Besides managing your stamina, it is important to memorize timings and ranges of attacks, as well as enemy attack patterns.
Otherwise stamina management wouldn't really make sense. The combat was inspired by dark souls, hence the same stamina bar being used for both running and fighting. You can control the direction of the backstep by turning your character to face the direction opposite of the one you want dodge to. You've also got a backstep which is bound to alt by default. You can also do a 2-hit combo by doing a regular attack immediately followed by an alt, which is great for overwhelming enemies, especially if you've a high damage weapon. Weapons like staves and shovels produce a thrust with fantastic reach, so the alternate attack is more useful than the primary attack for those weapons.
