They've removed the ability for Abigail's flowers to despawn into regular flowers all together, so no more Abigail Sanity Stations, which were initially nerfed/balanced out to what they were before. RIP

Very Nice Tiny Detail in Wendy Animation
Didn't notice this the first time I watched the animation (the tears already starting to form in my eyes probably made it harder to see), but I wanted to point out this tiny bit of animation, when Abigail reaches up to feel the flower in her hair. She's just seen Wendy pull a flower out of her hair, and she feels around for the other one that she now has reason to believe might be there. When she reaches for it at first, she misses, because she can't see it because it's on her own head.
Then she finds it. I just think that's a very real moment that easily could have not been included in the animation at all, and I like it a lot, and I wanted to point it out.

Problems with the latest game update
Until the day before Wendy's update I played DST every day, on a "huge" server, with caves and 48 mods. The game slowed me down occasionaly, but most of the time I was able to play very well. I also specify that I don't have a particularly powerful computer.
After the update, the server no longer started in any way. I found myself forced to cancel it, with great regret.
I decided to create a new server, "huge", with caves and 40 mods. It failed to load.
I tried to create another server, "small", with caves and 40 mods.
It failed to load.
I tried to create another server, "huge", with caves and just 20 mods.
It failed to load.
I tried to create a last server with all the default settings, with caves and without mods. It started after a considerable waiting time, when before, without mods, the servers load almost immediately.
What happened to the game? Why does it suddenly seem to have become so heavy and under-optimized? What has changed Wendy's update so drastically? I find it absurd to have had to delete my world and not be able to play for the Wendy update anymore. I am not playing an early access game, these are things that should not happen.
Edit: I know that the archery mod no longer works after the last update, in fact it was the first mod that I removed. But the server was no longer starting anyway. But not because error messages appeared, but precisely because it seemed to suddenly become too heavy for my computer to load.

[Archive] GetNerfedOn's Poll Library
Hello, everyone!
So here is a collection of the polls I have taken over the course of the previous year until now and further beyond. I am leaving the links here such that information on said polls may be used in the future, as I feel that said information may be of great use, being that it was a gauge of its' respondents' choices at the time.
DISCLAIMER: Do note, however, that said information may be outdated, the sample sizes may be too low to make accurate judgments, and new trends may have arisen as of late. If the lattermost option is in occurrence, do feel free to PM me a request for polls. While said information may be useful to gauge community response, that does not mean it is not subject to change/conclusive.

Let us choose Bernie/Abigail skin
It would be really really nice QoL fix to allow us the option of freely changing the Bernie/Abigail skin while in game, for those of us who have alternative skins. Or let us be able to choose which skin to start out with in the character select menu. It's really frustrating to have to use resources and time to make a completely new Bernie/Abigail just so we can use the skin that we would like, especially since I don't usually need to make a new one, so letting us choose the skin we start out wiht for these companions would be really awesome and so much more convenient and allows us to actually use the skin we like more often. (This could also be applied to Willow's lighter skin - these items that we dont usually make more than one of for a while.)

Showing off your outfits [2]
Hi all. The old topic was archived in early 2017, but I thought it'd be a good idea to bring it back. There have been a ton of content since and quite a bit of skins. Personally I really enjoyed the Victorian collection but others were good as well. Well, if you got any cool outfit sets you wish to share - post it here!
I'll start

Bee queen wendy guide
5 beekeeper hats, 30 pierogi, 1 Hambat, 5 spectral cure-all (4 maybe)
Pros: no arena preperation, easy crafts, less then a stack of healing food.
Cons: Active pipspook assisting, death of abigail in-battle can lead to failure.
Looks like the wendy abigail rework is quite op
heal yourself only if you can get killed by the bee queen in the next attack but make sure if she will call grumble bees in her next move so you dont die.
make sure abigail has the agro on the grumble bees. heal her at 300 health by applying the spectral all-cure on the flower or onto herself if she is next to you.
if the bee queen is screaming to boost the grumbles make sure you are attacking the bee queen and abigail being next to you at the same time.
Edit: pasted as link instead because i cant watch it somehow here.

Klei, can you make a meat effigy skin?
The meat effigy is my favourite structure in the whole game, unfortunately it did not receive any skins. Please Klei, make a skin for the meat effigy.

Pipspook - Dead Child
I was thinking about Pipspooks. This is smaller and friendly version of normal ghost.
Pipspooks seem to be child junging by its "haircuts". They also look for different toys.
I think they are children (much younger than Wendy) from normal World and they was trapped in Constant (probably) by Maxwell and killed by monsters/starvation etc. Now Wendy is the youngest living survivor.
And this is the part of biggest theory: Constant saw lots of people, both young and old but survived only "special" persons like Wendy because she has acces to "other side". Everyone else was killed.

Paths that klei opens and we just follow [daydream]
Although many of us suggest many things, we only know what is possible when klei does this.
But these things are not essential to any rework.
When klei gave Wormwood and Wagstaff a tab. (I thought everyone could have one too, but it wasn't like that, although Wikerbotton has had one for a long time).
And when right-clicking was actually implemented with Wheeler and Wortox.
Now, Wendy can communicate with Abigail using the Flower. Will Maxwell command his puppets through the Codex Umbra?
Thoughts?
↧
Character-less portraits?
I would love to see the portraits for skins without the characters. Seeing the new Hand-me-down/nostalgic Wendy portrait, it looks like her parasol is there. I'd love to see all the skin portrait frames without the characters.
↧
Unknown Character Tactics
A lot of the activities you can do in Don't Starve Together with characters are mostly obvious, but some of the perks the characters have can be used in different ways, such as Wormwood hitting Abigail while wearing bramble husk for a small and nearly useless amount of extra damage (I did this before rework, might now work much less effectively, since wormwood would take much more damage,) or using Maxwell's shadow miners to clear out sea stacks (works in current update, tested.) I know my Wormwood strategy is weak and unnecessary but the Maxwell tactic is purely QoL as it clears out the ocean and also mines salt easily. Anyone else see anything significant yet less known across the DST community?

On topic "Tips on how to be Courteous to Fellow Players"
Hello fellow Forum Members! Those of you who've been around for a while probably remember this topic made by @MenaAthena:
It was pinned for quite a long time, however, it has been removed some time ago, I guess in the last year at some point.
I really liked the tips Mena gave, they can be the backbone of a healthy and friendly community. I (still) play quite often on public survival servers with random players of every skill level and these tips are still very actual. "Don't ask where the Base is Right After Joining" (a classic, heh 
), "Don't Pick Everything", "Don't Enter in Winter or Summer" or "If you don't want Strangers, set a Password" are some of the most important and relevant ones and my favourites (in fact, there's been a rant on the latter topic on steam lately (again)).
Does anyone know why this topic got un-pinned? Maybe because it got archived? I think it is still worthy of being on the top of the general forums, so that new players can find it as well. Could we get it back in some way?

Forged Forge: what do new characters do and how should they be used?
Last night I tried to use Warly in the Forge: unfortunately I did not understand how he was used, and in the end I kept beating with the hammer for the whole run. What are the chef's hat and crock pot for? What does Wormwood? And all the others new characters?
