Before You Play 'Don't Starve,' Read Up On These Characters

My friends and I always describe it as "Minecraft on steroids."

'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.

Today I'm going to be talking about the characters from "Don't Starve." I made the first part of this madly long list of characters in the past so if you want to see what other characters are available, feel free to check that article out!

Woodie

His character description is, "Has a lovely ax. And a terrible secret. Is thankful for bountiful harvests." What this actually means is that Woodie comes with his own ax but he also comes with a meter with how much logs he can chop. If he chops too much, he becomes a were-beaver where he is ultimately immune to most things but it also comes with many downfalls. After returning to his normal self, he will have very little sanity and health remaining. So be careful of who you provoke!

Wes

His character description is, "Can't talk. Has trouble staying alive. Practices balloonomancy." What this is trying to say in a nice way is that Wes is the worst character in the game. I'm not even kidding. Unfortunately, poor Wes comes with no benefits and only cons. He can make balloons but can hurt himself if he pops them. He also gets hungry faster than others and is weaker than most of the other characters as well. Don't pick him unless you really want a challenge.

Maxwell

His character description is, "Is dapper, but frail. Can split his mind into pieces. On a first-name basis with the night." Maxwell is the only character whose name doesn't start with a W and it doesn't just end there. His own character history is so interesting as he is the original character to have been trapped in the caves and required the help of other characters to get him out. In terms of character analysis, he can split his sanity into actual characters where he can help do work for him like fight on his behalf, mine rocks, or chop trees. His downside? Insanely low health. Just to give you an idea, Wigfrid has 200 health and Maxwell has only a whopping 75. Many mobs deal health damage of 15-25 so be careful as Maxwell.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
