Characters Of 'Don't Starve' Part 1

My favorite game to play!

'Don't Starve'

In This Article:

One of my favorite indie and steam games to play is "Don't Starve." My friends and I always describe it as "Minecraft on steroids" because it's essentially a survival game that becomes increasingly difficult to play. Here are some introductory points for those who haven't heard of it before.

You get to pick one of the following characters:

Wilson- The Gentleman Scientist

  1. From game descriptions, he grows a magnificent beard. However, there's not really a pro or con to him as he usually is the vanilla character that everyone is forced to start with in "Don't Starve," but in "Don't Starve Together," you can choose any character.

Willow: The Fire Starter. 

She's immune to fire damage and comes with a lighter that allows you to roast food. Fire helps her sanity but when she goes insane, she can drop down her teddy bear which can grow to an immense size and kill the shadow creatures, spawned from her insanity.

Wolfgang: The Strongman

My very favorite. His strength and health increase as his hunger increases. He can go up to 300 hunger and 300 health. The average character has around 150-200 health/hunger.

Wendy: The Bereaved

She is usually the pick for most beginners as her strength and health are lacking but her pro is that she has a sister in the form of a ghost that can protect her from mobs. She spawns the ghost by dropping her flower and killing something in front of the flower. As soon as she kills the creature, the flower awakens as a ghost which follows her around and gives her sanity.

WX-78: The Soulless Automaton

His motto is "EMPATHY MODULE NOT RESPONDING." It can eat spoiled foods and it would have the same benefits and unspoiled foods and it can also upgrade with gears. It starts out with 100 health, sanity, and hunger but it can potentially increase all the way to 400, making it the most overpowered character in the game. Unfortunately, gears are hard to come across in this world and it would need around 20 gears to get to that level. Furthermore, dying in the game would make it lose many of its upgrades. On another note, WX-78 is supercharged by lightning but damaged more heavily by rain than other characters.

Wickerbottom: The Librarian

She's known to be the only character that can't sleep at night so it's difficult taking care of sanity as this character as well as health and hunger because she takes a lot of damage from food that isn't in pristine condition. It's usually good to team up her and WX-78 in a play-through.

These are just some of the characters but the game has so many more fascinating ones to come.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

For those long nights that turn into mornings when the struggle is real.

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays. It's the worst time of the year, but the best because after finals, you get to not think about classes for a month and catch up on all the sleep you lost throughout the semester. But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.
