I survived 4 years in Rimworld... here's what happened 

Ah Rimworld my favorite story generated game, one where you can thrive with Marine Armor by day 1 or be mutilated by a mad turtle, you can spend WEEKS on a colony I can tell this will be a journey lmao

A non-violent pawn seems to always become the backbone of any colony. In my current playthrough I have a chef/doctor named Trey, and the colony wouldn't still be standing if it wasn't for him.

The nostalgia hit hard with this one. I loved the original series and re watched it a few times in the past. Rimworld really has an infinite amount of stories that can happen

that was really fun to watch, great story telling! looks like the turning point was the mega spider invasion, it all went to hell from there.

Unironically I wanted to cry at the end, I was so invested in the story and it was phenomenally done

The ending tore me up 🥹 Also, one thing to consider when Pawns are bleeding out in the field is you can treat them right there on the spot - just enough bandaging of one or two major wounds so they can survive the rescue trip back to a hospital bed 🏥

This was so fun to watch! I rarely think of this game as a story generator, but when it's narrated and edited like this, I can really see it. I hope you do another series like this soon.

What an amazing video man, I was intending to put it like a background noise while i study, but the storytelling is so freaking good that i'm now watching this whole piece.

This was my first time seeing Hotdog's adventure. That was such a beautiful and harrowing tale. You've got a great capacity for storytelling! Did Hotdog's adventure ever continue? 🥺

Cool supercut! I think I liked the slower pace of the original series, but I still enjoyed this and rewatching the story of hotdog and the others. Also, the rock version of that one usually chill rimworld song was awesome. That cutscene at the end was really cool too... nice foreshadowing! I'm excited to see what's to come.

This is amazing! I played Rimworld for a bit around 2017 or so but Oxygen Not Included already filled my needs for a colony survival game so Rimworld got put on the shelf. I was watching the streamer Grubby and Rimworld won his community weekly game vote. I remembered I owned it and watched a couple youtube vids and then this video got recommended to me. After watching it I've found new passion and have been playing for 4 days straight!

Its so great watching this series again but in a movie format! I can't believe it was 4 years ago. Its what got me into rimworld in the first place. Thank you!

loved the story telling on this! i hope to see more like this.

Yet another stellar video! :O Man, I've watched your Kenshi playthrough and it was a delight. This one is nothing less. Amazing work!

Please do more of these, this was amazing and the narration along with the pictures strewn throughout really added to the story vibe of it

Your story telling is sooo good! After watching the first couple of minutes and seeing how “everyone felt guilty because they brought her into this, and she died because of it…life was hard in this rimworld.” I already know this is gonna be a fire video

I love the artwork and storytelling. This is my favorite way to watch people play games. Love it! Great job and thank you.

This Video Was... Fantastic! The Storytelling Was Perfect, And I Loved The Foreshadowing! Can't Wait To See What Happens Next!

This is going to be my most favourite video on rimworld thanks to u

Good job, bro. I love the last movie you made was so beautiful, and you have an amazing voice, bro 👍

You earned yourself a new subscriber here bro! Very good editing and very good story telling. If you don’t mind I just wanna make a small suggestion. Maybe on the next part you can get into more of the fine details of the story. I loved it when you went into the reasons two colonists fell in love. Just maybe more of the “hot dog got shot in the shoulder” or “Lee made fun of Hot dogs nose” or some crap like that. CANT WAIT FOR THE NEXT PART!!!

Hey, I just found your channel, and this is some quality Rimworld content. Keep up the good work!

man, this video inspired me to get this game, and WOW its so fun, if youu ever do any more of these, it would make my year to be featured as a colonist!

Idk if anyone has mentioned this but it’s better to just turn off your coolers and heaters then to dismantle them. Saves you components and time. Oh and if you put a wall between each turret then when they explode it won’t cause the neighbouring ones to have a chain reaction.

Dude, this video is literally ART! 👍👍👍

Found a real hidden gem of a channel. Not over edited with “funny” sound bits and memes, half lets play half story, and never a dull moment. Can’t wait for the next series to watch . You Inspired me to do my own let’s play man, hopefully mine would be as half as good as yours!

Nice to see another rimworld video! I do hope we get to see more in the coming future. Always a relaxing game to watch

This series is how I found your channel. I'll love to watch this remake of it.

Hotdog became the man in black. Gone to save another group like the previous man in black. It’s an endless cycle.

Fantastic upload! Great job my friend! Very entertaining. SUBSCRIBED!

What a fantastic video. Incredible storytelling! I really feel bad for hotdog after everything he went through!

Just the thumbnail hypes me up, the video, is even better!

