The Forest Looks Utterly Terrifying

I don't know if you can pay me to play this with an Oculus Rift.

It's like the Don't Starve people and the Miasmata people teamed up to make sure that Patrick never sleeps again.

Can't wait!

Hell no. I don't think I could watch someone play that let alone immerse myself in it.

Alright, so... this is in Alpha now, I guess? So maybe it'll be finished by the time the Extra Life event rolls around next year?

I'm just saying, because I would probably donate a decent amount of dollars to get Patrick to stream this with his Oculus for a few hours during the Extra Life 'cast.

Just saying, Scoops.

Where can we donate to pay @patrickklepek to play this on a Rift? I don't see the button!

C'mon, Patrick. It's only a lumberjack simulator :D

Anyone else notice when he goes to bash in that one dudes head, his own shadow didn't have a head. Not sure if just a bug, or that you are some sort of monster.

In concept this looks like what I figured Minecraft would become so many years ago. But rather then go the scary open world build-to-survive direction, they went the not very scary open world sandbox build-for-fun direction.

This looks waaay too scary for me to play. When they showed him building the cabin stuff I was like.. Omg is actual scary shit going to come at night? I'd just curl up in the corner of my cabin and sit there terrified.

Yea. I'm sorry Patrick, I care for you buuuuut... you need to play this haha. And not some little sample either. Full on play, explore, build, and survive.

Except for a well placed jump scare in Outlast a few days ago, horror games do not frighten me. Movies do to the extreme (and I will honestly run away and not watch them), but games I have a space on. Many times though I really relish the atmosphere, so something like this I may be interested in.

And this looks like a trip!

Yeah, looks awesome! But you probably won't see me running around that hellish forest anytime soon, considering I freaked out a few hours into Clive Barkers Undying and never looked back.

This game looks awesome. It's like someone decided to make a hyper realistic version of Minecraft's survival mode.

@2headedninja: Yeah, that's what I was thinking. Only someone who hasn't played either games would make that comparison.

I will pay good money to not play this game.

And by that I mean: for someone else to play it for me.

Patrick?

Dope, i hope there's a whole decent into madness plot thread, I also hope I'm playing the bad guy who's lost his mind (i guess the severed limbs do strongly suggest that.

I want to get the game just to chop down log and build stuff out of it. I hope there's a lot of options for that. Like building a fort to defend your cabin from those crazy guys, maybe even build a watchtower!

I'm sure horror fans must be eating all this stuff up, but as someone in which horror does very little, I keep getting bummed out by all these beautiful worlds, and then it's just "nope, here kill a bunch of awful things" :(

Okay if this has really fun melee combat, I'll play it.

If it's heavy on setting bear traps, no.

I still don't understand how a game being developed by such a small team can have such good looking visuals. Has it been confirmed that this is actual in-engine video? I know it says something about it on the video watermark but after Colonial Marines... Man I just can't put much stock in those anymore.

Brad didn't think he could handle a 25 hour livestream. But that turned out jolly. I'm sure taking this challenge on will be, too.

Don't let Brad beat you, Patrick.
