Among Trees - Wood If I Could 

Jon: *picks up a well-known edible mushroom* Also Jon: "Flowers"

Don't eat anything Jon has picked in a forest, also now I wonder if Claire has ever received a dozen mushrooms from Jon.

“I can chop down trees, I have an infinite supply of wood!” ...I don’t know if Jon understands how deforestation works

Only Jon could turn the first 5 minutes of a chill forest exploration game into that scene from The Revenant.

Jon: "I need to go North." Jon walks directly towards the dawning sun.

Nice, someone turned down the snow slider and up the chill slider on The Long Dark 😂

As a mushroom enthusiast, I found Jon's immediate categorisation of one of the most well-known mushroom species as "flowers" hilarious! Also, I would never, ever eat any mushroom uncooked, even chanterelles. That's a surefire way to spend the night in the bathroom, talking to the porcelain god... Even edible mushrooms are actually fairly tough on the stomach and should be cooked for at least 7-10 minutes.

Episode 12B How to recognize different trees from quite a long way away NO. 1 'THE LARCH'

[sees eye icon] Bear. [jon keeps rambling, walking on] Bear! [jon continues] BEAR

So it's basically the Long Dark but nice instead of scary? Also, game you should play, the Long Dark. Makes you understand why all of human history has been an attempt to get as far away from nature as possible.

Another survival game that makes another of the cardinal sins. Forcing the player to rearrange their inventory with the inventory in the house IN the house. Just include everything in the house inventory when crafting and stop making the player do meaningless inventory management for things that are already there. Or allow for each crafting station to have its' own inventory slots that allow you to put the food with the cooking station and the crafting materials in the crafting bench. Inventory juggling IS NEVER compelling game-play.

Okay, I need a game with Bear Submarines. This needs to be a thing.

So, while your seeing an "eye" as a warning, a bear would see a nose and his nose is 100 times more sensitive than yours. If you can smell something at 1 meter away, a bear can smell it at 100 meters. Honest.

Before I hit play! "I had my eye in this for a while." I'm putting all my chips on this being said in under a minute.

I prefer The Long Dark for that kind of thing. You can make it very hard, it also has a Zen mode though, either way in summer when its to hot IRL, it makes you feel a lot cooler if you see the canadian wilderness with all the snow and ice caverns

"We need to go north!" proceeds to go straight east...

Food is going to be an issue... Doesn’t pick up food items...

Gonna be honest this looks like every other"survival/crafting" game out there with basically nothing to differentiate it from the sea of samey games. Nice video as always Jon.

Offer the bear honey and befriend it, find Piglet and you and the bear can have bacon.

Seems like a peaceful version of the Long Dark but with Firewatch's ascetic. Sounds great!

'Jute' is a fabric. You should be familiar with it from shopping bags and the like...

"beeline back to the house" Glorious.

I'd assumed the eye was an indicator for when you put on The Ring.

As much as I liked this, it annoys me that Jon played this pretty much ASAP when he's consistently and continuesly put off playing The Long Dark for YEARS!

He's taunting us by playing games similar to "The Long Dark" but not actually playing "The Long Dark". Why won't you play "The Long Dark" Jon? Why do you hate me? Play "The Long Dark". I've been waiting for you to try "The Long Dark" for so long. That's "The Long Dark", dark that is presumably long. "The Long Dark".

A bear, I immediately heard skyrim. THE BEAR IS STILL AROUND! THE BEAR IS STILL AROUND!!!

It's the Long not-so Dark :p

Normal human fears when around water: sharks, crocodiles, piranhas Jon: *BEAR* *SUBMARINE*

Being as ancient as I am, this seems like an update on Robinson's Requiem from 1994 or so. Maybe you should give that a go, though it was brutal.

"Bear submarine"...isn't that a crocodile?

It would be really nice to see more of that!

@33:00 ish "aha, I have an infinite supply of planks" beautifully summing up how humanity fail to understand and thereby ruin the environment ;-)

This game looks so fun. Love it...plus owl sculpture

I think the hunger went down due to all the running as well as the ax swinging, but I'm not sure.

Jon has clearly not heard of Bearer Bonds.

Jon needs a chill game? Like I’m pretty sure we all do. So no Fallout 4 YOLO run this year, as that will not be chill.

This sort of thing is exactly my jam. If I can get Epic to play nice with my SteamLink + projector setup, this will be the perfect chillout game for an evening on the sofa.

