if you die in deepwoken you die in real life

42

So you are making sure they play the game in a way that makes it less enjoyable so that they don’t like it and share your opinion got it

43

It’s telling me to build a ship, but I did.

Throwback to:

All you have to do is stop assuming something bad.

45

If you have friends that play deepwoken, get on with them and have them show you the ropes.
If you don’t, have guides and be prepared to die infinitely.

Frankly speaking your advice is horrible and deepwoken without a guide is a form of advanced torture.

why did they make this otherwise-masterpiece have the shitty permadeath mechanics.

48

Alright, currently figuring out what I can easily eat.
Conclusion: Avoid the brown mushrooms, devour the green ones. The water is fine despite the color.

49

Because 1. This is a spiritual successor to rogue lineage so it’s kind of required and 2. The entire atmosphere of the game wouldn’t work otherwise

50

Why can I press T to spit?

51

Sequels are meant to evolve upon their predecessor’s mechanics and remove critical design flaws to better the game.

Yes it would???
Why wouldn’t it?

I’d actually make the exact opposite argument:
The atmosphere of the game doesn’t work because I’m too focused on “oh shit I’m about to lose my file if I fuck up”.
I could literally not name a less immersive mindset.

52

The entirety of the depths is built around the permadeath system, name a single aspect of it that would work without it

Ok but the “critical design flaw” is literally the games main feature

Imagine if dark souls removed hollowing or something

53

You’re not ready for the streets

54

stocksounds just trying to find out how to play while these two argue

Right, again, the game told me to build a boat, and when I built one, it still says the same thing, is that right?

56

Yeah I don’t think the forum filled with people ready at all times to complain about deepwoken was the best start to playing deepwoken

57

you probably need to spawn it too, if that doesn’t work then just open your map and sail to the big landmass in the middle

58

Yeah the “set sail” quest has been glitched since it was added lol open your map and sail to the big greyed out island

59

All of it.
The ENTIRE depths would work without permadeath.
What are you talking about?

Entering the depths, leaving the depths, and everything within, all 100% functional.

This, my friend, is a delusion, you have been gaslit by the deepwoken community.
Much like what you said in the same message.

Tell me, in detail, what game mechanics would actually cease to function without permadeath and why.
You will find very few answers and none of them will be important lol.

Permadeath is not a core mechanic to deepwoken, they just lobbed it in and said it was.

Got it.