I love that cinematic with the FTL ship... very nice reference

really nice series interested in how hotdog's story will turn out wondering if we get to know how the last 2 will be featured again or not asking if I could possibly be in the series

The quality of this video is much better than ones i've seen from youtubers 100x your sub count. A definite sub from me, cant wait for more.

Loved the video! If you have room aboard, I'd love to be a colonist next time!

I literally love this I thought it was gonna be boring at the start but then it became super interesting

I like the story was so fun at start and sad at the end it's really hard to lost true friends at the battlefield. I would like to wait for the other series 😊

Love the use of the Kestrel from FTL for the transport ship. Always felt that if just scaled up a bit size wise, FTL ships would fit surprisingly well with Rimworld's style.

Nice to see this again. It has been so long, I forgot everything that happened

"We don't talk about New Raleigh 1.0"

This effort in this video is amazing

Wow, this was really good.

Hotdog.. you lived though so much and lost so much he is a man of many tales .. stay safe out there hotdog.. all the ones who passed away are all ways watching over .. hopefully we all get to see you on your adventures.. stay safe stay strong…

Hotdog.. the man with no desire to kill, fends off hordes of invaders while watching all of his close friends succumb to raiding parties and Insectoids one by one.. the man who dresses in black, is a lone wanderer, finding someone in need of protection. He comes in the time of need and becomes the Man in Black

It’s crazy the game writing the story so perfectly especially after the bug infestation with everything crazy and people dying you could really feel that hoff was angry at hotdog for not being able to fight and letting his friends die

I want to see more of this. I want to know how Hotdogs Story goes on. A few of his friends got kidnapped. Imagine finding them and get reunited with at least a few of his friends. :O

Hoffs story was just stellar and heartbreaking

Wow this is a masterpiece, i just started playing the game myself and i found this video entertaining and helpful! i would love to be in one of the videos

Ah, the classic infestation. I lost my biggest colony to one a while back. Actually it was the guy using an incendiary grenade launcher to clear the infestation that did it…

16:56 17:24 he buried his father next to the bandits they killed lol! I got to admit this was fun to watch, a great story narration added makes this video more engaging.

At 13:35 Where the fallout hits you could just build a roof over the intire village and to the mountain and you are completely safe

Reminds me of 'The Last Hope' series. Looking forwards!

oh man this is just too good

love the story telling!

Well this was depressing, great video! Would love to see more rimworld

We need part 2!

Love this story telling ❤

eyyy I remember this. Great to be back in the story again.

Suggestion for a challenge, go download the alpha gene mod on the workshop (requires the biotech dlc btw) and create a germline in which there is the gene unstable mutation (catastrophic), then try to survive, good luck bc it ll activate up to 10 random genes for 1 day, can be good, can be bad, can be horrible, I have played once with the more calm version of the gene, pretty chaotic

I want a fravatars daughter origin story. What caused her to turn down such a dark path? What kind of father was he? Could things have been different if he was a better father? Was he redeemed by sacrificing himself to the bugs?

Just started the video and i see a FTL reference! You have good taste, i have high hopes for the video 😄

RIP fravatar he was the goat 😭

Amazing, i cry at the end :`)

I love these movies truly a highlight of my days

Can you make a video of the seed and where you placed your base? I really want a mountain base in that area

im new to rimworld, i am doing one of my first successful brutal and naked runs at the moment. Made the mistake of trying to recruit 3 people at once, with only one person. I was struggling for a minute, then right before i recruited one of them, a warg bit my big toe and another off as i ran away to my trap! god i love this game

I like the art its really neat!

I think I like the story aspect of the game plays. But as for switching out heater and air conditioner, you don't actually have to because if it reaches the temperature it wants, then it wont be in high operations anymore. In other words you can leave AC and heater on in the same room, throughout the year and it will kick on what it needs to, and kick off when it doesn't need to.

Can anyone name the food on the top left corner? The icons looks more distinct and shows a drop down menu.

FrAvatar was going crazy with that knife

Subscribed! I’m working hard to create a compelling “Rimworld Movie”. I love this style, I’ll share it soon!

that was the saddest thing i have ever seen. But it will continue right? It was the greatest story i have ever seen

That's an amazing video! Could you please share which mods you're using???