"As long as the eyes not present, we'll be fine" isn't that basically half the plot of LOTR?😂

Loved walking in the woods with you :-)

Can't wait for the Bear Submarine update.

Episode 12B 'How to recognise different types of trees from quite a long way away.' NO.1 The Larch

Grizzly bears can run at speeds up to 35mph... Hide Jon!

🎶Over there, look it's Mr. Bear...🎶

Obligatory, "please play The Long Dark" comment. Also, if you enjoy beautiful survival crafting games, I also definitely HIGHLY recommend "The Forest". Allows for building things more free-form. The normal game mode, however, is scary as *flip* so you could play on "Vegan Mode" to not deal with all the.... horrors. Although, I will say, it has some of the absolute most creepy and unnerving enemy AI I've seen in any game. It's brilliant.

I love this, I hope there will be more soon 😁

A fantastic and very intricate game

So it's Journey but in the forest, with survival mechanics. So pretty!

I hope you revisit this once it's finished. I'd love to see how it turns out.

this looks like the long dark but pleasant.

Anybody else say "I've had my eye on for a while" along with Jon or just me?

Oh yes, Monty Python prepared me to find that specific resin.

for some reason, this reminds of this game i saw an ad for recently. i don't really remember most of it but i think it was a 3d side scroller and one of the scenes showed the main character girl helping some troll underneath a bridge by pulling a sword out of its leg. does anyone know the game im talking about ?

Wohoo, another half finished game being released. I guess everyone buying early access games for so long has told the devs its alright. Jon, can you play a finished game next? Not half of a game that we are certain you will never revisit upon full release in X amount of years. Yea, Im throwing shade. Love you guys! stay safe!

It's just Subnautica in the woods.

Jon thinks of eating mushrooms. Hopefully they're the nondeadly or hallucinogenic kind.

Ever played The Long Dark, Jon? Same sort of game

It feels weird seeing some of the same mechanics I'm so familiar with from Subnautica happening mostly in two dimensions. I suppose I shouldn't be surprised, survival mechanics are pretty widely shared; but it does feel odd. In that vein, I think someone has had plenty of time as a power-tripping apex predator in Manhunter and needs to take another trip into the water...

Man I honestly think Firewatch is still one of my all time favorite narrative focused games of all time, maybe a favorite favorite hard to say. Favorites, Dark Souls for the superb melee combat and challenge, first DS for best map design the chills going down the shortcut from the bell tower to firelink.... the chills, Supreme Commander FAF for RTS although I came upon it relatively recently and the classic Stronghold 1 and Crusaders, Age of Empires 2, Starcraft and god damnit a game they need to do a iso not 3D remake and expansion of Netstorm which was so fricking good I hate it cause I like them all so much for different things. Team Fortress 2 and pre Sombra Overwatch (only character I liked after Anna was Ashe, Sombra I can deal with but having the drop on anyone under half health being able to see them through walls is still dumb) now mostly just TF2 if they fucking fix the bot invasion. Arena Brawler, first Smash Bros, still has my favorite movement and fighting, although Brawl won me over a bit. Pokemon? Red duh cause it matched my gameboy pocket color which I still have somewhere around 20 years later and still works, though I did rather enjoy Ruby. Grand Strategy is a bit of a weird one cause I'm just dumb and bad at them and lose interest at a certain level of things I need to control such as managing 10 provinces, not to bad. 50 nope, but Dominions 5 caught my attention as the most interesting and willing to learn even though I wish I could do Stellaris so bad. Survival builder, I hate to say it but still Minecraft, I've played so many and liked so many but if u just want to chill and plop blocks into a house and shit yep. Card game? MTG. Tabletop, D&D, although I wish I can afford and had the time and someone who new how to play Warhammer 40k and Fantasy, 40k has my favorite books, lore and overall universe and it pains me cause I love Starwars so damn much but a World Eater would pull Darth Vaders head out of his ass turning him inside out with one power armored gauntlet.... scratch that unarmored yeah probably that too. Indie is a bit hard cause its a mighty inclusive genre, Dwarf Fortress/ Caves of Qud both grand in scope and literally generating stories out of nothing only 2 guys making either of them honorable mention Cataclysm DDA and thats it cause I can put like 50 here. RPG, I hate to say it but Fallout 3 or NV they were just a few of my first couple real ones and they sure as hell kicked it off but god I hated 4. Funny story me and my friend were playing Fallout 3 and I was like OMFG this is amazing, obviously years and years ago I was maybe a freshman in highschool and now am 28, and I shit you not said how fucking amazing this would be with knights, swords and shit. He was like not only does that game exist its called Oblivion and its made by the same people, insert Eric's super nova mind explosion gif here. Fuck 4, fuck getting power armor handed to you like your damn 2 years old playing the elmo n64 game I want to earn that shit and want to force feed Todd Howard, Preston Garvey, so shit shits shit. Buttons on buttons screw you Todd I was so excited and I was never let down so hard. GTA? Vice City baby, San Andreas was good too, did you know they got rid of blowing up vehicles in later games by shooting the gas cap cover... dumb. It was so fun to have 5 stars with my bro driving a motorcycle at max speed while I snipe gas tanks. Halo 2 for multiplayer (fucking tower of power and shotty snipes, 3 was pretty good too, CE for best intro to flood. Mass warfare fps? Classic Star Wars Battlefront 1&2. Most addicting trainwreck of my mind and sanity survival thing? Factorio, god damn Factorio I don't know anything I've loved and hated so much at the same time. Anyways.... yeah I cant watch this unfortunately if it invokes even a iota of Firewatch.

This video made me fall asleep 😴

Chanterelles are awesome

Don't worry Jon, I pick up items individually too😊(Fourms Testudo for incoming comments)🤣

Remember Jon "Don't tread on the Bear" :D

Jon, you dont have to lie. its ok to say you saw a bunch of other youtubers playing the game, or you saw it on trending and thought it was interesting etc.

I hope this comes out on switch it looks amazing and is exactly the kinda game I need after zelda master mode. Also Jon please play breath of the wild you will love it

No you can’t do this to us we want more more Jon Tell you what it is so good

Is this is the game with a lot of art and wallpapers floating around?

The bear is still around!

"...if you'll excuse the pun."...oh, Jon. You do know the audience you're playing to, right? XD

Is this gonna be pc only or for xbox as well?

Last time I was this early Benor wasn't a zombie yet.

Great video Jon

Jon how may eyes do you have because I'm getting worried?

Tried this game and really wanted to like it, but the lack of adjustable mouse sensitivity and no controller support (as an alternative) made it almost unplayable for me. I got frustrating with the sluggishness of the controls and gave up. Hopefully that will improve when it's out of early access, because it seems like the game itself has a lot of promise!

He thinks a mushroom is a flower and that you should walk right up to a beehive because the bees might be friendly. Jon should never be allowed in real nature.

So how long before this grove turns into an industrial wasteland?

Is it fair to say that most people currently don't want a quiet lonely day in the forrest but flipping big parties and stuff? PS: Who removed the survival game from The Long Dark?

This game has an odd Epic exclusivity deal. On Twitter the developer said that the game is exclusive for 15 months, which I think is longer than many other exclusivity deals. I had high hopes for the game, but Epic Games Store is an immediate turn off.

Looks like don't starve, firewatch edition

This game reminds me of No Man's Sky. Has Jon ever played No Man's Sky?

Without a Lodestone, magnet or electricity how do you create a Compass?

Hey Jon will you be doing a Stranded Deep series at some point? I play the game on PS4 and absolutely love it. Would really like to see you give it a go!

Looks okay but I prefer the style of The Long Dark, that game is awesome.

This very much has a "The Forest" feel to it. Seems like the same engine. The trees even have the same animation and sound when they fall.

has John played the Long Dark ? this looks very similar

Oooh, I love Jon doing these beautiful, chill artistic games. Mix that with survival? Well.. we'll see. *EDIT* - Immediately chooses to ignore Zen mode and play with bears. Oh, Jon, I love you.

Watch The Revinent. Shows what 🐻 do 😋

How low is the mouse sensitivity? He seems to not be able to make a 180° turn without picking his mouse up a couple of times. It's so awkward.

"Lovely explore around the forest" This is how the vast majority of horror movies start, Jon. Do. Not. Trust them!

Zen mode sounds like tutorial mode. So naturally, Jon skips it despite knowing nothing about the mechanics of the game.

I can't take any survival game seriously that doesn't include thirst.

Please livestream this!

may i suggest uploading in 1440p? :)

Jon something tells me that you might be intrigued by the fire emblem series

No, I don’t think I will sing it

pretty minecraft

diddly diddly dee

Yes

Isnt this game made by the people who made NITW?

I'm rather sure that this game is capable of curing insomnia.