Hotdog is basically Desmond doss from hacksaw ridge

this is insanely good, Fravatar was my favourite character

pixel rookie and kruggsmash are my favorite channels

I really like the narrative style of the video! Narrating the game like a story is really entertaining. I just want to give a few tips real quick: 1. Fertile soil is darker then normal soil, while stony soil appears to be gravely. Fertile soil grows crops 30% faster, while stony soil grows 30% slower, unless you're growing potatoes, in which both ends are less effective. Check the bottom left of the screen for more info about a tile. 2. You can have multiple researchers. It'll effectively double your research speed, which is very important for getting gear for combat if you're playing on a high difficulty. 3. Walls are the best cover, then sandbags, then barricades. You should try to always have your people behind walls, although this does take a lot of building and planning. 4. You don't need to recruit every single colonist. Try to recruit only those that have the skills that you need or will need soon. For example, if a farmer died, try to recruit those with a high plants skill. 5. If someone misses a shot, there's a chance that shot will hit another person within a 1x1 grid where they were aiming. So spreading out colonists is useful to avoid misses, and to avoid friendly fire. Friendly fire cannot happen with your own colonists within four tiles. 6. Sterile tiles (steel tiles, silver tiles, and sterile tiles unlockable with research) increase research speed when placed inside research labs, decrease infection chance inside hospitals and reduce the chance of pawns cooking meals that give food poisoning when placed inside kitchens. 7. As you're entering melee combat often with ranged units, you should know that ranged units can shoot while in melee, but not at enemies directly next to them. So, if pawns shoot raiders next to them instead of gun bashing those next to them, it'll clean up raids faster. Now for some more cheesy tips. These aren't fun for everyone but you may as well know you have the option: 1. Colony wealth. So raids are based on how much total wealth you have, thus meaning being too rich means you get attacked too much. This means destroying expensive goods makes sense. However, to some people this is very much not fun, and can be mostly ignored unless you're on a 500% threat scale game. Keep it in mind if you're being attacked too much. 2. Pawns cannot stand on sandbags, barricades, chunks and other objects like those. Basically, you can make your funnel more expensive by putting sandbags on the edge of walls so they can't use it as cover. This is getting into killbox territory (areas which exploit pathfinding and other Rimworld mechanics used to kill raiders very easily), which some players hate, and others love. Do whatever you find fun of course, but if you find minmaxing defenses fun, give it a try. 3. Nutrient paste exists. I honestly hate it a lot, but some people swear by it, and for good reason. It is however much more efficient then cooking, and pawns eating it cannot get food poisoning. Useful if you don't have a good cook, don't have a lot of food, or don't care enough to cook meals. 4. Setting work priorities in the work tab is very useful. Setting everyone's bed rest to a priority of "1" means that they'll always rest while they would be working to recover from injuries, or gain immunity from diseases faster. Lowering some priorities means less people will do less work of a specific type, but also that will mean a few people will do specifically more of one type of work, thus gaining more experience. For example, having only a few crafters will make the few more highly skilled, and thus produce higher quality items. I hope these help! Enjoy learning too much about a silly little game! Rimworld is one great game that has a very barebones tutorial. I'd recommend watching some other RU-vidrs if you want to learn even more. Knowing niche mechanics does come in handy. Have fun!

Hey man loved your video, also are you using a previous version? If yes, why?

By far the best rimworld story 👍

It gets worse when you realize that he is the main antagonist of the story for he is the reason of every loss on the story...

How are you so bad yet so good at the same time? big fan man! keep up the good work!

Were you using any mods here? That bit in the video where you dug through the other hill and "exposed" the other side? Did that expand the map? Or was it because it was all a mountain or something? And was the map size bigger than normal too?

God damn how much Hoff had go through. Like every day he has something thats wrong with him xD

Dramatic series! But you really need to place your turrets in the front! Or you can just place your tamed animals at the entrance of your base!

Subbed btw. Your narration and storytelling is worthy. Keep it up dude! Edit: shpellin. Durnd orto kurktt!😮

Smonk’s return would be legendary

FTL ship at the beginning is just hilarious

great job!! loved it! By any chance do u have the name of the seed?

This is really cool so far! (Year 1) do you think you'll do another like this?

The game is intentionally killing the lovers

I’m just honestly surprised that Hotdog, the colonist who is incapable of violence, managed to survive for so dang long

i love this video, its so well put together, it tells a story with artworks. such a cool idea!

I like to imagine that Mordecai from regular show playing this game

Love the ftl ship

Just saw this popped up, gonna comment before watching and comment after.

🔥🔥🔥 I would love a new rim world series.

Wow, you randomly appeared in my feed. The narrative was compelling. The impending disasters were relentless. Can you pinpoint a moment when you thought it would all go to hell? Was it your difficulty settings?

A good tip for not losing as many men as you did, if a colonist is drafted, they can tend to a wounded person on the spot, while ineffective and slow, it can stop you from losing somebody.

That's cool how Fravatar ended up being this guy who would hunt people down.
